Yes, to be honest, fluidity and sharp graphics makes a game more fun to play, that is of course if the game was fun to begin with.

Well that's what I think they should focus on, games that are fun to begin with. Most of the time, people talking about how good their game looks and quality of fidelity of visuals.

Pretty is better than ugly and smoother is better than laggy and if you don't understand the other stuff start googling

I'm not going to say that a good looking game won't appeal to people, it will draw interest and attention. But it won't make them stay if it's boring to play or they can't even finish it. Wasn't trying to say that it is bad to have improved the performance or visuals, just it seems more of a priority than advertising a fun game everyone will want to buy for their brand new system.

There has to be a catch. This can't be priced at $400, this just can't. Seriously though, the console will either be the best ever or one of the worst.

Variable Rate Shading (VRS): Our patented form of VRS empowers ...

Never change Micro$oft...

... Just kidding, please change you greedy fucks. It's not clear exactly what they mean by "VRS" from that description (it vaguely sounds like what some implementations of foveated rendering in VR do), but technology patents are all evil anti-competitive and anti-consumer bullshit.

I'm guessing you forgot that Microsoft has been in the VR market for quite some time now and adapted that technology to a non vr method. It's something i have been hoping for since it was first announced in the VR space that it would also come to non VR games. Microsoft being in the VR space themselves thankfully also saw the potential of that technique for non vr games wich i hoped someone would do so it could be implement by more if someone just started doing so. Why are you fucking complaining, this is a blessing because it's a damn fucking good technique that shouldn't be only used in VR games

It wouldn't be bad if it also had a SATA port or M.2 port on the board somewhere

The mystery "diagnostic port" seen on the back of a dev kit is supposedly for external storage.

Sadly Nvidia is destroying PC gaming by their increased pricing on gpu's. PC gaming was taking over on the high end but high end pc gaming has become for most something they can't spend large amounts of money for so I do see Console gaming coming back if they maintain that 500 euro price range. Building a pc with what Microsof is offering now costs around 1500 Euro if you count an entire new built without using old parts and if they and Sony do decide to price it around 500 euro/ dollars we may see a shift happening again from PC gaming to Console gaming. It's all your fault Nvidia, with that price increase you've shot yourself in the foot once again. Heavy pc gamer myself but i can admit as a pc gamer thanks to nvidia it will start shifting back again to consoles. Yeah Nvidia has made tons of money with that price hike but future wise it will make them loose even more because of the shift back to console gaming. The reason Nvidia was making more bucks every single year was because PC gaming was becoming more popular by the day and now it will decrease again so in the end they'll loose more than what they earned by making that decision

Because NVIDIA is the only graphics provider also, over priced? Yeah, maybe for their top end hardware. Just because the 1660 to the the midrange 2060 are cheap does not mean they’re bad cards to use. If you actually understood how powerful the 2080/2080 super,2080Ti, and RTX titan cards are, you wouldn’t be blaming them for anything. The only reason amd is cheap is because they use silicon that is lesser quality than what NVIDIA purchases.

what are you talking about, i have been buying a new TI card since the 700 series and still do. You're talking like a serious fanboy over here. They've shot themselves in the foot massively by that price hike especially now with consoles going the high end route for a really low price all in. How can you justify that price hike as a pc gamer for that marginal increase in performance. I really doubt you're a pc gamer since the perfomance increase was always WAAAAAAAAY above what the 2080 ti has given us with no price hiking at all. It even went down instead of up. We got a major price increase with less performance increase. Let me say it again. a bigger performance increase every generation to the 2080ti over the 1080ti and even a price drop to half the performance increase for double the price. How the hell as a pc gamer can you justify that seeing PC gaming was on a roll and now has been declining again because of Nvidia. How the hell can you even justify Nvidia destroying that increase and making it decrease again. I doubt you're a pc gamer at all. You're trying to use fancy wording like silicone. Silicone is a lottery and if you were a true pc gamer you would know that. There is no such thing as perfect silicone performance on every chip. You don't know what ur talking about like what ? Better silicon to amd ? Do you even know what silicon on a chip means ? Why do you think the term silicon lottery ? It's just some made up term, jezus learn your tech before spouting nonsense like all chips have hit the silicon lottery because ey nvidia made them

1. I agree that the gameplay matters a lot.
2. I don't agree that only the gameplay matters, IMHO sound track, atmosphere and writing matter a lot; many times I've said it many times, a sound track can make or break a game.
3. Fluidity and sharpness are part of the gameplay, the gameplay is not the same if controls are laggy and the game runs at low or inconsistent FPS, gameplay is not the same if the game lacks so much detail that you can't tell apart different objects that affect the gameplay.

That's nice, but what about the consumer model?

orangy57 · Feb 24, 2020

I'm really hoping there will be a homebrew scene for this thing. Could you imagine running Linux on this? Hot damn. The normal Xbox One would've even been cool if MS allowed regular Windows to run on it, but nope, they have to lock out their normal 64 bit cpus from running a regular 64 bit OS.

osaka35 · Feb 24, 2020

Sounds fun. With that AMD goodness, should be fun. I'm also worried about the boot drive, but we'll see. As long as it has kodi and the same support as xbox 1 does for everything, seems like a natural upgrade.

Pluupy · Feb 24, 2020

I wish Microsoft would stop making stupid Xboxs and just focus on making Windows a better gaming platform.

The unique experience of the Wii sold it. Exclusives really don't matter to most people. Xbox Live is so much better than any other similar offering and has been for a long time. People forget that the 360 outsold the PS3 outside of Japan. There's a lot of considerations that go into a console purchase. For me personally it really comes down to: Is it from Sony? If so, then no thanks.

Except that's not what sold the Wii, if it were, the crappy motion control would be more common this gen. Exclusives are what sold the Wii. Exclusives are the only thing that moves Nintendo hardware other than their portables. Nintendo hasn't had a console worth buying non-exclusive games for since the GameCube. If a person had a Wii & PS3/360, they were buying AAA non-exclusive games for the PS3/360 not the Wii. Same can be said about the Wii U. Face the facts, software moves hardware, hardware doesn't move software. Microsoft doesn't have the software to move the hardware. Why buy an Xbox when it's literally nothing more than a limited PC that you can not upgrade & it has no exclusive content. Next gen Xbox online community for multiplayer games is going to be small compared to Sony.

You've obviously never had to deal with software patents before. They stifle innovation and foster monopolies. Consumers have less choice, have to pay more money, and technology companies/developers can't create new technologies because a patent is there holding them back. Once a company owns a patent over a technology, they have no incentive to improve it because they have no competitors.

I want the new xbox to be successful so Sony will work harder to kick its ass with ps5, it's a win win situation.
