So Sony recommended streaming game speed is 5MBPS...So I'm guessing if Xbox One gets it's own streaming it's going to have to be a similar recommended speed so, Would my internet be able to handle it?



Lol... D-..

Halo TV Won't Be 'Filler,' Microsoft Says
Halo TV "really matters," Phil Spencer says.

The upcoming Halo TV project won't merely be a media spinoff of the storied franchise, as Halo is the "most important entertainment IP that Microsoft owns," Microsoft corporate vice president Phil Spencer told OXM.

The project, headed up by legendary film director Steven Spielberg at Microsoft's Los Angeles production studio, was announced in May to promote Microsoft's Xbox TV Programming on Xbox One. But Spencer and Spielberg both promise the show will be more than just a promotion.

"I can't use the word filler anywhere near Halo, it just won't work," Spencer said. "If we're going to do a television series with Halo, we're going to do it the right way, and we're going to do it because we think it really matters."

Spielberg said "the Halo universe is an amazing opportunity to be at that intersection where technology and myth-making meet to produce something really groundbreaking".

Spencer also cited Forward Unto Dawn, the web series that led into the release of Halo 4 in 2012, as a successful attempt at expanding the franchise successfully into other media. The new Halo TV show could be just as successful, he said –– Microsoft recently confirmed that the Xbox One Halo title will be coming this year.

I really enjoyed Nexus.  It's short, but it's everything that A Crack in Time was - great gameplay; interesting story; beautiful graphics.  There's just not as much of it.

The good thing for me about it was that it showed Insomniac have still "got" it.  And it was made by their North Carolina Studio, which is their secondary team, which bodes well for Sunset Overdrive as that's by the main team in Burbank.  The bad news is that Burbank's last game is Fuse which wasn't received so well (but I hear the gameplay is alright, it was just the generic design which dragged it down).

Anyway, I'll leave you guys to your thread now.  If you get any more Sunset Overdrive news drop it in the title and I'll visit again :P


Will definittely play it at some point :D  Just a lot to play t the moment.  Got to catch up on a lot of stuff at the moment.

And pfft, fine, just comment and then leave on us! I see how it is :P jk

Really hope if XB1 does 1m+ in NPD, that software rose, being Dec, more weeks ect.

Ryse, DR3, Forza all did around 200k in Nov, if they could do 250k or even 300k then it stands a chance of being undertracked.

Titanfall will be 6 vs 6 max + AI:

Sounds perfect to me. After playing 32 and 64 player battles in the current and next-gen versions of Battlefield 4 I feel like that's too much. Looks like there'll probably be around 24 pilots on the map (12 player, 12 AI) plus a few Titans.

I could see them changing this
