in america, it might be considered controversial because the media like to make things seem more than what they are. its why you hear about americans overreacting to small things all the time.

They voluntarily tried to leave and you fought a war to prevent them. Were you drunk?

Isn't this the same site that just a few days ago posted an article titled "The 7 Most Intriguing Philosophical Arguments for the Existence of God"?

Picture this scenario: ALL of them were armed. And yet nobody got shot.

The disparity is permanent, my friend. That's thanks to the fact that PS4's GPU is over 50% more powerful than XBOX One's. Any gains in efficiency that are made on the lesser platform will be made on the more powerful platform, as well, and the disparity will remain. Both consoles effectively have the same CPU and…

The PS3 and Xbox 360 had very different architectures. The PS3 had a cell processor, and the Xbox 360 was a modified PowerPC if I remember correctly. The PS4 and Xbox One are both x86 which is the same as PC, so there's no "learning how to utilize each system" as they are the same architecture. The PS4 is simply more…

The X1 "may" be more durable. It "may" use higher quality plastics. But it is weaker. And as a gamer I don't want the non-gaming features and slower tech for more money.

lol, yes but Sony now also has the power of the Cloud and is launching before MS :P

Yeah, I agree with everything you said. The Xbone isn't harder to develop for because of its architecture, its hard to get cross platform parity because it has worse hardware. Originally the difference would not be as great since the PS4 would only have 4GB of RAM trading speed for capacity, at the last moment they…

The PS3 had a newly developed processor architecture that was powerful but not ideal for gaming. And it had a split memory design.

Lots of buthurt PC elitists here.

"Comparing this with the PC versions is unfair and bla bla bla".

Then you got into any other article and see them contantly talking about how X games on their 2012 hardware looks better than on consoles from 2006 specially after adding all the graphics enchanting mods is "fair"

Why? TotalBiscuit certainly wasn't ashamed to say he preffered the version that "ran on 60FPS on his PC over the Definitive Edition". You all weren't ashamed to say much the same thing when there were rumours that it would only ever run at 30FPS on consoles.

This isn't a comparison that Kotaku made. This is a…

The ps3 also runs The Last Of Us waaaaay better than the PC.

The PS4 has 1152 shader cores vs Xbox One 768 shader cores. Right out of the gate, with no optimization, the PS4, all things being equal code-wise, will perform better, its just in the hardware. Then we have the PS4 with dramatically faster memory than the Xbox One, so it will get benefits here (until) the devs…

i feel like xbox gamers are like religious people and playstation fans are like science people. no matter how much evidence there is on paper that playstation performs better, the stubborn xbox people come up with conspiracies about how gaming sites get bribed or how graphics and resolution dont matter... PS the new…

Sarcasm bro.

Moot point, because the PC doesn't have it.

Time to face reality, son.

Remember when the press was downplaying the PS4's hardware advantage? 60 fps and 30fps is a huge difference. At least the Xbox One is cheaper. :P

You hold onto that, you hold onto it tight and don't let it go.
