What GPU uses ESRAM?
Xbox One doesn't need to outright beat PS4 in performance it just needs to get close, and I honestly believe it will. PS4 development tools, API, and ease of development were already leaps ahead of the XB1 at launch. I think the games on PS4 are getting more out of PS4 right now because the tools to get the power out were already good. XB1 tools were not that great point blank, but the performance was not that far off. Basically I think the X1 has more room for improvement with better too...
Meanwhile PS4 gets a 400mb firmware update. LOL.
I would be worried if I am Sony.
It's about games. That stuff is unnecessary.
OP is correct. This title is very shallow.
Physics suck, textures suck, and the story is so utterly stupid. Mission can be completed in under 15 minutes. Boss runs 40 mph.
As much flack as Ballmer gets he is the one that pushed this vision of ONE Windows, unfortunately he just couldn't push it fast enough. Looks like their vision is finally coming to fruition.
Excellent news.
Renting your free games and multiplayer is behind your paywall.
It is what it says it is but those functions are secondary.
Who plans on buying a next gen console without a subscription? Plus deals can be found $40 and under for either XB1 or PS4.
Sure get rid of the clause, but also throw out free development kits, advertising, and promotion.
Don Mattrick got fired. Not the same.
Had a chance to look at Infamous....people can't be serious this is the best graphics of this gen. RYSE looks so much better, and is far more of a technical showcase than Infamous which looks pretty bad up close.
Sniper Elite team said they had issues but overcame them with the new SDK. 10th is easy for them.
Well X has a higher clocked CPU, a dedicated audio chip, and the ESRAM can write and read simultaneously, plus smaller data pipes or move engines to speed up the cross talk between GPU/CPU. GPU power is only on aspect that contributes to graphical fidelity.
This games textures are atrocious up close.
Ryse has the the best looking facial models and animation of this generation. Sorry Infamous up close textures are pretty damn ugly, flat, and the lighting does not look realistic at all. In fact it looks very cartoony. The only technical achievement is it is 1080p. Ryse features tessellation, Parallax Occlusion, and a bit of ray tracing.

There is tearing and pop in certain areas.
Shemue was great on Dreamcast because it was a graphical juggernaut at the time but I'd say the game play would have to be radically reworked. I remember enjoying how beautiful the game was but there were times it got pretty boring due to lack of actual gameplay. It was mostly talk, pop a soda out of the vending machine, forklift racing, and an occasional QTE or fight. It got boring very quickly.
