And it cracks me up that the same one that say it will never work for the Xbox One, talk about how great Gaihkai will be. Which is much more sensitive to latency. What this shows me, that much like having Bill Gates personally introduce the first Xbox, is that Microsoft is very serious about putting it resources and muscles behind the Xbox One. The dedicated servers, possible per-rendering of light and stuff, will make a great and powerful service. It is a great long term strategy to provide an excellent service. |
People haven't forgotten that Sony got into cloud gaming years ago, how is that even relevant? Who said cloud won't work for the Xbox One? I don't think you actually understand why people are mocking the cloud, it's not because it's useless (which it isn't at all) or that it's inferior to Gaikai (which it also isn't), it's because Microsoft were overhyping it, making false promises about its capabilities and even implying that it will negate the difference in power between the Xbox One and PS4. Do you have any proof that Gaikai will have a significantly larger latency than Azure?
I'd like you to find one example of somebody that has said that cloud will never work for Xbox One and that Gaikai will be great, let alone another 10 examples needed to actually justify you kicking up a fuss about it.
Anyway. That was a really good video, he explained how he was using the cloud clearly and honestly.
