Not surprised, Azure is one of the leading cloud techs in the market right now.

Graphics - same graphics as crackdown 1

russo1212683d ago

OMG another failure growing in MS clouds. Well, this is a joke, right? LOL!!!

WhyHate2683d ago

Nice to see the continued effort to improve multiplayer gaming, ( via cloud compute ) it's going to be bad to see the PlayStation trolls flood this this article and thread that has nothing to do with the PS. Sony troll party incoming in, 5 4 3 2...

Microsoft literally just trolled their consumers with the cloud.
The trophy game for it just released.
Yet, you worry about what gamers, I mean so y fans have to say about it.
Did you know that the Xbox one x version actually gets downgraded to the base console version if playing on the cloud together? To this day, they say 12x the power yet their strongest console suffers due to this.
So until Microsoft’s stops lying about what they are doing and fans like you defending them, others will have something to say per the facts.
Free speech and all.

You do know the cloud company was bought by epic far along into development CD3? They had to restart hence the reason for re-creating the wrecking zone.

The success of fortnite literally wrecked their zone :)

Rude-ro2683d ago

@BeOpen
And? Lying to entice sales with this cloud talk has nothing to do with that nor did they EVER say anyone or anything else was in control of Microsoft’s “cloud” gaming.
That’s the continuing issue with Microsoft. They buy or try to monopolize things to boost their nerds and to this point, EVERYONE has jumped ship, been closed, or said bought technology never lives up to Microsoft’s marketing.
See Kinect, they bought the company, lied about its capabilities, and sold millions before anyone realized.
Trying to defend it is ... sad honestly. Giving them money while they just rip you off with lies and false promises for over 8 years now? Shame

"PS Kids... enjoy your single player experiences, truth be told that's all Sony is capable of producing. "

I play on xbox the most due to online multiplayer and my community of friends there. But with that said 5 of my top 6 games this gen are all Sony single player games (Uncharted 4, GOW, HZD, Spiderman and Until Dawn). Sony need to keep doing what they are doing and MS need to improve a huge amount going forward. If Azure helps them do this fantastic, but after seeing crackdown 3 i highly doubt it will impact anything for a long time yet.

The logo looks like a wankel rotary engine

InTheZoneAC2683d ago

Looks exactly like a rotary engine, so that means this cloud based tech is not so efficient...

Hyperstrada2683d ago

Just traded my Z car for a RX-7. Yes the logo looks like a rotary engine.

bloop2683d ago (Edited 2683d ago )

I had my RX-8 for 4 years with 90 thousand miles on the clock when I traded it in and in all that time it was never in a garage for anything other than a service.

Edit: Oops, I misread your comment!! Yes, that's the only problem with rotaries, feeding the bloody things.

bloop2683d ago

RX Aether 😂

Man I miss my RX-8. Such a fun car to drive.

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

dveio57d ago

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.

Jingsing56d ago

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.

Tanktopmaster9256d ago

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

S2Killinit56d ago

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

Jingsing56d 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.

Tanktopmaster9256d 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
