Yes. Ripened tools help. Developer familiarity, too. Same thing occurred with PS3 and Cell last time around.

ESRAM is a handicap for now but a workaround will come.

Hardware power is always behind though. Never changing without a complete hardware update. 900-720p will be the norm. The games will be good though, and that's what matters. They'll just struggle more to work on the Xbox One.

I hug you friend Flash. It will get better, I promise.

 

[maximum360]

This was pretty much expected. ESRAM is just an extra hurdle on the Xbox One side.

Sounds like what I was expecting down the line in terms of differences between the two versions but I didn't think the eSRAM would be that much of a handicap. I knew it would be harder than PS4 but I didn't think it was actually going to be hard.

 

[jwk94]

yay!

Yes and no. He says games will normally roll around 720-900 which is unfortunate.

 

[Mihael Mello Keehl]

ok, not buying a handicapped system first though, when it ripen yea

 

[EchoChamber]

i hoped the norm will be aleast 900p -1080p

 

[LNBL]

It will al get better he said, I believe.

 

[TheExodu5]

No big surprises here.

Fits along with Cerny's claim for a second renaissance of development with the PS4 in a couple years.

Handicapped how?

It's more difficult to work with and get the same performance out of, is how I interpret it.

Developers will get better at using it.

But it will never change the fundamental hardware disparity.

 

[Gaz_RB]

Man I hope they get the XB1 up to snuff soon.

 

[sestrugen]

Handicapped how?

As in devs don't know how to benefit from it yet but they will eventually, this was expected but it's still bad form for MS just like the cell was for Sony

They are stuck with what they have for the rest of this gen. You can't split your base.

Handicapped how?

In laymans terms it's a pain in the ass to code for.

 

[CambriaRising]

Clearly he is lying, Cboat doesn't say positive things about the Xbox One.

[WeAreStarStuff]

To be expected.

Why not?
They're competing with Apple after all

 

[Bsigg12]

Handicapped how?

I would assume until devs had had time to really work their engines around the way ESRAM actually works, to fully utilize the bandwidth it offers, it would result in the Xbox One versions being on the short end. It's expected. Hopefully it doesn't take too long though for this hurdle to go away.

 

[Tallshortman]

Handicapped how?

It's not GDDR5, it's more difficult to work with compared to the more straightforward and faster PS4 memory architecture.

It's kind of like a poison candy with a sweet caramel centre, still gonna kill the fuck out of you but it will taste sweeter overtime.

Will they actually have a hardware redesign and fuck over all the early adopter?

 

[KungFucius]

I am getting cold feet. Ready to cancel the preorder.

 

[StreetDisciple]

It was a pain seeing the PS3 struggles early in its lifetime. I suspect X1 will be the same way.

 

[Disco Batman]

This is what most rational people would think. Though the warriors will never let the hate go. No matter what side they are on.

 

[Kaako]

Makes sense. 720p-900p will be the norm on xbone I guess. 1080p norm on PS4.

They can't afford fragmentation, see Android

A hardware redesign will be purely cosmetic. They will not change the core specs, it will be the same for rest of the gen. Whatever they can do they have to do it before the system launches.

 

[Reluctant-Hero]

See, CBOAT isn't all doom & gloom.

And 720-900p will be the norm for launch, right? Not the for the life of the XBO?

[Paskil]

I agree that there will be many good games on the console. I am already jealous as hell that I'm going to miss Dead Rising 3. Given more exclusive games, a price cut, and/or more disposable income, I am sure that at some point in the future, I will have a XB1 under my TV. Seriously hope that the people buying it enjoy it.

For life.

It seems that he means that you can't change hardware, and it will be 720-900 the whole gen.

 

[reKon]

that's great and all but it's really going to need exclusives

 

[Averon]

Makes those claiming the esram would be some kind of ace in the hole look even more silly.

 

[shinra-bansho]

Unfortunately, no. He's stated that 1080p will be the exception not the norm throughout the gen, and to expect 720-900p as the norm.

 

[coldone]

Did the eSRAM get over clocked too ?. Was it only the compute units in the GPU.

They should just over volt the entire system !!!

Life.

With 32MB of ESRAM, DDR3, 16ROPS and 1.18TFLOPS....

Has anyone other than Proelite mentioned OS crashes and freezes? That sounds nasty but I haven't heard it gaining steam among the insiders like the usual big rumors do.
