Forums - Microsoft - Xbox Exec: Comparing Console Specs Is 'Meaningless'

Wow never expected to hear something like this coming from a Xbox Exec. mouth. If this is the cast Xbox, continue to show more unique exclusives. Not only shooters but more games like Project Spark or Sunset Overdrive.... maybe Banjo ...please :3

Nintendo agrees



“It appeared that there had even been demonstrations to thank Big Brother for raising the chocolate ration to twenty grams a week. And only yesterday, he reflected, it had been announced that the ration was to be reduced to twenty grams a week. Was it possible that they could swallow that, after only twenty-four hours? Yes, they swallowed it.”

I agree. It is just waste of time for most people other than forum dwellers. By the way have you seen Titan Fall.

When you don't come on top it sure is.



Atto Suggests...:

Book - Malazan Book of the Fallen series 

Game - Metro Last Light

TV - Deadwood

Music - Forest Swords

I could see that with all of xbone's games. There is literally no real time physics effects in almost all of them. Knack, and Infamous both show the physics processing power of the PS4. Where is the dam physics xbone. Next gen should be about how you interact with games, basically like real time destruction like in BF3/4. Infamous shows of PS4's power the best. Openworld, amazing physics effects, and real time destruction. Power does matter when you want to accomplish stuff like this.

Console specs don't matter because of power of the cloud apparently. Oh yea physics and have you seen Titan Fall. Sorry i just love that phrase. http://venturebeat.com/2013/06/06/respawn-will-calculate-physics-in-microsofts-cloud-for-titanfall/

Realtime Physics is literally the one thing that should be IMPOSSIBLE to do on the cloud. With 60fps your internet needs latency of no more than 16ms which seeing a lot of people's speedtest results ain't gonna do. Just think about it, lets say you rpg's a building and chunks of it fell on a player below. The lag due to "Cloud" will make it too glitchy for it to properly work. Oh yea I saw titanfall. ZERO realtime destruction. I get really tired of playing a game with a static enviornment It's dull and boring. Next gen is supposed to be enhancing physics and enviornmental interactivity. But I definitely did not see that aside from infamous and BF4.
