    2. Both the CPU and GPU for the XBox One (and PS4) are made by AMD and not nVidia
    3. Optimising for a PC and optimising for a console are two different things. The games shown in the demos would have been optimised to run on Windows 7 PCs and not the Widows 8 Based Xbox One Dev Kits. Given that the Hardware in the PCs was a lot more powerful then we may well end up with games toned down from their E3 showings.
    4. It's free publicity for Sony and is NOT helping thier case in selling that piece of polished, anti-consumer bullshit.
    5. XBox One games being optimised for Windows 8 may well mean that yo uare forced to use Windows 8 for the PC Ports which is a big issue if you take your "Consoles are just shitty PCs" comment into perspective.
    I think you've latched a little too tightly onto optimization. Performance is something that's watched over the project's lifetime, but dialed in towards the end. This involves compatibility testing, which is to ensure performance parity across a wide range of software, firmware, and hardware configurations. A demo build can be/is typically branched off from the main line and altered in fundamental ways just to appear "optimized", but those changes may or may not make it into the main line. Additionally, Microsoft and Sony both have alternate versions of their development kits that have an increase in memory, among other things, for games that aren't currently running within the retail limit. The PS4 development kits may have very well been running with extra memory and you'd never know unless you dug around in the settings.

              Not the first time I've seen this but it gets me so hyped for Season 11.

                                To be fair I still can't take any scene with Touma and Styl punching out, and nuking nuns with fireballs respectively seriously because it's just so fucking funny.

                                That said Accelerator is still an arsehole .
