Aside from all specs-talk I am looking forward to first head2head-comparisons. By now I don't *see* an advantage PS4 has over Xbone graphically. But some games *should* show advantages, even big ones, if PS4 is overall so much stronger as some believe.

I wouldn't say it's "so much stronger", but spec-for-spec, it's the more powerful machine.

You know that some fantasizing about 50% more performance... I am taking them for an example. Hell, there are even people on this forum who think PS4 can compete with high-end PC gpus... That's why I said "as some believe". I repeated several times that system-performance is dependant on so many things, spec-by-spec-comparisons never tell you the "real" story.

PS4 GPU has  modifications which solves some of the bottlenecks the PC has, so it gives better results due to the tweaks and optimization done at the hardware level which was explained by Mark cerney itself.

Read my post for details about modifications: http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/thread.php?id=164584&page=1

We already had a talk about your comparison of PS4 and high end PC GPUs and I already told you it is wrong. No need to get this talk again in this thread. I know of these optimizations but they don't make the 1.8TF any higher.

Yes, I agree that it has only 1.84TF but its enough to make games upto 60FPS without sacrificing much details compared to Hight End GPU tier. So, we'll get better games with better deatils this time from the developers Like naughty dog, GG and santa monica who can squeeze more out of the hardware.

 

"without sacrificing much details" is already a sacrifice. We will see how PC games compare to next-gen-console versions. Perhaps Battlefield 4 will be the first interesting subject.

Also optimizations plays big role even though it has limit of 1.84TF peak performance, for example hardware decoding of a movie which uses less resources due to opimized code and excution instead of Soft decoding which uses more resources for achieving same results. So, with better utilization of hardware using optimzations allows to do more where PC GPU's needs more resources(here its TF advantage of PC is used) to perform similar task because of lacking optimizations and bottlenecks in PC.

This optimizations is better used by First Party studios like I said before from the deveopers like Naughty dog, GG and Santa monica, so only those games shows big differences which can be proved by the games like Last of US, God of war, Uncharted and Killzone which was done in 2006 hardware, but these games are not going to be available to PC, since these games are developed specifically only for this architecture so they use the hardware resources better unlike PC games where the games are not developed around a single architecture.

Playstaion is mostly about its exclusives which is cared by most of us and for Mutli platforms its PC if people can afford otherwise Console but this time Console versions can also be as good as PC due to the similar artchitecture mostly. If you want to compare Console then compare it with a 500$ PC instead of comparing it with like 1000$ or more. Also PC developers uses mainstream GPU's as their base for making games so it can render games very well in most of the GPU's, respectively better in Consoles since its better.
