I read the AMA thread the dev did on reddit and the second I saw him mention that PS4 has better specs I knew this would show up here. To all those calling bullshit sorry, but the dev was confirmed by the mods on reddit.


A Microsoft dev saying the specs are better on paper does not in any way shape or form equal he prefers the PS4. Especially when someone in house at Microsoft wouldn't have a PS4 dev kit to play.

Maybe you should read your own links.


I don't have to. I know what he said. He said "PS4 has better specs on paper" end of thread/. No twisting or turning this into anything else. 



I was walking down along the street and I heard this voice saying, "Good evening, Mr. Dowd." Well, I turned around and here was this big six-foot rabbit leaning up against a lamp-post. Well, I thought nothing of that because when you've lived in a town as long as I've lived in this one, you get used to the fact that everybody knows your name.

ARTICLE: http://www.kpopstarz.com/articles/34915/20130718/ps4-vs-xbox-one-specs.htm

An anonymous Microsoft developer said they prefer the Playstation 4 over the Xbox One because it has better specs and features, according to Sidhtech, flaring competition between both companies in the next-generation console war.

"An individual who doesn't want to be named and who says that they are a developer on the Xbox One, has been on Reddit and spoke out about the family sharing features and specs of the Xbox One in comparison to those of the Sony PS4. What does happen to be interesting about the rumor is that that Reddit have had confirmation that the person is someone who has worked on the console extensively," Sidhtech writes. 

"There is a confirmed XB1 tag by the name of the person when he has made comments. While there are many topics that have been covered, some of the most important ones are that the person says that on paper the PS4 specs are better than the Xbox One. The comments do happen to be interesting as they actually come from someone who has worked on the Xbox 360."

The Xbox One's developing company might also face some struggles in Europe as earlier this week, over 300 European games industry members were asked for their views by the Game Developers Conference on the next generation of consoles and 13 percent of respondents said they were working on PlayStation 4 games, compared with percent working for Xbox One and 5 percent for Wii U, according to IGN.

The poll also measured the future intentions of the European developers as well; 23 percent of those asked were planning to create a PS4 title next, while 14 percent were eyeing up the Xbox One and 7 percent the Wii U, IGN also reports.

But Europe isn't the only region of the world where Microsoft might encounter some difficulties.

Sony and Nintendo experienced an increase in stock after a Chinese government source was quoted saying the 13-year-old ban on video game sales might be lifted, leaving gamers wondering why Microsoft's stock was untouched after the announcement of China's possible move.

No need to add "alleged" in there when it was confirmed by the mods

lol... when have you ever seen original content on vgchartz.  so just because it mentioned the ps4 was meaningless. most post start from something they've read from other sources.

Ok guys, first of all, I am legit. If you doubt it, track my pastebin records.
I can't reveal anything with deep knowledge but take it as you wish. I prefer the PS4 because (taking a look at my pay-check) it has the best controller and given the dev-environment basing on Visual Studio that I just got used to while I always was an MS-dev the PS4 is way better because I like them very much and they focus on gaming because MS focusses on money and Sony was always better and stuff. The system is so easy to develop for and everything works out of the box. It is a pleasure to develop for and my wife is finally satisfied since I started programming for PS4 which I do secretly because otherwise I will get fired but Sony gave the devkit to me for free. Sony is the best company there is and noone is as good as they are. Did I mention how easy to develop it is for and how awesome the controller is, especially for fps-games?! No? Then I do it now. Please buy the PS4, please!

If true, an employee of one company prefers another company's product. How does this affect anyone besides him? Don't know that it does.


this is where logic fails.  nowhere did the so called xbox one developer say "i prefer ps4" or that he likes ps4 the best.  all he said was as for as everyone in the whole world that has seen the stats.  on paper ps4 has the better stats.

And this doesn't result in a better system or a system with more *system* performance while it is probable.

Another troll in disguise?
Just like the one that reported about the sharing feature was only for demos.
Keep trying harder trolls
