I believe that for the difference to be not really big the coding will need to be really clever (and actualy I really believe that 30 to 50% is possible, but won't be really noticeable if developers use the right areas to compromise). But what is most incredible and would be interesting to learn is how they will manage to wright/read simultaneously, It may contribute to general computation more than some of the things Sony is coming with... but and people talking about audio chip, don't expect Sony to have a poor solution (even tough they haven't detailed it) because they are in that bussiness as well and PS3 is good in this part (I could say that the main reason for MS bigger audio chip is kinect voice recognition, and in game usage both will be similar and PS4 mic will be somewhat worst). |
In terms of a balanced machine, what concerns me with that, as a peice of tech the XboxOne Seems less balanced in terms of just being a well thought out machine. It's larger than the PS4, it has an external power supply, the controllers need batteries, you can't swap the hard disk. All of these things concern me with the quality of the engineers.
They can say on one hand that they have a more balanced console but cannot get the basics right in terms of those basics, how can i believe their engineers are better than Sony's at this point. Crazy.
In terms of raw power/power, i think some things will definately be toned down in XbO games compared to PS4, but you have to question how much of that you will notice. going down to 900p you might not notice a difference. So i agree with that, but saying the frame rate might be a single digit, well as long as its under 5 FPS thats fine, but if its more like 9, thats a problem.
Unfortunately this argument is going to continue way past console release. :(
