Is Microsoft in panic mode after Sony's PS4 reveal?

GDDR5 = Cell

I mean this in terms of fans using this as a crutch in bragging comparisons. Sigh. This is gonna get old.....just like in 2006.

At least people used Cell from DBZ to soften the blow.....this term sounds too technical to make fun of it.

MS havent even shown their specs yet and you are already trying to put down the ps4.....good luck with that. And I hope you enjoy kinect. 

MS has two major afvantages over Sony:

1. They have a lot more ram. Or had, until yesterday. That advantage has been completely shot down.

2. They bought out every company doing 3D research and development during the Kinect days (which are over as soon as Kinect2 appears). So, no question, their Kinect2 will be better than Sony's Kinect (which we actually saw operating in the MediaMolecule demo. Just in case you missed it because "Kinect stuff is shit I don't care").

The Durango presentation will be all over Kinect2 (and about a hundred shooter clips), because that is all there is left currently. It could be very impressive indeed (if they don't resort to baldfaced lying like they did in the original Kinect presentation). If they only resort to showing off their 100 new shooters, I foresee trouble.

Exactly. Thats what I meant - the next xbox will likely have kinect as central to it. I dont really see much more happening other than better control of motions or voice - perhaps the promise that was made that you could scan reallife items into the game (i.e. surfboard) really will happen this time. Still...doesnt interest me.
