      It's a mystery. Seriously though, Titanfall isn't out yet on the 360 and even the Xbox One version has issues running it. I can't imagine what Watch Dogs is going to look/run like on those platforms.

      Really? The Xbox One has issues running a modified Source engine with uncompressed audio? That's a thing? Wow... Maybe Ubisoft forgot to tell us that Watch Dogs on the PS3/Xbox 360 is to be used as a companion app like Smartglass?

      Titanfall is running 792p resolution on the Xbox One with occasional framerate drops to (or near) single digits. Respawn is planning on updating the game to a higher resolution at some point for the Xbox One.

      I know about the resolution, but I didn't know there were frame rate drops to near single digits. Also unsure if people can see the difference between 792p upscaled to 1080p, versus 720p upscaled to 1080p. I do hope the 900p upgrade happens soon, because I'm sure that is noticeable difference. But dang... Frame rate drops on a modified Source engine with uncompressed audio? I mean, I know it's HD gaming, but I was kind of assuming we're in a generation designed for HD and sometimes 3D gaming.
