Yeah, Hoping that all of MS first party studios get early access to Direct X12, will be awesome, other exclusives should too =P but it's probably too late for Sunset and Quantum Break to use it now since they are coming this year


Phil Spencer said Xbox already has access to "some" of the DX12 features so im sure first parties will know about these.  So that should help a bit.  However it wont be until 2015 before we see games having access to all the features.  The good news is that most games in developement at this moment will have all of DX12 support.  But yeah neither SO or QB will have full DX12.

Brad Wardell is the CEO of Stardock,

XBox One is the biggest beneficiary; it effectively gives every Xbox One owner a new GPU that is twice as fast as the old one.

Lol.. Brad Wardell is MisterXMedia confirmed?

I was reading the link and this guy is one of the most clueless twits so far. He doesn't even get it that the major benefits of DX12, like Mantle, is the removal of the "Draw Call hell", hence improving cpu usage, NOT gpu usage. Fortunately we just had the Build conference where one of the SoC head honchos talked about the the very subject. Amongst other interesting stuff, he mentioned that the Xbox One OS structure already had this key component of DX12 built in _right at launch_, so no freebies here in the future. I really wonder how such a clueless guy can make such ridiculous statements and not being held back by people in his own company, like ALL programmers..

I shouldn't have said anything... now I'm going to have to try harder, lol. 

Also, I don't know how you, or anyone else could get a top 10 diamond rank, that's insane.

Apparently Microsoft is desperate even when they didnt even say anything xD

Either way DX12 is sounding great as numerous statements has been praising it.  Whether or not it doubles performance or not we are still going to see a performance boost.
