PS4 has about 40% more gpu gflops compared to xbox one and we get normal differences of about 900p to 1080p for that extra performance. Xbox one X is about 45% more performance than ps4 pro so we are going to end up with 1800p to 2160p differences. Now Microsoft has both the weakest and the strongest of the 4 consoles. However all 4 will be running the same multiformat games at varying resolutions. You'd be mad to buy a xbox one X if the games you wanted were on ps4 and vice versa.
I think people need to realise its going to be the same game experience across all 4 consoles.
Both PS4 pro and Xbox one X are not next gen consoles they are enhanced versions of existing consoles designed to run the current games at increased graphic fidelity nothing more.
These aren't the consoles that take us to the next gaming level with even more sophisticated game engines, improved physics, AI etc its more of the same but prettier. |
Resolution increases aren't always a linear demand on hardware resources. Processors always have a bottleneck somewhere... And those bottlenecks can sometimes become apparant as you increase in resolutions.
If you already own a Playstation 4 Pro though, there is likely zero value in buying the Scorpio console, the bulk of it's game library is multiplatform. It's also not going to be "Generationally ahead" either in regards to overall fidelity.

It goes without saying that its not a linear demand and the developers may have to make adjustments but as a general guide its very true even if the difference in versions requires a few nips and tucks to get the game running well depending on weaker or stronger parts of the specification. I don't own a pro or intend to buy an X in the short term myself. I thought I would buy a ps4 pro because of VR but that also hasn't got the software range that justifies the purchase for me. Still very happy with my standard ps4 and xbox one for the moment. I'm trying to dial back on my gaming platforms as have a huge backlog of games to start.
