Can you even quantify relative power with a percentage?

Unless forbes contributor is CBOAT i call bullshit.
And we can't tell what final hardware specs are before retail console are in the gamers or tech press hands. So yeah either X1 has become stronger or ps4 has gotten a downclock.
History will tell us down clocks for both are more the norm then the rare occasion.

So PS4 is SSJ2 Goku while the Xbone is Yamcha?

Xbone offers absolutely ZERO value for the customer to choose them over the PS4. There's never been a generation with this big of a gap in terms of power/advantages.
Yamcha isn't that strong.
If the PS4 is SSJ3 Goku, then the Xbox is SSJ2 Gohan.
The Wii U is Yamcha.
Jaozi.
FF Versus = FFXV now.

40% the performance for $100 less.
So nuts
So nuts
We are ending one now. The Wii was clearly outclassed in hardware performance but still managed to dominate in sales.

wii was cheaper
Xbox over PS2 was more than 40% i'm pretty sure, PS1 over the Sega Saturn must of been close, likewise with the PS2 over the Dreamcast etc.
There only seems to be a problem this time because Microsoft have the 'weaker' console, i'm sure it wouldn't be mentioned anywhere close as much if the PS4 was the weaker console, just my opinion.

PS4 - SSJ2 Goku (perfect ssj2 but with slightly sloppy fighting techniques for now)
XB1 - USSJ Vegeta at 80%-100% power (slower than Goku, fluctuating power range with varying fighting techniques because of software)
WiiU - Krillin at relative power level compared to those (can chop you I'm half once in a blue with the right game)

The Wii really seems to set itself apart from the Xbox and PS3 though, with a different focus on their target market.
Xbox released 20 months later than PS2 and it was super large.

The PS2 also had 1000+ games more The Xbox so that more than balances out the power disadvantage. This gen if you want games, variety, indie games, power, price and minus all the restrictions you go for the PS4.

I am wondering how long it'll be before the casual gamer notices the difference. It'll be a while before developers can efficiently utilize the power of these systems.
It's not "infinite" anymore. They changed their wording

Saturn was more powerful than the pax.

That could have something to do with the fact that the Xbones were PCs with MUCH faster Nvidia graphics cards.
Sorry I don't buy it. They said the same thing when the PS3 came out, touting numbers like 50% more powerful! I didn't see any difference at all in third party games this generation, and that was coming from a console that came out a year after the 360. The playstation exclusives looked really nice, but I feel like Halo 4 was the best looking console game of last year for sure. People forget that Microsoft has invested so much in their cloud gaming service, which enables a lot of things such as A.I. to be brought in using 0 of the systems assets. The Xbox One exclusives look amazing, Ryse is the best looking game I have seen so far out of all the new console reveals. Time will certainly tell, but I am tired of hearing how much better the PS4 is, I can't wait till these things come out so we can just stop the speculation. Every website that mentions anything negative about the Xbox One or something positive about the PS4 gets a billion hits, so I guess we can expect plenty of objective based articles over the course of the next few months.
