The differences between specs is bigger than Xbox-PS2.

Xbox and PS never had a over 40% gap power.


False. Even the PS3-360 gap was larger. This gen overall system difference is NOT over 40%.

It was? All I have heard from sources is that the PS4-X1 gap, while not as big as PS2-Xbox, is certainly bigger than PS3 and 360. 40%  being the minimum. I mean sure, numbers are numbers, but there are quite a bit of sources that say something similar.

While it is very hard to find concrete numbers from this gen, the ones I did find suggested anywhere from 50-100% in PS3 favor. Not to mention optical media on this gen played a huge role which won't be the case next gen.

To be honest, the only sources I ever saw mention a higher than 40% figure for total hardware performance were PS4 exclusive devs. I've seen way more multiplat devs and big names saying the hardware performance is very similar.

The net performance differences this gen are around 20-30% in PS4 favor (assuming PS4 cpu/gpu are 1.6ghz and 800mhz respectively).
