Forums - Gaming - As Xbox One Looks More Like PS4, Sony Still Has One Key Advantage

PSN Plus is better than Gold is another advantage.

PR is one too.



Around the Network

as good as the Xbox and PS4 look like, the Wii U still has one key advantage :P

Free Online



Only thing Microsoft and Sony can't change is hardware.

PS4 is more powerful.



Diagram has serious errors and inconsistencies and is missing key information

 

GPU TFLOPS of xbone ?

PS4 hard disk size ?

Number of ROPS for both consoles ?

XBONE has HDMI in.

XBONE CPU is NOT custom  build by Microsoft, its made by AMD also. Microsoft does NOT manufacture cpus!

 

Until you correct these basic errors I wont comment further because the basis for comment is incorrect

More like 3: Price, Europe, and Japan

Nothing else matters.


correction:

THE ENTIRE WORLD, except the UK and US, and it has a price advantage on the entire planet that video games are sold....

that and if you look into rumors, spec wise xbox one is inferior

and the esram situation would affect xbox one stock significantly as opposed to demand

I'd say price is huge, but I'd also argue that Sony still has better brand recognition. I wonder if the "Xbox One" name is going to throw off casuals. But I'd say they are pretty much on par now. Otherwise, I'd say at least wait for Gamescom to see who has the advantage.


it's obvious who has an advantage...

and it isn't an arguement on whether or not sony has better brand recognition that microsoft in gaming...

Well thats just not correct. Xbox is prevailent in countries beyond US and UK, just less in number compared to PS. But even then mainland europe and japan are the biggies. So really, to make things as simple as possible: Price, Europe and Japan.

I really take issue when people say "inferior" spec wise. As if that impacts quality in the games. Please tell the Wii, DS, 3DS, and PS2 that they had inferior specs....like it matters. With the graphics level Xbox and PS have at this point, it isn't going to be big at all, multiplats will be more or less similar anyway.

So really, the rpice, and Sony brand power are its main weapons, the only ones that matter. Like the mass market person reads into specs and esram lol



Xbox: Best hardware, Game Pass best value, best BC, more 1st party genres and multiplayer titles. 

 

I’m not sure Sony yet has any exclusives capable of moving plastic as well as Halo

I'm happy you are not sure because GT games move plastic as well as Halo.

The ONE will sell "amazingly considering its price"


Well, we shall compare it to the more expensive PS3, along with the 360. If it sells better than PS3 or 360, sure. If not... Not so much.

More importantly, Rol said something to you a few months ago. This is funny.
