Well, he is right. FUD summary is awesome. LOL

Yes, he was. After Crackdown 3, he was really pissed at MS. Worth watching :



Anyway, what i've noticed he isn't that extreme how he has been when it was in Xbox camp. He calmed down somehow. Probably enjoying playing PS4 exclusives


His video is actually what I fear about Game Pass. When you just want people to subscribe, does the individual quality of any one game really matter? That's my biggest fear and until Microsoft demonstrates that they care about excellence I won't be supporting it.

Thought exercise:

What would Xbox Series X, Microsoft and the landscape in general look like if Halo Infinite had been designed as an Xbox Series X exclusive? How different would things be right now?
It depends what the mainstream engine that the game's renamed engine is based on - as unless you are a small indie with the technical ability of Hello Games or Idsoftware under carrmack, how many big (+50 programmer) developers can manage staff turnover if the game engine isn't based on some well known standard at its core?

I suspect most single player games made by large developers focus on using Unreal and customising heavily, and most highly successful multiplayer games shop around for one that can meet their needs while keeping their license costs down, as was probably the case with Titanfall.

If I had to guess, I would say Destiny looks like it is using Unreal, and Halo probably did in the past, but given that Microsoft's Visual Studio has had Unity game development integration for years, and Infinite looks closer to the Unity demo video(for WiiU) than the Unreal 3 Samaritan demo IMHO I suspect Xbox has a great license arrangement with Unity and with a highly popular MP game like Halo, profitability was worth moving to a cheaper engine - and if this guess of mine was correct, then the delay for Infinite might mean that it is being moved back to Unreal from Unity

So to finally answer your question, probably not a lot better if it has constrained visuals because of its mainstream engine being behind the cutting edge.

Cos he said GTA6 was a PlayStation timed exclusive and some windbag in this channel bet me an entire week ban if true. If it is true i get the ban if its not true @Ass of Can Whooping takes a week-long vacation.

Also have spoken to the mods and if I am right, we get a combo deal.
yewles1 yewles1 @AeneaGames Gamernyc78 Gamernyc78 R roops67 all get added for the week ban.

Taking out the trash, making space for more my kind.

Fish power :messenger_grinning:
Wot! I don't remember agreeing to this, something fishy going on around here... yes lame joke I know!
 
His manner of writing rapid-fire incoherence makes this indistinguishable from loony conspiracy theory twitter

His writing is indistinguishable from a flat-earther rant in a YouTube comment. Random spaces everywhere, spaces before punctuation, no grasp of how to use uppercase letters. From what I’ve seen and understand of his approximate age, I think the guy genuinely has cognitive/emotional issues.

For sure, not to armchair psychoanalyze him but it’s clearly an unhealthy hyperfixation that’s getting the best of him

I wonder if he’s a real person or some AI experiment. Really, I can’t imagine a person spending so many time, energy and emotion on those things.
It happens pretty often, some neurodivergent people will place a large portion of their self worth or identity on things they consume. A lot of times its harmless but other times you'll get things like this, or like the guy who trashed his room over horizon coming to pc, or the people who freak out over star wars and sonic

MBG is what happens when an Xbox fanboy that sees that the Xbox has no games, so went PlayStation after waiting and waiting years, and let sweet, sweet GOTY winning games regain his sanity.

Timdog is what happens when you don't go PlayStation, and your entire grip and sense of reality are just eaten away by the void because he's not able to play sweet, sweet GOTY winning games.

Great post again sir. Thanks for the data.

I wonder if IBM ever reworked the tech into other products.

Thanks. No problem.

As far as I can tell, the only other products that have traces of CELL's DNA are IBM's family of POWER CPUs -- starting with POWER7+...

"We took some of that genetic material from the Cell program--ways to do floating point (calculations)--and embedded that right into the Power7 core," -- Bradley McCredie

Crazy how Sony are still trying to hit the cell targets now ,but in a different way. Especially the "Offload whole process from GPU to SPU". Cerny is still trying to pull it off. Ahead of its time tech.How ahead of the curve are Sony.

Hard to say, but SIE did come to market with a modern heterogeneous architecture (CELL) five years before AMD did with its integrated CPU+GPU heterogeneous architecture (the 'Fusion' APU)...

slide-19-l.jpg


and Shuhei Yoshida once lamented that Ken Kutaragi was always five years ahead of where they (he and other execs?) wanted him to be...




I find Yoshida's complaint (Shawn Layden and Shahid Ahmad's whining too for that matter) funny though. He (they) fail to realize Kutaragi being at least five years ahead of where they wanted him to be is the reason Cerny was able to immediately pull a more efficient version of asynchronous compute off PS3's post-mortem and suggest its implementation on PS4 (it mimics the PS3's SPU Runtime System (SPURS) which allows it to be more efficient than other platforms with AMD GPUs (PC included) when simultaneously performing asynchronous compute and graphics processing).

That's an example of future-facing hardware released in 2006 informing the custom design of PS4's most important hardware feature which can't be duplicated on any other AMD GPU, as the customizations that make it possible are proprietary (derived from CELL's SPU task manager) to SIE and reserved for PS hardware.

People hyping up 120FPS now. GT was 240FPS/UHD back then. Sony's R&D labs must have so much cool tech. Imagine getting access?? I wouldn't understand the tech ,but got damn I would be like a fat kid in a candy store.

You and me both. My brain would be going haywire from the "sugar rush".

Devout loyalist. Seems like a good chap in need of proper guidance - our expertise at SIA. Care to point in the right direction?

It seems the Sony ninjas are a real thing! imagine leaking something from an anonymous account and Sony tracks you down by your writing style, must be like some CSI thing.

Not only Sony, any big company where you can work basically make you accept a NDA where if you talk too much well
you can say goodbye to you career and possibly face more legal consequences, now that I think about it if
someone breaks a NDA it is worse than if a president of some country is accused of corruption ... wtf with this world

Also here is the thing or Golem knows basically all the industry or "its" source is playing with him, just now
RE8 pass from 1080p to 1600p.



I believe in that guy because you guys told me had real sources, but sorry I don't think he knows in that way
more than one person which access to the dev kit of PS5 which will risk his career to said details to a guy which is
mod in one the biggest forum in english.

that was a tasty meltdown though

"after playing God of War and Last of Us i'm beginning to understand what quality means"

Damn, Crackdown 3 was so bad. I don't get why they insist on buying that shit and defending that constantly when they could play so many better games. At some point you must open your eyes. The same people defending Halo Infinite today...

Holy shit, that's a great and funny video, his ranting was hilarious! thanks for sharing!

So just because he doesn't understand the tech behind what he is being told by actual developers working on both systems the statements he relayed from said developers are somehow deemed false?

Wow Sony camp is really reaching on that one, sorry... this guy has obvious inside sources and has been correct on many things but now that he said something negative about Playstation he is no longer to be trusted?

You people are a weird lot sometimes haha

If he can't understand what people are telling him, how can he know who is a dev and who isn't?
