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.

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.

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

My bad just did a search and saw he rented both

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.

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.

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.
