Forums - Microsoft - [Unofficial Rumour] World Exclusive: Durango unveiled

Busted said:
as i don't fully understand what this means i've said it before and i'll say it again, no 4k 120fps = no buy, well see later this year.

My god you have completely unrealistic expectations.

THERE WILL BE NO GAMES IN 4K @ 30FPS, LET ALONE 120FPS.

720p60fps will be standard with 1080p30/60fps hitting a good percentage... and that's a very good step up from what was here this gen.

Assuming that info is true, then is the Wii U - Durango gap bigger than the one we had with PS2 - GC/Xbox?

I ask because some people were assuming the Wii U would be 'the PS2', while Durango/Orbis would be 'the GC/Xbox' as far as power/graphics go.


The Wii U is looking more like the Dreamcast compared to CG/Xbox if anything.



Before the PS3 everyone was nice to me :(

good, bad, garbage, awesome?


It means the next Xbox runs on pure magic, ponies and whimsy.

At first I read that as "magic, ponies, and whiskey" which would have been much more awesome.

All I care about is that Ethernet port.  With that, the Wii U is officially doomed.

why is that significant when it has wifi?



Xbox: Best hardware, Game Pass best value, best BC, more 1st party genres and multiplayer titles. 

 

From Neogaf:

I believe these are accurate, though, again, the extra hardware they don't explain will play a major part in what Durango does. I've also heard from reliable sources that the GPU CUs are super-efficient, with an aim for almost 100 percent usage at all times. The 360 hit around 60 percent, I understand. Like I've said previously, context is going to be really important for both systems.

Why it has HDMI IN?

Why it has only 1 USB 3.0?

Everything else seems reasonable guess because I was not expecting a 4k compatible gaming machine. Maybe their next one after this will be 4k.

Because it's a joke that references the big Wii U Ethernet scandal of 2012.

People keep talking about the next Xbox having some sort of secret hardware.

Does anyone have any clue what it could be? Duel GPU possibly? I just can't really think of what it could be

Kinect 2.0, which might include all kinds of stuff, like that projection rumor.
