Not like a big accomplishment. But whatever, great numbers for PS4! If this are correct... I still something is wrong with this week numbers.

On the plus side, it would be nice for the most powerful system to be the one with the bigger userbase and so getting more of it's full potential used. Particularly the PS2 held back that generation greatly compared with what would have been possible from Xbox or GameCube if they'd had the equivalent dominance in userbase.

I guess it would be great for the industry, but how much power difference was there between PS2 and the others? I didn't notice a huge difference. (I had PS2, one friend Xbox and another GC)

There was a pretty big difference between them. Especially the Xbox and PS2. Quite a lot of games had improved textures/framerate on the Xbox. Games such as Burnout 2 were 60fps split screen on Xbox vs 30fps on the other systems.

GCN was more difficult to call as the system had a completely different architechture. However I think Resident Evil 4 was noticibly better on GCN than PS2.

*This isn't to say the PS2 wasn't a fantastic system. It's just I do wonder what we might have seen if the GCN or Xbox became market leader that generation.
