I didn't bother reading the article..but if it's by Peter Bright then I would venture he pulled them out of his ass
Everyone needs to stop reading articles already. We all know about the next gen systems. F*ck, get over it and just play.
Yeah the gap between PS4 and XB1 is larger than 360 and PS3. But they got the general idea right, that PS4's GPU gives it an advantage. It's typical for GAF to flip out over things like that.
They also freaked out because of the claim that you can't see the diff between 720p and 900p from 10 feet away. Well it depends on the tv size and how many mosaic patterns/jaggies are going on, which are visible from farther away. 10 feet is pretty far away.

I've used that gif before, tonight even over at GAF. lol http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=89377510&postcount=79
I just want the BS to end. These will be some exciting weeks ahead of us all.
They are saying the gap is smaller because the only difference will be resolution but in past they had different tech going on in the game engines.so basically the same IQ other than resolution unlike the past....or I could be reading it wrong.
Well the ~50% TF gap means devs can afford to run PS4 games at a higher res stepping (720 to 900, or 900 to 1080), but not much else. Those steppings already equal ~50% more pixels to be rendered.
They could also put that power towards better framerate or more IQ, but devs are less likely to do that because it requires more work on the game code.
So basically if you don't care about the diff between 720 and 900, or 900 and 1080, you don't have much to worry about.

Didn't realize you dictated the market.
Another sterling post from Cutting to be sure. LMAO.
Everyone with eyes that work can see the difference between 1080p and 720p.
Gifs don't do neither console justice come on man!
I dunno... XBO's are still available where PS4's been sold out.. Its early though so lets sit back and watch
Weird because what you said sounded like since you didn't like the Ones services the 4 was gonna be a juggernaut.
System power has never mattered. The Xbox was most powerful and it was in last place. The Triple was more powerful and it was in last place. The Genesis was the most powerful, last place. Dreamcast, Neogeo, PSP, Vita, Jaguar. Anyone seeing a pattern?
Anything is possible but I think the WiiU might buck the trend this gen. We will know in a year or two how MS and Sony will do.
Honest prediction, void of any fanboyism. Nintendo will be third, but manage to ultimately make a profit. As for X1 and PS4, it really depends on who captures the "imagination" of the gamer world. Neither are exactly "pure" gaming machines since they'll have internet and multimedia features up the wazoo. X1 might have the edge if they can produce great TV content, but I see very similar sales like what we have today making the fanwars even more banal.
Agreed. We could see either one pull it out this Gen. I see more of the same with sales almost identical for both MS and Sony but there are so many unknown variables out there. Supply, game delays, hardware/software faults, online issues and so on. Only time will tell.
My man.
MS' fate will be dictated by how well they do in North America. They need to be the console of choice over here.
It always does.
