I don't understand the "just get a PC" argument. The article isn't saying that you need to get the most powerful system to play games on. It's saying that consumers have a right to know if there is a difference in the way one console is going to perform next to it's main competitor. Which is true. If there is a noticeable visual gap between two consoles that's an important thing to know.

"If there is a noticeable visual gap between two consoles that's an important thing to know."

You must have just started gaming yesterday, because this has literally been the case with the home gaming industry since its inception some 40 years ago.

Edit:  And so far, this new generation of consoles represents the LEAST noticeable visual gap between two consoles (excluding the Wii U of course) since the days of Pong.

Then why do have people constantly saying it doesn't matter?

What? The visual gap between the consoles this gen is already bigger than it was last gen. and I've been gaming for 15 years thank you very much.
