It'd a retarded marketing hurdle is what it is. All I'm seeing on twitter these days are know nothing yobbos spreading fud about tflops this and tflops that. You get crap like "Ain't nothin gonna beat X series X, there ain't no PC with enough flops to beat it!", and that's just one example of the crap some people spread over there. Colteastwood is doing a bang up job on spreading misinformation and making Tflops his main boasting point for Xbox, to a point where he's downplaying PS5's supposed specs, and then his fanboys downplaying PC at the same time. I wish that Xbox's marketing team wasn't so high up on spreading bullshit information or trying to warp it to make it sound like it'd be something the casual or laymen folk would know about (but they don't, so now we're seeing this shit spread like wild-fire, just like "blast processing" from the old days). I honestly wish it'd stop, because it just makes some folk look really, really stupid. |
I had my experiences with our marketing department. We had to add extra (crappy) features to out product because the wanted more bullet points on the box than the competition. It didn't matter if it worked well (or actually useful to anyone) as long as it could be mentioned on the box and used in those useless comparison boxes with tick marks. But it works to fool the general public.
I'm looking forward to the spec details marketing comes up with for next gen :)
