Wonder how many exclusives are left after all this. Also on how many people really need to Xbox to play all these games.
Being on PC is huge. I mean Steam alone has 125 million users.
"Like with Backwards compatibility and Crackdowns Cloud computing"
I don't remember people saying BC was not doable. As far as cloud goes, I thought Titanfall was not possible without "cloud" as well?
Everquest Next has proven anyone with dedicated server could do server side physics. https://www.youtube.com/wat...
MS is pushing their boundary, ...
There has been no confirm on 2-4 mb. They were just saying that was what they were shooting for.
Lol. For you, just about anything MS does is "setting the benchmark"
If Sony is skipping Gamescom to have their own conference, how is that setting benchmark for anything?
Thats like saying MS set benchmark for showing up...
It depends on what type of games you liked. Many thought Sony stole the show with 3 bombshells at E3. It all depends on your preferences of games.
@Sureshot
Buying AA batteries will cost you more in long run.
I think you are being a fanboy.
Funny how Titanfall was only "possible"cause of cloud. Now it is coming to PS4.
Many more technical people have said anyone can do Titanfall Cloud.
Now proof is right there. Whether it is AI or physics, anyone can do it.
It is not some magical cloud. It is just regular dedicated server that pretty much anyone has.
@BG11579
The latency becomes obvious if you have two objects with two different latency. MS chose to do all physics on cloud, so if you have latency issue everything will be consistent at least.
Onlive and Gaikai does 100 % of cloud compute to keep it consistent. You get spikes but consistent at least.
@DarkOcelet
You can say that with every MMO ever pretty much with Titanfall(you have seen the result with that)
dim the light in the setting and should last you twice as long.
Don't really see that as a problem..
If it really bothers you, buy second controller and you wont have to worry about paying for AA battery for years.
Wow. People are really desperately hoping that this is a secret sauce.
Sorry, Sony proved that is not the case by when they worked on Everquest Next.
@4show
"meaning the environment is never the same because people blow stuff up, while NPC's are constantly rebuilding in a different location."
Before Sony sold it off, they were precisely working on projects like that.
It was called Everquest Next...
This is of course assuming we will even have the option..
What if Publisher says no. We wont allow BC on X1 cause we want to sell more on remasters?
@KionicWarlord222
The twitter question was can PC be so powerful enough that you dont need cloud...
Not whether PS4 or PC can use cloud.
Answer to that is yes and it already uses "cloud". They both have been for decades.
It is called dedicated server.
and here is Everquest Next that has world wide destruction.

Dont you get it. Report fact is "bashing on Xbox" if that fact happens to be not a PR or positive news for Xbox.
Reporting on fact that COD AW was lower resolution was apparently being doubtful or skeptical.
Even though both pre alpha and final version were in fact lower resolution.

@Eogahn
To be fair he did say once he have "SEEN IT" for this article.
Basically saying he was excited upto this point.
@KionicWarlord222
I can't believe how Xbox fans choose to basically lie to themselves.
COD AW X1 version didnt run full HD. it ran 1360X1080.(real 1080P has 1920 x 1080)
That is slightly less resolution than real 900P.
DF basically said it wasnt full HD for pre alpha footage of COD AW. Never said what it will be for final.
Turns out final version did turn out to be less than 1080P.
Some ...
@KionicWarlord222
Wow. That is just twisting what Digital Foundry said. I get it. You like Xbox, but quit creating nonsense.
All DF said was it was not hitting 60fps and it wasnt. It is so surprising how people just can't handle facts.
It just get twisted into something else.
What fear?
This Dx12 only affects PC... and people who are playing on console never cared what performances are on PC to begin with.
With DX12 update, PC will have optimization like consoles. I say great, but dont really affect console gamers.
You gotta love people who says they are generally uninterested in Japanese games when it comes to competitions' games. Now, they do 180 turn and it is best game ever because it is Xbox only.
What happened to not being interested in Japanese games?
Having said that Platinum games usually have a very good reputation, so this game should turn out good.
Only caveat is it seems that they are working on PS4 exclusive and Wii exclusive.

@timotim
As you have seen, they had a game that ran on their server.
It ran fully destructible WORLD.
So yea pretty large scale
@moldbread
LOL. did you see the graphics of Crackdown? It looks last gen.
Server compute has been around. MS didnt invent it nor they found a new use for it. It still remains limited.
All crackdown has done is doing server physics that has been done before and something anyone can do.
https://www.youtube.com/wat...
Sony has done this before too on ...
I am glad they haven't buckled under pressure of releasing game early.
If the game takes longer, it takes longer. I prefer quality games of quantity. If each games take longer to ensure quality, so be it.
PS3 last gen had most exclusives in 90-100 metascore bracket. It doubled its competition. It also had most 80-90 metascore bracket too.
As far as I can tell, Sony bolstered their studio. Expanding it.
Waiting for qualit...
