I didn't misinterpret or taken anything out of context. I've literally just quoted headlines of what MS's been telling us for months. Gears Tactics system requirement are a GTX750ti minimum and a GTX970 recommended... I'm not making this shit up here, but if you won't take my word for it, wait till we see the recommended specs of Halo Infinite and Forza. Call me crazy but I'm pretty sure it's not going to be a NVME SSD and a RTX2070 Super. Not saying that, 2 years from now, Series X games will still run fine on a GTX750Ti either. It will totally depend on what will be common in the average consumer pc by then. If Nvidia and AMD don't drop their prices for their current high-end cards and their new gpu's will be crazy expensive, that could very well be a GTX1060, though. Basically what I'm saying is that we don't really know when Series X will have full blown next gen games, until AMD and Nvidia announce the prices of their new gpu's and/or a major price drop for the RTX cards. |
Of course you are putting spin on everything. Or can you link me to where Microsoft has flat out said they'll have no "full blown" next gen games for years? Or how they're neutering all XSX games so that their games can also run on a "potato PC"? You can't, because they haven't said anything like that, you're just taking their comments and spinning them to what you believe they mean or want to believe they mean. Take the four articles you linked.
MS doesn't care if you buy the XSX - Adorable that you cut out the other part of the headline, the part where the article says it's a brilliant strategy. But you aren't trying to spin anything. Never mind that, nothing in the article supports the theories you are throwing out about the direction MS is going. It also says that of course MS wants people to buy an XSX.
Google/Amazon - This is only about streaming and Papa Phil has multiple times stated it's at least a decade away from being the standard. Also irrelevant to what you're saying about XSX and potato PC's because streaming content doesn't require any hardware. You can stream games off of a television. That doesn't mean MS is designing games to work on a Samsung TV.
Matt Booty quote - He said at the end of 2019 that for "one year, two years" games will work across both consoles. You've repeatedly said it would be longer, talking sometimes about four and five year cross gen support. So again, here is you putting spin on things people say to suit your opinion.
Feel of 60fps quote - Here is where things get taken out of context. You've used this quote to imply that Phil is running damage control about disappointing footage of games from the "conference". Or, you've implied that MS is focusing on making games work on every possible device and thus they don't look impressive graphically. In the actual podcast Reginald asks him about any aspect of showing off next gen that has been difficult due to COVID and he replied about people not getting a chance to hold the controller and feel the games. He mentioned the Wii and how if you were just looking at videos of the games or videos of people playing, you wouldn't see anything all that special but once you held the controllers in your hands and played, that's where you'd connect the dots. Obviously the difference between watching and playing won't be as jarring with XSX as it was with Wii but his point is legit and it's also something Sony will struggle with.. as soon as they actually show some games anyway.
So please, don't talk down to others about how you're "just repeating what MS says" because you aren't, not even close :)
Regarding Gears, you made reference to the scalability of Minecraft and Fortnite which have integrated graphics as their minimum specs and called that "potato PC's" so of course now you're shifting the goal posts and I guess a 750 is the same as integrated lol. Funny, per usual.
