Great point. Never thought of that...
They're probably very surprised at the amount of GDDR5 ram the PS4 has. Even Naughty Dog was.
Apparently, Sony said they won't block off used games. That should be MS's real concern. If they block off used games, they would shoot themselves in the foot. I really don't think they will however.
Honestly, I see the same scenario as this gen. Very similarly powerful consoles, the only difference being their exclusive franchises. However, I get the feeling the 720 will be more powerful in most, if not all, aspects specs wise but as we saw this gen, you don't need the most powerful or graphics-whore console to get to the top.
It was a good show, they showed off an impressive new console, some good franchises making a return and some great looking new IPs as well as Multiplats. Now it is MS's turn to counterattack. Let's see what they have up their sleeve.
As for the Wii U...just damn.

Latest Metas: Halo 4 - 87....selling 7.7 million and counting
KZ 3 - 84....sold 2.42 million
Forza: Proven 90+ franchise with each main entry.
I have tangible evidence to back up my claims. You just rely on dated troll thinking. Also I love how usually when people say opinion they mean "your right but I can still disagree with you anyway" lol
Nope. MS doesnt care about what Sony does because they already have the media supporting them and the casuals.
Core gamers are sticked to Live.
MS doesnt care about DDR5 or 8GB of Ram or magical graphics, they will make a Console to sell to masses.
* Stronger hardware, especially the Megaton of 8GB of GDDR5 RAM
* Sony totally catching up on the social gaming and connectivity thing which up until now has been Microsoft's ace. Share button, backwards compatibilaty through the cloud (Gaikai) are features that the Xbox 720 isn't rumoured to have yet.
* Sony successfully love-bombing third party developers judging by their positive response to a much easier to use console and making the entry level for indie developers simpler

You also had "tangible evidence" to back up your "Sony releases consoles the year after revealing them" statement. Look where that got you.
Holiday 2013.
i wager they will look quite similar in most regards. similar graphics. similar focus on social. similar reveal in 3rd party. maybe a bit short on first party games, we'll finally find out what all their new studios are actually doing.
i feel like playstation will have one-uped them on elimination of start-up and download waits. that kind of immediacy is amazing and i'm guessing something MS doesn't have. we'll see how "access" plays out. i'm really stoked that i can play ps4 games on my vita. i know MS has their surface focus but i'd bet against remote play with tablets. the other features will probably be similar...access of game stats and the such.
if feel like xbox will have a lot of non-gaming features. tv and the sort seems to be a constant theme in rumors. maybe that will work out for them, i feel like it is a gamble. on the one hand it's an audience that currently aren't buying consoles per se. on the other hand, as a gamer i don't give a shit and it dilutes the message, purpose, and philosophy of the xbox. we'll see i suppose.
