binary solo said: Too weak relative to what? Relative to the previous generation, clearly not too weak. The hardware specs, taken as a package are a major upgrade over PS360. Have consoles ever been on par with decent gaming PCs at the time they come out? Never. And don't forget PS360 games were rarely rock solid in performing at 720p/30fps. There was always some screen tearing or frame rate drops. Even in the superior 360 versions of multiplats the 360 was never rock solid in these performance elements it just has less tearing and not as much framerate drop. So if you can get all games on PS4 and Xb one to achieve at a minimum 720p that have more detail, more going on on screen than PS360 and frame rates that permanently stay above 30fps and zero screen tearing that's a significant improvement. If most games are 720p and 60fps with solid frame rates and no tearing then that's a massive improvement.

Not sure if you watched the video,but what I got from it was that they though that because devs had to cut content because the systems couldn't run it in 720p 60fps and the systems has pc architecture, in other words devs. are already pretty familiar with it, they couldn't get how they expect these consoles to last for 10 years.

Sony said they had a 10-year plan with PS3 but it'll only be 7 years between PS3 launch in NA and PS4 launch globally (almost). I did watch most of the video, but they seemed to be starting to repeat themselves less than half way through. So they had to cut content from KI to get 720p/60fps, but cut it down from what? One of the guys said that developers basically started working on high end PCs and then received Xb one dev kits. That means they had to cut down content from what they developed on machines with significantly higher specs than Xb one dev kits, big deal.

Yeah, but how long are high end pc's really high end? High end pc's will stop being high end within a few years, and those high end pc's are still better than PS4 and Xbox One. With the speeds tablets are moving in we are going to have just as capable gaming tablets in maybe two years. What are they going to do then? And just because Sony wanted the gen to last 10 years last time, and it only lasted for 7 years, doesn't mean that we'll get a 7 year cycle this time around.
