It's a super changed PC architecture... it's true... nothing wrong here.

What Cerny says is that they get the PC architecture and made a lot of changes over it to make easy and better for game developers than PC... he never said the PS4 is a super ultra high-end computer lol... the GPU itself have a lot of features not found in PC.

They don't need 4k... HDTVs are 1080p lol... the 4k is yet recent and will be popular in 10 or more years.


Charged, not changed and it's nothing of the sorts, it's a mix of low-end/mid-range hardware where the majority of it's technology was invented first on the PC for PC gamers and not invented for the consoles, AMD and Sony made some minor changes but on the whole it's not that different and certainly nothing that's a game changer.

Taking this line: "The hardware has to grow over time. That’s why I refer to it as a super-charged PC architecture – there’s more in it than what you find in a PC."

He makes it out as if the PS4's hardware is going to improve over time and that it's better than the PC, simply not the case in the real world, you can't upgrade *any* of the hardware except the Hard Drive and I would bet my left kidney that my PC has more hardware in it than the PS4 has.

And yes you are right, HDTV's are 1080P or lower, but 4k is available, today.
It just hammers in the point that the consoles are already a Generation behind the PC. :P

Developers can optimize for the hardware. I think that's what he means there. PS3 games gradually got better as time went on even though the hardware stayed the same.
