A bit different that was part of the EA partners program which has closed iirc which was just co-publishing so they devs always kept their IP.

Here is the reason theses awards seem random and otherwise a bit crap.

Games must not have been shown at any other public event before GC and it's a paid submission.

"I evolved into a member of NeoGAF, although I like coming back here every now and again just to check up on the resident loonies." - Same here ;)
Well deserved. Great achievement by them in terms of graphics for a launch title.
"Microsoft (Phil Harrison) confirmed they had passed the 5 million mark a couple of months ago, by a good margin. Thats worldwide " - No he don't he said shipped.
"Sony hasn't revealed how many PS4's they sold last quarter. They combined PS2, PS3, and PS4 numbers together to get 3.5 million. " - Hmmmm no. PS2 is not in production and wasn't in the report. And you think PS4 doesn't have the majority of those sales with last gen dropping ...
Most likely not because it sells there they have yet to announce one expect from kinectless. In EU it's doing bad we are talking 3:1 + ratios to the PS4 although the price is not really the problem for them with EU see PS3 Vs X360 so it don't see this helping that much if true.
"It'll be good anyway, and might even spark a similar price drop by Sony soon." - It won't it's EU were sony dominated last gen and continues to do so now as seen by the recent 4:1 sales difference this year in German and similar ratios in other EU countries like so - http://www.neogaf.com/forum... There is no real reason for them to do it than to gain more marketshare w...
@Elit3Nick
Do you read past the title?
As that doesn't say that. It says they are using the same baseline physics engine but again tweaked and optimized.
Outdated doesn't mean it's not optimized. It's like saying Windows Vista was > XP because it's newer when it was broken at the time.
PCGH: What physics engine uses titanium case? Have you, for example, played with the idea to implement Nvidia's PhysX to rea...
Link?
You guys keep on saying things without the evidence to back it up.
"Exactly, the engine wasn't designed for this" - Well yh which is why they TWEAKED it for it. You know that things can change when you tweak them right. A video player not originally designed for support for hardware acceleration but getting it in an update is tweaking it. That's what respawn did. It's not the same engine anymore expect in name.
"I guess it depends on how much faith you put into the Respawn Design team to actually take an engine and...
Where is this BS from? They tweaked their engine for it.
"It's 64-bit obviously and we converted it to DX11 and part of the conversion gave us the opportunity to re-architect the engine and make it more like we wanted it to be on the memory side," Baker says.
"A lot of the work was making the engine multi-threaded. The original Source engine had a main thread that built up a command buffer for the render thread and there was a frame of dela...
Well said. I was laughing when he said "let's cut the BS" then he goes to mention BS about sold numbers for Nintendo systems vs shipped for MS.
@MrZweistein
"The article you referring to is 4 weeks old! Just sayin' !" - Well it's still the only relevant and up-to-date info from the devs.
" Is something wrong with such good news?" - Nothing is wrong with good news but trying to pass off wrong info is not right. No?
It won't.... Just like Pack-in Fifa don't help in the UK/EU none did the exclusive content.
The only way for XB1 to catch to PS4 is to do better in EU which will be difficult for MS given it's a territory that has and still is dominated by Sony.
It's a good deal if you're invested in EA titles especially Sports by affecting sales to a substantial degree I just don't see it personally.
PS Now is not really comparabl...
"this site from the next guys blog that have only anonymous sources but you (the moderators, the approvers) accept the submissions anyway without any official confirmation of the developers" - You know you are also a contributor right and can vote if you think stuff is fake. I approve and report what I think is not right. Rumors are labeled as rumors meaning not factual info from an official source. This preview isn't labeled as such and wording is presented in a way that is not...
@LieutenantDan
Good point there I agree but let's say it was legit anyways and the FW features around launch although looking back the way the info was revealed don't put confidence that his info was solid. Also the info on when the interface will be shown was completely off. The date by about a month and where it was showed was wrong but plans change so let's say they did.
Apart from that all his stuff after have been based on what has been said...
There have been signs it will come to PC one day but this seems more of a mistake like the listing earlier for the X360
@acharlez
"Just wait for the full interview.
There are several benefits that launching for XB1 may provide over PS4." - Not really about that as said by nicksetzer1 there main reasoning is IP ownership which means Sony is off the tables, EA partners program is closed so can't do that. And from what they said the other pubs they tried either wanted IP ownership or don't think it would succeed.
