Huh? What am I ignoring?
Your thread is silly on multiple counts as I already specified. As to your opinion, its framed as absolute i.e. fact ("its mandatory")
As stated before, its moot at this point as specs are probably final or close to final, contracts are signed, etc. Nintendo has hanging out with some of the worse specs, generally speaking since the N64. Microsoft generally doesn't give two shits about selling plastic.

Xbox has been coming with legit BANGERS, bro!! Gamepass is a system seller on its own. Just putting that out there...

Thats MS not Xbox. I'd be very surprised that any of those games, 'bro', is exclusive to Xbox.

Just my two bits having gamed and grown up through that era, and having tried each system, including Intellivision -- ColecoVision FTW especially with gameplay, Atari adapter, and so many controllers to play everything, even before the Adam came around.
Coleco influenced the MSX, NES, and the SG-1000/SMS and the 7800. It's the console where video games really started getting things down which is why it still has such a big fan base while the Intellivision is fading away outside some original titles.
Now if only they released that horizontal controller instead of cancelling it.

To expand off of my previous post about jumping to Xbox...
(NOTE: This is JUST my personal views/thoughts, not saying it speaks for anyone else.)
XBox: Extremely fucking KILLING IT with Game Pass Ultimate -- used to buy several games a year, now I barely have to buy much except outliers. (Before knocking it and goalpost shifting, remember argument of "price".)
As for game selection supposedly lacking, maybe I jumped during a time of perfect star alignment, but I'm constantly torn on which of my dozens of back-logged games to play, and I've owned Xbox a hair over a year.
Sony/PS: Was loyal to them all along, but lately feels like they've been subtly/not-subtly edging sides in politics/media/culture. Now, THIS IS JUST ME, a lot of their first party games recently seemed/felt similar, but I've been noticing more how they seem like vehicles meant to deliver the shoehorned current SJW message-in-a-bottle -- I mean Detroit, *SERIOUSLY*, I've 10/10 loved every other QD games, and even though I hate to say I'm triggered, yeah, Detroit == TRIGGERED. Not to mention some recent brush ups between Sony and censorship.
Then having used GPU and PS Now regularly, PS Now doesn't reach into the same league at all.
Again, just some of my own random thoughts.

Agreed. Unless Xbox has true console exclusives, I see no reason to buy one given my use case. This holds true for the PS4, which I have to purely to just play exclusives.

When did this shift from an informed video game hobbyist site to basically the internet equivalent of children on a playground making shit up and presenting it as fact?
"The PS4 has to be at least as good as the XBox because if it doesn't appeal to me in my ignorance of tech and spec, it will surely fail globally. Just my 2 cents."
You can have your two cents back. You overpaid.

Prior to the X? As I posted earlier, I have a One S and original PS4, and One S absolutely blows the doors off of it.Not just in storage, but also PS4 chugs and hiccups at times, and completely gave up on PS4 browser when most the time stuff would refuse to load with out of memory error -- in the BROWSER -- out of memory. :O

What? 360 sold less than PS3 and WAY less than Wii.
Welcome to the power of marketing hype brainwashing the masses. We still have this gem of a thread before PS4 released.
Your predictions for The Big Three at the end of The Next Generation.
The present: we have some idea of where Nintendo are going with the Wii U and 3DS. We've seen Sony's next-gen handheld, but have nothing concrete on either Sony or Microsoft's home console offerings. We're living in an explosion of mobile phone gaming, and Facebook games have become serious...

I will say that Microsoft has made a habit of throwing money at market share lately. Mind you...they can do that...I'm not knockin em for it. They are experimenting...I'm glad somebody is on this level. They threw money at a bunch of studios...if Hellblade II is any indication, it seems they made a good investment, no denying that. They threw money at streamers, Shroud, Ninja and Ewok...the jury is still out on that one, but I don't think they are trying to steal viewers as much as they are trying to bend the narrative to being Twitch Vs Mixer...even though YouTube and Facebook are both bigger than Mixer in the streaming universe. Funny thing is...it's kinda working. Only question is what's the next step.
Now who's to say they won't eat console cost to remain at $500? I think it's very very likely that this would be the case.

I definitely think they're willing to play the long game and takes the loss on hardware with the most powerful box. They seem to be very aggressive these days. And they arent finished! E3 and the next reveal event are going to be instrumental in their long term goals. I dont think hardware will be their only metric of success (I'm pretty much sure of it at this point...) but the console can serve as a trojan horse in order to get more people into their ecosystem. They'll go big come next gen. I'm sure of it.

Hrm, prolly more straight forward to just say OG PS4 more powerful than OG X1 -- rather than framing it in a way that seems misleading.

My guess is that the difference is going to be less than it was compared to the standard xb1 and ps4. And the differences that are there are going to be unnoticeable to most due to diminishing returns. Good news for most gamers, bad news for teenaged fanboys looking for something to brag about concerning their console of choice.

Correct. The only reason why the Xbox One X has a much more capable GPU is because it targeted a higher price point and was released a year after the PS4 Pro. I'm going to make an assumption that both Sony and Microsoft are targeting a price range of $400-500 and will release within the same time frame. If my assumptions are true, they will be very similar.
