Xbox One is more powerful than Xbox 360

Microsoft’s fumbling Microsoft Games Studio head Phil Spencer has come unstuck once more, this time with comments regarding how powerful the Xbox One is compared to the Xbox 360. When asked on the Jimmy Fallon show, Phil mentions three times the power which went against what had previously been discovered.

After the show, Phil offered some clarification which suggested the Xbox One was eight times the power of Xbox 360…then went on to add that the real figure is “for purely local compute functions closer to 10x + Cloud”. So ten times more powerful than the Xbox 360. What this means in real terms is yet to be seen, but already after some comparisons have been made against current PC software, it looks like the Xbox One and PS4 will both be around the same level as medium spec gaming PCs.
