Do we need to keep beating this to death.  Does anyone even care?!?  My 2 year old PC is more power than both, yet there are far more power PC's than mine...do I care...not really.  The only way any of this would make any difference is if the PS4 was the most powerful thing you could play games on, and it's not.

While I agree that there is no point bringing up the PS4 is more powerful than X1 conversation in the same way no one bothers saying the X1 is more powerful than the WiiU, I have to admit though that I think comparing a PC to a console is just flat out silly. They aren't even in the same platform; you have handhelds, consoles and PCs. Three different platforms, you don't see anyone comparing the power of consoles to handhelds simply because there are console games that you can only play on handhelds do you?

Another way to look at this; the gamer that is in the market of buying a console, does not care if your 2yr old PC is more powerful than the console. In the very same way that a PC gamer that goes into a store to buy a $1000 GPU, wouldn't walk out with a $400 PS4 as a convert. Again, two completely different platforms.
