There is also the Embedded memory of the X One, while the PS4 doesn't have any embedded memory.

I will say the Xbox One reveal was pathetic lol but I still think its gonna be a damn good console.
They now need to concentrate on clearing up the online only shit, second hand/pre owned/rental shit, and show us some next gen games...seriously lol

We'll only really be able to compare the 2 consoles head to head when we actually see a next gen title being played on both machines.

On a side note, the fact that the consoles both use multicore cpu's, means us pc gamers will finally get titles that are designed to run on more than 2 cores. Meaning cpu's will finally start having more of an impact on gaming. Right now you can still play pretty much every title apart from a select few (Crysis 3, SC2, Anno and a couple of others) perfectly fine on a dual core cpu.

Multithreading is a must and the way forward!!
Nice post. The 8gb GDDR5 memory is a huge wildcard. I can't help but think it was a good move though - ddr5 is standard in graphics cards these days.
