There's probably board members of billion game companies who probably can't tell the difference. In America, both Sega and Nintendo had people join their ranks who knew nothing about video games. If you think about it, there really hasn't been a ton of fascinating stories for history books. The best stories come from the experience you get while playing the game.

what an idiot

 

[TriSuit666]

Never heard of this wanker, but I'm already blocked by him.

It's 2020, dammit - who uses a blocklist - I can't even.

 

[teezzy]

It's not complicated. People are fucking dumb.

It's Xbox One and Xbox Series and there's an S and an X version of each.

Did these fuckers drop out of community college or what?

 

[jonnyp]

He's terrible at his job, not surprising considering what his job is but whoever is responsible for coming up with names for MS' consoles should be keelhauled.

 

[iamvin22]

you might have just lost your job buddy

 

[GHG]

Gotta love the smell of a twitter meltdown first thing in the morning.

 

[THEAP99]

Not many people know about the Xbox one x anyways so I'm not surprised as the awful branding doesn't make it any easier

 

[VAVA Mk2]

Someone needs to make him into a meme...

 

[KiNeMz]

To be fair he is from Queensland. They don't do education there

Oh really? He is Aussie.

I feel so ashamed of my people right now.

 

[DrScissorsMD]

- massive idiot
- Queenslander
Checks out.

 

[SF Kosmo]

It IS a very confusing sentence. It reads like a word puzzle.

It's almost deliberately poorly written.

He/Him

 

[thicc_girls_are_teh_best]

Ah, he's one of those bountiful tardcum clowns with a punchable face. They're quite common in the Twittersphere biome

He/Him

The tardcum clown genus is also known for producing bountiful amounts of soy milk.

A real brilliant analyst here...

No thank you soy cuck

 

[reinking]

If Sony really launches the PS5 at $449 neither will anyone else...


..Bazinga.

 

[semicool]

It comes across to me that he does know what a 1x is ......he's just trolling like a troll.

 

[Hendrick's]

How the fuck is that even a job?

 

[lock2k]

How the fuck is that even a job?

Must be made up like his pronouns.

I want to be an anti SJW, where do I sign up for that?

 

[hangdang69]

social media is cancer and here is more proof

 

[Jerm411]

This guy is the living embodiment of this gif....

 

[eot]

He should know but honestly the naming is so fucking bad, lots of people are going to be confused

 

[pasterpl]

Obvious twitter troll

 

[shaddam]

Pronouns in the bio = Can safely ignore everything about them

Nah I have pronouns in my bio too. In my mother language which dont make difference between he and she. Some people get it, but it mostly triggers feminazis and they block me

 

[UnNamed]

When you use your time to better define your pronouns instead of improving your actual skills.

 

[CouzinD]

To be fair, I don't even know what the Xbox One X is and I own one.

 

[Jon Neu]

Face is the mirror of the soul.

 

[Spukc]

stop fucking around on twitter
just uninstall that sheit and move on

 

[royox]

Let's be fair, the guy's and idiot but I'm also super confused about the Xbox Stuff....for what I am reading the Series S is the "low specs" of the NEXT GEN but SOMEHOW it's less powerfull than the Xbox One X that is current generation with PS4 pro....I don't understand.

 

[deriks]

How can this guy be so bad at his work?
*see pronouns *
Oh

 

[zombrex]

I'm really not surprised this is Australia.
Being woke is practically the first selection criteria for Universities and government jobs in this country.

 

[Ailynn]

This is a troll account...right?

I ask because I have a 5-year-old nephew who's never played on an XBox, and even he knows what an XBox Series X is...

Basically you buy a game for the Xbox
If you have an Xbox One X, it sometimes got enhancements for that SKU (res/textures/frames etc)

This was at developers discretion. And targeted the specific hardware and version of the X1X
The new Xbox is not an Xbox One X so it won't download and install the feature pack
This has nothing to do with power, in fact it sounds like a rudimentary wmi/hardware filter or check
All this shouldn't matter to the user because of smart delivery anyway. This ensures the best version of the game for your harware downloads to the device.
Microsofts strategy was never about legacy modes, it was about scaling the software natively. So these xbox games will play on the XSX and use the power on the table to upscale and increase fps by default. The only thing it can't replace will be any texture packs included as part of the X1X enhancement. I don't own an xbox so can't say how many games that would affect.


Sony have somewhat mitigated this with the legacy modes, so any enhancements for the PS4 Pro will run in a sandbox. This remains to be seen how well it works ultimately. But it means the game will onyl run as it did on the Pro, so it can't leverage the power on the table to have a 'boosted' PS4 Pro legacy mode (as I understand it, correct me if I'm wrong someone)

Just throw out all logic and hate on anyone you disagree with by calling them dumb while not understanding what they are saying, while additionaly making yourself look dumb in the process.

 

[Hudo]

Dude must have serious anxiety attacks when going to a car dealership then.

 

[LarknThe4th]

He is joking right?......

 

[GymWolf]

He\him sound like an idiot.

 

[John Day]

I thought at first that he was joking on the naming of these products. Then I realized "nah, dude's just an idiot".

Someone mentioned it earlier, pronouns in bio=DANGER ALERT

 

[CeeJay]

There are 4 main Xbox Ones (Xbox One, Xbox One S, SAD and Xbox One X) and 2 Xbox Series (XSS an XSX) models to follow, how hard can that be WHEN IT'S YOUR JOB?

If you look at virtually any other type of product, the manufacturers have way way more different product lines on the market at the same time. Cars, TVs, phones, computers, trainers, even fucking toothpaste! If your job is to research something and you can't even Google it to find out what it is it then you are definitely in the wrong job. Just think though, people are going to take this guy's research seriously and make decisions off it!

 

[LokusAbriss]

Dude must have serious anxiety attacks when going to a car dealership then.

Or buying a new phone. So many numbers and letters.

 

[lock2k]

I'm going to put my pronouns in my social media profiles as

 

[Irobot82]

The guy has pronouns in his bio. Makes sense.

 

[semicool]

Just throw out all logic and hate on anyone you disagree with by calling them dumb while not understanding what they are saying, while additionaly making yourself look dumb in the process.

Sure! Your statement here is full of "logic" and "truth"!

 

[Kenpachii]

The guy has pronouns in his bio. Makes sense.

In before everybody that disagree's with him is alt right.

 

[30yearsofhurt]

 

[Irobot82]

In before everybody that disagree's with him is alt right.

I don't even bother anymore. Doesn't matter what subject, when I see pronouns I just stop paying attention because there is always a bias and an agenda. It's not worth it.
