Considering they don't think that making good games will help them sell consoles, I wouldn't hold your breath.
Another salty Xbox fanboy... good games don't sell consoles anyway, right? lol
Now they are doing it again, by admitting they will never be anything but last place, that making good games isn't going to help that, and by relying on Gamepass to keep their brand afloat as it cannibalizes their market.
So THIS is why Dreams didn't make it, it had no flamethrowing dicks.
*crickets*
Thought so... The ignorant can disagree all they want, but until they can prove me wrong, that's all they can do. Go take a course in game design, build a game or two of your own, then get back to me.
Moongrim, then enlighten us all to what is wrong with my statement, instead of just tossing out insults and then running off... which only shows you actually don't know what you are talking about. I develop games, do you?
Rendering resolution doesn't magically upscale the textures as well. Those are separate image files that are at a set resolution. Unless you do some AI upscaling (which is limited in what it can do, it can make it look better, but you're not g...

Case in point, this Mario Kart 64 emulation at 4K... doesn't look much better than the n64 game aside from the sharper polygon edges. The textures are still just as blurry as N64.

8K only means that the polygons themselves are rendered at that resolution, the textures will still be the same quality as on switch... you can render Mario 64 at 8K, but it'll still be a blurry mess texture-wise.
Let's do a direct comparison between the top headsets:
Vive Pro 2: $1300
2448 × 2448 pixels per eye (4896 x 2448 pixels combined) LCD screen (slightly higher resolution, but no OLED like PSVR2, so no perfect black, no HDR)
90/120 Hz (only 90Hz supported via VIVE Wireless Adapter)
Up to 120 degrees (horizontal) FOV
G-sensor, gyroscope, proximity, IPD sensor, SteamVR Tracking V2.0 (compatible...
it's cheaper than any other headset that has its feature set... not to mention the exclusive features it has. No other headset has the eye tracking, foveated rendering, or HDR... and the only other cheaper headset that comes close feature-wise lacks 120hz refresh, has a lower resolution screen, no HDR, or none of the other above-mentioned exclusive features PSVR2 has... and it's only $150 cheaper.
It would still take developers actually coding their games to take advantage of the haptics, the eye tracking, the foveated rendering, the HDR screen, etc... which is unlikely unless there's a financial incentive for them to do so (like a PSVR2 exclusive version)... so I wouldn't count on it in the short-term.
You do get better 3D audio through the headset headphones, so there's that until you can figure it out.
It's sad how desperate the MS fanboys are getting to score a point after Phil admitted they lost the console war and have no desire to even try to make good games anymore.
I'll take the word of those who made it over an internet commenter anyday.
while it is responsible for things like levels having to be kept a certain size/complexity in order for everything to fit into S' memory, things like FPS can easily scale.
nobody aims down sights in non-VR FPS games either, they use a reticle.
All that trouble to make a nice wheel/pedal/seat setup for max realism, and they give them a boring 2D display instead of VR.
LifexLine, if that's the case, then why didn't Xbox have any first party exclusives last year? Why is halo in shambles? He's had years to right this ship, and has failed to.
Considering they are saying they won't ever be out of third place and that good games don't sell consoles, don't get too excited. Their attitude doesn't support innovation and a drive to push forward.
