You do realize that apparently lots of the first pary devs have had the tools for Direct X12 in their hands for a while now.

So the second wave of games will be hitting soon and probably Direct X12 with it.

Says the guy who first of all called this a "Dumb Article" when it's a videocast.
And then makes it sound like Direct X12 will have trouble bringing games to 1080p...And like 1080p is what devs should be aiming for.

Did you not learn from Thief?

Let the first party games speak for themselves when you compare Direct X to Open GL.

You've got no idea how a Graphics Driver works do you?

Dude...that's not on purpose...That's poor coding. I'd understand if the Enemy AI had a REDUCED line of sight for detecting Companian AI for that to make sense. But I've seen on several occasions Bill/Ellie run in a full circle around an Infected/Bandit and NO REACTION.

Sorry if you're a fan of Naughty Dog but that's just bad, especially when the whole Ellie AI was what most of the hype for this game was built on.

They sacrificed AI fo...

It's called giving games a long lasting plan...Lionhead is doing the same with Fable legends giving it a 5-10 year plan.

It's how you build on games and make strong living worlds for players. Have you ever played an MMO? If you aren't a bit ambitious the game will blow.

Going off the original Xbox comment...Bringing Titanfall into the cluster of exclusives would be like bringing back Mech Assault for all the Xbox fans back in the day.

They've got some great diversity..Between Remedy making Quantum Break and Team Dakota making Project Spark.

Microsoft Game Studios realized that when you give people the tools to make games and mod games....crazy fun ideas come out and they funded Team Dakota.

It's my #3 favorite game of all time. I'd say it delivered strong and story and combat. Just had completely awful Companion AI. They don't react to stealth situations in a way that makes any sense. They run around enemy AI and the enemy AI doesn't recognize them. Still hasn't been patched so yeah. Not the best game in the world...But still a really fun and awesome experience.

Alan Wake still is my favorite game...Followed by Ocarina of time.

Sony is using Open GL
Microsoft OWNS DIRECT X

That may be what stops Sony from acuiring rights to Direct X.

I've been saying this for months that Microsoft is one of the lead software companies...If people think they can pull off Ray tracing and tile resourcing to the point that it effects performance.

People said the same about how the X1 cloud would work when it's able to off load tasks which allows for more RAM usage on loc...

Your name is such a contradiction. Everytime I see anything about the power of DirectX you dismiss it...Clearly you've got some issues and don't know wtf a Software Lover is.

No my dad taught me that anyone who wears a beanie and walks around like he's cool is a dirty hippy.

Now that would just make the PS4 the WORST place to play Watch Dogs if that was even an option. This game isn't designed to be a "Joke".

Internet doesn't have manners.

GDC isn't a live event.
It's a conference.
Game Development Conference.
They'll be some leaked videos probably.

Microsoft has a really good OS team so I wouldn't be surprised if they could fit this into the X1s systems. No way in hell they wouldn't prep it for this since they released X1 last year and Direct X12 will probably hit next year.

How is the X1 "the worst possible version of the game"
IDK if you know this or not but if anyones going to get the most out of Direct X11.2 it's CD Projekt Red.
Direct X11 > Open GL... When you know what you're doing.

And the reason I'm not getting it for PS4 is because I don't own one...Still haven't been given a reason to pick up a PS4, big KZ and Infamous fan but it looks like Shadowfall and Second Son are steps back in term...

To play the game where I won't be tempted to Mod the shit out of it.
X1 will be a straight run where I'll be wanting to do achieves.
PC will be modding the shit out of the game thanks to "RED Kit".

If If any "Third party" studio is going to max out the PS4/X1...It'll be CD Projekt Red.
I'll be getting it for PC and X1.

State of Decay has renewed my hope for future Zombie games that don't suck.

If anyone is a fan of zombie games and hasn't given State of Decay a look they're missing out.

Course that's because Undead Labs is dedicated to delivering a strong zombie experience. Can't wait for Class4.

You want couch co-op/MP? Get a Wii U or X1.
Gears
Halo
Fable
Mario Kart
Mario party
Super Smash bros
PvZ Garden Warfare
Etc......

Sony First party studios don't believe in couch co-op. They don't like sacrificing graphical fidelity and textures for Local MP instances.

That's why I'm disappointed in what Playstation has become...It used to be a platform I'd invite a bunch of fr...

No No No No...Hopefully Platinum Games is working on THEIR OWN franchise...I want Crytek working on Ryse 2.

Ryse was an awesome game with a great story and killer ending.

They've been hiring quite a few people with Hack & Slash experience since Ryse was released... So they're more than capable of making Ryse games.

Platinum Games has a very talented team but I think they would cripple Ryse.

There is no "might buy an Xbox One"
Microsoft is probably going to lower the price a bit but not to $350.
They'll do exactly what Sony did last generation...Continue to pump out strong First party and third party games in order to keep people buying consoles and software.

The under dog status has shifted and Gears wont hit for another 2-3 years.
