Not so, joe. Not so at all.

PS4 has: GPU 50% more shaders 50% more
fill rate 100% more
RAM is 8G GDDR5 totally on 170gb/s
architecture has both hUMA and HSA

And the secret sauce, if there was any, would be announced by now.

He wasn’t arogent at all actually ,he was stating the facts. The biggest difference between the two systems is the price point ,nothing else ….

Well I’m not saying the console will die. I don’t want Xbox One to die – and no gamer should, as it’d be unhealthy for the industry. I just don’t like the sudden tone of Penello, who was doing so well talking about Xbox One.

But you’ll see the difference in games – and you’re right, gameplay trumps all. But in the long run, it’ll make PS4 shine more – and some games will run at 60fp and 1080p on PS4 – while the same game will only manage 720p and 60fps on Xbox One. And that will indeed vex some gamers.

Let’s see what DICE does with Battlefield 4 in that department.

Right now on PS4 and Xbox One, it’s 720p and 60fps – but gamers complained, and DICE said what we saw wasn’t final build – but I wonder if they wanted to keep parity on consoles and decided to keep it at 720p and 60fps because Xbox One couldn’t manage…. We’ll see.

I never said that. Yes, you will be able to notice it. I only said the Xbox One isn’t going to die just because of it. I know people will judge games by how they look (I do too sometimes), but the actual gameplay and experience is much more important than how it looks. No, I’m not saying the Xbox One games will definitely be better than PS4′s, that has yet to be seen.

So you’re saying a console with 40 percent more power than its competitor will show no difference at all?

I think it’ll be quite recognizable.

Although he definitely could’ve said it better, he’s right. This raw power difference isn’t going to be a big deal once developers learn to use both platforms to their full potential. Sure, the PS4 may have slightly better graphics, but is that really a make or break situation? If it was something like 60% better, then yes, but 30%-40% is not a big deal, at least not to me
