Tom Clancy's The Division: Which is better, gaming in PC or PS4

The Division beta has been analyzed by the team at Digital Foundry, and although the console versions of the game are both visually impressive, it's looking like the PC version is where the game is at its best.

Digital Foundry discovered that if you want to run the game at ultra and retain 60 FPS, you're going to need top-of-the-line hardware to do it. However, it looks as though it won't be difficult to have a good experience if you need to scale things down.

One notable feature that puts the PC ahead of the PS4 version is the "extreme streaming distance" slider, which can prevent distant shadows and objects from popping in by loading them before they're in sight. The other two big advantages the PC boasts is higher quality shadows and more precise reflections in puddles.

Digital Foundry notes that texture quality is similar between the two versions, though the increased frame rate and tighter control response makes The Division a more enjoyable experience on PC.

The Division has already received a mod that makes it look even better than before. And if you were worried about cheating on PC making its way to the final version of the game, Ubisoft is working on a solution.
