Also, no one was anticipating the next gen consoles to be as powerful as they are, i.e. they assumed Sony and MS were going to take the Nintendo route and make severely weak consoles in order to make up for costs, so Tablets and Phones would catch up much more quickly this time around. |
Are you kidding? Former console generations outperformed any mainstream PC when they launched. Examples?
It took nearly 2 years from the Japan launch of the PS1 until the first good 3d-accelerator (3DFX Voodoo 1) arrived on PC. The $299 Xbox360 core outperformed any non-SLI PC when it launched in 2005.
The PS4 and XBO are good consoles, but many affordable PC-systems (without multiple GPUs) of 2013 and 2014 could keep up and even deliver better performance in most games.
