Forums - Microsoft - Update: Xbox One 12GB RAM upgrade debunked by Microsoft

Thanks for the reply x2, had missed that but good to hear it's still on track since it was meant to be the first thing given with psn+ as the instant game collection on ps4. looks beautiful as well.



Why not check me out on youtube and help me on the way to 2k subs over at www.youtube.com/stormcloudlive

In all seriousness, did anyone actually believe this rumor, all things considered? other than the obvious blind fanboys i mean?, are there any level headed xbox users who thought 'actually given the announced specs, unit price and retail price more ram doesnt make much sense'?

 

whats obvious to me is that the site is fishing for hits, playing roulette with luck, think of it this way, anonymous sources mean bo accountability, 70% certainty is enough to get peoples juices flowing but low enough to say 'oh well' if it doesnt happen, they make this claim and their hits explode for a while, if its found to be false then 'hey we got it wrong' but still benefitted in a spike in his and ad revenue, but if it somehow does happen, even if it was only a guess on their part, they get the benefit of being linked the globe over as the source of the initial news, hits explode again, revenue explodes, links to their site increase exponentially.

With that in mind you see why gaming sites have such a compelling reason to post these sorts of articles even if the author knows it to be 100% guess work, because they have no real negatives from doing it especially if theyre a small site, and fanboys the world over lap it up for fun.

Microsoft has gone 180 on the majority of what the Xbone was supposed to be about. 12 GB of ram wouldnt even be closed to being used up by the end o the gen.

I'm quite sure that if Sony had started with 12GB you would have praised their vision and attention to gamers. But whatever.


You would think so from your perspective, but im not like that. 12 GB wont be needed until the gen after this next gen. MS went back on nearly everything they've said about not being able to pull a 180. What a word, eh?

There is no better ram than more ram.

In 32bit Windows, more RAM could be a bad thing.

Yes, but the Xbox One, along with the future Windows 9, are confimred to be 64 bit only.



 

Really not sure I see any point of Consol over PC's since Kinect, Wii and other alternative ways to play have been abandoned. 

Top 50 'most fun' game list coming soon!

 

Tell me a funny joke!

Man were you complaining about anything when the Xbox One was announced? I mean wwould you really want to go down with the ship? If you were complaining any at all you sound ridiculous right now unless you wanted them to release the system knowing full well it wouldn't sell as much as now. Do you want them to fail?

You say I sound ridiculous, yet I am correct that they went back on everything they told us they couldn't fix. Do you want to find you major nelson telling people Microsoft cannot fix specifici things about the Xbone and within a week to two months....shazam! Rectfied. One thing certain members of MS was doing as well was acting like the things the core gamers would say didnt matter. Im no fan of Microsoft and never will be but their fans dont deserve that. I am glad they are now getting a better console with more to offer. Its basically a mirror of the PS4 now. They will continue to make tweaks as Sony shows what else they had to offer. Last week they didnt have a headset on the Xbone and Sony shows off a headset, then MS decided to add it. They should've had it from the beginning. I don't know how you call find it amazing that they would have to fix so much before the launch. This has to be the gaming industries words pre launch where the gamers had to fix all Microsofts mistakes before they botch their launch. You can admit this I am sure.

Major Nelson tells Angry Joe he knows nothing of what he speaks pertaining to the launch of Xbones features which will not be subject to change and that its not that easy to fix. Bullshit...the last four months has been a complete 180. 

This guy is a 360 fan mind you and wants a Xbone, but MS didnt make it very easy.

Now...tell me how many thing has Sony had to change about the PS4 after their unveiling in Feburary.

Microsoft has overturned....

- Various policies which would be forced upon us at the hands of DRM (averted a hostile relationship with Gamestop)

- Overturned the indy Policy

- Clock speed

- Headset bundling

180's Expected soon...

More Ram

Graphics increase

Positive influence from the competition:

-Games for Gold

Negative influence upon others:

- PSN Plus includes multiplayer

Are you mad about the changes or that this guy lied? It seems like your angry with ssomething. If it's about the changes all that bitching was veryyyyyyy loud couldn't be ignored. The lie I hope you're not mad because this dude lied. I still remember "Toy Story like graphics" lol. Dude be real this isn't the last time you'll hear a lie from Sony or MS. The system seems great ATM to me. When will you be satisfied? 



Interesting, this would be really huge if it was true, hopefully it is, the more the better but I'm skeptical.
