"We all know (well some) what dx12 will do"
Problem is now we don't.
Its all smoke and mirrors at present.
Once games start to release built from the ground up for dx12, only then will we know what its capable of.
So basically all of these articles are a complete waste of time.
Slow news day again.
I saw the trailer first and thought it looked great. Cannot wait for this to come out.
Then I saw loads of comments about it looking terrible and I couldn't understand where they were coming from.
Fallout games have a distinctive look to them and this just seems to improve upon that lovely looking trend.
Its a company name which you don't play.
You play the game they create.
Please, get over it.

He's in most xbox articles because he's waiting for some ps4 games to play on.
Nothing in your post points to MS saying dx12 will not have a significant impact upon xb1.
MS saying the hardware in xb1 is well documented is not an admission to dx12 not having a significant impact on xb1.
The hardware in xb1 is however well understood to have been designed with dx12 in mind. So the extent to the performance increase for xb1 is a question which will be answered in good time.
As opposed to the ps4 wedge that doesn't complement any other AV unit in my entertainment centre.
All subjective.
Well I wasn't going to do it just yet. Was gonna wait until the holidays and pick a console then.
However MS are doing some cracking deals at the moment and I just had a £300 size wedge burning a hole in my pocket.
I got the console, obviously :-), two controllers, play and charge kit, Halo MCC, Sunset, FH2 and Evolve all for £310.
I just could not turn up a deal like that. Plus I've been selecting the GWG when I was downloading the ...
Never been much of a Mario fan.
However things do change :-)
Yeah man. The graphics had parallax scrolling which was something amazing for the time.
And the audio was totally cool. I remember not being bothered when I got killed, as the death tune was awesome!
This is quite funny.
Just how many people on here have one of these lambos at home to compare either game too?
So put POM back in the XB1 version.
If there is no noticeable difference to frame rates, but a drop in visual clarity, put it back in.
He'll live long and prosper in our minds.
Has someone built a time machine?
Out of a delorean?
Predicting the future just became a whole lot easier. Hmmmmm.
Some people are thinking that DX12 will stop the continual upgrade path for gpu's, or at least slow it down.
I think it will have the opposite effect. Developers will see the 'new' performance available to them, then create games/engines that push the hell out of pc's even further than they could before.
At least we'll get much more awesome games a lot sooner than I thought.

"Microsoft has never been terribly creative".
"Most large companies are not creative".
And just how do you know this?
Some guy with a close link to Sony, says Sony are more creative, so therefor you are now an expert in large companies.
And finally, if most large companies are not creative, I take you mean Sony are an exception to your rule.
I understand your point of view, yet I still feel that if we sharpen our knives to people wanting to create something different, many will not get started due to the backlash that may await them.
I don't think Molyneux deliberately sets out to deceive anyone.
If you always set your goals low becuase they're easy to achieve, then thats what we will always do.
I always tell my students to aim high and don't ever apologise if you've tried...
You guys forget about all the games Molyneux brought to Amiga and pc back in the day. This guy has done way more for the gaming industry than any of you internet warriors could ever dream of.
We need people like this guy to dream about what we can do in games. Type all your negative comments as much as you like, because if you're not careful you'll get what you deserve. Bland.
Wasn't Quake2 the first of iD's games to support 3D cards on pc?
I'm sure I got it to play on my 3dfx voodoo1 card at the time.
The game looks really good.
Shame this post has been infested by some Sony guys who would have been crowing from the rafters had TR been a timed exclusive for the PS4. Well guys, its not. Now as you say, you have Unchartered4 to play. I hope you enjoy it. I'm absolutely certain that owners of XB will not care one bit, as Unchartered was never coming to a MS console anyway. XB owners will surely enjoy TR. Bye, bye.
Burn them!
They be witches they are.
