It would help if the US wasn't limited to just NPD numbers for video game sales. Europe and Japan generally get weekly sales numbers IIRC...
Without knowing what Sony and MS are shipping, we don't really know what the sales are like (as he points out). Sony could have just shipped a lot...
At launch, it couldn't scale anything properly. The original PS store was an html app, which was changed to a fancier native app...and I think it...
I think BC might have been nice for this generation shift. I haven't really looked back at this, but there seems to be many more AAA games being...
The gaming media is pretty horrible when it comes to stuff like this. I don't know what sites/articles you read, but it would not surprise me that...
Not really. There is some kind of "compatibility" mode in the hardware I guess (x86-64 can accept either x86 or x86-64 instructions IIRC), but...
What Svpernaut said is correct for the most part, and this isn't the first time. The 360 wasn't really BC with the original Xbox either, due to...
I think it is pretty optimistic to think this is something that could be supported with a firmware update. By the time that could even be well...
PS4 is the same way. They both decided the advantages to changing architectures was worth losing backwards compatibility.
I find it odd this isn't mentioned anywhere from what I can tell. Reviewers usually make a big deal out of this. I can see missing frame drops...
I actually don't like using launch games. It is the weakest evidence IMO, given all the variables. I prefer using the raw numbers, but then you...
Please explain how Xbox 360 had clearly inferior hardware. By all accounts, it sounds like Sony actually is ahead of Microsoft in terms of ease...
And I essentially stated as much. Nevertheless, there were similar cases last gen (CoD in general has always been a bit of a mess), but none with...
What? I'm talking about CoD, which is 1080p on PS4 and 720p on XBO. Am I cherry-picking? Sure, though that was kind of intentional (i.e., what...
I don't really agree, but rather than dig out the numbers, would you agree that this difference (however small you think it is) is still quite a...
The point I was making is that there is a substantial difference in overall power between the two systems. If you want to get into semantics, yes,...
This is actually not true. The gap is much bigger than PS3 and the 360, and that was evident with some of the launch games. We saw bigger gaps in...
While we're all having some fun with this, I would point out that I think there is a difference in discussing some of these things vs having some...
Some things to discuss if people actually want to: * Sales. Both consoles are pretty much supply constrained, though they are getting easier and...
I'd put Killzone above NBA 2K14. Even if it isn't great, I don't think it is broken. But I'd put other games above both (Warframe people....Warframe).
