Well, no. 50X ain't gonna happen, that'd be insane. But considering that there was an 8 year gap between this gen and last gen I expected a 10X processing improvement. Instead it's 7X for PS4 and 5X for X1.

Halo on Xbox wowed me. Not just the way it looked, everything about it.

An ACTUAL edit: I get a kick out of this site routinely saying I've edited comments that I never edited. I figured this would be fixed by now but I guess GS isn't concerned about the forum's bugginess.

Hell no. It's an appropriate leap in RAM but the processing power is disappointing ... and on X1 it's shameful.

In western countries political correctness is 100X the problem religion is. It used to be we had plastic politicians, now we have plastic everybody.

I think it's done about as well on X1 as it could have but considering how good of a port I've heard the X360 version is I'm surprised by how low sales have been on that platform.

I've been surprised by how poorly this has sold on 360. Considering the huge sales COD and Halo does I thought this would do better than it did on that platform.

Always amazes me how much companies are willing to pay for websites and/or software, things that are not real, tangible things.

I've been saying forever that if forced into a choice framerate is more important than resolution. But that's starting at 720p. If you're all the way down to something like 480p then probably resolution is more important but with 720p and up framerate is more important hands down.

I haven't bought one of the new consoles yet. I'm waiting for a must-play game to come out before I do so. To me The Witcher 3 is that game and that's probably when I'll get a PS4 (For those thinking "Play it on PC" PC gaming SUCKS!). And it'll be a bittersweet day because it'll mark the first time I've owned a Sony console since PS1. I've been a Xbox fanboy since 2005 and changing sides now doesn't sit well with me but Don Mattrick screwed up X1's design to such an extent that I feel I have no real choice in the matter. From what I've seen so far Spencer seems to be infinitely more competent but he can't undo the poorly-designed box MS is gonna have to go with for the next several years.

This is the internet age when news of policy changes can spread in no time at all. Those policies are not what killed them. It game em' a lot of bad press early on but all of that was fixable. Everybody knows now that they reversed all of those things. It isn't a secret. The reason they're doing so poorly is the hardware design. That was a mistake they made that couldn't be reversed once the first console shipped.
