Xbox One users may have been made to wait for Twitch broadcasting integration, but it appears that once it launches on March 11 Xbox One will finally have a resolution victory over the PS4.

Reddit users analysed Major Nelson’s Xbox One broadcast of PvZ Garden Warfare to discover the stream specifications of 1280×720 30 fps, at approximately 2.5 Mbps. This compares very favourably to the PS4’s broadcast stream of 960×540 30 fps, at approximately 1.7 Mbps.

Beyond the resolution increase Xbox One Twitch also features broadcast archives, something PS4 users are still without.

The March 11 Xbox One system update will also introduce a host of party functionality enhancements.
