Re: Talking Point: How Have This Week's Delays Affected Your Anticipation for PS4?

If they delayed Driveclub for quality issues then they've done it for the right reason in my book. Besides there is always NFS Rivals. Polygon are saying that the PS4 version looks better than the PC version. Next year will be amazing for exclusives on PS4. Infamous SS, Driveclub and The Order will keep me busy not to mention the third party releases. Still sticking with my PS4 pre-order. Don't forget Watchdogs is also delayed on X1.

Re: Talking Point: What Are Your Thoughts on the PS4's Launch Lineup?

I voted for good, but I also commend Sony's strategy of not having too much out at launch. X1 seems to have blown it's stack too early. February will see the release of Infamous Second Son which could well be a system seller. People are judging PS4's line-up against Msoft's offerings mostly because of Titanfall, while forgetting that it isn't even a launch game.

The improvements Evolution Studios have made to Driveclub are huge and the overall design of the game is a bit more forward thinking than the same old Forza formula. Driveclub has much more going on in terms of graphics and game design.

@Reverend_Skeeve The problem is that when you go on other gaming sites you get a lot of Msoft fans saying "it's not 60fps PS4 sux" kind of thing. Stupid really, especially when you consider that this game has a lot more going on. I guess the marketing departments need 60fps more than we do because this already looks awesome. That's why I prefer this site now, it's a lot more civilized.

Re: Xbox One Developer Concedes That PS4 Is More Powerful

OrbitScant

I think some people are underestimating just how much more powerful PS4 actually is. Yes it has 50% more shader cores, but it has 100% more render outputs (ROPS), this equates to twice the fill rate. But the real killer feature of PS4 is it's ability for fine grain asynchronous compute. It can handle 64 separate sources of compute commands where X1 only has around 4 separate sources. This gives an advantage of around 16 x the performance. PS4 is considerably more powerful than X1.
