Are there any differences between Xbox one and PS4? What consoles have you guys played it on?

Xbox one is 900p and PS4 is 1080p. Both are at 30 fps, other than that not that much different.
I played on PS4.

XB1 is supposedly going to be bumped to 1080p on release. Not sure how much that will impact the FPS.

If I remember correctly, either PS owners will get it before Xbox or there are PS+ exclusives/incentives.

Also wondering, is cross platform in regards to generation? As in if you have an xbox one will you be able to play with friends who are playing on a 360?

There was a article on Polygon/IGN/Kotaku/Reddit (I can't recall) stating that cross platform would not work without starting all over again.

Is PS3 vs PS4 considered cross platform?

Yes, anything that is not connecting or played through the exact same format is considered cross platform.

Ah Ha! Found it, was a forbes article. Pretty sure it was a reddit post with a link to the article.

Thanks, that is really disappointing.

Next question sorry if its in the article, briefly read it at work. If you purchase the game on the 360 and xbox 1 or any other platform, is your account a single account or do you create a new account on each console? Apparently Diablo 3 is like that on the consoles?

That... Is a good question, I would think that the accounts can be transfered much like Diablo but I will have to try and find out.

Awesome thanks. I've been pretty divided on getting the next gen console, still deciding whether to just play this on the xbox 360 or get a next gen console. But if I do play it on the 360, it would be cool to still be able to play it on the same account if I do upgrade at some point.
