Yesterday, Sony revealed details about their next generation gaming console Playstation 4 at a press event. They detailed the system specs, new controller specs and the new Playstation 4 Eye specs. I just made a quick comparison of leaked Xbox 720/vNext specs with Sony Playstation 4.

As you can see above, both the consoles will have almost identical specs in terms of power. You can see quick comparison of PS4 Eye and leaked Kinect 2.0 specs here.
