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

    I have found as I posted earlier that the graphics seems brighter and shinier on the 4 but almost cartoonish.

    I have the ps4 and have nothing to play on it so my plan all along was to buy 2k on the 4. I feel bad for it. I have forza nhl and madden ( bundle) on the one.

    Btw for you guys Watching a game while playing, isn't it tough to play on the reduced screen size? I'm on my couch not in front of a monitor etc.

      How do you know its brighter and shinier on the 4 if you don't have the xbox 1 2k15?

        He stated earlier in the thread he rented both versions from redbox. I have yet to see an actual side by side of xbox one vs ps4. I have searched all over the internet. If the xbox one version has inferior graphics, I mean noticeable downgrade I am going to return and get ps4 version. It is a tough call because I love the kinect "xbox record that", and I also prefer xbox live in most cases. I really wish we could see a direct comparison.

          Take a little bit but you get used to it. Playing on 55 inches though.

            Since its brighter, is it clearer and the better of the 2?

              I actually think the one looks better to me it's less cartoonish. Hard to explain. What I will do is take a pic of both in game. Give me some time and I'll do it and you will see what I'm talking about. * could be my tv settings but I've never changed the tone or input to game etc*

                Thanks Nomah, any chance of making a quick video for comparison? I am about to head to redbox to see if I can rent both and do a comparison. I am shocked there is not a comparison video made yet.

                  I think I know what you mean. I felt the same way about 2k14 having played it on both. One just felt more like a broadcast sim.

In all honestly, I can't believe how much better the PS4 version looks. The XB1 version looks dark and WAY less sharp. I mean, it's a dramatic difference. I'm not sure what that's about but this will be the 1st year I'll ever play 2K exclusively on the Playstation. I've always preferred it on xbox. I'm actually going to see if I can take it back to Gamestop and swap it for something else. If not, I'm gonna sell it.
                    I must say that I'm pleasantly suprised by how good this game looks on the PS4. The colors may be a little over saturated for the liking of some but it's a beautiful looking game. 2K shafted the Playstation last generation and didn't make the game look close to as good as the xbox version. This gen is obviously a little different. NHL 15 is the only game I'm graphically disappointed in (blurry).

                      Okay here is a youtube video of the ps4 version posted in the photo thread. Let me see if I can find a Xbox one video. Make sure to go to at least 720p and full screen for best comparison.

                      PS4

                      Here is the XBOX One.

                      *That is hard to really get an impression from. Either it was just the nature of streaming or the AA looked a little off on XBOX one.

                          Can anyone tell me the best way to capture video for xb1 and ps4 and I will go rent both and upload video?

                            It shocks me that more sites do not do a day 1 comparison of this - I feel like a lot of people want the answer to this...

                              I agree Andy. I have the xbox one version unopened. 65 dollars is not going to break the bank, but I do want to play the version of 2K15 that has the best graphics and overall experience. Digital foundry has not done any kind of comparison and I am not sure they will. They did not do one with Madden 15. LOL Okay I am just going to go rent both. I will be back with an update.

                                Here is a list of pros and cons I have made up to help guide with decisions. These are somewhat subjective and let me add, I OWN BOTH SYSTEMS and enjoy both immensely.

                                XBOX ONE:

                                PROS:

                                - Kinect (nullified if you have PS Camera) but still better with voice commands
                                - Controller has rumble in triggers (I actually enjoyed this a lot)
                                - XBOX Live: Still find this to be a better community, servers more stable, and more people use a headset)
                                - Watch NBA games on TV while playing - I do this for Madden all the time
                                - "Record That" feature great for dunks and replays

                                CONS

                                - Potentially inferior graphics (RUMOR)
                                - Smaller player base than PS4 (but this is all dependent on where your friends play)
                                - No exclusive content yet

                                PS4:

                                PROS:

                                - Potentially superior graphics (RUMOR)
                                - Larger player base
                                - Potential to invite players who don't have game via PlayShare (not confirmed)
                                - Exclusive content (timed)

                                CONS:

                                - Server issues (I still get disconnected more frequently from PSN than XBOX Live)
                                - Some have mentioned issues with analog control stick placement in combination with calling plays on the D-pad

                                Any others guys? Hope this is helpful for anyone on the fence like me...
                                Just to reiterate and for those still trying to decide which platform to get it on. I can without a doubt confirm that superior graphics on the PS4 is definitely NOT a rumor. I had the game in on both consoles switching inputs back and forth and it's not even close. The XB1's graphics look even worse than 2K14's. I'm really disappointed because I've always preferred playing on xbox (mainly for the controller) but now after playing on Playstation, it's just an eye sore.
