It's not really Sony that is the problem here, they had to be carefull not to make the same mistake as with PS3 and lot of people were expecting them to go even more conservative than that - on the other hand, for others, PS4 reveal was pretty much what was guesstimated (except for weaker CPU)

I keep mentioning EPIC and Samaritan again and again cause of how close EPIC was with MS - and they've clearly stated that Samaritan is 'love letter to hardware manufacturers" and that they need at least 2.5TFLOPS - subsequently, SVOGI had to be pulled out of UE4 after console reveal, so it seems that even they were a bit taken by surprise.

If MS decided to listen to them (like they have for X360), we would have one console that is what devs were asking/expecting and one console that is somewhat underpowered, but not terrbily so. Instead of that, we have two consoles that are underpowered, one less and one more.

Yowch, if they expected 2.5 TFLOPS from current gen consoles, they must not have been pleased with what they got.

PS4 is what, about 1.8, Xbone about 1.3? (And Wii U not even 1TFLOPS)
