Quantic Dream, the developer of the upcoming Beyond: Two Souls game for the PS3, believes the upcoming PlayStation 4 is similar to a PC from the next couple of years, noting that it's still going to experience limitations at some point in time.

The PlayStation 4 was revealed by Sony back in February and, since then, the company has shared the technical specifications of the home console and quite a few developers have compared it favorably to a PC.

Quantic Dream is the latest studio to do such a thing, with CEO Guillaume de Fondaumiere telling GameSpot that the PlayStation 4 is proving to be a powerful device, at least judging by the developer's own tests.

Even so, the executive notes that limitations will still be encountered but he goes on to say that the PlayStation is something "that really is more like the PC of next year or two years."

The studio is already working on a PlayStation 4 project, but it's currently focusing on completing Beyond: Two Souls for the PS3.
