Last week, Xbox Achievements posted an interview with Oddworld creator Lorne Lanning in which the developer seemed to claim that the performance gap between the Xbox One and PlayStation 4 would narrow and eventually vanish. Now, new reports cast doubt on that claim — according to Just Add Water CEO Stewart Gilray, Lanning was misunderstood. That performance gap between the two platforms that has characterized many titles to date? It’s not going anywhere.
According to Gilray, “the PS4 has MORE COMPUTE units, and faster memory and a whole bunch of things, that would make that [Xbox One / PS4 parity] physically impossible to happen.” At this point, four months after launch, an increasing amount of data suggests that Gilray is right — and that may be why the PS4 continues to outsell the Xbox One at a rapid clip.
