Last-gen ports: Opinions?

Einhander:
PS4 is all about it's potential and capability. But 2 years in, it hasn't lived up to expectations. People keep getting it because of it's potential. But there's nothing really special about the games. I will admit that I like the console's appearance. It's stylish and I like it's angular design on the front. I like the controllers too. Very sleek. But the games? Only exclusives I care for so far are Infamous 2nd Son and Knack. Maybe Uncharted 4 or Last of Us 2 (if it comes out) and that's about it.

I think I read/saw the same thing you did :P

That strikes me as pretty interesting that the Xbox One uses x86 architecture, considering that many of the games it runs require x64 on PC :P

x64 is just another name for x86-64, I'm pretty sure.
sheep2001:
Yes.  Xbone and ps4 are both x64-86.  X64 is backwards compatible to x86.

X64 is for 64 bit processors.  X86 was for 16/32 bit processors.
Umbra:
Yeah I know about all that. I personally don't know anything about the new consoles so the way Thom worded it made it sound like it was using an x86-exclusive processor.
