This might be a false alarm for you guys but just read it. By reading it, if I could recall...PlayStation 4 has eight cores too right? Supported by AMD?

Here, here...

Here's another spy that AMD has been working with.

Microsoft's XBOX 720.

Read the info then tell me what you guys think.

I know it isn't official statement from Microsoft itself but I just want to know one thing, will it be better than PlayStation 4?

If no more Xbox Gold membership, then it will be better..

If it is backward compatible with Xbox360 games, then it would be MUCH better..

Even Sony is trying to follow this online model for more profit making..... by introducing PSN+

This is like dreaming of riding unicorn before you sleep.

Anyway, for Xbox720, I am just hoping that the built-in adapter can support 300mbps at least.

More information at E3 this June..or if I can find more, I'll post it here for you guys though.

But question,aren't specs IDENTICALLY the same as PlayStation 4? Except no Blu-ray drive. Sticking to the old school DVD drive.

Same CPU and GPU as PS4... I guess it's expected. Everyone dumping the superior Power Architecture for x86-64. Feel sad for the architecture.

you got to be kidding me. 1.6ghz is as fast as a WII-U cpu.

i have a feeling that MS is jumping overboard to casual gaming.

Specs doesn't matter. Look at the current gen consoles, most of the time the xbox counterpart of the same game looks better. biggrin.gif

WOAH PEOPLE.

Don't jump to conclusion yet. This is just a speculation. But then again, if Microsoft wants to win the crowd, they gotta do a little bit better than Sony.

I'm no fanboy though.

Even the current gen's phat XBOX360 no longer got such issue, so why think that way?

To be a good consumer,let the others try it first. Say..2 years after production, then only we buy the next gen consoles.

Seem too risky to get it on the first year.

Does it matter what the specs are? What I need to know is whether it will have doa xtreme beach volleyball 3 as a system exclusive or not.

If a manufacturer did the same mistake for twice, then they deserve to send themselves to bankruptcy.

However, we should be more cautious to even more annoying, yet still unknown problem of the new system.

From the rumored specs, it is hard to fight with the PS4, 12 compute unit (Graphic core next) on next Xbox vs 18 Compute unit, it has 50 % less graphic performance compared to ps4, and 8GB ddr3 vs 8gb GDDR5, with rumored windows 8 integration ,it might not have enough bandwidth to push games at native 1080p.So i can expect game running at 900p instead of 1080p. sad.gif

spec on paper can only tell you shits how well the game will run

PS3's cell processor are supposed to be waaay superior than Xbox360, but in the end how it perform?

How well the games run are in the hand of the developers, as well as the toolkits provided by the console SDK, it's all on how can the dev harness the true power of the consoles

No need DOA Xtrerme Beach Volleyball 3.

It's next-gen.

So it means new Rumble Rose!
This time with TressFX hair simulation!
And even more robust Havok engine bouncy physics!

Right?

But to be honest, we all know the ultimate benchmark is how Cortana will look in Halo 5.

Off topic, but PS3 Cell processor is not that waaay superior to XBOX360 Xenon.

The Waternoose (Xenon processor) is actually a derivative of Cell broadband architecture. The chip is actually using 3 units of Cell's PPE but without SPE and guess what, Both of them are products from STI alliance....

By GFLOPS SPE is far superior than PPE but it cannot be used for general computation. So at most the Cell SPE is just used for physics calculation, security key and 3D only which on XBOX360 it was mostly handled by Xenos (XGPU/C1) on XBOX360. Well I always liked to mention that Xenos have a theoratical performance of 240GFLOPS while Cell have less than half of it icon_idea.gif

PS3's GPU is next to incapable of handling those data.

So far Maximum efficiency of Cell's SPE is around 98% which is a bit higher than XBOX360's GPU code efficiency but still the 3D quality still a bit lower than XBOX360 in terms of graphic quality but compensated by better physics & other code execution control of Cell SPE.



So net-net it's on par only and not does not have much difference in terms of execution on both console which you can see also in most multiplatform games.
