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.

I think both consoles are just as good, I don't why they keep trying to bring each other down.

Xbox is always going to be better... i've never seen any competition use a Playstation lmao its just trash the only thing people love about it is small features that mean little to nothing aside from being free internet... which is a huge downfall because they cant progress and put as much protection and changes as Xbox can and is lol i mean look DLC doesnt get to them until a month after we get it they've been hacked how many times, they wont have dedicated servers and there key argument was "we have used games" lol they lost Xbox is better always has always will lol playstation is just for casual gamers that arent on it enough to want to buy a subscription to further researches and advancements anyways

I just wished that both companies would release everything. That way there are no secrets and false truths.

TurtleOrgans People need to realize that game devs arnt gonna make it noticeable better on one console and not the other. Look at current gen comparisons you can see like 1 better shadow here and there.
Exactly, but nobody understand that and they think the PS4 will look better when that's not the case at all.

Obviously, Sony fanboys like to over exaggerate. Plus MP will run better on the xbox just like they ran better on the 360 due to the direct x11
