You're talking games, I'm talking specifically the system. We all know the game library matters too, but quite honestly, that's always personal preference.How is that exactly? Their E3 presentation was all flash and no bang. Not impressive. However, Sony and Nintendo showed actual impressive games.
The hardware specs are always taken straight from the manufacturer. Generally AMD are as diligent as Nvidia or Intel at reporting them accurately. 6 TFLOPS is equivalent to a 980 Ti, and prices on them before the bit mining caused prices to go up got as low as $400. You factor in that AMD charges less than Nvidia, and that these are mass produced APUs for consoles, which typically are sold at a small loss to get customers, and it's plenty feasible that such graphics power would be put in a console that they've already said will cost $500.And if you believe that nonsense, I've got a bridge in Brooklyn I want to sell you... Those are very generous theoretical numbers.
This is where you are seriously out of the loop.Are you sure? PS4Pro does in fact have similar specs that are, by very definition, close.
1. The One X APU is 2.3Ghz x86, the PS4 Pro is 2.1GHz Jaguar
2. The One X APU is 6 TFLOPs capable, the PS4 Pro only 4.2
3. The One X has 12GB GDDR5, the PS4 Pro only 8GB
4. The One X has a 4K/HDR Blu-ray drive, the PS4 Pro a 1080p Blu-ray/DVD
Just one of many sources on this: https://www.cnet.com/news/xbox-one-x-vs-ps4-pro/
That is $100 well spent in my opinion. Some are implying the added $100 price point will mean most won't buy it, but I disagree. There are tons of kids now considering dabbling into PC gaming that would spend their money better on a $500 One X.
They've all been good points, you just aren't up to speed enough on the subject to recognize it.Now that is an excellent point...
They have gained back most of the trust they lost at the launch of Xone when they fired Mattrick and put Spencer in charge. They're much better at listening to what gamers want in a console system now, better than Sony in fact. This is really the first time a console manufacturer has offered spec on par with mid to high end PCs, and KB/M support as well. The only thing that remains to be seen is how extensive the KB/M support is.you forget one critical thing, trust. Microsoft has lost the trust of the public. They are losing their audience in a very serious way. Sony, Nintendo, Google and Apple are where people are going because those companies are far more trustworthy.
I'm not going to water this down to game libraries though. I mean hell, Nintendo has big sales, but they're still clinging to a library of games that is mostly ancient rehashed titles. Serious gamers don't play kiddie games.
