Could be... but Cory had alluded to that not being a thing. Maybe we'll find out differently. Could also be SOCOM. Hope we find out soon.
Cory also lied about not being at E3 2016, then snuck in and live demo'd the God of War reveal. He likes his surprises. I hope he keeps hinting "nope" cause then whenever the next God or War reveal is, it'll be a bigger surprise.
 
Or the clever tricksters over at MS found a way to do a combo disc. Ie. An Xbox One will read it as a 50GB disc but the XSX can access the remaining 50GB as well?

----

Hmm, just checked. Normal format has 2 layers of 25GB each, the UHD variant has 3 layers of 33GB each.

Perhaps it is possible to make a hybrid disc, 2 layers of 25GB and 1 layer of 33GB, giving you 83GB total instead of 99/100GB.

Not sure if that is possible but would be a neat solution tho!
I doubt Microsoft would invest the money making a new disc format. Easier to just stick with 50 GB BDs. They are focused on Game Pass anyways, which is digital only so I doubt they care about discs as much. If a game needs more than 50 GB, they might just ship it with 2 discs or have the rest be downloaded.
 

Sony Dual GPUs - calling misterXMedia alert....

Sounds like

.. or an update to Sony´s own Checkerboard technique. Not sure, what "cloud gaming" has to do with it. At times, it reads like they´re "offloading" parts of the videoframe onto a server?

I just had an idea about streaming wouldn't it be nice to be able to have a choice to either install or stream from online pre rendered cutscenes in video games.
That would reduce the file size for those with an internet connexion and for those that don't just install the videos the filesize would be higher though but that's it.

But probably scripted dynamic cutscenes would take little to no place at all.

That would not work with games like TLOU2.

Which games can MS show at this point? They have The Initiative game that is probably even further from release than what they have already shown.

"Holy shit I can't believe they're showing that", at this point only a few games could generate a reaction like that, something like FFXVI tease or something.

MS already shown multiple 2022 and beyond games, looks like people are setting themselves up for major disappointment again.

Sony at least might have some realistic big reveals like a GoW sequel, Uncharted spin-off, new Kojima game, ND's multiplayer game, rumored Silent Hill and so on.

Does Imram Mention FF16 or is this a game that brought up because it would be unbelievable? At work now cant listen, thanks.

Fixed the hypetrain I posted

Very interesting video by Digital Foundry analysis of Microsoft's Flight Simulator 2020 on PC.

"However, a generational leap in fidelity obvious comes at a cost. On a Ryzen 9 3900X with an RTX 2080 Ti, ultra settings at 4K means frame-rates in 30-40fps territory for most of the time. Variability in frame-rate depends on how close to the ground you are, or how close to the clouds you get. The cloud system, for example, is very heavy on the GPU, while low altitude flying at ultra is more CPU-intensive, to say the least. But fear not, because Flight Simulator scales very well both on the GPU and CPU, based upon various graphics options they offer here."



Ive said it before, but those clouds are thick af. Shame im not into flight sims, but I know a few who definitely are. If they included this in XGS they would've been in a much better position... so why didnt they?...

If Microsoft has some real games to show, why are they doing that poor damage control with the new "it isn't about technology" spin? It's embarrassing but if they really still have games to show, moreso.

Would be fairly smart. They needed to have a few surprises to counter Sonys Aug event. I hope they dont hype it too much though, so if they do deliver they can get people hyped again...

btw... look like such an Xbox shill, but I honestly just want people to enjoy their platforms :3... I also have a weak spot for underdogs

Matt is going to add NXGamer to his shit list soon.


@NXGamer Dont hang out with MLID my man.


I think hes (nx) already regretted it... :X

Edit: Id really like a podcast with NX Gamer, Lady Gaia (other place), Shifty Geezer (B3D) and mb Dr Keo... I think that could be interesting... After the teardown btw.

No, I brought it up as an example.

Ah, I think if MS has any big announcements left its probably either splinter (probably timed exclusive or exclusive reveal) or whatever the initiative is working on. I seriously doubt any Japanese publishers are signing marketing deals much less exclusives with Microsoft besides sega.
 
Sony marks the difference between PS4 and PS5 boxes
Microsoft does the opposite once again

EeCMWTnXYAEyslr

I just wonder what does those (4K Ultra HD, HDR, Smart Delivery, Optimized for Series X) add more than simply having (XBOX SERIES X) up there? It just sounds like when you're trying to sell a car you say "It has 4 wheels", no shit?
 
Duh, that's strange - won't PS5 have full BC with PS4? Why the hell do they need to release two separate versions of the game? If there's something we don't know?

PS4 uses older Bluray that's 50GB per disc, PS5 uses UHD Bluray. Xbox One S, Xbox One X, Xbox Series X use UHD Bluray, but not the base Xbox One. So that means it's mostly older Bluray as it won't work on OG Xbox if not. And Sony believes in generations, Xbox not. It's easier to recognize that white stripe when shopping for PS5 games, and PS5 disc should easily have PS5 graphics, no duplicates, 10% better overall compression, the Xbox version either have them in if the game size overall is small or need to download the patch from the internet.
 
Did you make the xbox song? :O
Can't stop humming it at random times of the day ever since I heard it m'dude!!

I want my sanity back :messenger_tears_of_joy:
Me and the homie sickhumortv made the song the other gamer homie kingmatic made the beats ....sickhumor deserves credit for the hook lol ...thanks we are happy from the reception we've got from it....got tired of hearing garbage ass rapper make gaming songs.
 
Hope this is true as it sounds awesome! Is he reliable?
He's very reliable. He was one of the Game Informer journalists that was laid off last year. He 100% knows things. Admittedly he doesn't describe much in detail in the video, and the co-hosts don't press him to elaborate. I should note that he was the first person to leak that a Spiderman game was very deep into development last fall.

He notes that Xbox's "holy shit" moments are Xbox Game Studios games. We haven't seen what The Initiative is working on. Maybe the Coalition is in early dev on something too? Make no mistake he wasn't trying to suggest that Xbox has the same number of big reveals on the way as Sony. Just that they do have a couple.
 
Listen up Mammoth , no more lip from you.

I have already put at least a dozen people in their places, and I don't want to do that to you, not cos I don't like you, its all the extra cost involved with the reinforcements to support your Buffalo butt. You have been warned.

I guess they are hyping up a TV? 🤔

" With the coming Revolution spearheaded by a new console generation and PS5... we're not sitting idle!! Watch for new from us! "

Roughly translated.. I'm not from spain.

Yup, it's Sony XH90 (X900H, X90H, XH9000 depending on the market). It's now the best value for HDMI 2.1 with one of the best picture quality, color, motion, upscaling as well for LCD's. Me and my older brother are getting one each.

I'm considering buying a TV to move my consoles to my home office/hobby room, so I'll take look at these.
