They said it was coming January 15 on the X release live broadcast. A little disappointing, but not too far off. I actually bought this over Forza 7, because I love its open world nature and Project Gotham like arcade style gameplay. January 15 cant come soon enough!

Im right there with you. Its definitely the CPUs holding back consoles, but what is the excuse on the PC side? PC gamers have access to the most powerful CPUs in the world, along with physics chips and yet no games truly take advantage of more than graphics. Its obviously consoles that hold back the cross platform games, but what about PC specific titles?

Im not a PC gamer anymore, so any PC gamer out there please inform me if there is any game that pushes AI, physics and ...

While the visuals look good, I think they can do better. What I want more than anything else, though, is exponentially better world simulation. Better AI, physics and open up all or most of the buildings. Make a living, real world economy. With real world businesses and tons of ways to spend your money. Which is the biggest issue with the game now. You can earn money in a million ways, but theres only a few ways to spend it. With the ease of stealing cars and getting away with it, buying them...

It is amazing how much they are doing with the game while still running at 60fps. Its what happens when your game engine uses hardware optimizations that almost every other engine forgoes. Async goes almost completely unused by most and it is the key to get games that look this good running at 60fps, taking advantage of unused shader cores by using them as mini CPUs to calculate world simulation, physics and AI. This is done through a combination of hardware and software to take advantage of ...

Also... when asked about 21:9, Phil said not yet. So I imagine 21:9 support is coming sometime in the future, for those who own ultra-wide monitors.

Im a bit confused. CD Projekt Red didnt say anything about HDR, but Microsofts question seems to confirm its existence in the game.

“What does 4K and HDR mean for your game, games in the future and development at your studio?”

Holy God... if the 200+ hours Ive already played without even touching the DLC wasnt enough... Now you spring 4K, 4K textures, Ambient Occlusion and higher quality shadows on me.

Well, there goes another 300+ hours of my life. I love you CD Projekt Red.

People love witch hunts. Ridiculous.

While Im not a developer, I understand their need for alternate means of monetization of their games. Game prices have remained pretty much stagnant over the last 42 years, while game budgets have skyrocketed. I dont think its unreasonable to charge people to speed up their progress in the single player game or for outfits and other items that arent needed to finish the game.

I do, however, take offense to game developers that purposely gimp a game in order to force people ...

This isnt exactly true. They showed off some incredible software for it, before its release, the problem being... it never released or was cancelled. Lionhead even called Milo(then Milo & Kate) which was one of the main reasons people actually got excited over Kinect, a proof of concept... but it was never meant for public consumption. It was a lie to get people to buy into Kinect. When people bought it(for the 360), they revealed the truth and then left gamers with whatever scraps that t...

Cant wait to see what they have in the hopper. Between the Pro and the X, im not going to have time for much else... and I cant wait!

Good. I really enjoy it on the Pro and was just thinking about how good it could be on the X. They really need to clean up the interface and make it easier to navigate. It is very convoluted. Though, the gameplay is fun and its one of the few games I play online.

Bring it on!

Very cool. Hopefully Microsoft will team up with these guys in order to allow easier access to multiplayer in these OG Xbox titles. Im sure many gamers would appreciate it.

Upgraded lighting in global illumination and true 4K for the X. Wow! It looks incredible at 1440p on the Pro. Especially with HDR enabled. I thought the X might have reached 1600p, maybe a dynamic 4K, but I wasnt expecting true 4K. Cant wait to play it on the X, its definitely a highlight game of this generation. I love the open ended nature of everything you do.

Its also getting a boost to AI, with even more behaviors being implemented. Hopefully, we are getting a season t...

I knew this looked good, but I didnt realize the Just Cause 3 team at Avalanche made it. Im not a hunter, hate the thought of killing these innocent animals, but have always enjoyed the relaxed nature of games like this. Would I ever kill an animal in real life, no. Though, I do enjoy exploring the environments and tracking the larger animals in a kill or be killed death match. LoL. Im interested to see this on the X. Should look incredible.

If they are proud of Ghost Warrior, prove it by releasing an X patch. I want to play the game at 4K with 4K textures and Ultra settings, or at least very high.

Looks like Ill use one of my free Redbox rentals to play this game and return it the same day, just a few hours later. LoL.
The developers knew gamers wanted single player and knew it was going to be a big part of why many would buy it and deliver a 6 hour game. Absolutely pathetic. Im glad they wont be getting any money from me.

Totally overblown nonissue. 90% of every FPS released has single player. COD, Battlefield, DOOM, Halo, Killzone, Wolfenstein, Bulletstorm, Homefront, Sniper 3, Destiny 1&2, Deus eX, Titanfall 2, Etc...

Its not that single player has gone anywhere, its multiplayers popularity that has overshadowed it. Almost every FPS is released with some sort of single player component. If they dont, gamers bitch and they add it in the next game. Titanfall and Battlefront are perfect e...

As said very well before me, Ive always felt like the Xbox brand was a trojan horse backdoor into the services industry to compete with Apple and now Steam. It shows very well in Microsofts lack of enthusiasm in creating first party studios and games. Microsoft has a leg up on Steam, as they have a huge hardware following to fund their software service ambitions. Whereas Gabe and Steam did it backwards and couldnt get the hardware to take in any meaningful way.

If you look ...
