| MikeRox said: Why would an upgrade be necessary to validate his point? His point was his 4 year old gaming PC which cost 2X as much as a PS4 isn't more powerful than a PS4. I'd wager most PCs people use to game on aren't more powerful than a PS4. Epecially if they were £350. Prtty much everyone knows a mid or top end PC is more powerful than a console, but you'd expect it to be given the price differential. |
I think his point is more about timing. I upgraded to a 7870HD in December 2012 (almost 2 years ago) and so far every multiplat still runs better on my PC than on PS4. In 2010 (4 years ago) I had a $99 5670HD (which was weak even then), I dont think the PS4 beats the high end GPUs of the time (5870/5850) by a huge margin. Heck the 5870 is still competent in tiles like battlefield 4 at 1080p (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cUSstUvgreU). As developers get better with consoles those benefits also translate over to PC via drivers and new versions of DirectX/Mantle etc.
I predict that the Wii U will sell a total of 18 million units in its lifetime.
The NX will be a 900p machine
