fake article is fake
read the articles above posted by The Captain...
even the Official Xbox magazine isn't making the claims this article is...the question was asked SPECIFICALLY in the context of Xbox 360 vs Xbone...
1. the PS4 simply has the more powerful GPU...that is a fact...just like the 360's GPU was more powerful than the PS3's...but the PS3 had the more powerful CPU...these are all facts...
2. minimal difference is still a difference...so if the PS4 offers the minimally better looking games...PLUS its $100 cheaper? thats a no brainer...
3. the "emotion engine" was the PS2...the Cell was much more powerful than the 360 CPU..PS3 exclusives showed t...
if by propaganda you mean the fact that the PS4 has the more powerful GPU...then yes
here is the problem with your main argument of showing lower powered consoles that won generations....
1. PS v N64
PS Release Date: December 3, 1994
N64 Release Date: June 23, 1996
the PlayStation had a year and a half head start on the N64...The PlayStation also offered CD based games instead of cartridges...the benefits here can NEVER be understated.
2. PS2 v Xbox
PS2 Release Date: March 4, 2000
there is enough incredibly incorrect information being spewed as "fact" in the comments of this article that it is startling...
@M0rz, @greenpowerz and @joe90...
You do realize that there are like 5 PS4 sku's in the top 20 right?...
When you combine all the preorders from the different sku's I bet your numbers play out a lite differently...
so a console that has an AMD APU...had dev kits that used discrete Nvidia GPU's??...
come on MS...do you think we are all that stupid??
of course THESE guys had no problem getting dev kits and had no hoops to jump through...they are the guys that used to head IW...the same studio that has had exclusive deals with MS this entire generation lol...
I find it quite funny how MS and IRS fanboys defend the "value" of the Xbone...but rewind to the launch of the PS3 when Sony released a console for $500/$600 when Sony's standalone Bluray players were retailing for $900+ and thenPS3 fanboys were laughed at for pointing to the "value" of the PS3...
Oh how times have changed huh? Unfortunately for MS...they are notnqctually offering the value, or the better hardware this time..
comparable =/= equal...
the PS3 and 360 have comparable power...but the 360 does multiplats better...and the PS3 does exclusives better...
graphics dont make games...but if youre talking multiplat games then the story and gameplay is the same...so the comparison then becomes the graphics...
if im going to plunk down $60 for a game...i want the version thats going to look/perform better...
@ Thunderhawkxbox
No, MS cannot change spec at this point without setting themselves back probably a year...its WAY too far along on the game to change just about any of the major hardware components...unless of course they want to push the launch back to late 2014...
@Heartnet
you really don't understand how games work do you??...
ALL games...i repeat ALL games use 100% of the power of both the PS3 and 360...what games d...
@Heartnet
you do realize youre completely wrong about "locking" the framerate on the vast majority of games right??
look at a Digital Foundry, or Lens of Truth comparison...say what you want about each sites biases, but the hard numbers are not debatable...rarely do games (especially ones that push limits) stay locked at their target framerate...
when the game engine starts to choke (for whatever reason) you get dropped frames, or ...
@Awi5951 i guess youre smarter than all the hardware techs at Sony and MS then...why don't you have a job doing this stuff???...oh wait...
how did i get any disagrees on my above post?....what did i say that was not completely factual?
"but the article it's talking about its CPU part alone not the GPU."
o'rly??!!??
straight from your article....
"While the CPU is powerful, the GPU is where the system gets its 52 GFLOP rating."
you fail...HARD....
we could continue on for days about how wrong you are regarding everything your saying here but its not worth anyone's time...just some simple google searches will s...
oh lets see your actual "proof" of the CPU's being weaker please...oh right, it doesn't exist lol
the link you provided for the APU specs is comical...
1. its a Bobcat...PS4 is Jaguar...
2. its a 2 core....PS4 is 8...
3. the article is measuring performance of the whole APU at 52Gflops!
4. did you actual read the article? check out the video at the end. APU that the article tests is designed to power "digital si...
not gonna lie...first ive heard of the storyline...and it actually turned me off to the game for some reason...
you might be right about those games not being system sellers to some...but I would wager the better looking/performing versions of Battlefield and CoD will sure help....
no?
if you go to the ps4 page on amazon..make sure youre signed in...you should be able to switch between the editions...
up at the top of the page it should say something like : order update you puchased this item on...
which edition does it say that for?
How about July 16th? awesome...sounds good to me
