Re: 2K15 on Xbox One vs. PS4 - Pros and Cons

I have been playing on PS4. To continue the discussion, I still think xbox one may play a little bit smoother though I have messed with game speed and I think I have found a sweet spot at 48 speed. At this point I cannot even get online at all, but when I can I will give info on my experience with that side of it. I made another video, I have switched to 2k camera, and enjoying it.

In this video at the start you will see Pippen making a shot, again I am amazed at how well the game animates the character. I am having a blast playing, I guess that is the most important thing.

Anyone who owns X1 version or both care to give opinion on video? Nomah and Andy, are you still liking the experience on X1?

Again, for video make sure you change it to 720p. Thanks for feedback.

Thanks for the update - loving it on Xbox One so far and if I didn't know that PS4 potentially has better graphics, I would not be thinking twice about it to be honest. I've been going back on the Smartglass app looking at my recorded vids and checking out Nomah's as well which has been a nice added bonus to my experience on X1.

I still have this lingering urge to see if the graphics are really SO much better, but in terms of the feel of the gameplay, I love it on X1.

Awesome, I will be switching soon if patch doesn't fix a lot on ps4. Did you watch video i made from ps4? Thoughts?

Just did Calm, and I know I am going to catch some heat for this, but I think I prefer the Xbox One washed out look more. I don't see a major difference here to be honest, a little brighter and maybe slightly better sweat on Jordan especially. Not enough to make me switch controllers or away from Xbox Live...

No reason you should catch heat. This thread has really been a good mix of people posting their thoughts on both systems. I agree that the controller feels better, I like the rumble better, and Xbox features. I forgot about smart glass. You are right, just a little more polished, richer on ps4. I prefer graphics and that is all right now. Frustrated with psn. I have been having a blast offline in quick games.

Yeah, I think if it was photo-realistic on PS4 I'd switch but for a little more polish, I think I'll think with X1. If a copy goes on sale in December/January for PS4 I'd consider getting it as well.

Already played tonight while watching NFL on tv and it's a nice added bonus.

Re: 2K15 on Xbox One vs. PS4 - Pros and Cons

I experience unsteady frame rate (X1) but only during the 4th quarter. The game plays smooth but than in the 4th hitches happen here and there. Far from unplayable but noticeable and not sure why it happens. But only happens when I do 12 minute quarters and only in the 4th. If I play a 6 minute quarter game, 4th quarter is smooth. Also when I do sim cast and jump into the 4th then it's fine.

I think this has something to do with the amount of highlights the game saves but I'm unsure. Any one else experience these hitches in the 4th?

Sounds like an issue with memory after a certain point.

There is some good info in this thread, still not sure which one to pickup.

you'll be happy with either, it's the gameplay that counts.

really boils down to controller preference vs. slight graphical edge.

I would like to add to this. From my understanding there are some issues showing up in the PS4 version right now that should be considered.
PSN has been up and down, not only with the dreaded CE error codes but PSN being just "down" on either all or partial parts of the game Also on XBOX One it will show you Player of the game after every game, regardless of length of the game you are playing. It is sparse, if not broken on PS4 if you go above 6:00 minute quarters

I am not bashing the PS4 version. I chose the PS4 version because I thought it had better graphics, I am HOPING that this next patch that comes out fixes the online issues, and the POTG issue. If I was buying right now I would wait for a patch to decide.

I'm getting frrustrated with Facescan on Xbox One. Almost making me want to get the PS4 version but then I have to buy the camera. Have you tried it out? And do you think they will fix this in a patch for Xbox? The Kinect is a better camera, it shouldn't be broken like this..

Re: 2K15 on Xbox One vs. PS4 - Pros and Cons

I can't even get face scan to work on PS4. Just keeps blinking green and red and repeating those instructions. Tried again for a half hour yesterday and still nothing.

The only reasons I would get it on Xbox one are:
a. You prefer the controllers (I personally use the energizer charge base, which I HIGHLY recommend for both systems.)
b. You prefer Xbox Live Service
c. You prefer the share service of Xbox one and Kinect.

The reasons I would get it for ps4 are:
a. Graphics are noticeably better, They are richer and more vibrant.
b. You actively use the VC system, you get 15,000 out of the box with PS4.
c. You want a larger user base to play the game on.
d. You prefer the PS4 controller (Again do yourself a favor and get the energizer charge base.)
e. You don't mind using the share button, and I have actually found it more feature rich than I thought messing around with Share Factory last night).

Things Neutral:
A. After adjusting gamespeed from 50 to 40 on PS4 the game now plays with same pacing on both systems.

Online the default game speed is 50 still though, even if you adjust it
