so much whining by the haters. overall it was a pretty good to great show. only lacking gameplay footage in a big way.

Largely agree. Very impressed with the services aspect, which is what I expect from MS as a whole.

I wouldn't call the whiners, haters, though. Their interest is just more focused than ours.

But I thought the conference was bumped from 1 hour to 2? What's after CoD?

huh that explains it.

Doesn't give you more trannies....

Did they say 5B transistors for the SoC or the whole main system ?

"Super elite task force" "you are the underdog"

Yep, breaking new ground there :

well, that was....

A little more TV talk then I would have cared for but not a bad reveal over all. It looks like some folks here were expecting a full game conference but we knew that wasn't going to happen.

Compare it to Sony's unveiling conference and you can understand the irritation.

 

[Bagel seed]

BF4 > CoD?

 

[Tap In]

Bottom line is these devs are making the games on ONE, knowing the specs of the competition and it appears as if there will be little difference between games multi...


you won't notice on tv at home just hardcore DF watchers

Compare it to Sony's unveiling conference and you can understand the irritation.

and even the Sony one was slightly underwhelming by showing demos we had already seen before and no real plastic.

40nm soc

That can't be right. They'd have to move Jaguar and GCN back one node. Weird.

Too bad the lighting and shaders still suck.

40nm soc

I'm interested in finding corroborating details on this.

 

[BRiT]

I dont believe they ever said 40nm at the reveal.

Please keep any non-reveal talk out of this thread.

 

[Ruskie]

So I waited 8 years and I should be wowed by the visuals in Ghosts?

 

[Billy Idol]

Oh boy...I am shocked.

COD GUY : this (xbox one) version will be the best version we've ever made, it will be the best design we've ever made.. The best version of COD we've ever made!

The arm demo feels like the Shenmue reveal

 

[Kaotik]

Any chance of the SoC using interposer rather than just throwing the DRAM on the same substrate?

 

[BRiT]

In-Engine gameplay shown now on COD:Ghosts.
