This thread aged well. Wonder if the most toxic posters are coming back to eat their crow?

somehow I doubt it.

I guess they are too busy looking for new "issues".

Just like the posters that came back to the Live is now free thread to eat crow.

I am actually rather suspicious of this "error"... Somebody went and changed the website, this isn't done by itself. All well and good if that had been there since launch of the site, but it wasn't.

Glad they are sharing their "concerns".

Mismanagement. It's a pattern now up and down the entire team.

Did I hurt your feeling ?

Hurt my feelings? How?

Mistake - RT confirmed by Bloober

UPDATE: Ray-Tracing is confirmed by Bloober Team.

: Bloober Team have reached out and clarified that the change seen on Xbox.com is a mistake and Ray-Tracing is 100% confirmed for The Medium on Xbox

xboxera.com

edit: Reported post for title change.
edit: wow, that was quick

 

[Gorki247]

Nearly 300 comments for this triviality? Only possible on GAF.

Removing or changing a logo is serious console war business. We had the change in Xbox Game Pass logo, the absence of Only On PlayStation logo, now this one

 

[Nikana]

An entire thread was morphed into meaning the Xbox series X is clearly broken and the chips aren't ready because a logo was removed which turned out to be entirely made up FUD!??

Have you seen the Next Gen Thread?

 

[martino]

both "side" could learn a lesson they will not (with also xbox live gold thread)

 

[Agnostic2020]

Glad they are sharing their "concerns".

I feel All concerns are MS fault for not showing a single cross gen or next gen game running on seriex yet 3 months from release

 

[LostDonkey]

Of course it was a mistake, they already confirmed it ages ago.

Cringe at all the people that flooded the thread with fanboy nonsense about XSX not being ready for RT lol

 

[BigLee74]

Well, this thread certainly highlights the Sony idolizers. And that's me being very very polite.

 

[longdi]

Owned haters.

Series X is just the better engineered hardware. Please accept it.

 

[FlyyGOD]

It's so weird. I really thought Xbox was prepared for this gen but it seems like they were originally planning for 2021 console launch considering how little they seem to have prepared for launch.

Jumping the gun aren't you?

 

[quest]

Its why i don't post much lately. The forum is basically scower the internet for potential bad series x news and post thread. Then 20 pages of Phil's a liar, Cerny is a god, ect, basically a circle jerk. You can't have a honest discussion about anything at the moment. It's fan boys run wild 24-7.

Nothing you have seen so far says that it is

Let them dream.

More teraflops = better engineered!!!!!!!!! Or so they say.

 

[Handy Fake]

It does look bonny. But that's a PC capture, no?

 

[longdi]

I seen the specs, i seen the Phil confidence.

I dont know.

Specs that you don't understand

 

[Virex]

These are directly from the gameplay trailer:

needs more jpeg

 

[Rossco EZ]

they need to get the builders in for some renovation work

Haha keep dreaming PS5(vegeta) is anywhere near Series X(goku) power

Phil confidence about beautiful halo infinite

So, where's that footage with RT we can watch? Or is it just another mouthful of words? Those devs already lied once that their game is possible only thanks to SSD and then we saw PC specs.

No just imagine it its gorgeous

 

[namekuseijin]

but what about HDR?

has the industry already forgot that killer-app?

being HDR RT not easy to get...

 

[N0S]

 

[thelastword]

Has Alex Battaglia confirmed raytracing in the last demo we saw of the game at the MS show?

I hope they are not putting in RT now, to save face and tank framerate with it. I find the PC requirements for the game was pretty steep for the game as it is and Bloober is not known to be the best at game optimizations, especially for the type of games and visuals they push...

 

[Hobbygaming]

Are you saying that the hardware in the XSX isn't what we were told it is?

Not necessarily. I'm just saying they've lied in the past about their console's capabilities and I wouldn't put it past them

 

[Black_Stride]

This is what you get for telling everyone you've got a massive donkey dick, and then unzipping to show everyone that half of it is your mum's favourite German sausage, that you just grabbed from the fridge.

The Series X has Auto-HDR so even if the game doesnt have HDR out the box the console will add it in.
Playing some BC games will be well worth it just to see these games in HDR.

You're being ridiculous. Sony has used faked "game play" footage in the past to exaggerate their console's capabilities. Should we doubt what was shown in their showcase as well then?

 

[sinnergy]

The specs are pretty straight forward of both , from technical make up Series X has the edge .

When most Sony games release they're some of the most impressive games in the industry. They've earned the trust of gamers

So, this turns out to be a marketing/comms cock up again, and not a hardware issue? Colour me surprised. They really need to get a grip on their messaging. Seems really weird to me how this goes on and on with Microsoft. Less about their product, more about the way they communicate it to the public.

 

[TheGreatWhiteShark]

both "side" could learn a lesson they will not (with also xbox live gold thread)

xbox live is quite a different thing, as people that are close to microsoft and journalists have gone public saying more or less that its their expectation (no matter how crazy it sounds)

also, it was not an excuse to spread FUD on the competition, as this thread's basic purpose was

The Series X has Auto-HDR so even if the game doesnt have HDR out the box the console will add it in.
Playing some BC games will be well worth it just to see these games in HDR.

ninja gaiden 2 was already fantastic on X
with HDR and -maybe- a doubling of framerate at 120fps it could very well be my GOTY for gameplay all over again

You mean website error, likely by a junior developer.
Someone updating the website left out one png and we got 7 pages out of it because obviously MS are full shit.

We got brilliant posts like:

This is what you get for telling everyone you've got a massive donkey dick, and then unzipping to show everyone that half of it is your mum's favourite German sausage, that you just grabbed from the fridge.

The tribalism is so deep people are losing their frikken minds they dont even take a split second to think critically.

Have they? I trust the developers of those games. I have no doubt in the Ratchet and Clank footage for instance, cause Insomniac has earned my trust. Has nothing to do with Sony.

It's likely they are eliminating the logo. Because it's stupid, no different to logo-ising any other feature 16x AF or Bump Mapping.

Also possible there won't be that many games with it and it works against them on balance. E.g Halo box art can't wear such a prestigious badge due to not launching with it.

No, it's because people are rabid fanboys.

Well I don't know, that's why I asked you because It looked like that.
Cool it's not the case

Wow. You're a cock, aren't you? Off you go into the magical fairyland of Ignore.

Sony helps develop the games. Mark Cerny did some work on Spider-man as well as their VASG studio
