I doubt this has anything to do with spying.
Has anyone thought about the raw hours of labor that would be required to HUMANLY monitor thousands/millions of recordings? There is no way in hell.
The Kinect has voice recognition so this if this is real it's some kind of word-list based automatic flag.
His birth name is Richard Smith. "Dick" was a common shortening of Richard (no idea why), very rarely done anymore for obvious reasons.
He plays into it - a long while ago he created a brand of matches to rival another brand called "redheads", as a kind of statement against local product manufacture going offshore.
He called his matches: "Dickheads".

For the love of god.. all of you.. PLEASE stop dropping a sarcastic comment and then SPECIFYING it as such with "/s" or "that was sarcastic!".
What's the point? If you wanna be sarcastic then bite the bullet and do it properly! If people don't get it, who cares? (hint: if the answer is you, then maybe it's just a bad idea).
It's like saying a joke and then repeatedly shouting the punchline over and over again.
I have no idea what the story in Ryse will be but I hope it doesn't simply depict non-Roman cultures as evil satan worshipping monsters.
The Roman Empire itself was a pretty sinister and enormously destructive tidal wave across Europe and the Mediterranean.
I would certainly appreciate that kind of depth in the narrative, would make it more interesting.
My concern would be that I would want to play the game according to whatever the original vision was. Dark Souls was just about perfect for me in difficulty - super stressful at times followed by genuine elation after clearing an area.
Say they had three modes - easy/normal/hard - which one would be "original"?
If "normal" was like DS1 I'd just play that, I personally don't need an even more extreme mode buffing enemies and bosses ...
I'm sure you crazy people don't really believe that Xbone One games won't improve. It's an amazingly silly notion, pretty much inconsistent with the rest of console gaming history.
I get that it's fun to jump on antihype bandwagon for kicks.
For all the talk of mishandled PR... even when this Xbox One dev says that Xbox One games WILL get better (read the article), they still get an uproar of haters.
What I do sincerely ho...
The point nobody is getting:
Games improve during a console generation by learning better techniques - both in terms of code efficiency and the particular nuances of the hardware.
There is no better recent example than the PS3 - you can CLEARLY see where this happened over the years.
This developer IS NOT SAYING that Xbox One games will improve no further. He is saying the direct opposite. It's right there in the article. He shouldn't even hav...
this.
The developer is saying:
Games today (this goes for all systems) are using 100% of what's available to them AS BEST THEY CAN.
In time, "as best they can" drastically improves. It's been true of every platform in every generation.
You guys don't seem to get what actually goes into a video game image.
The images you see are comprised of:
- Character Meshes
- Environment/level meshes
- Textures applied to those meshes
- Lighting models that shade the meshes
The key thing to realise here is that the world's most insane super computer 10 years from now with 32 parallel video cards would render exactly what you see above if the inputs are the same. Th...
It seems totally crazy and impossible, but technology from 2006 is not as good as technology from 2013. I mean I don't know HOW that works.. wtf right?
But finally, we have IRREFUTABLE evidence that seven years of technological advancements have lead to hardware with better graphics.
It's very interesting.
