Sony already knows the release date two years in advance and an hdmi port on the front? Fake!!!!!

[...]

I don't know, the HDMI-Port would make perfect sense in my book. You would need it for VR so you don't have to plug in that ugly box that comes with PSVR right now. Being able to plug in your headset in the front would be sweet. 

But yeah, it still looks fake. Also the specs would be somewhat disappointing. Hardly more capable than my laptop. Already less capable than my desktop. I mean I know consoles don't really try to be better than PCs these days. But being behind 1-2 years before release? I don't know, that kinda sucks. And if they go the route of 4K gaming with just 10 TF, I will expect another generation of 30 fps stutter. RTX 2080 Ti comes with about 14 TF and it still can't handle all games from today in 4K at 60 fps. Talk about future proofing. I'd prefer it if Sony waits a little more, maybe until 2020 or even 2021 and packs some real punch into the system. Otherwise it will be dated very soon. But well, at least we'll get a proper CPU instead of a potato this time, so that's something I guess.

But whatever, we'll see.

It's not as simple as comparing the specs of a PC and a console side by side. Consoles have highly customised designs with extreme optimization. The programming is very close to the metal, and they don't have a massive OS like Windows to run on the bottom of everything. To put it simply, a console can get more juice out of the same materials for gaming purposes.
