Sony is NOT, NEVER was, NEVER did caught up with the whole Motion Sensing garbage, like MS did. Hence why the Move never was solely focused on. Their focus has always been the core gaming market, always has always been, simply because that's where Sony excels at. Sony acknowledges this which is why they always have a continuing relationship with developers.

[QUOTE="Kaszilla"] Can you stop pretending like you know the 720 top to bottom?

Isn't that what other people are doing assuming the PS4 will be less efficient.? I don't see you complain hypocrite.

DUALSHOCK 4

Right :roll:

The light on the controller is not Move is to identify players while they log in..:lol: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=515732 The only thing sony showed with the camera was a move demo,but move it self is not included,unlike KInect which the xbox 720 need even to launch a game.

LOL. Right. Customers are just screaming to have a color coded light to show log-in. And multi-coloured health bars on the front of your controller pointed away from you is going to be an awesome advance over an onscreen healthbar. The enhanced 6 axis capability is just a coincidence. Another coincidence is that the new 3d eye can track the new DS4.

The only thing they haven't said is whether the camera is being built in or will be a seperate accessory. Without the camera it is going to be motion sensing light. With the camera it is going to be move 2.0. And there will be the option of a seperate move controller.

I actually like this business strategy better than MS because we presumably wom't have to pay the cost of the camera in every unit. On the otherhand a built in kinect is going to be cheaper than buying a seperate move camera, so a lot may still depend on pricing.

But lets not kid ourselves that one is uber core and the other is uber casual. Sony is building some of the enabling technology into every system, they just have not gone whole hog and bundled the camera (that we know of yet).

Is not move it was stated move still work with this,the DS is not move maybe you have a link to prove it please share it.

1: he proves he doesn't know nothing about next xbox

2: he says rumors specs that could be wrong or could be right and IF thats the case i hope MS goes back and reconsider that

3: Tc claims they went choose to go console excluive on ps4 because of rumors... SAD


k2theswiss
I didnt claim that, I read the article. I would wager that they know the true specs anyway, they just cant directly talk about them yet

:roll: Please.  Go watch the E3 press conference where they revealed the Move.  They spent just as much time talking about it as Mircorosft did in 2009-2010.  The only difference was, one of them was a successful commercial monster that outsold the Ipad launch, while the other one was a failure.  That has more to do with the fact that like  almost every endeavor Sony has attempted this generation they dont support it and send it out to die.   It was a failed project just like the PSPGo, the Xperia Play, etc....

Thats the only reason Sony "doesnt focus on it" now ;)

Do you have a quota of how frequently to make an idiot out of yourself on a daily basis?  :lol:

"And this new controller was designed in tandem with a second peripheral, a stereo camera that can sense the depth of the area in front of it, and can track the 3d position of the controller via its 'light bar'"

""PS4: DualShock 4 is not a Move controller, says Sonys Michael Denny PS4 will be bundled with a dual camera bar that tracks Sonys new DualShock 4 controller, but dont get it mixed up with Move says Michael Denny, vice president of Sony Worldwide Studios Europe. Denny has elaborated a little further on what the new controller can do, and what its light strip is capable of.""

Its from The Witness blog, it explains how the game ended up on PS4.

 

"I dont have good communication with anyone at Microsoft right now, but all our technical people like the PS4 specs a lot more than the leaked Durango specs, and we like the positioning of the PS4 (its about games) more than what we perceive Microsofts positioning is going to be."

Innovazero2000

Except rumblings out developers is that while the PS4 is more powerful, the gap is marginal and similar to the ps3 vs 360. Its brute strength vs raw efficiency.

They are speculating just like anybody else, they don't know any more then the lot at the moment. What MS does as far as positioning goes will greatly influence my decision. I do like what the PS4 is offering though, curious to see the pricing.

No its not lol. PS4 architecture is totally different and the system has CLEAR spec advantages over the lolango leaked specs. Putting it at a clear advantage.

"Killing" in what way?  Sales?  :lol:

Games?  Halo 4 and Forza came out last year.  The ONLY PS3 exclusive that was in the top 60 PS3 games on Metacritic last year was Journey.  In fact, Journey was the only AA+ Sony had last year.

This. These idiots dont even realize that both systems are based off of the same technology. Both systems are using 8 AMD Jaguar cores, and GCN based GPUs based on 7970m.

Non are base on 7970m... The xbox 720 GPU is 12CU with an 8core jaguar,8BG of DDR3 and 32MB of ESRAM. The PS4 is 18CU unified and enhance for computing purposes as well,8 core Jaguar,8GB of GDDR5. Now the GPU don't have the same power the PS4 one is stronger and from the same line,which mean the difference will be notice. The PS4 has a separate chip to handle the OS,the xbox 720 is say to use 2 cores for OS,that means the PS4 has more resources for graphics vs a console that already is under power. The 720 is say to have 3GB of ram reserve for OS and system,the PS4 is rumored to use only 512MB.. There are some serious differences between the 2 systems,if it end like this ^^^ the PS4 will walk over the 720 with ease.

You do not know what the Xbox is based on, outside of it being based on the same architecture in the PS4. AMD Jaguar and GNC (most likely both willl be GNC2)

The PS3 gpu IS based on a 7970m with two fewer CUs.  The 7970m uses 20. 

One of the PS4 rumors said that they removed 2 CUs from it.  

And again you are being rediculous with the GDDR5 nonsense.  GDDR5 is based on DDR3.  It is modified DDR3 for higher bandwidth with a tradeoff of latency, and it is compatable with DDR3.  For this reason, it is the easiest component in the system for Microsoft to upgrade.  There is no fundamental change that needs to take place in the way games are programmed for them to switch it. It is not like the PS3's XDR and GDDR2 memory which require two different programming languages and are not compatable with eachother.  You are a fool if you believe Mircorosft is not going to have it in their platform.

If they make drastic changes like adding CU's to the GPU and changing the DDR3 to GDDR5, the costs will go up and the console will not come out until late 2014. And if we add they're Kinect 2.0 development priority, the X720 will be more expencive than the PS4 if they use the same hardware. I would guess that the easiest upgrade would be to add an own 1+GB of VRAM on the GPU. Also, they have known that the PS4 would have GDDR5 RAM for some time now, we would probably have seen some changes in dev kits about now if they were releasing a console this year with drasticly changed specs.

YET Sony said their focus is CORE gamers. Funny how that works.

Just because they said it doesn't mean they will follow what they said.  It's all marketing and they are trying to get people on board which is working.  

No, they'll probably follow what they say, if the past three Playstation consoles are anything to go by.

You do not know what the Xbox is based on, outside of it being based on the same architecture in the PS4. AMD Jaguar and GNC (most likely both willl be GNC2)

The PS3 gpu IS based on a 7970m with two fewer CUs.  The 7970m uses 20. 

One of the PS4 rumors said that they removed 2 CUs from it.  

And again you are being rediculous with the GDDR5 nonsense.  GDDR5 is based on DDR3.  It is modified DDR3 for higher bandwidth with a tradeoff of latency, and it is compatable with DDR3.  For this reason, it is the easiest component in the system for Microsoft to upgrade.  There is no fundamental change that needs to take place in the way games are programmed for them to switch it. It is not like the PS3's XDR and GDDR2 memory which require two different programming languages and are not compatable with eachother.  You are a fool if you believe Mircorosft is not going to have it in their platform.

No is not is based on the 7870 with 2 CU disable.. GDDR5 is based on DDR 3 but is way faster,and its latency issues were resolve in fact GDDR5 now use tech to cope with latency,it has been posted here already several times,if DDR3 was better for GPU,sellers would still be using it,but no the standard for GPU is GDDR5 the precursor was DDR3,so yeah GPU developers dropped DDR3 for a reason. The fact that ESRAM exist basically kill your argument,please show me links to the xbox 720 using GDDR5,the fact that GDDR5 is based on DDR3 doesn't mean they are compatible,else we would have a barrage of GDDR5 cards running as system memory on PC's every where. Changing ram mean that MS has to change the board and even the design,i am not saying the can't upgrade but to do so the Durango would be delay like for 9 months to a year.

Assuming any of the specs were right to begin with. Lord know how old those durango specs are, the final build could be more powerful.

What if the 720 is weaker than the PS4? And what if its pike PS2 to XBOX? Would cow be hypocritcal and bash the 720 like its the weakest thing since pong?

[QUOTE="tormentos"][QUOTE="StrongDeadlift"] This. These idiots dont even realize that both systems are based off of the same technology. Both systems are using 8 AMD Jaguar cores, and GCN based GPUs based on 7970m.

Non are base on 7970m... The xbox 720 GPU is 12CU with an 8core jaguar,8BG of DDR3 and 32MB of ESRAM. The PS4 is 18CU unified and enhance for computing purposes as well,8 core Jaguar,8GB of GDDR5. Now the GPU don't have the same power the PS4 one is stronger and from the same line,which mean the difference will be notice. The PS4 has a separate chip to handle the OS,the xbox 720 is say to use 2 cores for OS,that means the PS4 has more resources for graphics vs a console that already is under power. The 720 is say to have 3GB of ram reserve for OS and system,the PS4 is rumored to use only 512MB.. There are some serious differences between the 2 systems,if it end like this ^^^ the PS4 will walk over the 720 with ease.

the os thing is *rumored* i don't think a software company like MS is going to go from 32mb os to 3 gig,probably 1.5 or 2 max with apps.dvr and kinnect integrated..and there is also rumors of ARM integrated cores...plus you don't know how much the ps4 os takes with the other features it has...

Anything is possible but extremely highly improbable.. Leaks point at not change in hardware,and the specs are old because well spec are not close in 3 months,you make a design you test how good yields are,and adjust accordingly. Making any big changes like using a more powerful CPU or GPU require another set of yields and more testing.

Hypocrital.? The xbox and the PS2 were not launch at the same time,so is not like MS beat sony head to head,they simple make a better machine that landed almost 2 years latter,20 months to be exact.

Yes it is a rumor but is also say that it runs on windows 8.. RAM: 1 gigabyte (GB) (32-bit) or 2 GB (64-bit) Which on 64 machines requires 2GB and that is not including something like Kinect which PC lack.. So yeah 3GB is not far off if the console will use windows 8. Yes it was rumored and the next latest specs the ARM CPU is not where to be found,while other rumors and much stronger ones point at 2 cores for OS,which would not surprise me when is say that kinect is need it even to launch a game.

its probably stripped down version for the console,remember that the xbox 360 OS is based on windows 2000 which used 64MB and If durango uses a stripped down version probably around 1GB(windows 8 uses 2GB for x64) + kinnect = 2GB and there isn't latest specs they are still the same ones from 2012, its just that VG Leaks divided them in different articles..

I still think that it will be 2GB,it could be more if Kinect is a heavy hit,there are rumors about siri like stuff and other things as well,it may be it maybe be not. I also think the PS4 will use like 1GB or 1.5,and not the 512 rumored.

the voice commands were already used on the original kinect i really doubt those are heavy hit on performance, i am calling most devs are going to use kinect for simple sh!t just to make MS somehow happy for the mandatory implementation and MS teams are going to use it at its fullest..

So what this means...

 

-- Leaked specs are correct.

 or

-- Jonathan Blow's game has no plans to be heading to the NextBox

Marketing spin blah blah blah...but as I've said in several threads tonight...the biggest thing I liked about the Sony presser was that it was mostly about the games/game developers and social stuff directly related to games. Even at E3 2012, I thought Sony's presser was by far the most game centric, eventhough none of them were great. It seems to me that they figured out the key to sucess for PS4 is focusing on games and gamers.

 

MS is pushing this whole entertainment box/casual aspect and unless we see a complete 180 marketing wise, I'm sure the same will hold true for Durango.

I would assume they would use a custom Windows 8 RT kernal, very low foot print at 512mb.

I know the Ps4 is more powerful, but I think the goal like the 360 was to be very competitive in power with a unique archtecture, and come in at a lower price. Kinect being included has to be expensive though, then again so is the DDR5 in the ps4.

Doesn't make sense, with the huge amount of ram been DDR3,even with ESRAM they would not use most of the ram if the quantity would be over 5GB. Also Xindows RT tablets use 2GB of ram, and while they are shared with the GPU i don't think table GPU need more than 300MB for GPU Ram.
