Xbox 720 Is Super Powerful, Contains 16-Core CPU

oooooohhh, no you didn't... haha I'll keep myself out of it this time.

As was already discussed in a previous thread, there is no way that MS would be stupid enough to push a download-only model for their software. With ISP monthly download caps and a large portion of retail customers still preferring to purchase phyical media, it would be a very huge gamble on their part. A portion of gamers will not care or be affected and will gladly adhere to such a model, but they are the minority.

Do you not think MS is big enough it could tell AT&T and TimeWarner to "Fark Off" with their datacaps?

Or more likely...a download from MS is like an 'in network" call and no data is charged! Free Mobile to Mobile didn't always exist. OOOOO, you could probably even get them to sign some sort of a deal where if you have GOLD that you don't have the 'hypothetical' data limit when you are getting something from a MS IP!

Microsoft has done such a great job telling AT&T and Verizon to "Fark off" with how they are handling the updates for the WP platform.

also think about it, do you want to wait a day to d/l a game, or just go and buy the game at release date?

Have the same issue on the glorious PC currently...just DL ahead of time.

But, if you took off the speed limits that the ISPs artificially place on you because of some sort of corporate partnership...things could really change too.

but anyway, we have gone through this before...because I mentioned taking a special USB stick with you to the store and they load it on there and than GF said he hadn't heard of that and I showed the old 360 photo...

I'm hoping graphics will look just as good in this cryengine 3 demo.

I wouldn't be against it, but I would happily trade current-gen graphics for AI that isn't brick stupid.

Yep AI over graphics. It's a lot easier to make eye candy, but without any substance it is still a crappy game. That I'd why online play is so big.

Wii u is already dead without any outside help. Did you see the controller?




The idiotic thing has a screen and probably the least ergonomic design ever seen, and no 2 player with the standard controller. So you can use a Wii U flat tablet with tiny sticks on it, or a 3DS, or Wii controllers.

Good luck getting anybody to bother making any games for that mess of varied input problems.

Who is even going to look from the screen, to the controller, and back to the screen?
*Maybe* for a two player game to select secret options you don't want the other person to see in a turn based game, but they wont make any 2 player games for that controller anyway. *boggle*

What can Microsoft or Sony do about AI? I always thought that had more to do with the game developers.
