I would say, a little, Sony seems to be throwing everything they can in the PS4, but so much of it seemed like they were playing catch up with the Xbox and Live. Adding facebook, better friends integration, using real names/pictures, chat, downloading when the console is off, integration with Phone and Tablets, etc. they presented them like they were new, even though Xbox has already had most of that stuff, for years in some cases.

Plus, they are clearly going after Kinect with their new PS4 Eye Camera, face recognition and the controller light/3D capture. I'm not sure how well that is going to work. It seemed much like a Xbox tribute.

The things they should watch:

8GB DDR5 memory - that seems like Sony's Ace.

The 'share' button - a little easier than what Microsoft already has in many games and through live. Easy and simple is good.

Instant on and suspend. While it does sound exactly what Microsoft is already doing with Windows 8. It could be a very nice feature - although seemed aimed at WiiU complaints.

The 'play while streaming' could be a nice thing.

Like the OP said 5-10% is hardly noticeable as a difference in console power.

And what they didn't talk about - 4K video playback? Display Port output?



 

Really not sure I see any point of Consol over PC's since Kinect, Wii and other alternative ways to play have been abandoned.

Tell me a funny joke!
