Isnt the problem that they never described what it was.

Or is he trying the double negative, saying that 10 people could share the full game but lying Smile

I think they need to fire their current crop of top executives and start a fresh or every time that Don says something it will be questioned by the masses on the internet.
My prediction would be that Don is gone by February 2014 and Major Neilson with him.

and yet you all fall over for the oldest trick in the marketing Pr book , called Bread

tomorrow bread will cost 200% more

we will fight for it

scream about it

blame economy
blame farmers
blame flour price

strikes will rise

talks will begin

all will be angry
after tough negotiations
and
petitions
and
screams
and
farmer strike

they win
we fall

price of bread now only 75% more

people rejoice
say theirs vote counted
they crumbled the rule of moneymakers

the only thing is we wanted to rise it only 75% ...
that 125% was only a padding to make them feel they won
but they didn't
we still go what we wanted ...

Free PR
world wide PR
oh and don't forget the stamp that we listen to people now

that's a little misleading. Its going to support all of their cloud services which means only a fraction of that cost is carried over to xbox live. Things like hotmail, azure, skype, office 365, bing, the list goes on.

Respawn explains the "cloud"

Main take-aways.

-costs developers money
-is being used for xbone/360/pc and was vaguely mentioned can be used for other platforms which means it may be used for ps4

http://www.respawn.com/news/lets-talk-about-the-xbox-live-cloud/

Can't see microsoft saying no to ps4 devs if they want to pay microsoft for the service, it may be more flexible to xboners and possibly cheaper/subsidized due to xbox live subscriptions. Another thing to note is no way in hell a single player game will use cloud processing when it costs money and it has to process identical information over and over for each single player experience.

What cloud probably means, and this would be good, is custom hosted servers. Who knows ...

Sorry, but he is full of shit, the Xbox One does exist, how else are they going to test for hardware failures and quality controls? Some weeks before sales start? His arguments collapse on themselves.

Also, devkits, while they may be somewhat different, they are, at the basics, the same thing, of course, root access is included and so are tools which would not work on retail units, but that's merely a software and minor hardware issue which does not affect in either way performance.

Also, he does youtube videos, what the fuck does he know? Last I heard, he was only getting review SOFTWARE, not hardware, why is he defending Microsoft when clearly they do not deserve it?

Haha, yeah, it took them years to lower the rate of RRoD's. PS3, on the other hand...that extra year before it was launched has a lot to do with hardware failure improvement.

Don't care what TotalPompous has to say. Never understood why so many people care about this wanker.

Just another Youtube "personality", they're a dime a dozen.


"I think Call of Duty resonates because it's believable and relatable," Sledgehammer Games cofounder Michael Condrey says.

Believable and relatable...Yep, sounds like Call of Duty

Interesting article at Gamasutra
The Economics of Used Games

http://gamasutra.com/blogs/JoshKanownik/20130624/194872/The_Economics_of_Used_Games.php

What makes it interesting is that is that some models are used to see how the market would possibly react and the fact that the guy writing it works for Activision and comes from an analytical background.

This is one of my dreams though ..

Quote:
“The cloud is a really important part of it,” he reassured. “Xbox One is going to be the best place to play games and a big reason for that is that games come alive because of the cloud. So, the game that you get on that first day is going to change. It’s going to be a different game. It’s going to evolve, have living worlds, worlds that change, worlds that persist. What we’re doing is we’re giving developers a palette so they can create games they wouldn’t be able to create anywhere else.”

hmm this seems very familiar... where did i have this "experience" before... oh right from my WoW days almost a decade ago, and every other MMO out there for that matter.

MS acts like they invented MMO or something Laughing
