Well, where’s YOUR input?

Yeah, I think the CPU and GPU similarities are the main things studios care about the most……slightly different memory setups. As for multiplats, games on both systems will look 95% the same…..boom. People need to chill out. Thx for explaining this, it helps with disinfo and FUD.

Thank you.

Hm, for once I can agree with you.

tell em!

Wow, the only guy with a brain in here, the rest are pathetic fanboys.

What he said is garbage. Wow, is every xbox fanboy this delusional? Now wonder you people would buy this crap. Cuz you are all that stupid.

More delusional fanboy made up nonsense. And 9 fanboy clowns agreeing with it. The X1 is on no way better. Deal with it, you stupid clowns. The PS4 had their ACE upped from 2 and 16 queues on the X1 to 8 and 64, had the volatile bit implemented and and extra bus that bypasses the GPUs cache. What did the X1 do? Add a tiny amount of eSRAM RAM, which takes entirely to much real estate on the die and cut into the GPUs CUs lowering it from 18/20 to 12/14 to make up for the incredibly low DDR3 bandwidth. Starman is obviously a fanboy clown, and the people agreeing with him are obvious desperate clowns themselves, And DE says this nonsense, while the game runs at 30fps on the X1 while running at 60fps on the PS4. Such political nonsense for all you suckers.

What!?

The guy’s referring to the differences in how they develop for the current consoles. The more alike they are the less you have to fork teams off to get code, 1) Running on them both, and 2) optimized for both towards the end of the development.

The 360 had it’s 6 h/w threaded PPU, whilst the PS3 had a PPU with only 2 h/w threads, but supplemented with the SPUs; one had an AMD gpu whilst the other had an Nvidia; 512MB unified ram in one, 256MB/256MB split ram in the other; and both using the in-order PowerPC architecture with it’s relaxed memory ordering, painful stalls and all.

Compare that the current consoles: both have 4(8) core AMD Jaguar-based cpu’s and AMD gcn gpu’s, simpler APU layout, 8GB unified memory, and the same familiar x86-64 simd architecture as on most desktops. Granted, there are a few h/w differences here and there, but in comparison to the previous gen you can actually get stuff up and running much quicker and easier this time around – quite a big deal when you have time and cost constraints.
