Well its simply less powerful. Many games need to make sacrifices in aspects of their graphics and possibly even gameplay. So I think that people should choose the more powerful system - ps4.
This topic is locked from further discussion.
If it were a night and day difference between these consoles, say the disparity from the Wii U to the Xbox One, I would be inclined to agree OP. However the real world practical application differences and results between the Xbox One and PlayStation 4 are so minute in reality that it's not even worth bringing up.
The Xbox One and PlayStation 4 are iterative of each other, they're not some drastically different technology. What matters is experience and what the system brings to the table that makes you happy, not exaggerated performance figures, not exaggerated graphical fidelity and not minuscule nit picks.
Its not power, that's just a plus remember most casuals don't even know the general specs of these machines but they do remember and associate certain games to these systems

That's the problem I have with this generation, there's so many casual gamers who don't really know or understand what these technical and graphical output capabilities actually mean in reality. and they are blowing them completely out of proportion.
Whoever started this thread has just moved out of a cave hidden deep underground and somehow thinks it's launch day for both consoles. So yeah, cut him slack for either a) hiding underground all this time (which is cool) or b) just being incredibly fucking stupid.
What sort of insecurities are required to make these threads?
Isn't this exactly the right place for these threads, though?
Even first party PlayStation developers make compromises, just how many games on the PS4 are running at 1080p and 60fps (let alone more) and Ultra settings? Oh that's right, not a single one. Hell there aren't any PS4 games that run on Ultra equivalent and by far the majority are 30 fps. You call that powerful? All gen 8 consoles are weak in comparison to modern hardware.
I game on max settings at 1440p and 60fps to 144fps on all games and I'm still well short of the maximum power of some PC's.

No, no it's not. He put ZERO thought into his thread. Just "PS4 is more powerful". Everyone knows that by now but the differences are so small only cows would care. I mean, show me game play differences because of the power disparity? The TC said gameplay differences as well as graphical. So, show me the gameplay differences.
The Xbone is weaker than the PS4? Never even knew that till now. Selling my Xbone for a PS4 as I'm typing this.

To be fair, he saidpossibly in gameplay. He didn't claim the gameplay part was a certainty.
I'm not trying to defend this lousy thread or anything, but this is System Wars. Seems like the right place to talk about the PS4 being more powerful than the Xbox.
PS: Why so salty?
@hernandezzzz: but he's not trying to talk about it. He hasn't even responded. This is an old argument. This is very poor flame bait.
Equivalent to making a thread about the sky being blue.

Explain how the power difference would effect gameplay between the 2 in any game?
I'm salty for pointing out a flamebait thread? Ummm you cows are so predicable.

Never understood why the powers that be allow shitty threads like this to exist while I've seen much better thought out threads locked up for petty reasons.

He's already gotten NyaDC -- the biggest lem on the forum -- to go on damage-control mode. I'd say that's a pretty good start.
@kingtito said:Explain how the power difference would effect gameplay
I'm not going to explain shit. I merely pointed out that he used the word "possibly."
And you immediately went full lem super-defense mode as if he had claimed it was a fact. You read what you want to read, I guess.
@hernandezzzz: ok that only proves my points, it's flame bait, not discussion thread.
What are you even trying to argue?

I'm trying to argue that this is the place for Wars, between Systems (and their fans). Pretty stupid, by definition.
And the sad part is that this thread is possibly more fitting for this specific forum, than anything else on the front page.
Edit: And that's the last I'll say about this, because quite frankly, it's not my thread and I don't feel like being moderated for going off on a tangent.
@hernandezzzz: except flame bait threads aren't allowed. This place needs well thought put threads, hell even if it's stupid there should be more effort put into than this.
This place needs standards.

ITT: Rationally explaining things as they are and pointing out stupidity equates to damage control...

Except for the fact that you ARE trying to defend this lousy thread.
This thread is just terrible. Even by system wars standards.
Lol, tell me about it... :(
And if the only reason that a person would pick a PS4 over an Xbone is because of the slight power difference, that's pretty dumb imo.
They both suck. The GPUs are disappointing but the CPUs are a disaster. Perhaps GPGPU will help if anyone ever decides to use it. PS4 has a clear advantage there with its 8 ACE units vs X1's 2. And well, how the hell will anyone do GPGPU on X1 anyway? There's barely enough power for graphics as it is so I don't see anyone wanting to subtract from that even more by dedicating some of those resources to compute.

Yes they are blowing it out of proportion i mean 720p vs 1080p is nothing,now if it was like last gen where the XBO 360 was killing the PS3 doing 720p while the PS3 did 640p now that is a huge gap a very huge huge gap,i remember how lemmings use to brag about it in both GTA4 and RDR as well.
But thank god 720p vs 1080p and 900p vs 1080p is nothing....lol
Filthy Rat Lemmings know that their ghetto console is bum juice and it rocks them to their very core. Gaylo 5 is looking like another dud too. Microsoft needs to get back to making spreadsheets and get the **** out of the console business. lol!
Actually many "lemmings" know that X1's hardware is shit. The amusing part is that so many Sony loyalists fail to recognize that their console's hardware sucks only slightly less. Y'all make out like one is a turd and the other is gold. Nope, they're both turds. PS4 may be a somewhat more firm, less repugnant turd but it's a turd nonetheless.

Enjoy that 1080p Witcher 3 at 19 fps, ha ha.
