It's not that I love MS... It's that I like Sony less.

It's almost certainly some form of Ryzen. It'll be interesting to see how MS handles the Scorpio's abilities when considering making older games look or perform better. Something like boost mode is almost a given at this point.

Live ghosts is an oxymoron if you think about it. Humor aside, this is looking pretty good ATM.

Not like N4G ever does anything to stop the BS anyways!

I'm just trying to be like everyone else around here, spouting whatever BS they feel like even if it makes no sense. Only difference is that people who do it to MS get upvotes, while people who do it to Sony get downvotes.

Maybe they'll announce a new partnership with Remedy at E3... which SHOULD be Alan Wake 2.

Are you going to say Sony doesn't do it with PS Now and PS Vue? Or that they said that they didn't put a 4K player into the PS4 because they believe more in streaming?

It's the fact that MS was designing for the future is why they had the idea first, and now the future MS envisioned is coming to light for all companies.

Dreams can turn into reality. Make.believe never will.

Phil mentions episodic content delivery as a possibility as well, but yeah, the service is looking pretty sweet.

Phil also said, in regards to having full DX12 in the XB1, that they knew what they were doing with DX12 when they built XB1. This statement ties directly into the R&D budget buletpoint above.

BTW, that load of pants is going to drop it's bomb right on your head when in the next few years the XB1 HW outperforms the PS4 thanks to innovations like Nvidia just demoed for devs to build into new engines. MS may even have engines ready to show games running on this yea...

Nintendo intentionally shorted the Wii big-time. That way anytime anybody saw one they'd grab them. Working at Gamestop, they would send nothing for weeks, then dump a truckload all at once and everyone would buy them immediately because "demand" was so high.

I guess here's where I am confused still...

Killing Floor 2 is 1800p with checkerboard rendering, right? Based upon what I'd read, I assumed that meant it rendered at 1800p, and checkerboarded to 2160p. What you're saying though is that KF2 runs at 900p, then checkerboards to 1800p instead? I didn't think it was required that checkerboarding always doubled the original resolution. To expound uopn that a bit, I am under the impression that 1800p could che...

Yes, if you live in the world of make.believe. 😉

Really? Maybe MS should snatch them up and bolster their 1st party studios!

Multiplayer beta... cancelled. Here, look at these screenshots instead!

Well, this puts my mind at ease. /sarcasm

I'd like to file a formal complaint with the Bolivian government for formally complaining.

Matter of fact, I'd like to formally complain that the cocaine production Bolivia can't/won't control is affecting people in other parts of the world far more that Wildlands is tarnishing the fine, upstanding reputatuion Bolivia currently has.

I guess you were right! I assumed it would be 1440p WITH checkerboard upscale to 4K, but there's no mention of anything besides native 1440p being described in the articles. Sorry about that!

Gareth, 1440p checkerboard is not 4K just because you played it on a 4k TV... that's not how resolution works, bud. Unless you are also saying that playing a 900p game on a 4k tv is also "in 4k".

3392d ago 6 agree0 disagreeView comment

Bust you on 4K? Lol. The beta was 1440p checkerboard. Look it up in articles from just a few days ago.

Why shouldn't I let people know when the information is wrong? Ubisoft did not say it was 4K on the Pro. Period.

Chevalier, MS is playing it safe?

Halo wars 2 is an RTS.
Sea of Thieves is an MMO.
Crackdown 3 has the first Cloud-assisted game of it's scale, taking years of development just for the technology.
State of Decay 2 is open world survival horror.

Those don't sound safe to me. FYI, none of those are traditional Halo/Gears/Forza games, and MS says they may need to reveal Scorpio Pre-E3 in order to have time to show everythi...

Ignoring anything Phil said recently, or anything that devs have been saying, about Scorpio games looking demonstratably better than Pro games you'd be right. Of course, that means you're not right. Look at the facts:

•It's not a next gen system because Phil says it uses the same architecture as XB1.
•Scorpio was actually planned from the moment XB1 launched, and 40% of the $3b MS spent on R&D for XB1 went into the development of Vega.
•M...
