Something to note is that Battlefield 4 on PS4 is 900p not 1080p.There are already many cross platform titles that are 1080p on both Xbox One and PS4 like NBA 2k14 which runs at 60 FPS and likewise Fifa 14 at 60 FPS. Predicting the next year I'd expect the PS4 to continue having a graphical advantage until MS give developers more resources to get the best out of the Xbox One. I'd expect that next November AAA titles to be 1080p across the board. While this is going on I'd expect MS to be releasing great titles that are exclusive to XB1 like Titanfall, Quantum Break, Project spark etc (I know 2 of this are on PC but Console exclusive)

Cormack even said, that there is still lots of power and optimisation you can get out of 360/ps3. I know that Esram needs to be learned more, but we already get reports that it is not beneficial and is a pain in a hole Bottleneck. Things is that people say that gap will be smaller when ESram is learned. I still dont agree fully with this. As it would mean that PS4 optimisation will sit in a corner and wait for Esram to catch up? No, PS4 will be more optimised again. The way I look at it ( its my personal opinion, not a fact ), that from start PS4 already has a head start over Xbox one in optimisation and raw power. So the only way for it to go is up, wheres Xbox one has to do catching up at least to ps4 levels sue to "pain in a hole" architecture.

Only sony's Studios managed to get some sort of better performance, but who knows what could they have achieved if they would be working with better/friendlier to code hardware in the first place? It is poorly utilised now, but at the same time it is reported to have a lot of negatives points, which holds system back. You "Can polish a turd" if you put a lot of working hours in to it, but at the same time you can polish a material, which is a lot easier to polish to get same effects by using a lot less effort and time. Saved time gives you ability to polish more objects or do additional stuff. Now dont take it as xbox one - turd. Thats not what I am saying. Just because it is PC hardware does not mean it is already optimised. Nope its not, in fact it should be even less optimised then a proper console hardware people worked on already. Keep in mind a lot of PC games need more Raw hardware power to have same effect then Console can do. The reason is that PC hardware changes so fast and optimisation is just not an priority. Whats the point optimising the living bejaysus out of something like gtx 560 GPU, when it will be replaced 1 year down the line with newer, cheaper and more powerful GPU.

Tomb Raider should have been easier to port to the XBone than the PS4 from the PC version since they both use the same API wherease with the PS4 you need to translate it to the PS4's api. As such the XBone should have been better optimized for the port, instead we got a game with much lower FPS and slightly muddier graphics. If MS do decide to allow developers to use the GPU power reserved for the kinect for gaming, that could help alleviate some of the XBones power shortfalls, although I suspect it would be the death knell for the Kinect as a gaming peripheral outside of MS first party stuff.

It might be my initial impression but that's what I think of it so far, it's something I couldn't care less about and it needs to do more than Gears of War with a steampunk reskin to get me to take notice. So far it's failed at that. We'll see but so far if that's the best they can show off then I can't see myself getting excited about it. It doesn't help that I thought Studio santa monica's last two God of War games were below par and dull. They were pretty but ultimately a massive step back from the fun for GoW2.
