So people can't be skeptical, in your world? 

They need to blindly praise anything you blindly accept as the second coming of Christ?  No questions asked, ever? 

That's what you're here for?


It would be nice for the same 10 posters or so that constantly whine about the XBO to actually give Sony and the PS4 the same cynical pessimism, but they dont and wont.  This isn't skepticism for the most part is just blindly hating a product based on rumor and speculation having seen neither product in real life performance.  We didn't even see the PS4 running the games at their reveal yet everyone blindly believes everything they saw on screen. 

 

Will cloud computing be beneficial in future or not remains to be seen and I credit the OP for at least putting his opinion out there, what find annoying is that anyone who disagrees with him should post in his thread.  To disagreee in this thread would mean being set upon by the same posters who always gang up on other users and shouted down with the same baseless arguments already had in dozens of threads (wah wah wah, the internets not fast enough).  Frankly the same shit is getting old very quickly now and I really cannot be bothered posting on the forums at the moment as its impossible to avoid the mountain of trolls ploughing through every Microsoft themed thread.


So being skeptical = being a hater? Are you suggesting I'm a hater?

Because that would be laughable, if that's the case.  If not, I can understand your point to some extent. But I've seen plenty of MS fans doubting that feature as well. So what's the big deal. As far as I'm concerned, I'm not saying it's impossible. I'm saying I'm skeptical it can provide as big a performance boost as they claimed it can during the reveal event.  I'm also skeptical about it because they haven't yet provided any actual demo that showcased the possibilities. It's all PR at this point.

And I'll make this clear: I don't doubt the PS4 will push the graphics that were shown during the reveal event, the same as I don't see a reason to believe the Forza 5 and Quantum Break's footage weren't actually in-game graphics.  So, sorry, if I'm skeptical about one thing about the XBO's cloud processing supposed game changing feature... There was just not much to question about the PS4's event when it comes to the specs of the console.

Oh, yes... At what clock is its CPU running?
