I am a M$ fan and don't see the problem or why anyone else is concerned or has a problem with what I support or how I spend my freakin' money. I'm pretty sure anyone that is making my product choices their concern should be worried about themselves and why they care what I am buying since it is really only a consumer product.
CommonSenseGamer, you're wasting your breath by using facts with some of these people on G4 (looking @@faysal lame and uninformed posts!)
@faysal, please go and read the specs before you post your uninformed comments because YOU ARE the one that just made STUPID comments! the Tegra 5 is in a whole new realm that the Vita can't even touch and that's not a knock on the Vita, but just that the VIta is old tech now compared to Tegra 5.
Good Post, JsonHenry (Nice to see some people on here that read about underlying specs and design of hardware) - I think you are right on with the real battle being in the GPU's - it seems that due to the high wait cycles of GDDR5 (compared to DDR3) and sharing that bandwidth between the CPU and GPU then pile on the wait cycles of both those will hold back things back and is going negate it's advantages somewhat, however I do like the sound of the GDDR5.
Good stuff by Cliff!
I agree , I think he's ok. Of course, people tend to dislike people that don't agree instead of realizing people have different ideas.
Honestly I can't understand the big scare with always on - I think we have a bunch of broke asses worried about paying for their internet bill; then again, they somehow managed to post on here with their conspiracy scares.
@tommygunz37 - you are completely right. I remember back in the mid 90's when M$ was trying to get Nintendo online over in Japan and then trying to help Sega by offering them an OS for the dreamcast which they refused like idiots. Yeah the M$ box is meant to be more than a game machine, but I'm glad bc if I'm paying $400 or $500+ then I want something that fulfills all of my entertainment wants and my girlfriend's causul gaming needs. Microsoft has been advancing the console...
This article already seemed to be on fire
It is definitely more powerful than a PS2! However, it's screen isn't HD, it's 960x544.
Definitely a great design! Very forward thinking and introspective of Sony engineers to go back and realize and address the flaws of the PS3 and it's awkward last minute implementation of the PS3's GPU.
I bet the people worried about spending $500 on a game console, probably race to get the new Galaxy S4 or latest iPhone every year and don't think twice when they're weak from the giving blood and plasma just to scrounge up some cash. Or better yet, cut back the pot and cheetos then you can afford things and ,ay actually have more drive to work.
Yeah, I'd say its easy to focus on doing grass when there is only 4 characters on-screen - how can you even compare this to games like Crysis series and war games with much more going on?!!! Idiots comparing apple to oranges!
I plan on buying the next Xbox day one, so far because I am a huge Xbox fan; However, these rumors about not being able to play second-hand games may make me change my mind; I don't buy used gamed at all , but do share, trade, or even give games to friends and also have a family account for my young boys with their own live ID. IF I have to buy a game for each live ID or Xbox just so me or my boys can play the same game, I will definitely reconsider a next Xbox purchase - that would be ri...
HAHAha ... look at all the doubtful votes - must be from all the worried little Sony fans!!! I bet that's what the PS4 would've have a bunch of doubtful votes( or it could've had a ton of "for sure" votes - hard to tell with all the Sony fans on N4G) had been rumored to have 8gb of memory at the last second until Sony blew everyone away by announcing that in fact it would have 8 gb.
Good points. Funny how certain people so desperately want this to NOT be true. Not sure how many people remember, but the next Xbox has been rumored to have dual GPUS before which could've been mistaken for this dual dual APU setup.
Can't wait
calm before the storm
Yeah not sure what to expect with all the rumors flying. I don't buy used games, but I do have multiple 360's in my home with Live accounts for my little boys and HOPE very much than M$ doesn't hinder or punish me by not allowing me to play my game in different rooms on different accounts. That would be sad indeed - shouldn't have to buy a a game for each account or system when they all reside in my home owned by me.
oh no, M$ is in so much because they are keeping cool and quiet?! the Sony fans on here are wishing and hoping they're in trouble - lame.
@imsocool1234 - why are you sniffing his upper lip, clown?
@Skarlett Wow, thanks that informative reply! It had so much to do with what darthv72 and NYC_Gamer posted. I bet you did very well in school during group discussions @_@.
