Direct X has laid the ground work for all the GPUs that Sony has used since the playstation 3?. Okay, let me leave this convo. I have to add some multithreaded code for a Java project at work. Lets agree to disagree on this.

"covertly"? You mean as "covertly" as Nintendo using a 32bit Power G3 variant in their gamecube or MS/Sony using similar AMD GPU for the last 2 generations
There was nothing really "covert" or special about the actual CPU part both the 360 and PS3 used. It's all coming from previous IBM and Motorola PowerPC designs just stripped down to different designs.
What you could actually argue here that 360 and PS3 wouldn't have been "realistic" without AIM's previous design work in the original PowerPC *and* especially VMX *8* years before.
Talk on physical games and distribution moved to this classic thread.

You are right. 83 is nowhere near what it deserved. Around 50 is what it actu--
If they upgraded the loadtimes, and other aspects of the game, why not? Otherwise it will get below 83 that it was given generously.
Do you have any context as to why this individual should be trusted beyond anyone else just making a pretty reasonable prediction?
He has sources. Says so in the tweet so must be true...
A social media personality who's been interacting and helping the VP of marketing at Xbox? I bet he's useless. jk.
It could be true maybe its not. Its a rumour until confirmed. But as I pointed out in the previous line, the person does interact with Xbox marketing team so he could have relevant contacts. But to me it makes a lot of business sense at the moment for Xbox to go multiplatform. The bad decisions they've made the last two gens require them to do something like that during this gen then the next one they can figure out whatever they want to do.

There are like 5-6 reliable insiders. This guy is not one of them.
Starfield has become a very good game thanks to recent updates and mods. And Starfield is NOT coming to other consoles, it's only on Xbox and PC, in Gamepass. I have a top-notch source for this: Phil Spencer.
If you want to play Starfield, buy an Xbox or a suitable PC. That's it.

Yeah I called it. I knew they were going to do this. This is the second price increase for me. Its coming at a time when they're introducing a better line up of games and its just a $3 increase so not bad.

They couldn't even wait until COD.
Also, Spencer saying that they will not remove day one games and then removing them from the standard tier is... Yeah, sure Microsoft.
Most people buy 2 full or near full price a year, and at 200-270 depending on your region, is gamepass even for price sensitive people anymore?

Odd messaging..., this once again generates noise about the company's future hardware.
Yes, making console hw isnt simple, it requires a lot of planning years in advance. They seem to be moving towards cloud gaming services and becoming a great third party developer for PC, Playstation and Nintendo. It all comes down to execution really. They can pull it off, but its possible Playstation may become the best place to play Xbox games. The question then comes to will they use litigation to try and force Gamepass onto playstation or will they be contented with atrophying Xbox hw? The direction is quite clear with the activision acquisition where things are going.
Rat bastards I swear. Just straight up lied to regulators to get their deal through.

"No your honour, we are totally not raising the price for COD, but because we just feel like it". If they were pressed on the issue, they would totally say that they are raising it because of "market conditions outside of our control" totally dodging the question and covering themselves legally.
Oh there is no chance they were ever gonna be brought up even for questions about it. What's done is done. The chance to stop the deal is long over.
