I don't follow (optical out is now supported). I have been using optical out with the XBOX ONE since the day it launched. It defaults to DTS audio. Although I noticed I have no variable settings for sound on my processor. Which is fine by me. DTS gives me a little extra on the low end (makes my sub thump harder) over DD. At least it does on my processor.
So I'm assuming this means the X1 will now give us the option of what audio setting (DD, DTS, DPL, etc) we can sel...
Capcom should've made this available for new generation hardware. They make it available for the PC. I have no interest in going backwards unless it's for something new or a true sequel to a game I enjoyed. This is just an extension of the same game and not much of an extension at that.
Forza Horizon is one of my all time favorite racing games. I just wish it was a bigger area that included ice and snow events. Hopefully the next one will be. I can't wait see the direction they are going to take that series. So many possibilities.
Chris what you wrote literally makes no sense at all.
Drive Club was never and will never be touted as the game to reinvent the wheel / revolutionize the genre. Nor is it being hyped through the roof by all of the media and it's fan base. Drive Club isn't being made for the PS3. It's strictly a PS4 exclusive game. So comparing the two games is one of the most ridiculous comparisons I think I've seen anyone make on this site in really long time and that in itse...
Delaying the 360 version is genius? So now it's genius to screw over your core base to try and get them to switch to the next gen. Gotta love it. What would be genius is if MS actually gave a damn about ALL of their user base and didn't pull stunts like this.
Edited: What I initially wrote was too long and boring. I will just leave it at this:
Resolution matters.
As kingdip90 pointed out below (#1.2). If resolution doesn't matter why are you getting an XBOX ONE when the mass majority of the games are on the XBOX 360 as well?
Not furious. More like slightly discouraged or disgruntled but this is par the course for MS and those that purchased an X1 (most likely) were 360 consumers and know what they're about. It would've been nice to get TF for free but oh well that's the breaks.
But a couple things to clear the air.
Those of you that are saying it's only Sony fans trolling that have a problem with this really need to stifle it and grow the F up. That is such a tir...
I've ordered direct through MS a few times the past several years. MS was the only place to pick up a Killer Instinct Mad Catz stick for the past couple weeks. They're sold out now. I don't get the who would go to MS site to get MS products other than trying to downplay this article.
I believe this about as much as, "I did not have sex with that woman."
Come on MS. Just stop already.
I can't recall a console ever dropping the price this fast. Ever.
Agreed.
If anything these so called journalist should be thanking us and not ridiculing us. It's the early adopters that set the pace for how well the console will do in the industry. It's because of us that this industry stays afloat and developers take chances releasing games at or around launch. Those of us that pay top dollar and buy games at full MSRP.
People that wait and jump on later usually more so do it because of cost and not hardware revisions. I d...

I have officially seen it all. Titanfall could dethrone COD? Explain how TF even has a chance to dethrone a game that is on nearly every format vs one that is only on MS hardware and OS?
On topic:
Sony is out pacing MS nearly 2 to 1 world wide and the gap is increasing and not shrinking. Considering that why would this author ask if Sony should worry about one game?
Did he even pay attention to Sony since they entered the gaming industry? ...
What an excellent run and an insane lap time.
My most anticipated game of 2014.
Can't wait!
I played the beta several hours on the X1 and the frame rates definitely fluctuate. Especially when you are in a Titan battling other Titans. Either you are not susceptible to notice drops in frames rates or you're gilding the lily.
You say Drive Club must hit the bench mark of 1080p 60FPS because Forza 5 has yet you go on to admit Drive Club is significantly more taxing and technically advanced? SMH
Forza 5 is barely a graphical bump from Forza 4. The only difference is more clutter backdrops and better car models. Other than that it's hard to tell Forza 5 apart from Forza 4 with the only exception being Forza 5 has half the tracks and 2/3rds less vehicles than Forza 4.
Drive Club i...
Thief has an overall rating in the 60's. It looks mediocre and has performance issues on all formats.
There are already much better looking and higher rated games running in 1080p and 60fps on the PS4. Are some going to pretend this isn't just an exception and not the norm?
Thief is running on a tired old engine. It's not the fault of the PS4 that this game has serious design flaws. Blame the developer and not the hardware because we ALL know the ...
I agree in that finally is a little off when we are talking 3 days for them to be sold out. Especially when we take into consideration we don't know the amount of units Sony made available to the Japanese consumer.
We could possibly be talking a million units there and that would be staggering. Even if it was a 1/4 of a million units that's fantastic. So the overall sales totals could be in the ballpark of a 100k per day to upwards of over +300k per day.
I agree 100% on both. I'm very selective on what I will even rent and I only go for platinum if it's a game I really enjoy. I wont go for it if its a chore or a bore.
COD isn't going anywhere. Not that I'm a huge fan of COD but merely stating facts. Treyarch will bring the first next gen COD this Fall. Respawn did a great job with TitanFall BUT the bots, 6v6 along with online only wont unseat COD as top dog. Plus let us not forget the most important aspect, sales. How can anyone expect TF to unseat COD when it's not being released for the most sold next gen platform, the PS4.
COD gets nearly half it's sales from being on e...
