I guess if your OK with 1/2 the sales of your competitor, then your right.

LOL thats hardly "rage". Nvidia is bitter about it.

Please read this: http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/thread.php?id=178737 I am a bit surprised with the way that people are underwhelmed by the jump. I believe more to do with the diminishing returns to the perception of performance, rather than the actual technical achievement. Because I see that the jump is as big as it has always been, if not bigger... Such claims arise especially because of a much easier comparison to the PC architecture this time around instead of propriety and mystical designs, which are harder to prove otherwise. Let's remember that compared to the 7th Generation console designs, the vast majority of developers are relatively much happier this time around, and the technicalities aside, the PC ports to the next-gen consoles look relatively way better without serious sacrificies.
In short, the next gen consoles (or at least PS4) is not weak at all but more than capable, because...
a) Those Consoles come with octo-core processors, which is well beyond the main stream pc with dual core. It's true that those cores have relatively poor single thread performance but with the sufficient level of parallelism and low level calls, CPUs had never been this fast in relative terms (compared to PCs). So the CPU performance will never be an issue. Also keep in mind that the CPU performance improvements have slowed tremendously at the last decade.

When the Xbox 360 launched its GPU was top end and the Cell on PS3 was also pretty much like nothing else.
PS4 and Xbox One would be considered low to mid range builds in todays PC market. In a year they will be budget build models. This is in comparison to PC the smallest jump generation wise.

This is Nvidia trolling since they are shit leopards about amd shit being used in the consoles. |
One can now build a complete PC with this graphic card for about $500 that plays most games with better graphics and does everything the xbox one can, minus most kinect functionality (for now). And of course the PC does more than just plays games (for the same price).

Xbox 360 may have been lucky to fall in to high end when it came out but it became mid range in less than a year when Nvidia launched the 8000 series of cards. 8800 GTX absolutely demolishes both last gen consoles and in came out in late 2006.
Hell 8800 GTX is almost as powerful as Xbox One GPU 7 years later.
Oh look...a new shiny dedicated GPU using latest technology that costs almost 1/3 of the entire console by itself runs a game better.
Seriously how is this even news?
There are several GPUs that are around 150-200 bucks and can match or beat both Xbox One and PS4. Even with dedicated console "optimization" sauce devs are supposed to be using.

Yeah I know it was quickly surpassed but it was high end tech at launch. Xbox One at launch is mid tier at best, considering 750ti is only a $150 GPU and it more than capable of performing at Xbox One levels. The 360 didn't depreciate as fast as Xbox One is going to. Honestly in 4 years I don't see how its going to run new games considering it struggles to even handle and up rezzed port of Tomb Raider and can't even hit 1080p on it.
Not trying to go off topic but, I have a 560ti, is the 750ti better? I've been thinking about an upgrade, although the 560ti is still pretty good. What would be a solid upgrade? Thanks to those that offer their opinions!

You may be factually correct but other than bragging rights of "we had a high end GPU for 12 months", does it really matter that X360 had a high end GPU for slightly longer than current gen? We all know the 360 console was rushed and it may have been lucky to fall in between GPU cycles and have some of the high end features for a bit longer. It all evens out at the end. By the time PS3 launched there were several GPUs with both manufacturers running circles around next gen consoles.
I'm not trying to defend current gen consoles...I'm a PC guy...but for what they are, they are perfectly fine with current specs.

It's implied that it makes most casual PCs capable of playing at 1080p resolutions without much needed but simply stick in and play. You can choose to be narrow about it, but this will land many PC's in the price range of the XOne. Duh even a 280X is cheaper than a PS4 and it mops the floor with it. Going back, If you are to compare just for the sake, then PS4 would still offer better value at $399. Building a PC with say a 265 would still land you at the XOne price range.
The accessibly and new technology is there and there is nothing to see? Geez I should apologize, absolutely no news here people. Carry on.
