Developers have been saying for months and months that these two consoles have been nearly identical(which could change down the road). So does this article(Whether it has any merit is a different story) but the fans are the ones making it a war. And it is the fans that understand little about hardware, optimization, and the operating system. It is a little annoying to have people arguing about this for months and months when they are not certified (Majority) in Engineering or developing.

I tried to find devs from different months, but like a lot of people, most devs I hear from have been clear that the PS4 is more powerful. But their word isn't all to take, just the GPUs alone, 1.84TFLOPS vs 1.29TFLOPS. Plus, 8GB GRRD5 is stronger than 8GB DDR3, no matter how it's spun. None of it should be that big of a deal, but with an article being posted with blatant fallacies, things should be corrected.

Thread should have ended here.

Well said CGI.

How on earth Xbone has 260GB/s bandwidth is beyond me.
