How powerful you think the PS4/"Xbox 720" will be?

If you take Moore's law into account it will be 2x more powerfull than current cosoles max. But I think the next-box will be the most powerfull because the Xbox360 is also the most powerfull of the 2...

That isn't how Moore's law works. Moore's law says that transistor counts (which also means a similar increase in processor performance) will double every eighteen months.

If we assume the next Xbox comes out Fall 2013, that will be eight full years between console releases (Xbox 360 came out Fall 2005), or 96 months. 96 months is 5 1/3 "18 month" periods. This means that the next Xbox should be  2^5.333  = 40.32 times the power of the Xbox 360.

Wii U doesn't really look anywhere close to 40 times the power of the 360 to me. The gap in graphic power between Wii U and the next Xbox might very well be even bigger than the gap between the Wii and the Xbox 360. 

Whatever....But I actually meant 2x powerful as the WiiU...
