The xbox one was build around a vision MS had,that vision was that Kinect would catch on most like the Wii motion did,they sacrifice performance of the machine to be able to pack in Kinect and fulfill that vision,which was a heavy TV oriented vision with emphasis on Kinect as its core center,that UI heavily focus on kinect basically says it all.
I think 2 things lead MS to this,one xbox live users actually spending more time on netflix than playing games like MS it self reported,and 2 the heavy success of the wii which was a huge boom at first and was impossible to ignore even by sony.
This lead MS into making a weaker console that could pack Kinect in,this leave MS into having DDR3 instead of the more expensive and better GDDR5,and it also make MS chose a weaker GPU.
There is no secret sauce on xbox one,there is non nothing hidden under NDA no secret cloud boost,no secret DX12 boost the xbox one is what it is a 7770 like console performance wise.
I think lemmings need to make piece with this already and move on,the xbox one doesn't need a R290 to have great games,sure its multiplatforms will be gimped but regardless of that any console multiplatform will be gimped compare to PC that include PS4 ones,
I make this thread because some of you look some how desperate,claiming the xbox one is different to a PC,that the xbox one GPU can't be measure by one on PC,that the xbox one is different to a PC just because of the way its components are arrange.
That the magical cloud will help the xbox one over come the PS4,that DX12 will deliver some secret performance boost.
Or like one clown is parading all over the place that the xbox one has some secret hardware protected by NDA..lol
The xbox one will not get a boost in performance,but it doesn't need it in the first place last gen highest rated games and basically still the highest rated game of all time were done on Wii Mario Galaxy,so hardware is irrelevant to a point when making great games.
And i say to a point because better hardware allow for more real world bigger ones and more dynamic things,but in that way the xbox one is fine,so please stop making this joke arguments,they will not pay off and you will look sad when the next game that pop up show resolution or frame advantage on PS4,the xbox one doesn't need to be more powerful than the PS4 to have great games or better than the PS4 it just need talent.
PS.Topic name Edit to make happy a grammatical Nazi.
