I swear I picked up Xbone being missing from another FDSU in my local Tesco (COD) the other day, but didn't think anything of it. But maybe it was the Ass Creed FDSU I'm thinking about? Oh god, I don't know.

Don't take my word for it, I'm tired and my mind could be playing tricks on me. I'll check tomorrow if I get a chance, or someone else could. They have them in most superstores.

If I'm wrong then that's at least a good sign.

edit: no, I think it was Ass Creed. ignore me.
 
Really? Really?

At least 4 other insiders make similar claims but

So can someone give me a legitimate reason to believe these rumors other than "lol they've been right before"? As someone who likes actual proof, and doesn't know who these supposed insiders are, All I see are random twitter accounts spouting more rumor nonsense with nothing to back it up other than "a dev told me this!". Not really impressed.

Junior member since 2008 ? Hmmmm
Lmfao Not impressed with this post
 
did ya'll miss this?

A quote from my dev source last night that I didn't put in the article.


Me: CBOAT has mentioned that execs messed with the console design from day one.


Him: Yes. MS does not view this console as a 'games console', despite their last 4 months of convincing otherwise. Its all smoke & mirrors. MS has invested more money in opening studios to produce TV content than any game's studio for next-gen. Their focus is not games. Remember the earnings call from summer 2012 - they now internally refer to the platform as an "Entertainment Platform".


Me: Madness


Him: There are tons of other issues... its amazing how quiet the industry is being with so much going wrong on this platform.

I...eh...dont have a answer then. I know here in DK we arent getting a Xbone til next year, i dont expect AC4 or any game to be here until next year.

But its suppose to be there in UK, and the inclusion of the 360 logo is even stranger.

I honestly chalked it up to , eh maybe MS are still being super secretive with the One's logo licensing or didn't have it finalised by printing and thought 'I don;t want to cause a fanboy shitstorm by posting drivel' and left it. It was only the comment about it AC4 above that reminded me I had it on my phone.

That isn't my fallacy's final form yet!





Ah, thanks. This means that the system will be able to maintain framerate since the resolution is not that high. Didn't MS say that framerate stability is the king? I believe in MS.
This can't be real. When did Chinner change name?
 
It is NOT always that simple. Blurring content is NOT always technically legal.

If MS actually wanted to put the doubters to rest, they could march their console in front of the press in a live press conference, and show any fucking thing they wanted on the screen while doing the live UI demo. They could do all the kinds of things Sony had the balls to do TWO MONTHS AGO, live at Gamescom.

The press could stream the live video, because under the doctrine of Fair Use and the protections of the 1st Amendment, the types of "licensing issues" Albert Penello is attempting to hide behind DO NOT EXIST FOR THE PRESS.

If they are so absolutely confident that their UI isn't a crash-fest, they could rent a hotel ballroom and conduct this press conference in a matter if hours. But no, they aren't doing that.

Instead, MS is choosing to make laughable excuses why they can't show the UI, and must show the pre-baked "representation" instead. And you are jumping through hoops to defend him and being rude to fellow GAFers for what, exactly?

Please, respond to this post. I want to hear why MS can't do the above and why you are here defending them.

Crytek devs says otherwise about ESRAM. So, What's going on, "thuway"?

What did you expect Crytek to say? They're making an exclusive for Xbox One.


I took this weeks ago when the promo stands for AC4 appeared in (UK) stores and never posted it as I couldn't be sure of any significance. I still don't think there is any, but your post reminded me of this... note the missing logo, heh.

Has this even happened with a multiplatform game? The publisher not even including one of the platforms? I'm confused, why would they do that?

I get home from work and now there's more drama. God damn.

Xbox One is a total mess. Good thing I cancelled my pre-order. For real. I'm glad I'm not gonna be dealing with that clusterfuck until it's fixed.

So everyone has a different source- some say it works very well, others say it is broken beyond belief!

Who to believe?!

It is Polygon, but still.

I'm worried about PS4's OS too, going by what has been said. It doesn't appear as bad as the One's, so at least there's that.

It sucks that both consoles are coming in hot.

Only thing that would make sense is that those posters were printed before the xbox one reveal. During that period where the ps4 had been announced and the Xb1 not revealed yet trailers used to end with a similar screen.
 
Crytek devs are making an exclusive for xbone. At this point I believe thruway more than Crytek.
There is not a single reason why you should diss Crytek devs opinions. Their reputation is on the line.

What if "thuway" dev source is making an exclusive for PS4? Or it might be that he is pulling it out of his ass, as well?

Very interesting

Debating about trying my hand making a summary post for this thread and combine all the new info
I think it would be worthwhile having a quick scan, but I have a feeling we will get some more substantial contributions in the near future. It just feels like everything is escalating, and the jsreicher comment about it all kicking off made it sound like the press are finally getting engaged in the discussion. [edit] That was my interpretation anyway. I can't find the quote right now.
