I'm all for the move to digital. I was this generation. I do think MS went about it the wrong way. If they had eliminated the 24hr check-in for those not wanting the added features they would have done a lot better. I want the family share plan and the ability to take my collection with me everywhere I go. I house sit for family almost two months out of the year so it would be great not to have to pack gaming things.They could sign a deal with Gamefly for easy rentals, everything in the c...
We a see a thousand copy cat articles on every subject. So many have had so little to say and nothing new to say. So much so that when I see some site names or one I don't recognize, I don't even bother hitting the link. The what "me too" societies do.
Trash in what way? From everything I've read it is a far more efficient OS than any other MS has released. The required specs are less than 7. They removed the start button and people lost their minds. Mostly because they heard someone else lost theirs over it. So explain how it's trash. And though One uses the Windows 8 kernel, how does that make the OS in One trash? What is wrong with that kernel? Or did you just hear it's bad?
The ability to run multiple OSs th...
That tiny Onlive box can do everything PS4 can do as far as cloud gaming. This is a new way of utilizing the cloud. While everyone knocks the ability to run several OSs, it may prove to be the ability that makes One games tower above other gaming platforms.
Spoken like a guy that has no clue how any OS works. Unless that is if you actually are a software developer that designs OSs.

How many accounts do you have to have to bump up your bubble count within the same thread? Based on the number of agrees you typically get I'm assuming it's around ten.
I thought this was an exclusive.
gtarhro7 you're really brainwashed aren't you. Ratings agencies and polls showed that people used their consoles as much for non-gaming features as they did for games. The PS3 was shown through both polls and ratings to be used more for non-gaming than gaming. So someone cared.
But you're so stuck in consoles are for games only mode because someone told you to think that way that you ignore that you use your laptop and PC for media. I'm going to go out on a li...
Nvidia is not in that great a position. They could have used that console money regardless of what they claim. Tegra 4 has been a complete failure. AMD is coming into their own and are on the forefront of CPU technology. And it will be the consoles that prove their superior design. Nvidia might have a chance with Tegra 5, but AMD might lock down the market with Jaguar APUs in tablets and phones. If that happens, the roles will reverse and it will be Nvidia wondering if they will survive. I wo...
IMO that was funny.
"Yeah, the cloud is PR bullshit. I work in IT."
I lay cables all day which means I'm qualified to determine if someone has invented anything new in IT. I don't invent anything but I know what they will be able to do in the future.
Why is it people that work with a certain kind of equipment think that qualifies them to determine what people that invent and engineer equipment can do. It seems that no matter how many times something new does s...
I love the way fei-hung mentions all the ways the PS3 was a better media player than the 360 and he gets all of those people that agree. But it's somehow MS that gets all of the heat for being a media machine.
Gotta love it when pure logic is used.
He's not what he used to be when he was on 20/20. But he is far better than anyone else on Fox.
BTW do any of you remember when that wrestler slapped him in the ears and screwed up his hearing. I was really young and couldn't believe it was happening. 20/20 was my favorite show as a child.
How is this suddenly a issue. I don't game on a PC anymore but when I did I remember many games were better optimized for one GPU or another. This is nothing new. Not a big deal. But I do hope that having consoles using APUs will show the true power of that design. It time for software to truly catch up with multi-core hardware.
Last week. Several games. But this looks like a lot of fun. I wouldn't mind having this.
Where did this conversation come from. It seems so out of place on this site.
MS will be fine this generation. I believe they will prosper. Gaming sites represent a small part of the people that buy consoles. MS started out bad with their PR, but they still have a chance to repair the damage done with the majority of the public. Having some of the nonsense spread like with Fallon's used games remark hurt, but that audience is fixable. The group that will persist with the...
Why whats annoying is people that know very little about one thing running their mouths about things that are multi-faceted. I know you have no clue what I'm talking about because...well you have no clue. But the next couple of years might wake you up. Actually, no they won't. Sony will though.
Enjoy.
I know most of them weren't because they have said so. And you are a sheep when you repeat others opinions like take away the rights of the gamer. No one was taking away your rights. You had the choice to not but it. You're not a true gamer. There is no such thing as a true gamer. There are sheep and people who make a choice. Just because I don't believe in what you believe in means I'm no longer a gamer. Who is taking away rights. Or you seem to think you can. I'll do the...
My history shows I think for myself. If you can find a place where I make the same arguments repeating the same phrases from others you can claim that. But I can tell you that for you to think that in the first place you lack comprehension skills. Pointing out the truth isn't being a fanboy. Not agreeing with the crowd also doesn't make me a fanboy.
@Biggest
Looking at the two comments I made on this thread make it really clear you lack comprehension ...
I believe it will last because of the growth of Xbox over the last couple of years. Xbox went from generating a couple of billion three or four years ago to generating over 5 billion in the last couple. And that will only grow. So I believe they will continue to push new games. But not be stupid and push things that don't sell.
