MS has not even confirmed the existence of Anaconda. Insiders have leaked that information to us about what MS AIMS it to be.
This is my stance as well.
$600 minimum if Sony and Microsoft plan on going through with these kind of specs, I honestly don't see anything less than that if these consoles come out next year
I won't knock Sony's R&D and engineers as they are no light weights but MS has made the better console (in terms of engineering) for a while now. I honestly believe that neither of them can do much more than the other in terms of price. If MS is making the more powerful console it will be more expensive or sold at a loss.
I don't think there's ever just 1 factor for that stuff, certainly not between different platforms and I'm not going to use hardware revisions to prove, because that's kind of a different situation. I do think price to performance is far more important than just performance. You can blow the competition away with power, but if it at a massive cost, you'll probably get comfortably outsold in the end, as we've seen pretty much every gen.
Which console are you talking about?! One x came a year after with $100 more price than PS4pro. if you wanna compare both companies in terms of R&D enginieering ability you've to compare them in the fair/same situation which is PS4 and XB1 situation for sure. They both came in the same time frame and PS4 was significantly more powerfull, smaller without PB and One hundred dollars cheaper! This is what i'm talking about!
True but there is a clear reason for that. They bundled it with the ill fated kinect if IIRC. I'm talking about 2 consoles with the same direction. Without the kinect the xbox one would have been cheaper than the ps4 for sure considering the power difference.
It wouldn't have been. The XBO was poorly engineered and had a larger APU chip than the ps4 despite being less powerful. Without the Kinect, it would have likely been the same price as PS4. Less expensive RAM but more expensive APU
Open up a one x, then open up a pro. They are in a different place now.
I serously doubt that. Not that is was poorly engineered (I don't know enough about that to really comment) but kinect by it self was an expensive peice of tech at the time.
Without the kinect the xbox one have been in the same price as PS4 for around 5-6 years mate.
Open up a PS4, then open up a X1, Open up a PS3, then open up a X360, Open up a PS2, then open up a XBOX, They always have been in a different places :)!
I think the point he's trying to make is that MS has gone a long way since the original Xbox arguing that they've surpassed sony in terms of engineering.
I'm talking about the S onward. define "clearly a rush job" I wouln't excuse the Pro shortcomings on a time crunch...the whole industry has that problem.
Yup, if there's a generation where BC matters is this one with digital becoming so relevant, unlike previous ones, so Sony has the potential to benefit the most dive has the bigger userbase
Because upgrading a PC for the Gen after this one will be cheaper and with how things are going plus most games that came out this Gen from MS have been on PC as well as well as I prefer mouse and keyboard.
