[Pulp 365.com] Hands On With The Alienware Alpha

An article about an experience with the Alienware Alpha on the E3 2014 show floor.

Is anyone else excited and or worried about this concept of PC gaming. I love consoles and PCs but to try and combine the two has the potential of really sucking. Price will be super high for a console. That will be hard to justify after spending tons of money for PS4 or XB1 this year. Then you have the same problem we had with XB 360 with shadowguns and other games that were cross platform with PC. People who played them on 360 got completely owned by PC gamers because of their smoother machines and advantages of Keyboard and mouse play. I will love being able to play some PC games I didn't get to or wouldn't get to but for starting at $550 almost, I think I would just save up some more money and get a real gaming PC and get the full experience. I don't know how well this will be received. I don't foresee any PC gamers buying one of these because it will be, in essence, taking everything they believe in and telling them to throw it out the window. Only way to bridge the gap between PC gamers and Console gamers is to make all Consoles as powerful as either this can be or as powerful as a gaming PC. Well that means the prices go up astronomically. Console gamers don't like that, first release PS3 and XB1 as examples. I find this one to be an enigma and will wait for time to make its decision on whether or not this one makes it out of the gates alive.

Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.

To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.

The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.

Once they re-evaluate exclusive all will be fine….

Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.

Jingsing14d ago

15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.

Tanktopmaster9214d ago

These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
