Proof That PS4 Is A Better Gaming Console Than The XBoner1

[EduardPech]

Why is there no comparison of the GPU in this video? Are graphics not worth mentioning for gaming consoles?

[nathanenright]

well having my 12 core amd and 16 gb of ram and 2 tb in my pc i have no need for theeze but if i had to take one it would be ps4

[stamoulis]

Same here.Born in 1993 and got my PS and PS1 when i was 5 years old.Literally grew up with Playstation

[knightrich]

for the record where did you get your spec facts from ? They have not been confirmed by microsoft in anyway. They have only said they have 8 gb of ram (not saying what type of ram) and 32 bit es ram

[johnjames]

With the PS4 when you switch storage devices can you transfer data onto the new one?

[viDXLvi]

Please excuse my idiocy, but the Ps4 can record gameplay by itself? Or do you still require a game capture card? You also stated that ps4 can recored 15 minutes of gameplay, does this mean online gameplay as well?

" "Flexible Memory" is memory managed by the PS4 OS on the game's behalf, and allows games to use some very nice FreeBSD virtual memory functionality. However this memory is 100 per cent the game's memory, and is never used by the OS" - Sony.

"But to be clear, of the 8GB of GDDR5 on PS4, our contention is that 5GB of it is available to developers." - Richard Leadbetter, the guy who wrote the original article.

You were saying?

[comgeturs]

I'm assuming you used the new controller already?

[yearsdemocides]

The "3 gigs" number for the OS is misleading. Xbox One uses DirectX as an internal OS function, whereas PS4 counts it as a function external to the OS. in all likelyness OpenGL + functions will use 2 gigs, probably more as DirectX is more streamlined, and operates as a controller for input/output/sound functions.
I think that both consoles will perform relatively similar after launch. John Carmack said the systems are basicly the same, he sortof invented 3d games so ill go with him on that one

[moosheep]

Now, do any games actually use over 4GB on PC?

[QOTSAPT]

Let's say the one may be mathematically limited on ram space but the fact that both boast virtually the same processing power should be more significant unfortunately I haven't seen anything regarding their graphical units.

[brendan]

I'm not biased but don't you think that if they take the 1gb of ram from the operating system to play games it will fuck up the Ps4 when you pause the game and try to pull up something like party chat for example?

[zachharmer]

He left out something in the video, the $499 price on the Xbox One is there because it comes with the Kinect camera. The $399 price on the PS4 is because the camera for the PS4 is sold separately, not in the bundle in other words. We can all assume with Sony they will definitely sell the camera separately for a hefty amount, thus making the entire package cost more or equal to the Xbox One.

[QOTSAPT]

You forgot to mention that Kinect is included in the ONE and Move is not included in the 4.

[grimsey]

If you are going to mention the difference in price, you ought to also mention that one console comes with a motion sensor and one does not.

[x]

Actually Sony released a statement suggesting it's either 3 or 2.5GBs, so X1 and PS4 are still basically the same on available ram.

[stephenrussell]

how is it dumb? please go on id like to hear your explanation of your opinion

[duckfeetbiglugs]

They also forgot to mention that the x1 has wifi direct among other things and its also been said that you can actually run your Xbox 360 or pc through the Hdmi in port.
