In other news, Microsoft's Xbox One to include Kinect sensor and cancellation of the dreaded DRM policies announced this spring. ...
Old News Brah!
I'm pretty sure the fog has cleared. I don't really think there is any thing to be hidden any loner. 3-4 months ago, I could fully understand people feeling this way. But at this point, you know what your are getting, so if you choose not to get it than i guess it isn't for you.
well, i wouldn't say under performed. I know you are a professional analyst, but I beg to differ. Their projections as far back as mid 2013 are being hit. It's just that sony is breaking their own projections, this is why MS feels pressured. Thanks for your insight though, it is really much needed on a sight where not enough kids waste time/space by pointing out their own little opinions about the financial state of a mega-corporation. You must have had great marks in business school....
I hope he wiped his mouth when he was done
I didn't think it was odd. He actually gave us an honest answer. Clearly he knows some of the in-house stuff may reach 1080/60 (Halo, maybe?), but also is aware that the console just will not hit 1080 consistently. Isn't that what we all have kind of known already? I bet we will see more games reach it, but it will never happen at the same frequency as with PS4.
Spencer tends to give realistic and honest answers. If he had said "more game will reach 1080..blah b...
You would almost think that if Ryse and Thief run at 900p, that PvZ could hit 1080...but I guess not, plus it is 60 frames. I guess they felt 60 frames was important enough to sacrifice some resolution. Still, this is the kind of compromise devs will always have to make with x1. It's not that games can't be pretty and detailed, it's that they must sacrifice 1080 to do so...which is kinda lame considering that 1080 is the standard for displays now, and 4k is on the horizon.
I just find it amazing they couldn't come up with a better track than that. It was the same every time. If I was in the audience I think I would have noticed it. Just sad.
It irritates me too, in NY 12am PST is 3am here. What this actually means is that we have to wait until it is midnight in PST , so we do not get it early, we have to wait 3 hours for it to be released on the other side of the country. If I go to gamestop I can have it 3 hours sooner. I will prob sill just download it, but that is deff an annoying little stipulation.
what fresh and exciting new topic!
I actually think it is insane that you do not have internet...but I do not know your situation, so I can't say anything beyond that. It is too bad you cant play, as this title is a must-have with out a doubt (provided you are a fan of FPS).
They weren't willing to make it a kinect title.
Ha, I was thinking the same thing when I read this. I had no idea there was one in the works...you usually here about these things.
Any ways, I haven't truly enjoyed a THPS title since the underground games back during the ps2/xbox/GC era. I hope if they make one, they try to use that same formula that made the first 6 games so fun.
I'm sure you and your family are pretty irrelevant too...in life
Crazy how things turn out. I really do think that at the very least, this gen will force MS to be more focused on exclusives and fostering creativity...at least if they want to compete with Sony at any level. The brand is still pretty strong it its core markets, but it will take more than halo/gears and one titanfall to hold their ground. They do seem to be more focused on exclusives already, and I hope that continues.
@FarEast, I hate to see them pass on any creative exclus...
@ultra...Respawn was adamant about owning any IP they make. So while they have signed a publishing deal with EA, the fact that they own the Titanfall IP means that EA can not simply milk it at their own leisure.
That was part of the issue at Activision...they began "outsourcing" CoD development to Treyarch and milking the franchise for everything it's worth, at a time when Zampella and friends wanted to let it rest and explore new IP. This is the reason they w...
Really cool that they have a rich world around you while you play. I really hope they follow the trend of online shooters having a co op mode where you fight waves or something. Great dlc opportunity. Would be very cool to have that. It could even follow some side story to expand the lore.
I don't see why the disagrees...this is just my honest feelings about the game graphically. I have seen these types of comparisons in person as well, and I was not trying to downplay the PC's differences.
Sounds like to me that many people just disagree that I like the way it looks? IDK, weird site this is sometimes.
@Allsystemgamer, I actually agree with what you are saying, the difference is there. But it really doesn't look so bad on x1, actu...
From what I can see the PC version is a bit smoother, but other than that?....Besides, like you so sarcastically put it, there is no surprise. I'll tell ya this, the beta looks really nice overall on my 42" plasma at about 6 feet. No way to deny that 1080 would have been a nice little bump. Oh well, looks good, plays great.
My bro still has 360. I traded all my stuff in to get x1/ps4...FML. Maybe ill play on his? Fingers crossed for a next gen port.
@bolts, I got x1 first, but the best thing I ever did was jump on ps4 early. Now I do not need to miss out on anything, and the "console wars" do not exists in my realm.
Still, I love my x1, and this type of news has been more prominent lately. I always had a feeling that once the x1 hit the market and things began to flesh out a bit, that MS would show us plenty of reasons to have one.
