    XBox One, PS4, DRM, and You

    Massive win for consumers! Microsoft was dead wrong to try and launch a console with those features, and consumers responded overwhelmingly to get them to change their policies! :grin: I still think there price is a little too high right now versus Playstation 4, but I can now see myself...

    Xbox One (Durango) Technical hardware investigation

    I agree, just look at the Ryse and Dead Rising direct feed screens! Nothing remotely next generation about those, in fact, most current gen games running on PC at 1080p look better than that :???: I think people still holding out for next gen visuals on a console with roughly a Radeon 7770...

    Technical Comparison Sony PS4 and Microsoft Xbox

    I can't really understand what Microsoft was thinking when designing the Xbox One? Like others have suggested, it seems like the whole process was just one big failure from beginning to end! How do you end up $100 more expensive, with considerably less computational power while launching at the...

    Microsoft Xbox E3 2013 Events - Xbox: A new Generation of Games Revealed

    Well its going to be SOLD on the quality of the launch games, and those games don't look that impressive! I guarantee no one is going to be buying an Xbox One on the twitch TV, Skype, TV integration as those can be had on a million other devices!

    Microsoft Xbox E3 2013 Events - Xbox: A new Generation of Games Revealed

    They don't look great for something that costs $499 and is supposed to represent the next-generation in gaming! Go play old 360 games like Batman Arkham City, Tomb Raider, etc on a decent PC at 1080p and I guarantee they look better. I have a Radeon 7850 which is buy no means top of the line...

    Microsoft Xbox E3 2013 Events - Xbox: A new Generation of Games Revealed

    Just looking at some of the official screens for Ryse and Dead Rising 3 on Gamersyde and... there a little less than impressive, and certainly not very next-gen! When watching the games on the stream is was hard for me to determine the graphics quality, but honestly they don't look very good...

    Microsoft Xbox E3 2013 Events - Xbox: A new Generation of Games Revealed

    Just a quick review / initial impressions: Titanfall stole the show for me! Looked very much like Call of Duty: Future Combat w/ excellent gunplay and fantastic verticality. Movement looked soooo smooth and natural on top of the Titan's looking very fun to play. Everything was just really...

    News & Rumors: Xbox One (codename Durango)

    It's really a shame that they are pursuing this anti-consumer agenda, but on the other hand it's nice to see such a unanimous response by the gaming community, and hopefully this outrage translates into more people voting with their wallets. I think that's the best way to proceed at this point...

    Microsoft Xbox Reveal Event - May 21, 2013

    Terrible presentation from start to finish to the point of it being lol worthy. Everything they showed was completely nebulous and sounded like 100% marketing speak. They failed completely to explain why this appeals to casual players or the core market. The only thing I liked was the design of...

    The Next-gen Situation discussion *spawn

    I agree... The only problem is nothing you have listed here, or what we have heard about the console indicates that it represents a paradigm shift much like the Wii and iPhone were (That is why they sold well; not because the hardware was cheaper, but because the ideas and concepts they...

    NGGP: NextGen Garbage Pile (aka: No one reads the topics or stays on topic) *spawn*

    Is it just me, or are these next-gen systems starting to sound a little ho-hum? If you want me to buy something for around $300-400 CAD I don't want to hear months away from it even being announced that at best its going to match a mid-range PC! Today's' customer has way too many things...

    Last of Us [PS4]

    Came here to post exactly the same thing! I was literally shaking my head in disbelief with what I was watching! The gameplay seems completely devoid of any sort of moral choices or implications, which as you mentioned is contradictory to the established setting and themes. In what I...

    Halo 4

    I downloaded both HQ versions of the b-roll footage, and would recommend everyone else do the same! I am really impressed that they managed to make a game that was is not only better looking than the previous Xbox 360 Halo games, but also seemingly manage to drastically improve the poor IQ the...

    Deus Ex 3 (PC)

    OMG, my computer gave me a blue screen for some reason while I was playing and when I rebooted my save games where gone and the only option I have is to select and new game. I can't even see my old saves. There is no way I am going back through another 20+ hours of this game just to get where I...

    Predict: The Next Generation Console Tech

    Can anyone else think of a point in the home console market where the future of the industry was so clouded? I can remember remember last generation people had no problem speculating about the future of the industry, in fact it was basically considered unimaginable that the forthcoming next-gen...
