Has Microsoft purposely omitted game resolutions on Xbox One cases

During the era of the PS3 and the Xbox 360, Microsoft had an edge on Sony by listing that all their games included a 1080p resolution, while most of PS3 games had listed their at 720p, save for a few exclusives. Of course, to the untrained eye it might seem that Xbox 360 was the more powerful console as it was believed to be capable of producing better graphics output. The reality of that isn't actually all that great. The reason why PS3 games listed their games at 720p while the same game on Xbox 360 was listed at 1080p, was simply because the PS3 game listed its native resolution, while the Xbox 360 game listed its upscaled resolution.

Nvidia Calls The PS4 “Low End”

Competition drives innovation and trash talk in equal measure
Nvidia didn’t say much when the PS4 was announced, but today they came out swinging. During an interview with Maximum PC’s sister site Techradar, Nvidia’s Tony Tamasi claimed that, "Compared to gaming PCs, the PS4 specs are in the neighborhood of a low-end CPU, and a low- to mid-range GPU. If the PS4 ships in December as Sony indicated, it will only offer about half the performance of a GTX680 GPU (based on GFLOPS and texture), which launched in March 2012, more than a year and a half ago."

The Elder Scrolls Online To Offer 150 Hours Playtime On 1 Character


A Tamriel Foundry writer recently took to Reddit to share his experiences in The Elder Scrolls Online briefly touching on the length of time it took him to reach maximum level, which currently sits at level 50. According to the post the individual played casually over a 2-3 week period and found himself reaching level 50 after approximately 150 hours play.

Those of us a little more hardcore can expect a much faster experience though as one individual reports that they were able to reach the level cap in just 6 days of play, roughly 50 hours of playtime.

Is Xbox Live Unhackable?

At this point the PlayStation Plus service is a lot more appetizing than the Xbox Live service, or at least to the bystander. Early adopters of the PlayStation 4 already have plenty of free games to keep them entertained until the next big game comes out. The Xbox One, on the other hand, seems to be suffering from a drought. However, Xbox gamers don't seem to mind; they think the extra dosh is worth forking out for an unhackable service.

When a concerned gamer expresses his opinion on the lack of incentive to become an Xbox Live Gold member and that he feels that the service otherwise is making people pay for what would usually be a free-to-use service, he was quickly shut down with comments stating just how much they hated the PlayStation Network service and would rather spend a little extra to feel safe.
