I think they've both said it can output pics (maybe some video?) at 4K but I doubt any actual gaming. We're still talking them only being able to do 720p and 1080p, or about 9 to 4 times less resolution respectively. And they have only just recently locked down the new hdmi standard to even give enough throughput to push 4k past 24 frames a second.
But you could argue that they'd both be "upscaled to 4k" if you had a 4k TV.
Consoles are a long way off from 4k gaming (avoiding the obvious master race here).
I'm less bullish on Kinect myself with the first version having an install base of 30 million and just Dance Central being the only thing remotely appealing (and I'm not a huge gaming dance fan at all
). Sony has their own camera but I don't think it is as compelling as the Kinect 2 that Microsoft has shown. It'll be neat to see what they do with it and if it catches on as time goes on. Enough people will certainly be paying an extra $100 for it shortly.
