Xbox One Graphics Drivers Currently "Horrible", Says Anonymous Dev.

I haven't seen this on here, but sorry if this is old information. [quote]Anonymous developers have labelled the current state of Xbox One’s graphics drivers “horrible” and claimed the difference between both the Xbox One and PS4 is “significant” and “obvious.” In a piece about the performance differences between Microsoft and Sony’s new consoles on Edge, a number of unnamed developers have said that while the platform holders continue to refine both systems, Sony’s is currently easier to work with. According to one source, Microsoft has "been late on their drivers and that has been hurting them.” Another source says that the Xbox One graphics drivers are "horrible". It is also being reported that the PS4’s memory reads between 40-50% faster than Xbox One, and that the PS4‘s Arithmetic Logic Unit (ALU) is around 50% faster than Xbox One’s. The article says that a “platform-agnostic development build can run at around 30FPS in 1920×1080 on PS4, but it’ll run at ‘20-something’ FPS in 1600×900 on Xbox One”.[/quote] [quote]It should also be noted that, for the period following the PS3’s launch, similar accusations were made about that console, with Valve most famously saying it was “too complicated to develop for.” [/quote]

    The Ps4 will have better frame rate, better graphics, and be faster than the xbox one games wise. The XB1 will be faster with other, none gaming stuff, like their t.v. integration, multitasking, and internet. So basically, the Ps4 plays games better and faster than the XB1, while the XB1 does everything that involves multitasking and t.v. integration better and faster than the Ps4. This is what the Devs mean by saying all the stuff they have been. Example: Skyrim works horrid on the Ps3, great on the 360. If you put a game on the next gens that is like skyrim, it will probably have better frame rate and graphics,(Maybe, if the devs want to with the graphics), than the XB1, pretty much any game will work better on the Ps4. When you would search for something on the internet or channel surf,multitask, or just on live shopping for games, it will run smoother and faster on the XB1. Thats it, that's how you pretty much sum it up. To be honest though, you probably won't even be able to tell a difference between the two, of course if the devs are just over reacting, if not, then these will be noticeable.
