Here's a number for the Xbox:

One. As in, they named the third Xbox the Xbox One.

a man struggles through a thick undergrowth in a dense jungle, covered in dirt and sweat. his clothing is torn. he pants heavily as he manically hacks away vegetation with a dull machete. his eyes, wild with purpose, scan the night sky. a distant roar startles him. he suddenly sees what he has been searching for. there, in a small copse, a pygmy plays dead rising 3 on a xbox one. the man charges towards him and, with the last of his strength, throws him on the ground before the pygmy. he looks up, eyes bleary, and croaks:

"Your experience is demonstrably less rich than mine by virtue of the numbers my own personal toy can output in comparison to yours."

and then he dies, a smile on his lips

PS4's at least 30% more powerful if not more. 40% if you do a direct TFLOPs comparison. GDDR5 is 2.5x faster than DDR3 (I'm sure the eSRAM would help some of that but it's still far from parity). Also, they don't mention here that PS4 has 4x the compute queues (64 compared to the Bone's 16), so that may stretch performance even more down the road.

this is what college prereqs are. my last semester:

western civs 2 was "sum up the chapter in 150 words"
summing up 100 years of russia's most complicated era was fun because mentioning any specific events got you a 15/15

c++ was for/if loops for a semester

eng 112 was forum posting for a semester and someone in my class was a devout catholic woman who unironically used things like "you bet your sweet bippie" and ranted about the government whenever possible. she thought the civil war was 70 years ago and we needed a repeat of it. there was also someone who thought xena the warrior princess was a mythological deity. 250 word maximum on forum post, 750 words on essay

music appreciation was an enriching course with an interesting subject and enjoyable assignments.

i did most of western civs 2 in an afternoon, was 4+ weeks ahead on c++, and eng 112 was low effort as hell. i brought my laptop on the one day a week i had to be on campus and played king's bounty, or i played my 3ds on the hour and a half transit

next semester's going to be pretty much the same thing but with java/higher c++/php/psychology.

so picking up a skill to get me out of fixed income is annoying aside from coding for wordpress and that market is _full_

Gas.
