The FCC is our best friend at the site, helping reveal Sony products well ahead of their intended announcement time, like the Sony Reader PRS-T3 and the Sony Xperia Z partnership with T-Mobile. While the PS4 has already been announced and most of the specs have been revealed, the PS4 dev kit has finally swung by the FCC and revealed some interesting tidbits about the powerful next generation console. Unlike the consumer unit, which will offer two USB ports on the front for charging of the Dualshock 4 and connection of other accessories, the dev kit offers would-be and current game designers an additional USB port which may have always been the intention of Sony to offer and could have been cut to help bring the console’s price down. The most interesting news from the FCC breakdown might be the PS4 (DUH-D1000AA) max clock speed.

It’s pretty obvious by now that the Xbox One reveal was anything but good for Microsoft. I’ll leave my critique of the event, both positive and negative, for another article but as it stands right now, pre E3, gamers and press are simply not impressed. After the lack of clear focus on gaming, more damming news came out about the potential, or lack thereof, for the Xbox One. Thanks to developer knowledge and architecture breakdown of the new Xbox, it’s now widely believed that the PS4 will be 50% more powerful than the Xbox One. So how have we come to this 50% in performance difference between the two machines? After the jump, we discuss the math.
