Sony revealed the PlayStation 4 recently, initiating gamer debate about the console's graphical capabilities and "power".
Linus Blomberg, CTO and Co-founder Just Cause 2 developer Avalanche Studios has added a little fuel to the debate, saying Sony's new console will out-perform PC power "for years to come".
Speaking with Gaming Bolt, Blomberg says the console market desperately needs a boost to counter the PCs ever-evolving hardware capabilities. The PS4 can initiate that boost, he says.
“The consoles desperately need a boost since having been overtaken in terms of performance by PC’s several years ago, and also losing market share to mobile platforms," he said.
The console presents interesting opportunities for a developer like Avalanche Studios, a company that focuses exclusively on open-world games.
“It’s a perfect fit for the types of games we do, and we are confident that we’ll bring open-world gaming to a whole new level because of it."
Shockingly, and sure to feel the ire of PC gamers the world over, Blomberg says the PS4 is powerful enough to smoke PC.
"I’m glad Sony decided to go with 8gb RAM because it means that the PS4 will out-power most PC’s for years to come."
PC gamers: chill out! PS4 gamers: is nice! Do you think PS4 can sustain "years" worth of being more powerful than PC?
