You could be addressing either point so I'll answer both.
I don't see there being any real difference because we've had a few rumors/comments floating around over the past few months that puts the two consoles within a similar power range. Admittedly some were before Sony bumped the ram up to 8GB, so there may be a small difference, we'll see.
Secondly, I believe Sony will get more out of their machine because they see technology and visuals as key selling points for their software. They went with the most powerful console last gen and they might be going with it again this generation for a reason. They want the best looking games, and their dev teams like ND (with the ICE team purely working on graphics technology), GG and SSM produced some powerful engines this past generation. The PS3 was squeezed for everything it had, engines were optimized again and again. Things could change if MS shift their priorities, but we didn't see the 360 tapped in the same way by MS first party last gen. Halo 4 was a much talked about title that was utilizing everything the 360 had to offer, but that didn't land until 7 years after the 360 had launched, years prior to that Sony's studios had already mastered what was widely considered more difficult hardware to work with.
