Pachter is a fool who knows little about games.
Both Scorpio and PS4 Pro were planned years ago, the difference in power is due to 1 year launch difference.
If Sony knew Scorpio would come 1 year later with 6 teraflops they would surely hold the Pro, but that can't be done in such a short time.
Xbox 360 US sales were better because it launched 1 year sooner than the PS3 and when the PS3 arrived it was more expensive with the same performance and even w...
What a joke this article is. Most games released in 2013 and 2014 were developed with 'possible' specs from PS4 and XOne. Most of the games are cross-gen, what made games like COD, Destiny, AC not look WAY better on next gen consoles. Lets wait for exclusives like Halo 5, Gears of War, Gran Turismo or Uncharted to have a better picture.
And comparing Sony and Microsoft is a joke. Sony has in PS4 a BIG bubble of oxygen.
You should do a little research, Xbox One got a media player app that allows usb media playback and dlna media streaming from a network server, you dont need windows media center anymore.
"What do they have to do with those ip's releasing on other platforms??? They don't own the exclusive rights to them, the developers do."
The thing is fanboys talk about loyalty and other stuff, that don't add up to reality. These games were value that people who bought Sony systems used to brag about, then they moved to 'Cell, blu-ray and more power' and now it's only 'more power'. Why would I buy a PS4 if I want to play Halo? see th...
Do you know 90%+ of people the will buy one of the consoles or both din't buy it yet? I am surprised Sony sold 7M consoles with no system seller game, the same with Xbox One. People will wait for games like Halo or GT.
dude how can you know who is buying what? Xbox One sales are trashing the X360 sales. There's way more people in the world than in 2005, and people can buy both consoles.
Do you know people can have both consoles? There's not a lot of developers that can afford to go exclusive unless they are payed good. Too early to pick any winner if you even can put things that way. Too many people in the world, 5M or 7 M its not even 10% of the last gen sales
What a joke this article, XOne is still not out in many countries like mine (Portugal) it costs 500€ not for everyone's pocket. Like me many people will wait, the same with PS4. It's all about the value for the money you put, I won't put 500€ just to play Fifa Forza and Titanfall.
The only thing these numbers 5M and 7M tell me is that Sony has a larger hard-core base, no surprise since PS2 sold almost 158M units.
