@Commentator.
LOL. You think Spencer is under NDA to not discuss DX12? Lol. Are you serious?
At the same time, you think Brad Wardel is not under NDA and goes off saying w/e he wants about DX12, but Spencer has NDA and cant talk about it?
LOL. THat is the saddest excuse I've heard.
Spencer does talk about DX12. He said it wont be dramatic. and will improve GPU performance on PC ONLY. Yup. Clarified it was PC only.
...
Wow. So much denials here.
Here are the facts from MS themselves:
-MS never said it will benefit X1 like they did with PC.
-MS Dev themselves said all the benefits and benchmark figures are for PC. Not Xbox.
-MS Dev said it on their website saying DX12 is giving what console has to PC
-Phil said it won't be "dramatic"
Except even MS said DX12 is for PC. Even phil said it wont be dramatic.
It is just really desperate and wishful thinking.
Giving what console have to PC (which is what DX12 is) is going to give some nice boost to PC.

As MS devs themselves says, DX12 is all about giving what console have to PC.
Xbox fans just so used to losing their "exclusives".
or having their exclusive be on PC or being timed.
@Kribwalker
Even then, MS said
"effects won't be dramatic" - Spencer
MS dev says -"Traditionally this level of efficiency was only available on console – now, Direct3D 12, even in an alpha state, brings this efficiency to PC"

Brings what console have to PC.
You are holdi...
@Mercenary
You do know PS4 also have dedicated separate processor. PS4 can free up more power on CPU on OS than MS ever could.
Funny thing was "hidden processor" has been X1 secret sauce rumor for a long time. Hyped like crazy. but it was confirmed PS4 has it.
Sony also said later in console like after OS updates and optimization, more resource will be freed up.

PS3 Doubled Xbox 360 exclusives at 80 or above metascore.
DOUBLED. Track records speak for itself.
Look at Sony's track record.
PS3 DOUBlED Xbox 360 exclusive that scored higher than 80 metascore.
Absolutely nothing on X1.
Even in the quote, it says PC. Not xbox.
Ofc desperate logic makes that huge jump.
Good news for PC, but absolutely nothing on Xbox One.
Literally no info. MS devs who made this already said the benefit was for PC. Not X1.
Article don't even mention Xbox.... LoL.
We have confirmations over and over and over that it was for PC and Not Xbox One.
Sony has been making decent profit.Not to mention their stock literally doubling.
Also, they made announcement to shareholder with their plans on large investment on gaming division.
I wouldn't worry about this as some hardship on the company or bad news for gamers. With Sony's new plan for additional investment on gaming, we can expect amazing things.
MS has already shot this down...Multiple times.
LOL. this is kinda sad.
@Turdburgler
What close associating? LOL.
Also, if you want to listen to MS, then you should listen to them telling you it won't be dramatic.
MS engineers all said the improvements figures are for PC.
Then listen to them. All it sounds like is you have desperate hearing where you only listen to what desperation tel...
Well, devs actually showed hard figure to back it up.
THis is from GDC actually tested and presented by Ubisoft.

It maybe a hard truth to swallow for some people here though.
"Well MS have got Rare's IP in their hands and that's quite powerful. But without the genius of the two chaps that made Rare what it was in its prime, will the new games touch upon that greatness? I'm skeptical."
Exactly same situation with Halo and Gears of War.
343 has aggressively recruited, but their Halo 4 scored mid 80s on meta. Still great score, but no where near Halo 1-3 scores which were amazing.
Now Gears of W...
I've played it recently.Have to say, it got pretty good.
It has good production value and really good customization.
Anyone who didnt like it due to beta and launch issues, I think it is definitely worth a revisit.
Also, anyone who is raving about this. the article is about 50% experience potion for 2 hours. and you have to wait 7200 secs between potions.
2 hours is really isnt that bad, imo...
@BigPappy.
Even DF said it prob wont be same because X1 is so far behind.
Also, I thought we already got like 5 secret sauces?
7th CPU unlock, Kinect unlock, OS reduction, some new API from multiple updates ago.
What is really sad is how you buy into those crap and we just got slew of games where X1 is now lower in resolution/graphics/and performance.
LOL. Gap just got increased.
and DX12 is shot down again.
"As expected, it's immediately apparent that we're looking at a sub-1080p presentation here."
Exactly. I thought some people also say you cant tell those apart. Even DF sometimes play it down. but i guess it is now immediately apparent.
It always have been and always will. You can notice immediate change when your computer goes to 900P and yes. your PC/Monitor upscales it to 1080P. still obvious.
@Never4get.
...
Digital Foundry shot this down and why it is PHYSICALLY impossible.
Unless you can transfer data faster than speed of light.
