Great video that just tells it like is. 11 days to go before the real next gen begins. People are impressed. Deal with it.

The problem here is that IGN is intentionally trying to mislead potential buyers that they are equals spec wise before launch. It isn't true and IGN should be called out on their lies. 

I'm not sure what you think is wrong with what they said.

"From Raw Specs the PS4 has the edge but what matters the most is how devs use the hardware.  Even then consoles dont show their best until later in the console cycle"

None of that is wrong and she did mention PS4 specs are better from a technical aspect.  I'm not sure how any of that is misleading.

The consoles showing their best later in the cycle doesn't have one thing to do with the fact that ps4 is stronger than the Xbox one. It's an attempt to make them equal. 

This is all bullshit. One is stronger, they know it is, and they are intetionally misleading with these nonesense statements. 


Wow lol you are legitimately upset over this. Calm down dude.

That was a good informative video. Do you want Ign to shit on the xbox one?

What part is informative? The non-existent DDR5? The bluethooth feature on Xbone? Becasue both are wrong.

What good is the media if they push the same paid advertising as the PR guys themselves. Media is supposed to put out hard facts and let the consumers decide from that point.

I know MS has deep pockets but paying everyone to look the other way about their console being able to handle half the resolution, with lower frame rates, and less effects is outrageous. Most of the games people play will see this result all generation long, and this should be well documented in the press, and not swept under the rug. This is blatant misinformation from the media.

If PS4 is not a good multimedia device, knock it hard for that, if it is missing features that the competition has bring it to the forefront. A true unbiased review clearly states the advantages and disadvantages down to the finest details.



Stop hate, let others live the life they were given. Everyone has their problems, and no one should have to feel ashamed for the way they were born. Be proud of who you are, encourage others to be proud of themselves. Learn, research, absorb everything around you. Nothing is meaningless, a purpose is placed on everything no matter how you perceive it. Discover how to love, and share that love with everything that you encounter. Help make existence a beautiful thing.

Yeah exactly, cuz Xbox One has Wi-fi Direct 250mb/s. Way better than the 3mb/s from Bluetooth 2.1

At the end of the video they did mention the PS4 has the technical edge.

I'm guessing you're angry they didn't harp on it enough? They don't have to, the Internet does that for them.

They mention it has a techincal edge after downplaying the differences, putting up false comparision charts, and saying that they can't say one is clearly stronger than the other (when one is clearly strogner than the other). 

When you do a specs comparision video and one hardware is clearly better than the other you have to say it, that's the point of the comparision, to compare. This is insanity. They downplayed and tried to make them equal and you can defend them if you want.

You're ignoring MS haz teh cloud! Unlimited power.

Seriously though, I think you people are getting worked up over IGN not boasting enough.
