Both GPU's are a little disappointing IMO. Tim Sweeny was really pushing for 2.5 Tflops, and even then games wouldn't look that dramatically better.

Yeah the GPUs really are disappointing but i do agree with your over all post.

As for Tim Sweeny and EPIC Games (Theyre my fav devs)  they were being a bit too unrealistic.  Alot of what they were asking for would have put the consoles at a very steep price.  No way would MSFT have been able to do that with Kinect added.  Sony may have been able to have done it without including the camera but Im sure they didnt want another $600 box either.

I love EPIC but I just think they were asking for too much.  None the  less they said they are developing everything for PC now.   Im really hoping Fortnite finds its way to consoles though.  Been waiting forever to hear more about it.

Well, I also suspect it's like someone asking for a huge raise so they would get some bargaing room.   This is because how he acted later - more happy with what they got and saying it wasn't completely needed.  But it worked when he asked for more RAM on the Xbox 360, so why not aim high?

Those kind of cards would still be close to half the cost of the system if you look at current retail prices.  So it would be asking quite a bit for the console manufactures.  And with diminishing returns, it's not as sweet in real life as it sounds.

I don't know how much the new Kinect cost, but it sure seems an expensive.  Plus has to be tough to manufacture as it's really a sensitive piece of equiptment with all the fast calcuations it has to be doing. It is such a huge improvement over the old one - which I think cost about $50 for the hardware to manufacture, not including all the R&D.  But hey, before Kinect equiptment that could do what it could do was like $10K.

But if you compair the graphics of Crackdown to Halo 4, there will be plenty of improvements on the next few years.

Sony do very sensitive cameras =] no problem at all...

And you would be impressed by the quality of some optical instruments made in Japan =]

Now on a more serious note, developers asking for more power (they will always do it) is like your employee asking for more colleages because ge can't met his quota... usually working better is a preferable solution.
