Sure SW-3995-6366-7743-7744-7894-03 37-2734-4473-6363-0718-2512-52 1 6-2573-2623-6321-5252-1172-082 9 -2525-0444-6450. To many numbers? Stupid friend codes. Seriously one of the most hated things ever and Nintendo still has them. If there was one reason the Switch is going to fail than it is its continuous support of backwater social interactions. And stupid friend codes are just one example. Of course the phone requirement for matchmaking is another. Codes should never been around as part o...
According to Steams own number less than 12% of their membership have of these high-end PC's you speak about that will run 4K games. So, yeah if you want to run these games the other 88% better have a Scorpio.
Any list you have seen is for the Alpha test and nothing more. They did the same thing when testing BC with a limited list. There is no official list. They had about 10 to 15 games BC in testing and 110 when the service went live. The same here About 30 or so for testing. No reason to pay third parties to use their games while it is in Alpha/Beta testing and definitely no reason to make the list complete at this point in the test phase. As for the service, I can attest it works well so far...
If you want to apply the same value than taking into consideration inflation, $599 for the 60GB PS3 in 2006 would mean the Xbox One Scorpio would actually have to be priced at $717.40 in 2017.
That is like saying imagine the high end PC rig was the PS4 Pro system and it had Horizon on it. The PC would be a monster. They could really push the beauty of the game, etc, etc, etc... to other levels the PS4 Pro would not allow. Point: you play with the tools you have as there is almost always something better. I am not a Zelda guy but they did pretty damn impressive work with the game as it is.
Steve Job's ghost called and says "people are holding them wrong."
@SinisterKieran Ha! Ha! You actually used that excuse. I was just kidding before I saw your post. If so, maybe they should have actually tested these devices with guys with actually man size hands.
What will Zelda have to do with anything? That is like saying Uncharted 4 is a dramatic draw for the PS4 purchasers right now. All (almost all) those people driven like moths to the flame for Zelda will already have their Switch. You better hope the draw is Mario like Horizon is now for PS4.
Wow! You work in a datacenter. Man you know it all. After reading your comment I realized you are completely ignorant about what cloud infrastructure is. You work in one area of the cloud. You actually work an area that has existed long before the Cloud term became popular and now data centers have just attached themselves to nomenclature rather than the nomenclature being built around datacenters in the first place. I am not pushing Xbox's idea of prefetching AI response here that is ...

This interview is something he does every year at GDC and is friends with many people at IGN and other gaming media. That is one of his jobs to talk to people like IGN about a diversity of subject matter concerning Xbox. Because it was GDC he was there mostly to talk about the new Creator's Program and Gamer's Pass. If you ever listen to him you realize unlike the pure fanboyism we get here he truly enjoys gaming even on all competitors devices. He mentioned he...
Sorry, Nintendo does not have the portable market to itself. Millions and millions of casual gamers will keep playing on their phones and tablets. This is not about gamers that play 8+ hours a week but, about the true casual gaming consumer. Consumers that in the past would have been willing to have portable console device like the Switch. Once again we are talking about casual gamers (the moms, dads, kids) that have abandoned desktops for the most as their computing device but, now you thi...
That is not the point. One distribution channel can easily can be dismantled when another totally different option takes over. For example, Netflix destroyed the need for Blockbuster ** or Hollywood Video with their mail distribution rental service.
Let's take the point of this story. We are talking used games. By it's very nature when it gets to the core it is a supply and demand argument. We all know that you can take a game and trade it in for a few dollars ...
Mixed reality (MR) encompasses the whole spectrum of artificial created computer environment realities. It is a term that covers the whole Augmented Reality to Augmented Virtual environments to Virtual environments. An augmented reality (AR) is introducing artificial objects into a real world. Augmented Virtual (AV) is introducing real objects into a virtual world. A Virtual environment (VR) is an artificial environment where a person is completely immersed in with no outside real object...
I can't think of subscription service that doesn't adjust their inventory over time by removing content as well as adding content. PSNow removes games. Netflix removes movies/shows all the time. Hulu, Amazon Prime, etc.. With any subscription service a company is paying a base license to use those games/media (whether they are played or not) So, if licensing expires a company may (like Disney or Ubisoft) may not want to renew it for use in this service or Netflix, etc... Perhaps the...
I doubt it. Like Netflix when they remove something from their catalog you don't get to continue to binge watch that series. It's gone from viewing at Netflix and this subscription service will work the same way. It is not like Halo 5 will be there for a month and gone the next month. Expect games that are removed to have been in the catalog for quite a while and more times than not will be mostly third party games removed. I would think Microsoft would keep their own games there m...
These are the games in the current Alpha test. They did the same thing when testing BC last year. BC Alpha/Beta testing did so with about 20 games to help iron out the kinks. Like BC, when this system goes gold they will add the other 70+ other games to the catalog.
First, I don't see any EA games being in the catalog. If they are they may be much older titles. Time will tell. But, either way EA would get paid if games are in this catalog as well and make money if they are bought outright from someone liking them after playing it in the catalog.
Second, this Gamers Pass catalog will change over time (a few things new in, something old out). Contrary to that, EA Access game...
How does this "optional" service pile on costs to you or anybody that doesn't want it? Argument is only valid if this was not optional and required. Don't like it, than don't purchase a subscription. There is no pile on if one finds value in the service. You act as if something has changed: you can still buy games in the Gamers Pass catalog or not in the catalog with or without using the service. More options provide a diversity to customers to choose from that best f...
Honest question. Do you know anybody that uses PS Now on the PC? I know people that (still) use PS Now on their PS4 but never on a PC. Just curious if there are actually people that regularly use the PS Now service on their PC.
