Graphical Difference Between Xbox and PlayStation

[GeorgeCostanza16]

When I was looking at the two separate pre-order pages for Xbox and PlayStation, I noticed that on PS it says "Visual Improvements:
- Appreciate incredible high fidelity when you play on a PS5® console – including updated dirt and grass, combined with real-time physics, making for an advanced level of detail."

It doesn't say that on the Xbox pre-order page. I really prefer playing on Xbox. Are they serious here? Why would they unnecessarily hamstring Xbox graphics? Is this going to be a significant difference? I have been earning all these now and later packs on my Xbox console. Am I just going to lose them if they now force me to buy on PS instead? I just linked my PS account on TheShow.com, will those be available if I buy the game on PS if I've already been earning them on my Xbox account when PS wasn't linked?

Maybe it's on the series X but not the S?

I find it strange they wouldn't have the same improvements on XSX, but if that's the case, I guess my run with The Show is over.

Is this going to be a significant difference?

A) You are crying about something that is almost assuredly a marketing mistake
B) If it were somehow accurate, who the hell do think is going to answer that has any inside knowledge?

You think SDS doesn't triple check everything they post before it goes up, especially something like this?

I believe your packs should be tied to your MLBTS account not to the PSN/Microsoft account - if anyone who plays on both wants to chime in to correct me feel free

I think you are right...I'm just nervous I'd lose them if I earned them on 24 (Xbox), just linked PS to my The Show account today, and then bought on PS5. I have both consoles so if the graphics are really any better on PS, I'll just buy on that if there's no issue keeping those packs.

My guess would be it's enhanced for PS5 pro but regular PS5 and XSX should likely be pretty much the same.

Correct. Packs are cross systems. BOUGHT stubs are not. If you buy 10k stubs on PS they won't be there on Xbox.

If that's the case, I'm done with this franchise. Not dropping $700 on a new console just to get this game to look somewhat like a current gen game.

From my experience, the game looks drastically better on the PS5.

If you mean you bought a Pro then it certainly should be noticeably better.I doubt regular PS5 and XSX will be as they typically are much the same.

That certainly is not my experience.

Is that still the case even though I didn't link PS account to The Show account until today? I'd rather not lose those packs I've already earned (and the ones I will earn in the Now and Later program) if I buy on PS this year after 24 on Xbox.

You're probably right about this. I'm in marketing myself and as such have a pretty good eye for marketing BS wording - "high fidelity" and "real time physics" hit the mark there.
