I'd be fine with The Vaginatron 3000. Just give it to me.
That's still .2 more flops than some people are expecting.

That Chinese Microsoft guy teasing something in Weibo(China's Twitter) today.
So Rare and Lionhead will show their new games at next xbox event !?
Rare -> New IP ?
Lionhead -> ??? a UE4-powered game?
10 days, 1 hour, 30 minutes
This is why I can't come in this thread, stop reminding me already. lol

We already "know" Rare is working on a physics based Kinect game. I'm sure they're also gonna revive one of their old franchises.
Lionhead's MMO-style game will also probably be shown.

Can´t wait for double Kinect action.
Oh look the resident troll is back, you do realize you've basically killed any kind of credibility your might have had already?

yea now that EA and Microsoft have entered a partnership, I expect EA to show Dragon Age 3, Titan and Battlefield 4 multiplayer at the conference.
Exciting stuff ^_^

Sorry man all the shit rumors have killed as good as any hype.
We need some small developers tweets next week. And a new OT the silence from microsoft is kinda hurting hype.
So basically you're going to let unfounded rumors destroy hype for something?
Sounds more like you wish these rumors were true.

EA only has Respawn exclusivity for MS all other rumours are poop.

Look up my post history.
You can clearly put my in the xbox corner for sure.
But 1.2 TFlops is for personally a bit meh.
Dont get me wrong 1.8 is also meh.
For always online internet here in the Netherland is fairly stable dropping like once or twice for a morning or a afternoon.
So not a big problem. That is why i want some developers tweet to get some hype because the specs rumors aren't doing it.
Edit: Hype + 1 didn't see above tweets hope to see some cool ARPG with combat and bosses like dragon dogma from Lion head. Nothing better then go shadow of the colossus on a huge dragon.
Given that twitter contest stuff, we have to see Titan at the event right? Might not be gameplay, but we'll at least see a teaser. I really hope we see gaemplay though, because I'm super curious to see what a game allegedly running on the Source engine looks like on a next-gen console.
.. on p.o.s. ddr3 memory
amirite?
thats exactly the absolute SILLIEST reason for ps4-only guys to brag.(not you)dragonelite said:
given where pc high-end is today, BOTH machines on paper seem to be not ahead, not equal, but behind,
and its a bit funny reading stuff like "1.8 beats 1.2 oh yeah!!"
unless there is some magick sauce we are missing, neither wont be enough for a good "console generation" as these two companies like to calculate one.
p.s.
I like that Chinese tweet. what else that guy says?
rare has delivered some pretty great experiences like nuts and bolts.
I expect great things from them.

I'm really curious to see what Rare has been working on. The most exciting thing is, we have no idea what kind of game it will be.
Like I said before you're going to let rumors that no one can even prove to be true or false ruin any hype for something? C'mon now you're a adult think for yourself and don't let rumors stop you before you even hear something official.
You can put every positive and negative rumor about the next Xbox together but it still wouldn't amount to anything beyond speculation and unverified sources.

I'm not even sure where they would get that info from. Unless they work in an outsource studio or something.
I'm ready for something that isn't Fable. I would prefer a new IP but a new Black and White would be nice too.
If they went through the trouble to hack for information I would think they would be trying to sell information about it.

That would have to be it. Or they are hacking into MS.

I have a 4 TFLop card that can't run BF3 at 60 FPS locked...I was so disappointed with it. Tflops don't mean crap. More recently a convergence of good art and good tech has impressed me the most. Case in point, Bioshock Infinite!! Great art + solid tech = beautiful game. Infinite blew me away, Crysis 3 did nothing.
Rare is said to be working on multiple games recently, there were rumors of them working on a water based race, they've been hiring a crapload of people from Codemasters, and not too long ago they were looking for people with FPS experience and said to be working on a shooter or adventure title.
I thought we've known for a while that flops mean just about nothing.

Xbox 360 had 1TFLOP of computing powa!
So hilarious how many people were nutting themselves during that reveal video. It was so painful.

Well lets not say that they mean nothing because thats not entirely true, what they mean is a maximum throughput of floating points operations the system can do.
What it is using those for on the other hand is another question and also a lot harder to answer.

I'm especially intrested to see what Lionhead and Rare are working on. Phil Spencer mentioned visiting Lionhead recently. Ted Timmins is a designer at Lionhead.

Which translates to nothing in real world rendering performance.
It's a very wild benchmark.
If Durango has less FLOPS and lower memory bandwidth, why would it's rendering performance be better?
Strawman much? I like how you brought in lower memory bandwidth into the equation.
FLOPs don't determine real rendering performance.
Angelus Errare
Banned
....because memory bandwidth is important in graphics rendering?
Baconsammy

The same reason why many people think Wii U is on par with PS4/Durango
The world is full of so many perfect gifs.
Because you wanted to bring something that actually mattered to performance in order to make FLOPs look better....
Memory bandwidth = important.
FLOPs = Dick length contest that means nothing in real performance.
FLOPs are like saying that on paper my truck can pull X amount of weight, it means nothing in the real world.
I think Rare may be working on 2 games. 1 physics based Kinect game that will be a showcase for Kinect to and ready for launch. And a hardcore IP they will revive that will be announced but not for launch window. Lionhead will liekly be back with Fable except it will be much bigger and focus on online multiplayer (basically MMO). We'll also get the usual racer for launch (PGR5) and Ryse whioch will be a hybrid controller and Kinect game. Finally the big megaton will be Tita being exclusive as well as exclusive DLC for major 3rd party games.
Are you trying to say that FLOPS don't matter to performance?
