Xbox co-creator: Xbox One can beat PS4

article published on 2 April, 2014

Ed Fries, an Xbox co-creator, has said that Microsoft's Xbox One console can emerge victorious over Sony's PlayStation 4 (PS4) if Microsoft makes the right moves. What would be the right moves? By focusing on good execution of software and services, while newer technologies like VR gaming might be worth avoiding for now. In a Q&A (or AMA) on Yabbly, Fries gave his input on what Microsoft ... [ read the full article ]

silee1, like i said before i don't have a game console & never have nor do i want 1. i don't even play games on my computers as i use them as tools to work on customers' computers & research for my model warships. haven't even played solitaire in years which is how i learned to use windows back in ver 2 or 3 in the early 90's.

I'm hoping the PS4 does better than the XBone, simply because I dislike M$, and more specifically how they handled the system's launch, so I'm pretty biased. That said, I think the fact that - so far at least - the PS4 better handles 1080p much better out of the gate (although that gap is shrinking rapidly, apparently) has been a serious blow to the XBone's fortunes.

What I read online is that they're almost exactly comparable in raw power, but the XBone is significantly more difficult to program for than the PS4, due to its "multimedia hub" design, rather than the PS4's directly game-centric design. Amusingly enough, this is pretty much a direct reversal of the last generation of consoles; the "Cell" CPU in the PS3 was apparently a real bear to properly use, but a real beast when you did so.
What you failed to read online is that theyre almost alike but quite different in key areas. The PS4 is more of a gaming machine while the Xbone is more multimedia. Another key difference is that the PS4 can play some games at 1080p on a high framce rate while the Xbone cant. So, the consoles are similiar but not the same.

What YOU didn't read, apparently, is the section at the end of what you quoted, where I said:

Well? What are you saying, that I didn't already..? I simply don't see it. In fact, what's being said online is that while there was an initial difference, that's rapidly disappearing as developers learn to code for the XBone. Again, this is a reversal of the XBox 360/PS3 paradigm.

You probably should be a little more subtle, by the way, when making a new account; you're not fooling anyone. Nor is indirectly calling a mod a liar a particularly good idea on any forum. Don't get in pissing matches with mods, especially ones as active as ddp. It's not like he's a tyrant, no matter what you think at the moment.

You should be careful when posting like you know what youre talking about, youre not fooling anyone. Nor is defending your Afterdawn buddies a good idea on this forum. We see right through you. Dont start defending your buddies like that, especially when they got the power to ban YOU. It's not like he has more power than other mods. But consider that other mods are reading whats going on and they got more power than ddp to ban both of you. Tihnk about it.

I notice that you quite blatantly have no response to my post, beyond more silliness. Perhaps I use too many polysyllabic words for you? I'd apologize, but I actually don't give a damn if you are afflicted with brain cramps by having to actually read.

In response to your further rantings, I'm not worried at all, silly git. I certainly have been warned by mods here at times, and rightfully so when it happened, but guess what? I do this thing called "listening", and I modify the actions that caused the warning, if it happens. You really ought to try it; it's why I'm a "Senior Member", and you're still a "Newbie". That certainly does not mean I'm better than you, but it does demonstrate I haven't ever been banned from AD.

You're also not going to be able to use nonexistent censure by mods you are quite obviously NOT on good terms with to scare me, bucko, especially since you've already been banned once in this thread alone.

Nor is ddp particularly my buddy (or enemy). Like most people here, I only interact with him (even that's an assumption, I simply don't know ddp's gender, nor care) around the context of mod actions and the rather rare actual opinion he'll post under an article, as he did here. Unfortunately for your paranoia, people don't have to be allies to disapprove (or make fun of) improper and/or inappropriate public behavior. Deal with it. It's one of the consequences of speaking in/to the public, and you won't be able to avoid it, any more than anyone else can. One of the duties of any adult is being responsible for one's public statements.

Furthermore, I haven't posted anything that's incorrect, and I've been pretty clear about what is opinion and fact in my posts. Additionally, I can back up every claim I've made. You simply have not, and will not, be able to do the same.

Sorry, enraged-12-year-old-fanboi, but no one is impressed, least of all me. Learn2debate with adults, or continue to repeat the generation of new accounts, both here and on many other forums. This isn't 4chan, and your behavior so far simply does not fly. While I do find poking you and watching you foam like a can of shaving cream with a bad valve to be quite entertaining, it really would be in your best interests to step off, to be blunt.

I see that you get very upset and sensitive to my every post which tells is making look and feel ridiculously embarrassed. My multiple lexiconic words are too much for your intellectual capacity to bear, making you obsequious to my every whim. I didn't mean to make you experience intellectual diarrhea with your difficulty to deal with someone who uses a vocabulary greater than your 2nd grade level grammar will permit.

Despite your sexual frustrations, we're all laughing at your idiocy. We're not worried about your inablility to understand the world of gaming and PCs. You've been warned by mods here and you still arent smart enough to take the hint. You should start an activity called 'sex' for once. Maybe this will open up your lonely state of misery and angst against the world. You should try it. I'm sure your parents and the few friends that you can count on your hand have urged you to try it despite your fear of going outside. That tells us that you're many levels beneath me, considering you've been both warned and banned on Afterdawn.

You're not smart enough to manipulate the mods here who are way smarter than you to satisfy your needy requests since they know the type of sexless mental patient you are. When you mention being scared, this is an obvious indication that you indeed are scared... boo!!!

We all know ddp is your buddy. You interact with him since youre always on Afterdawn harassing others and using him as your shield since you lack the balls to do defend yourself. Unfortunately, people here have to bear the brunt of your sexual frustrations of being afraid of going outside and unable to attract a female (or in your case, a male) to satisfy your needs. Accept it. It's one of the tragedies of being born a weakling with a very small private part. One of the responsibilities of being a real man is to act like one.

Moreover, you've posted inaccuracies that have defied utter logic and common sense. Regrettably, you've failed to prove all your points which I shot down with proof. I, on the other hand, have proved my case with evidence, common sense and example.

Don't feel bad, 50 year-old sexually frustrated man, but no one here likes you. Not even females, obviously. Learn from your grammar mistakes and be a real man. Otherwise, you'll find yourself making boring repeat posts under different accounts which we've seen you do on many forums including this one. This isn't Facebook. You're too old to be here. Its nonetheless fun making you sweat and rant like the old man that you are, trying too hard to try to topple me while I got you by the neck yelling for your mommy.. HA HA HA HA.. Even though you're mad that viagra isn't working for you anymore, you should take a break from having me enbarrass you further. While you read this, I know your blood pressure rises while your d*** can't.

HA HA HA HA HA !!!!!!!

It makes one wonder why you continued to feed the troll, Bozohub. Just seemed like a waste of time, and energy.

I'm pretty sure that I made it clear that I found it amusing; so did my wife, in fact. I like little more than inveigling a troll into completely revealing him/herself in all their *cough* "glory".

That said, I'm NOT going to apologize for making (non-profane) responses to any given posts that are directed at me. Whether or not it was a waste of my time is for me to judge, no one else =) . Furthermore, it's not like I didn't repeatedly warn the sot about what was going to happen, now is it?

Anyone who thinks they're going to make hay by trolling AD is simply a fool, nothing more; as I said, this is not 4chan. If he makes another account and continues to rage, the next step will simply be deleting his posts, I'd guess.

Wow all this over two systems that are trying to be better than a computer in speed and specs.
And better as multimedia/ social center for the home. not to ruffle any feathers but its not how good the system is but how playable the stuff is on the system, the harder it is to play stuff the less likely people are to buy it because a new form of word of mouth can make or break a system . Why do you think ms has all them young and hip stars hocking theirs system on tv " ooh the Keenan and peel play xb1 so it must be good" lol

ddp im shocked honestly.
The not owning a game console is fair enough if you don't play games but i thought the curiosity of game consoles would of had you trying to mod/hack/patch them or fix them or even try to write programs for them or modify software to run on them.

Here in australia some computer business also do modding and repairs on game consoles.

I havn't actually played the new xbox or the ps4 1 day i might get 1 if i like them,for now there are limited number of games & bugs that will be detected and hopefully fixed in the future,also the price will drop on both consoles.

custom built gaming pc from early 2010,ps2 with 15 games all original,ps3 500gbs with 5 games all original,yamaha amp and 5.1channel surround sound speakers,46inch sony lcd smart tv.

xboxdvl2, i've attempted to fix a ps3 slim once for a customer's daughter whose dog peed on the console. corroded the keyboard & keyboard data cable & couldn't find replacements off ebay as this was different from normal ps3 slim.
