VGLeaks rumor: Durango CPU Overview

There have been some dev tweets that loosely suggest that people are underestimating the next Xbox. Might be nothing though. Almost all the rumors in 2012 pointed to the Xbox being clearly more powerful but then December and January that changed. I think people might be assuming too much but maybe the vgleaks story is spot on. We will know soon.

We need dev tweets.

Because The G5 was not final hardware or even that close. And what we know now about the specs are development kits specs.

The G5 is akin to the Orbis devkits being used right now, it doesnt mean the final hardware can undergo a lot of change.

So I was linked to this thread on IGN (I know) by a friend.

Judging from the guys post it seems he was somehow blocked from posting his 'info' on Beyond3D and he also apparently has a GAF account.

I first tried posting this on Beyond 3D, but I guess a certain moderator wouldn't want me to do that, so I couldn't.

The best place to post this would be NeoGAF. But there's no way in hell I'll be posting it there, since if a mod really wanted to, they could easily find my registered email address and therefore find the company I work for (or even my name).

So I guess the next best place is here, since anyone can sign up with a free random email address.

Anyway, I guess I'll just post here exactly what I'd have said on B3D. It's not like I'm posting pics of Durango or anything, so don't get so excited, but this is something for you to think about.

Until the day comes at least....




Read it. Believe it. Then you might as well not bother replying since I won't be saying another word.

I mean that last part by the way. So ban me or whatever you want to do

The reactions of Sony & MS fanboys after ALL the specs are known. See if you can guess which set of reactions match which set of fanboys:

So, someone with genuine info who wants to tease us, or just an elaborate trolling attempt?

Either way, this 'info' doesn't exactly tell us anything , but with the apparent B3D and GAF links I thought I might as well post it anyway.
 
The leaked Durango specs make far too much sense (as a complete package) not to have some validity to them. The leaked specs are pretty well balanced and show a clear methodology and coherent design. The esram solution is the right size for the power of the GPU.

They could make sense, but that doesn't mean they're not old or MS didn't anticipate a leak of this magnitude and built in a multistage disclosure procedure to devs.

TBQH, I think that they're old and there's no way a lot of it is still true today, but there's no real persuasive evidence supporting either way. I think this because there's no way MS ninjas would let that happen even before the reported tightening up of security. Leaks happen, yeah, but keeping devs partially in the dark sounds harmless to me if all that happens to specs is they go up.
 
Ooooh! Another random post. Atleast this time he didnt go all out and mention the dual-APU.

I mean if he really had nothing to lose (like he claimed) by signing up on IGN, then why hold back? The more such characters get attention, more copy-cats will emerge and it all becomes all too tiresome.

One thing he's right is ... about him and the first image. It looks fishy.
 
From the First picture, he talks about his career (its a Mario under water) so his career its sinking. The Second picture, We can see the count of time with lines, since there is a lot of them it wont be release this year.The Third picture shows a "Cap" not sure, but i guess its related to the monthly caps of ISP's, so Microsoft will cap the play time of gamers. The last one its a gif, death by snu snu, lot of porn content on the next box.
 
I don't quite get the Futurama gif. Based on the episode of where it came from it looks like we're going to be happy, disappointed, and then settling with what we have.

It makes launch titles look bad, which is pretty dumb when you're launching directly into competition. Or just third-party ones, which is even dumber when you're launching into competition who have just made a big move toward dev friendliness.

Fortaleza glasses were marked for 2014 in that old roadmap. I guess there's a chance they could have pushed them up.

It's not out of the question they show them off for release next year to complete their 'vision' statement. Kinda like how Sony showed off all that Gaikai stuff that may or may not even be happening.

How would it make your launch titles look bad if what your developing is already in the neck of the woods of the PS4 and all you do is give them a bit more breathing room? Asset development and all that isn't likely to be strained by them improving projected specs. Devs have enough of a crunch and budgeting issues with launch titles. Plus everyone already knows launch titles never hold up to titles years later.

Yep, he outlines why he chose IGN and precedes to say nothing and claims he won't be back. What was the point, attention whore much?

I took it to mean the systems are close in performance since both of them had the same reactions. But I wouldn't put any stock in a random IGN board post. A wait and see approach is the best to have since the pseudo experts are all over the place.
 
That had to be a troll or an attention whoring move.

Current state of affairs:

1. if the leaks are true, there will be blood

2. if the leaks are found to be untrue, there will be blood

3. if there is secret sauce, it will likely be blood

4. if there is no info soon, there will be blood
