Oh. So how does the kool-aid taste?

Ask yourself.

The cloud isn't going to upgrade graphics anytime soon, but drivatars works perfectly.

Really tempted to report that post, just fyi.


Go ahead? 

"Cloud powered oponents" is a PR term used to convince people of all this "next gen" technology, when really, it isn't. Games have been able to do this for a while. Maybe you should do some research before you blindly accept what is really defined as next gen, and then threaten to report somebody who actually knows what they are talking about.

What makes you think its a PR term? Yeah MS have gotten a lot of stuff wrong this year...but i dont see a reason why they would lie about drivatars.

Basically they are storing lots of data on the way your friends drive...crunching all the numbers in the cloud and coming up with dynamic AI drivatars that mimic the way your friends drive. Its a great innovative concept that is probably made more achievable because of the cloud.

Yes cloud has been around for a long time...but this gen MS are actually giving devs the resources to use it in a way thats more meaningful than simply multiplayer.
