I'm in the media, I've spoken to developers, they say it's mote powerful than the PS3/X360.
I'm also a self certified tech geek and I build computers for fun and I've studied computer science and based on the known details, it's more powerful than the X360/PS3.
Why is still even getting debated? Why are some of you intentionally so negative? Why do some of you non-Nintendo fans spend more time in the Nintendo boards than ay other section on this forum? If all you can do is be negative, post with the intent to irritate and frustrate and divert a good discussion onto an irrelevant tangent, take it somewhere else. |
I'm gonna quote Tachikoma from my thread "Why PS4 won't be cutting edge, and neither will Xbox3", because I think she provides quite interesting points, and since you're always reasonable I thought I'd ask you what you think:
Upon release of both, yes the WiiU will be positioned much less powerful than the others, in more or less the same power-gap seen by the Wii.

Crediblity as a developer = gone.
The Wii to PS3/X360 power gap was massive. But it was more than that. It was an architecture gap too. Fixed function GPU/Single core CPU vs programmable shader and mutliple cores. That architectural gap doesn't exist this time. And the power gap is smaller as well. The Wii pushed just 3 GFLOPS compared to the 115 and 218 GFLOPS of the X360 and PS3 respectively. That's a gap of 39 and 73 x the power. The Wii U is between 400 and 600 GFLOPS. Even if Orbis and Durango push 2 TFLOPS, that's a power gap of just 3.3 to 5 x. And don't forget the SD to HD difference last gen...that's gone too.

She definitely knows a lot about tech, but is she really a developer? On her posts she talks about the power of the 720 and the PS4, and she talks about them like nothing. I mean if she really works on the media she could lose her job or she doesn't care about getting caught.
Sure she's not mentioning specs but in software and hardware companies (I kinda know how it works since I work for a software developing company, but not in the U.S so maybe it's different), even mentioning the smallest things can make you lose your job.

I don't know... Maybe she works as a secretary? :P But I also find it weird how she can talk so much about it all, but she do sound knowledgeable and more people around here assume she's a developer; just take a look at her profile.
