Yeah, of course. But the way i read his comment was that he misread the statement.
15 percent (%) less than the last model in power consumption. That is what it means, someone just added a space where there wasn't supposed to be.
For most people, it is perfectly fine - sort of. But i'm an extreme nerd, so it isn't for me :(
Yes, I've been using it since the beta.
Are you kidding? For a business desktop, yeah, windows will nearly always win. But network resources and services in larger more demanding networks will more than likely run linux services, if not - windows server and active directory, which will tie into other network resources which will be ran on linux machines.
And even if it isn't Linux, you'll have things like specific VM systems running on a unix based system, because the resource management (including desktops) is far su...
I'm a PC gamer, so i still use windows. But it is a terrible operating system, using old outdated technologies that were not a good idea when they were invented, and shouldn't still be there now - registry anyone?
Linux is a far better operating system, it would run games better than windows given the proper support, and infact would run anything better. The same with Mac OSX - that will actually run games better than windows, just that you're stuck to their hardware and there is...
It isn't exclusive. :\
And everyone already owns a PC, be it capable of running any decent games or not. Most recent PC's will run games at better than console settings with a graphics card update.
What i was doing was making the comparison, you don't JUST use your TV for gaming, you actually watch TV on it - which is why it is a bit silly to include that in the price. Same with a PC, you don't JUST use that for gaming, you do so much more with it, so the price isn't £xxx for a PC that you will do...
A TV can be added into the cost, it serves multiple purposes. You know, like a PC does, a PC isn't just for gaming and watching a few films, it'll do thousands more things than what a console can do.
Exclude the price of a good tv, and then you should exclude the price of all the components in your PC that you would consider aid the running of games. There is £400 straight off my PC. You don't have to pay much at all for a PC capable of running games better than consoles, an...
I agree with the topic, i don't particularly like the writing style though.
But i have a PSP 1000, but could not use it. The shape and size kills my hands, i can't use it for longer than 15 minutes. I hated UMD, and actually made a post on a forum before the PSP Go announcement, or even hints - that i would love a smaller sized PSP which is based entirely on digital download.
So went out to get my PSP Go as soon as i could, and love it. The PSP is a really underrate...
Regardless, it is a very juvenile writing style. The last time i heard someone describing something or someone like that, i was in secondary school.
Nightfire was brilliant too, remember playing that locally for months. I wish we had another bond multiplayer game, a proper one like nightfire - that could still hold up today with some updated mechanics and graphics.
Online gaming should never be at a premium charge, of course - MMOs being the exception.
Fine, charge for all the extra stuff - do that all you want, you can sort of justify those charges. But no one else has needed to charge for such a service, and i pay for a game - i shouldnt have to pay a further charge when i get that game home to pay the other half of a game i have already paid for!
Don't blame Jaffe though, it isn't his fault that he can't use twitter without people making an article about every little comment he makes.
Its a shame it isn't coming out on PC anymore. The graphics engine had great potential for this game, yet it is being limited by weak console hardware.
Well the fact they are inferior on other platforms shouldn't really mean anything, the 360 (and PS3 for that matter) counterparts of PC games are inferior, yet we don't call them PC exclusives.
But other than that, i agree. The word exclusive means that i have to buy a platform to play the game, if i didn't already own a 360, i wouldn't have to buy one to play mass effect, gears, left 4 dead, etc as i can already play them with better performance, graphics, control, modding and o...
What people need to understand is that this man is one of the biggest reasons we see massive growth within the industry, his own ideas, not collective marketing schemes, first party development studios - but ideas spawning from one mind.
Yeah, some of the hardcore may not like the direction they went with the wii and ds, but to ignore the massive growth they have brought to the industry, how they got people who would never previously think of gaming at all in mass numbers.
I thought PC gaming was dead, yet the manufacturer with the smaller market share is selling 6 million GPUs?
Great to see God of war 3 in that position, it deserves it.
No. I'm sorry but while some of the statements from Steve were extremely hypocritical about it being propriety 'n all this, many of his points were completely spot on.
It is too resource intensive for what it is, it is buggy and is limiting progression. Having this mindset does not make you a fanboy at all.
