There's more to it than just that. PS4 has other advantages as well.

PC gamers are used to saying "my rig can beat that" when a new console is announced, but as this article explains, that isn't always the case. Being faster on paper and faster in practice are 2 different things.

When John Carmack can't think of anything negative to say about PS4's architecture, you know Sony has done it right.

You hear that Microsoft? That doesn't mean bring A game!!!

I have the end all be all solution to Sony's issues with backwards compatibility, and Sony has already hinted they are at least considering these things. If you have bought a PSN game, the record is on your account that you own it, so you should be able to stream that game using the cloud to PS4. They already said they are working to make all PS3 games streamable for b/c. If you own disc based games, PS4's blu-ray drive will still read them, so pop the disc in, the drive reads the dis...

Kinect copied Eyetoy, what's your point? Nobody will deny Move copied Wiimote, but it also made it better. Taking an innovation and making it better is something that game companies have done for decades. Sony invented the CD, DVD, and Blu-Ray (helped invent it), but where's the idiot fanboys saying Microsoft and Nintendo stole those from them? You do know that Microsoft pays Sony a royalty for every Xbox sold because it can play DVDs? You know that motion sensing controllers first po...

Edonus, you are wrong. It does full body tracking, just like the eyetoy and eye before it did. It also tracks Move. It uses dual 3D camera (which kinect did NOT have, it had one standard and one infrared lens, but they did not see in stereoscopic 3D. Kinect got it's 3D info by projecting infrared grids onto the room and watching how they deform) to enhance both the full body tracking and the move tracking. Since both move and DS4 controllers are being motion tracked, the second camera is ...

The kinect comparisons come from 3D motion tracking, which until now was something not available on PlayStation (not full body, at least). Now we have it.

^No, Bungie said it'll launch day and date with Xbox on Ps3 and Ps4, however PS4 will also have exclusive content.

Sony no doubt has changed the gaming industry. It wouldn't be what it is today without them.

They don't even know what happened. They tried saying he was using an AR-15 to shoot those kids, then later that same AR-15 was seen on video being pulled out of the trunk of his car (which he never made it to, he shot himself before making it out of the school). They then said he acted alone, and now are being forced to admit that there very well may have been an accomplice or two that got away. We can't even trust the details that he was a gamer at this point... These people don...

Not sure where you got that info. Wii U's GPU still gets smoked by both "Durango" and "Orbis". According to the leaks Durango's GPU is a bit weaker than PS4/Orbis... lacking 2 shader cores and 4 compute cores if I remember right (I think Durango has 12 and orbis 18). Maybe even a slower clock speed as well, but I don't remember the specifics.

Edit: Looks like I was right. From Eurogamer:

"Here's where we see our first...

However, when you have several sources confirming the devkit details were not bogus, it typically means his house was raided because he really did have a devkit and really did try to break the law by selling it on ebay. They obviously didn't care so much about the leaks as much as they did him trying to profit from them, hence why Ebay and PayPal were cited on the warrant. Him trying to profit from it is where he crossed the line. The idiot should have known better.

The Mayans were not wrong, as they never predicted any sort of end to anything other than an era. Only the more gullible among us bought into the History Channel/internet hype that we were all going to have meteors rain down on our heads as our poles shifted on Dec 21 2012. A tiny bit of research into what they believed is all it takes to see how off the mark that was.

PS3 continues to outsell worldwide and already has outshipped 360, so I wouldn't say "second gen and MS are on top", when such a statement is only localized to 2 markets vs. the entire globe.

4868d ago 11 agree15 disagreeView comment

You don't even have to wait that long, EA already said it isn't targeting Wii U with it's next gen plans due to it's lack of power.

Tell that to wii u's sales.

For every one person that bought it, 5 ripped it off... R* would rather let the console versions sell through their peak first, then they may consider putting it out on PC.

We also said that MS would never commit suicide by abandoning a focus on exclusive core titles in favor of casual motion titles.

Look how that worked out. Not saying they'd do the whole always online/no used games thing, but I wouldn't put it past them either.

Did we really need an article to explain how such a thing would be an advantage for Sony? Kinda stating the obvious.

As for the Sony patent, they also had a similar patent when PS3 launched that never saw the light of day. Patents mean nothing.
