Microsoft: PS4 is Not 30% More Powerful than Xbox One
As reported by VideoGamer, Microsoft's director of product planning, Albert Penello, says allegations of a 30 percent advantage for the PlayStation 4 are missing the bigger picture.
"I’m not dismissing raw performance. I’m stating--as I have stated from the beginning--that the performance delta between the two platforms is not as great as the raw numbers lead the average consumer to believe," wrote Penello in a NeoGAF post. "There are things about our system architecture not fully understood, and there are things about theirs as well, that bring the two systems into balance."
Penello's comments were in response to concerns over the internal components of the Xbox One. The alleged performance advantage is mostly attributed to the advanced GPU and RAM found in the PS4. Penello cited the experience of Microsoft programmers in explaining how the Xbox One will succeed, despite the numbers.
Microsoft's Larry "Major Nelson" Hryb agreed with Penello's points in a later Reddit post. "We have some of [the] smartest programmers in the world working on Xbox One," said Hryb. "I am very much looking forward to the next few months (and beyond) as the truth comes out."
The Xbox One launches on November 22, while the PS4 launches on November 15.

slapshot101 Is it really a shock that Microsoft would come out and say that the PS4 is not as good as the One. I mean I really can't trust this information. We will just have to wait until someone independent person gets there hands on both consoles and then runs test and compares the two in performance then we will know which one is better.
Then will we know? What are you trying to find out?

-Livepyroboy926 Why is it that Sony fanboys always come swarming and never give up fanboying? On TTG alone, on the Xbox topics, I will always see at least one Sony fanboy. When I go on the Playstation topics, I hardly ever see even 1 xbox fanboy. But yet, were the "immature little 8-10 year olds" to the Sony community. Sad
There was a bunch of PS threads swarmed by Xbox fanboys lol. Your talking out of your ass.
By the way this thread: LOL, PR over at Xbox don't even know, they are only claiming they are stronger due to DirectX. They have already claimed the PS4 was stronger. Games will still be about the same on both but you can't deny the PS4 is stronger, even devs are saying that.
"Even devs are saying that" are they ? the sony devs you mean? You're chatting bollocks again, give it a rest.
