Forums - Microsoft Discussion - What happened to "cloud-computing = better visuals"???

Only one person actually believed this. I'm not gonna name names, but you probably know who I'm talking about.



Sigs are dumb. And so are you!

Only one? I thought a whole group of gamers believed that!

I think in the end it will only works like Steam/PSNow...



I do think some people still believe it, I mean, look at some forum post that were made recently. Some people just buy every single PR speech.

On my ends I do believe in cloud boosting performance but it will not have much to do with graphics...



RIP ps3, xbox360.

welcome home ps4 and X1

I was joking. I avoided all of this cloud computing stuff actually.

Hilarious considering that was enough  for Microsoft to lose faith, make the ultimate 180, and drop kinect.

Wouldn't the ultimate 180 be the DRM reversal. Or putting a new GPU in all future Xboxes? And not Kinect.
 Besides,  what does that have to do with this conversation? 


"Xbox One is Kinect. They are not separate systems" That was never said for DRM or the GPU ...

As for relevance, your comment implies that we're being hasty , desperate and should wait for results. That 6 months is nothing. Yet none of this was true for Microsoft's actions regarding their most important issue. If you fail to see the irony, I cannot help you.

I'll tell you this though, based on the numbers of failed promises and reversals I don't think it's fair for you to mock or dimiss the skeptics 



Like all technology this will take time to exploit. I do believe in cloud computing as it's not some unrealistic thing. It's just too advanced right now and might costs a lot of money to operate.

People on the internet want things done as soon as they hear about it or they will immediately consider it non existent, heck this cloud computing thing is not a MS only research it's coming from other companies and other segments too.

There are multiple problems with cloud computing though. Bandwith is the main concern (I live in Canada and we have the shitiest bandwith possible) as cloud computing and even cloud streaming won't take off for a long time.

But seeing as MS can't do anything good, maybe they should've kept their mouth shut and keep developing until it's ready... just like DX12 which was announced like 2 months ago and they clearly stated that the first games to use it would be towards the end of 2015... people still brag about it's non existence as of today... like we're already at the end of 2015... logic am fail.
