When the Xbox 360 and PS3 launched, the world was just making the transition to high definition TV sets. There were growing pains, and the feeling that itād be years until enough people owned one that they would become mandatory. Guess that time is now.
While the Wii U ā and letās be real, itās basically last-gen tech ā soldiers on with component output, both the Xbox One and PlayStation 4 will only output video signals via HDMI. The Xbox One specifically states that it needs a ā720p or higher HDMI-compatible TVā, while the PS4ās spec sheet says the console only outputs via HDMI.
On the downside? There are people who arenāt just going to need a new console, but a new TV. On the upside? With HD being mandatory, we wonāt get a repeat of those problems where some people couldnāt read the text in certain games.
