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.

Konviicted Guarantee the Xbox One is more powerful than the PS4. And I love Microsoft & Phil Spencer "user splay the games, not the resolution" haha


I can tell you're an xbox fanboy. Machinima, IGN, Game Informer, and Gamespot have already proven that the Ps4 is the way more powerful of the two. 1080p vs. 720p is a big difference whether they think it is or not. And I find it funny that they say you don't play resolution. That has such a huge impact on the game, so saying something like that is beyond full ****** imo.


I love that you're defending this game as if you were working for Sony.
You're just a walking marketer for them.

I wish that all companies would put this much attention to detail into their games.

If thats true we all should just go back to non hdmi in that case.


Actually no.
The Xbox One has a better video card than the Ps4.

ZENU96 Probably the most realistic racing game i've ever seen gameplay on.


Same here. Just think, the next Forza game will have even better graphics :o

Hopefully there is a lot more 1080p games being released for the console.


But is it only good for the graphics ? what if it's more like the old forza games ?


The old Forza games are amazing?
Even if it was like the old Forza Games, just with better graphics, it would still be the best racing game.

AccuAir And people say forza is bad and in popular..

This is good news!


Forza is far from Unpopular.. it is one of the most popular racing games on the Xbox at this point. It looks great in my opinion


Forza is without a doubt the best racing game ever to be released.
It's sad that it doesn't have the amount of players cod does.
