Coolrom Hacked

Major Nelson Discusses Albert Penello’s “30%” Comment
Albert Penello recently posted to Neogaf explaining a number of things about the Xbox One. One of the biggest comments to come out of the post was that there was no way Microsoft were going to give up a 30% hardware advantage to Sony, as some figures (and some rather over-excited consumers) might suggest.
