Microsoft cannot do anything if they didn't know anything about the specs of Sony, or didn't care you cannot just magic up a new APU. This idea they wouldn't allow something to happen is ridiculous and shows a clear misunderstanding of the industry.

I think MS was well aware of the 1.8TFLOP GPU number from Sony.

The only surprise was the 8GB GDDR5 switch.
 
How are they going to fit all of Usher's backing dancers, the trapeze artists and fourteen Kinect 2.0 units into a tent that small?
 
Then we can conversely say that Sony was well aware of what Microsoft was and Is doing, and both cleary don't care.

1.8TFLOP is a comfortable spot to aim for.

MS just aimed really low for reasons unknown. It also doesn't make any sense since Thurrott claims the next box will still be expensive.

misunderstanding of the industry?

u really think that sony didnt know ms specs and that ms dont know sony specs!?!?
r u serious!?!?!
ms and sony ..r "chained" to developers graphics engines...
and devs r chained to ms and sony machines

50% of more power describe a big difference that its hard to keep hide in 3party games and in first party
MOST games run build around unreal engine / crytek engine
both in DEEEP ...relation with ms (can i say DEEEPER than sony???)...if u think that they didnt give them EXACTLY a target for the entire gen....(and not just for the first year)..

Microsoft had no choice it was too far in for them to do anything to change, vgleaks is from last feburary and any changes then means next year release if not later.
 
More spec discussion

i can do it

but i bet that there will never be 50% of power difference...

10-15% at max (more likely less)

maybe in favour of xbox maybe of ps4

Raw specs?. 50% power difference in what regard.

I think there won't be a significant specification change.

No way, I think we will see 100 to 200% more than PS4. I suspect MS will get different kind, PowerPC, 16 core CPU etc...
 
Microsoft will not talk numbers on the 21st. This is not a developers event like SONY. This is a marketing event. Expect phrases like 'the best console that has ever been made'.
 
Assuming we get specs - if they really are inferior to Sony's I can't see Microsoft making a song and dance about them.

Would create a hilarious scenario:

Imagine all the next gen engines were actually made with PS4 & PC in mind.

Durango just gets the ghetto downports.


MS reveals Call of Duty: Ghosts

Audience: Who cares! It'll run better on PS4 anyway!

Sony's event was a developer's event? I'm not sure that developers got much out of hearing that PS4 has a 'supercharged PC architecture' or a gameplay demo of Killzone.

Blastoise is just making stuff up.

The funniest part was some insiders on here saying that Sony would not discuss specs.
 
That's it? The PS4 reveal at least had the Hammerstein Ballroom. This is almost on the scale of the MS Surface reveal in the hangar.

So the size of the venue somehow affects what's in the console and which games it has?

What is with Sony fans and dick waving? Seriously.
 
The only thing they can trash the thread right now
I don't think specs crossed my mind once when I was deciding whether to buy a 360 or PS3. It's just so completely and utterly irrelevant to gaming. I know I'm going to get crucified for that comment but fuck it.

"Halo 5 looks amazing but I just can't get over that 176GB/sec bandwidth in PS4!"
- nobody ever
 
I think this generation, more than ever, specs aren't going to matter. Every rumour and leak we've heard puts the PS4 and next Xbox at roughly the same level. Whatever difference there is will be so slight that it probably won't make a difference.
