    NBA 2k14 1080p vs 720p Next Gen Console?

    Curious to know that with the recent news that battlefield 4 will be native 1080p on PS4 vs upscaled 1080p on Xbox with 60 fps. And also that COD will be 1080p on PS4 vs 720p on Xbox. I'm curious if there has been any news if NBA 2K14 will have similar differences and if this is the norm. It's concerning for the Xbox because EA has an exclusive partnership with Microsoft but yet their game is crisper on the PS4. I wonder if this is the reason why NBA 2K14 continues to be shown in the PS4 instead of the Xbox when it comes to the footage we have seen. Just curious to know peoples thoughts and also just if we have heard anything from 2K about any resolution difference, "official word" not assumptions.

      Awesome thanks dude. I have both a PS4 and Xbox one preordered but was considering canceling Xbox preorder if more launch titles or titles in general kept having these differences between both consoles.

        I prefer the 360 CG, and was leaning xbox1 for NG but was waiting for more info before pre-ordering. but now im starting to lean PS4. I wish the would open the flood gates so we can get some in depth comparisons and plenty of hands on opinions. but for now all signs are pointing me towards the PS4 even though I was hoping to stick with Microsoft for the initial NG jump

          I think it's tough deciding between one or the other because there isn't really a launch title exclusive to one that makes me lean one way. The only title making men consider leaning PS4 for now is Mlb the show. But I have both preordered on store credit so not sure whether to get both or just get a PS4 and buy multiple titles.

            The XBone is capable of game resolution up to 4k, so all this 720p upscaled news doesn't worry me...there are games that will be 1080p on xbox as well...I'm thinking this has something to do with multiplayer being as lag free as possible...I'm very skeptical that the ps network will be able to handle multiplayer at 1080p...I would love to hear from the devs what they think about the next gen systems as we are going into a $500 purchase with basically a bunch of rumors and we are only 2-3 weeks away from release...

              To the OP, just a heads up but it's 900p for Battlefield 4 on PS4 and then 720p for X1, not native 1080p on PS4

                I wish had an 1080p hdtv, I have a 720p tv in my home. Sucks. Is 1080 really that much of a difference? I hear conflicting responses from people. It depends how far you sit from your tv, etc. Is this true?

                    the one that runs NBA2k the best will be my choice unless its so close that it doesn't matter. I usually go with the one my favorite sports games run best on. MLB the show would be an ice bonus for choosing the PS4 but im no where near a diehard baseball gamer. In reading between the lines, seems like a lot of the guys getting behind the scenes hands on (especially with 2k14) are breaking hard for the PS4.

                    add to that reports of the MS controller regressing while the PS4 feels more like the 360 controller. the resolution and solid frame rates imply developers are able to utilize sonys hardware better. free online, cheaper price, sleeker unit. seemingly credible rumors of the console being rushed o market, NBA 2k14 in my hands earlier lol. its all adding up for sony this go-around

                    if MS wants a shot at my money they better get on it lol because ill probably be a single console guy for a long time on this gen

                      Just a heads up TeeDogg, the PS4 online wont be free anymore. But the rest sounds about right. I got to play the XBox One and the controller did regress unfortunately.

                        Basically, no...you won't notice a difference on a 32" tv...I can start to see a difference getting up to the 50" and larger...I have a lcd rear project 60" Sony and I can tell between a blu ray(1080p) and ESPN on dtv(720p)...the graphics will be the same...all the higher resolution does is basically make it clearer as the picture gets blown up bigger...the XBONE is more than capable to run native 1080p games(4k actually), its the devs that are setting the resolution...I'm sure we will get an explaination soon...resident evil developer already said both systems are the same as far as performance...

                          I heard the rumor was that XBO that expectations of their games were to be 900p on avg and that ps4 is more capable than XBO at running native 1080p at least at this point.

                          No consoles support 4k. I don't know who told you that, but consoles do not use HDMI 2.0
                          Also, whats the difference between upscaled 1080p and native?

                          Edit: I see that they have 4k listed under specs, but devs are struggling to run 1080p on the new consoles. I doubt 4k becomes a possibility.

                          I only have a 24inch, most people tell me I won't notice a difference unless I get x Inch size. Its so conflicting. I hope my tv doesn't let me down. It was 240 bucks when I bought it 3 years ago

                            I wouldn't listen to rumors. Both consoles can run 1080p just fine. The developers choose what they want their game to run on for performance reasons. Sony and MS have nothing to do with it.

                            Microsoft’s chief of staff for devices, Aaron Greenberg explains "upscale" for those who are confused ((which is everyone))

                            Recently, it was revealed that Ryse: Son of Rome will run at a native 900p,
                            which led to quite a bit of criticism due to the fact that the game was
                            initially touted as playable in 1080p. After a bit of a backlash,
                            Microsoft’s chief of staff for devices, Aaron Greenberg stepped in and
                            noted that the Xbox One upscales all games to 1080p.

                            So, as we prepare to usher in a new era of next-gen console gaming,
                            why aren’t all Xbox One games held to a native 1080p standard?

                            “We’ve chosen to let title developers make the trade-off of
                            resolution versus per-pixel quality in whatever way is most appropriate
                            to their game content,” Xbox One engineer Andrew Goossen told Digital Foundry.

                            “A lower resolution generally means that there can be more quality
                            per pixel. With a high quality scaler and anti-aliasing and render
                            resolutions such as 720p or ’900p’, some games look better with more GPU
                            processing going to each pixel than to the number of pixels; others
                            look better at 1080p with less GPU processing per pixel.”

                            Goossen further elaborated on Microsoft’s decision to give developers
                            a choice by referencing the company’s experience with the Xbox 360.

                            “This matter of choice was a lesson we learned from Xbox 360 where at
                            launch we had a Technical Certification Requirement mandate that all
                            titles had to be 720p or better with at least 2x anti-aliasing – and we
                            later ended up eliminating that TCR as we found it was ultimately better
                            to allow developers to make the resolution decision themselves.”
                            Found this posted somewhere



                            Also I play games on my monitor its 23 inches and supports 1080p and I can definitely tell the difference even though its smaller. When I play PC games they look much better with the higher resolution. So as long as your tv supports 1080p you will get the great graphics that everyone else gets. Depends on the quality of the TV

                              In all honesty the fact that the opinion on resolution is coming from Microsoft and not a developer, I wouldn't trust that opinion. Same thing if it was coming from Sony. From my understanding both consoles are capable of 4k but again, 4k is still a bit away from being used, I mean live tv telecast are still 720p. Having 4k capability to me is like having 1080p capability in last gen, it didn't make a difference.
