Microsoft boasts about Xbox One 'Forza 5' 1080p resolution

4.5
Microsoft has tweeted about Forza: Motorsport 5's 1080p resolution.

After recent revelations that titles such as Call of Duty: Ghosts and Battlefield 4 run at a higher resolution on PS4, Microsoft tweeted a reminder that the Xbox One is also capable of running games at 1080p.

Responding to what has been dubbed "resolutiongate", Microsoft's Phil Spencer recently defended the console's capabilities, telling ShackNews that users "play the games, not the resolution".

Spencer also believes that "resolutiongate" will blow over at launch, and isn't concerned about the console's perceived lack of power.

Microsoft previously described Forza 5 as a "huge epic game" that runs at 60 frames per second in 1080p.

It will be available as an Xbox One launch title on November 22.

The game gives users the opportunity to race and set times on the Top Gear Test Track, and features commentary by Jeremy Clarkson, James May and Richard Hammond.

A Forza 5 Car Pass, which unlocks monthly car packs, will be available closer to launch.

Urf So if you play the game not the resolution why are they making such a big deal of it playing on 1080p? **** hypocrites.


Exactly! That's very true.


True very true, if Forza 5 is pulling 1080p then why not Ghost and Battlefield 4. Pretty slack to let these games slide by not putting the full weight of the Xbone behind them.

How many more titles are going to be this way?


1. Don't disrespect the console. It's a Xbox One not a Xbone.

2. Developing a game for one console is much easier than developing for multiple games and developing a racing game is much more simpler than developing a shooter.


Yawn. You had to be the boring one. They're hypocrites as what was said before.

doges Good to see that at least one game is going to be 1080 p :?


I could see more games being in 1080 throughout the Xbox Ones lifetime. I hope that this will be the case at least

Well hopefully all the Ps4 fanboys will shut up now, but knowing them they wont. Just goes to show which one is the better console! #Xbox One FTW!
