dx11 is irrelevant for consoles.
directx is a set of microsofts proprietary apis which it pushes into the market. its widely known that openGL is much more powerful than directx but developers dont use opengl as much as directx because microsoft spent billions upon billions of dollars pushing their proprietary apis to force third party companies to develop exclusive content for them.
directx has never been ahead of opengl from a technology standpoint. every t...
outlawing people from connecting to your own hardware...? it doesnt make sense and would be completely illogical, also quite impossible to enforce.
yes, companies like microsoft will try and force you into places like this, its because they havnt been able to transition from their paid model to an open source model. but companies like google are letting you do whatever you want, they are pioneering in open source and encouraging people to do things on their own. baby steps, y...
many "poor" people that theyre talking about used to have jobs, they used to be able to buy things
you can always take advantage of your own servers that you could set up in a closet in your house.
if you dont want to use googles servers, dont; set up a small server in your closet that networks all of your information together for you.
the subscription model may be what a few companies take advantage of, but i doubt that it will be as mainstream as you think. if one company wont do it, another company will, open source will always be available, and in many...
everything that they did right about mass effect seems to be leaving
i think the writer of this article doesnt understand what a boycott is
this is weekly sales, not monthly, theres no way they sold a quarter million 360s in one week, that would be one of the best weeks that 360 has ever had. and probably the best week outside of blackfriday sales. it would also mean that they jumped up almost 600% in sales from last week, and that just didnt happen.
patcher said that in the NPD results it was mentioned that x360 sales of 500k in june included promotional giveaways, which makes sense because microsoft hasnt been @50...
its crazy that microsoft can get such high numbers in NA, but sony is still selling more units worldwide
so so very wrong
i agree with thecolbertinator, its a fun game, i would describe it as delightfully fun :) lol
@ozstar im not sure where you got that conclusion from. if you can connect to psn you can connect to your cloud, cloud space is finite so they have to allow you to access and change your data there
also, cloud saving is supported, its not mandatory. sony had said that people will be able to save on the game card and on memory cards as well
microsoft doesnt pay to get dlc early, they pay to delay ps3 dlc.
if they stopped paying to delay ps3 dlc it wouldnt hurt x360 owners at all, they would get it at the same time that they usually would.
its just a dick move by microsoft, nothing more.
this is a nintendo problem, developers will use whatever tools are given to them. we need to yell at nintendo not individual publishers.
if we yell at publishers we'll maybe get one or two publishers to stop, if we focus all our yelling at nintendo we can get nintendo to stop allowing publishers to do this.
from what i understand sony is offering cloud saving for ps vita.
makes it a lot harder to regulate save game data. how can you you say "no, you cant delete something from the internet"
its already been said, but for good measure: gears of war isnt a microsoft ip, epic owns it and if they wanted they could bring it to ps3.
mass effect is an ea ip, microsoft helped publish the first one though.
microsoft paid for exclusivity, not for the ip.
not one microsoft owned ip, they need to start making some games
sony wouldnt be oopying kinect, sony was first into motion conrols. microsofts kinect is copying sony
while i can see the reasons that sony would add this into their next console, i hope they keep making the games that theyve made for years. i dont want to play kinect or motion games. they can be fun, ill give that up, but 90% of the time i just want to sit back, relax and play with the controller
great game
dx11 isnt the same as 4.0...
4.0 is what microsofts dx12 will be trying to catch up to ... :P haha
