MTV Ad for Xbox360..
- Thread starter EndR
- Start date
Judging by this generation, a whole lot of devs won't feel terrible about not keeping up with the elite few. GTA and Renderware is a prime example of that.Jaws said:
Close enough. But hey, now King James will sue instead!ector said:

Without losing track of the original statement by GameMaster,
The GameMaster said:
...If your gonna use the lowest common denominator with middleware, like Renderware, then that 'ease' of development will apply to ALL next gen consoles...not just Xenon...
...But GameMaster is still talking about the games 'achieving their full potential'...so the point still stands about tuning and optimising multi-core, multi-threaded, in-order CPUs being harder than Xbox...
You're selectively picking things to support your point. He also claimed that Xenon development was easier than Xbox development. So you see, you should have been more specific in the first place.Jaws said:
If you want to debate the second part, you'll have to wait for GameMaster. He never specified what it was easier than.
I really hate this PR bullshit.
What the hell does "development on Xbox2 will be easier than on Xbox"??
Does it mean that the same game, if it were to be programmed on the 2 consoles, would be easier to program on Xbox2? Why would you do that? People will program Xbox games on Xbox and Xbox2 games on Xbox2!
If they're talking about 2 different games, then how can they quantify what game is easier for what platform?? Man-hours? There are different assets, different budgets, different devkits... It's like quantifying how much quicker it is to manufacture a TV compared to a toaster!

Err no. It's metal reflecting a yellow-ish light.

Not being selective here as we're both trying to make different points (not that your points are invalid), which is why I reposted the original statement. This is understandable when discussing by proxy and the original posters context is lost...

True, that would be easier...

Since when did Microsoft reveal the Xbox 2/Xenon name btw? I find it strange so many people use 'Xbox 360', when at the same time there hasn't been any confirmation of this. This teaser commercial is another testament to this, it's just 'Xbox' in another font (maybe it's just that?).

Well it seems that it will be called Xbox 360. Nothing would be dumber than calling it just Xbox, and all the hassle it would create.

The name Xbox 360 has been mentioned by a few websites, but not by Microsoft, I stick to 'Xbox 2' untill the MTV event sheds light on the name.
This is it?
Is this it, or just another concept render?
