    Maybe it can maintain 20fps in fallout 4.

    Looks like devs had access to 6 cores and now have access to a 7th (of 8). So less than 1/6th of an upgrade over before though how many devs will program for 8 cores.Probably using the last core for the system, so probably no further upgrades have to wait and see.

    I think the PS4 and XB1 will be short lived and we will see new systems by 2017.

    I would love that but I just can't see it happening. Everyone who bought a new console would be whining and complaining they didn't get the (excessive and overlived) lifespan of the last generation.
