XBOX GAMING THREAD | PHIL TRUE 4K

[RustyShackleford]

-"Lead console" term started last generation as a way for devs to say with console the did most of their coding/test/prototyping on. The Xbox 360 was the default at the beging of the generation because of if relative ease to program but the PS3 was such a pain in the *** to deal with that the method didn't work.

Then PS3 became the lead console because as the saying goes "If you can get it running on the PS3, it will run on the 360". Since 360 was easier to deal with it was easier to optimize and that why you saw multiplats looking better. And Sony fanboys complaing first "why don't devs take the extra time to take advantage of "Da Cell"" and secondly and most hilariously complaining that devs were lazy because the 360 version looked better even though the PS3 got equal or more attention.

Sorry to my Sony brahs for the shots, E3 is coming and I'm coming into form.

-This generation the term "lead console" meaning has changed, into one of two things. Which console has the marketing deal. Or, again by mostly PS4 fans, to mean with console the game looks best on.

-Games simply aren't built on PC and down ported to consoles. The 360, PS3, and PC have separate architectures and must be optimized individually. Every game is coded on a PC because the devkits attach to PCs. Even games that never come to PC

-The Division wasn't even suppose to have a PC version, but PC fans got upset and Ubi caved. Massive might not even me coding the PC version knowing how UBi works.

Thanks rusty + repped

 

[jayfiend]

Thanks for clearing that up.

Either way the division looks like it will be good.

And I can't wait for E3

 

[deleted]

E3 is gonna be incredible all around.

There's no way Sony is gonna let MS steal the show without a fight.

I can't wait

I hope they mention some more fighting games. I wish that Mk HD remix was really coming out

 

[MajinZuub]

I think Sony has a bunch of eggs in the VR basket for e3 but that really doesnt interest me just let me play the show on a tv and I'm good with them

And halo 2 true to its roots I don't need anything else

 

[blackboyfly]

I was really looking forward to Halo 2 anniversary, then I realized 343 would be making it. Will still pick it up because I love Halo and even played 343's Halo 4 for about 6 weeks but eh, I'm not expecting anything close to the OG Halo 2 experience.

 

[shottadru]

Sunset looks like dead rising on steroids hopefully it has a solid multiplayer to give reason to come back to the game looks solid from the preview

 

[shottadru]

Was on the wall for child of light might just stick to extinction on COD with randoms. Straight agony

 

[iYen]

Now this vid seriously sold me on the game

Looks as good as infamous or better.

Fingers crossed.

They just have to not add anything. They did it with CE Anniversary so I have a bit of faith

as good in terms of how fluid the gameplay is.

better than in terms of the variety of ways you can kill enemies.

in second son, after you've blown up your 1st dup truck, you've blown them all up.

Same goes for all the other side missions, mini-bosses, etc.

I forgot to mention the powers.

I only found the 2nd and 3rd powers worth upgrading.

1st and 4th powers were a waste.

Just recently bought the X1, can anyone explain to me how xbox music works? And is it worth paying for?

its like spotify. You get a trial month free. So you can download it and see if you like it. It's 9.99 /month after that

 

[theone218]

^ do you think its worth it? Can I live without it?

 

[deleted]

I don't think any subscription music service is worth it.

 

[blakep267]

^ do you think its worth it? Can I live without it?

just try it out for the month..its free. you can delete it wright away if u hate it

 

[noblekane]

Nothing beats free spotify compared to other free music apps

A similar E3 prediction list popped up on the PS4 thread. @Jetpacunlimited came in and shredded it, saying it was fake, and that there was also a X1 list that was fake floating around.

Is that one, or is this legit?
