Microsoft has exponentially increased its player base over the last two iterations. They came in with next to no console experience. The first box sold 22 million, the 360 sold close to 80 million. The One has sold 4 million in 3 1/2 months with the huge disadvantage they had coming in with the negative PR from the media. They have turned a profit in the division the last 6 years straight, why would they sell it off? Would make absolutely no sense.
Already talked to Sundance they are working hand in hand with Respawn currently, should here something soon.
Hey game read this article about the challenges that Rubin faced when developing Ghosts. He days because the APU is NOT multi-threading they had to put it on one core. This functionality is being added with DX12, now stop.

Game please stop providing false information, multi-threading with an equal workload was introduced with Dx12, so with D3D12 they will not before.
PS4 uses PSSL a custom API off the OpenGL platform. These changes do not effect the PS4 API.
Game you clearly don't understand the benefits of Multi-threading on an 8 core processor. Shared workloads by evenly distributing the workload will free up strain on the APU and will allow for more flexibility with things like path-tracking, lighting-maps, post process effects, and scalable AI. I am getting tired of repeating this, it will also allow for better memory management of the DDR3 which will allow increased throughput with less idle. Finally, it will benefit the APU by signifi...
I expect them to announce the following:
Games for Gold announcement
B & K Grunty Land
H2A - H5 beta included
QB Gameplay
SO Gameplay
Phantom Dust 2
Forza Horizon 2
Crackdown 3
Project Nagano
A few unannounced IPs
One big surprise announcement
Gears reboot trailer
You say this when Sony announced games like Versus 13, Last Guardian, Agent, and several other 5 years ago and we still haven't seen anything other than FF15 going multiplat. Sony are the kings of pushing games back.
The cynicism in here is hilarious. If you don't understand what benefits this brings to all platforms than don't post. It is embarrassing how people will deny anything even with the facts in front of them. Multi-threading alone will boost performance since XB1 uses an 8 core processor, which means with less strain on the APU they can allows devs to focus on things like path-tracking, lighting-maps, post process effects, and scalable AI. This is only one of the benefits, but you will...
Specifically states will not see release. Go ahead and close this topic.

Multi-threading allowing all cores equal responsibilities. Especially noticed on 6 or 8 core APUs, do you not read or just do not understand this?
Eonjay is correct, the ESRAM is there to improve the throughput to the CPU which reduces idle. If you can get them closer to same level with less idle it will indeed increase the performance across the board. By their numbers it looked like between 20-30% boost for lower level APUs.
86 on MC and a 9 on the bigger publications.
Metacritic was at a 79 last time I looked without Rev3, how about you fanboys stop the witch hunt and realize that he had real concerns with the game. There has been quite a few 7s and 6s for this game which is right where Sessler scored it. Also, MS doesn't have the media in its pocket, grow up and learn to play the games you love instead of caring about the media so much.
Edit, double post.
Been following this game since I saw it popular on greenlight, it will be glorious. Pretty much justifies purchase of the Rift for me.
MS should not be up there, they had Mattrick's resign, hired a much better ceo and turned the whole re veal around before release on their new console. Have also been creating several new studios and giving people that got laid off jobs as well as providing great updates for requested features. Obviously, an awful company /s
Banjo & Kazooie Grunty Land coming to XB1 in 2016. This would be my guess.
I doubt this had anything to do with PR, LP have always been avid gamers.
