You will soon find that if your opinion in any way is not going down the path the the PS4 is all powerful, you will be questioned and harrassed until the end of time on these forums. Eventually, basic frustration begins and that's when the Sony faithful take advantage of you. People end up falling off topic and making personal attacks. If you want to stick around, don't bother to try to debate PS4 vs XB1 power. Too many Sony supporters here and all of them act like they designed both systems and know better than anyone with a different opinion.
OT : I am a supporter of the XB1(even though i did not preorder it or the PS4). But the facts are the facts at this point. The PS4 is probably 30% more powerful in graphics capability than the XB1. The difference is that within 2 years both systems will sadly be way under powered. They can barely do 1080p now and it will be a steady decline towards 30fps and 720p. 1st party games will be the only ones to do better, but that will be because the designers made choices to reduce other parts of the games to achieve higher resolution or faster framerates. When everbody complained about the "power of the cloud" on this site, they were very short sighted. The power of the cloud had better help both systems a few years from now or there will be great dissapointment in our futures. |
PlayStation 4 is powerful, but the gap is not that huge and rule of diminishing returns are applied...
Only reason why games on Xbox One and PlayStation 4 would be sub 1080p is because of 3rd party wanting the best visuals and because of game engines that are coded in high level or mid level code rather than low level code like Assemly to use maximum out of the machine, look at Iron Fall for 3DS.
Gap between Xbox One and PlayStation 4 is not huge by any standards at these power levels, it that was like with Genesis versus SNES then 30% made a huge difference yet the more performance you have the less you can do as you increase resolution, drawing distance and other things.
I could go chatting about this for days.
