I have said this too..... its f my opinion that people are mixing up this whole two skus thing from MS. They are lookin at it as one being more powerful and the the other being less powerful than the PS5. I however believe its more like a 4k sku ad a 1080p sku. And both of them will have a 4k sku that is pretty much identical with regards to power and price. Only difference is that MS will also have a cheaper 1080p console that sony may not release. |
If that turns out to be the case, I don't see the XB2 doing very well, especially if the PS5 actually turns out to be more powerful at the same $399. Even if the "1080p" box is $100 cheaper, there's going to a larger difference between the games than just resolution. People are going to want that real jump in their next gen HW, not a console that would be basically a XBO X with a better CPU. I also doubt that many devs are going to be happy about having to develop for an underpowered console, when they are going to want to move on from last gen.
Then, again, maybe MS is preparing for that to be a possible outcome. Hence the 3rd party publishing on Nintendo that has been rumored.
