[QUOTE="Wickerman777"]You're bringing up the current gen but imo there's more separating Xbox One and PS4 than there is PS3 and Xbox 360 ... quite a bit more.clone01

The problem with PS3 is that it had a lot of theoretical advantages but those advantages rarely showed up in real-world situations because the hardware design was so complicated. But PS4 doesn't have that problem. Just like the PS3 it has the edge on paper but the big difference this time is that the architecture is simplistic as well.

Heres my prediction.  XBox One and PS4 will release largely the same library, and the games will look and play about the same.  I might be wrong, guess we will see in the coming gen.

Probably at first. But a year or two after launch the difference will be pretty easy to notice. But hey, maybe that's all the time MS will need to build up momentum.

Probably the horribly dissapointing launch titles. Everyone is expecting a revolution...all they're going to get is a step.

It was like that the last time too despite the current gen being a huge leap over the previous one technically. Wasn't until Gears of War came out that people really got to see the difference. There will be some title for one of these systems that ends up doing the same thing eventually.

Since i don't care about graphics that i have been experiencing on my PC for several years, i have both systems pre ordered and plan to enjoy the exclusive titles they offer.  Have Dead Rising 3 and Forza pre ordered for Xbox One and Killzone Shadow Fall preordered on PS4.   I bought a PS4 bundle with the camera.  I just felt like i needed the whole package.  I am very excited for November.  

 

BTW Tiger Direct is still doing PS4 pre orders that will arrive on day one.

I wonder what kind of resources Sony is gonna set aside to run that camera. Would have to be something. I don't think it has custom chips for it like Xbox One does. If it does I haven't heard about it yet (Or forgot about it. Would be easy I suppose since Sony's camera doesn't get talked about nearly as much as Kinect).

Probably already posted but MS recently responded with this:

Ten years ago, you could argue that a consoles power was summed up in terms of a few of its specs, but Xbox One is designed as a powerful machine to deliver the best blockbuster games today and for the next decade.

Xbox One architecture is much more complex than what any single figure can convey. It was designed with balanced performance in mind, and we think the games we continue to show running on near-final hardware demonstrate that performance. In the end, well let the consoles and their games speak for themselves.

Look, you guys screwed up the hardware ... period! It has DDR3, ESRAM, and data move engines in it when it doesn't need to because you weren't able to accurately predict that 8 gigs of GDDR5 would be possible in 2013. Additionally, you've got other stuff eating up even more of the APU space like audio chips because you've got such a hard-on for Kinect. The APU is just as big and expensive as PS4's APU but its graphics processing is significantly weaker because you've got so much unnessary crap on it. You found out about this disparity many months before launch and you did NOTHING about it save for some meaningless upclocks, something a kid can do to his/her computer. You made your bed, now lay in it. I preferred it when MS just claimed that power doesn't matter. But all this bs about the consoles being technically equal is just that ... bs. MS messed up the design of the innards of this console as badly as Sony did the PS3. They've managed to pay the same thing for 30%-50% less power and they act amazed that anyone questions them about it.

[QUOTE="Floppy_Jim"]We're not stupid, EDGE. Major Nelson and Albert Penello have already debunked this, the two consoles are equal.MSXBOX4EVER

No matter how ya slice it 12 Southern Islands CUs ain't gonna perform the same as 18 of them. They just won't.

Yeah Floppy Gym. That will teach you for being 100% serious. 

He might have been being sarcastic but the fact still stands for anyone that wants to seriously claim the same thing.

Good idea cuz I've read numerous articles that say that games with demos sell quite a bit worse than games without them.

Kinect really is an impressive piece of technology. It's just not for gamers unless you're into singing and dancing games. And if you are, you might as well go to a f*cking karaokee bar.

Here's the ep they used it on:

Well, if they were impressed with that they'll probably love Kinect 2.

Microsoft Kinect: Proving the afterlife. Who knew? :)

eHH, 42 min? This better not be one of those shows that goes like, "OMG, the door closed behind me. It was a ghost and not the wind!!!"

Nah, it's better than that. Lot better than Ghost Hunters. But it's impossible from where you're sitting to know for sure if they're faking stuff or not.
