Engadget: Sure, it may be tough deciding whether to shell out the extra few bucks for a deluxe iTunes LP or not (okay, maybe not that tough), but it looks like that's nothing compared to what record labels are faced with.
Nvidia is allegedly testing GPU coolers to handle up to 600W for the 50 series, reigniting discussion of melting 16-pin connectors.
"They want you to believe the devs under them are super stoked to work generative AI into their processes," continued Gaider, "but I assure you what they took as excitement was really a veiled wail of despair not unlike the time that team was informed of their new 'really cool' live service mandate.".
I think anyone with some common sense knew this, im glad i don't support their games anymore, what a sh!t company.
I said this yesterday. AI isn't what we want when it comes to crafting artistry. Alas, these soulless corporate morons don't care about their work, only about cutting corners as much as possible.
Has the rapid growth of Xbox made the ship too heavy? Following the closures of Tango Gameworks, Arkane Austin, and Roundhouse, we explore what the future of Xbox could look like.
This ship was never meant to sail, this ship was made from the get go to sink as fast as possible. It almost feels that they want to lower the standards of quality in the industry so that they can fit in
I disagree, Xbox from the get go innovated and changed the industry. They did a lot of firsts and standardized a lot of others. It wasn’t till the beginning of the Xbox1 era that things started to go south.
Yep, although I’d argue it started going to shit when they tried to hock Kinect on their audience instead of continuing to invest in their studios and IPs. 2001-2010 Xbox was peak gaming, though.
@Stevonidas
I agree they never should have focused on it after the 360 era. But you do have to remember they were faked out by the huge volumes of Kinects sold. To quote info on Wikipedia, “Project Natal, It was first released on November 4, 2010, and would go on to sell eight million units in its first 60 days of availability.” So if your Xbox and see these huge sales on a peripheral where are you going to put some money? Criticism in hindsight is worthless…..if only we could all see our future. In other wards they had no way of knowing. Plus they had engagement numbers and a lot of signs pointed to people wanting it.
Their biggest mistake wasn’t the Kinect, but unlike Sony after the PS3 debacle. They didn’t double on down on exclusive good games. The other huge mistake was letting Call of Duty go to Sony.
Xbox has no soul and Phil has no confidence, and it's impossible to say either do when they killed Tango and Arkane Austin.
Everything they've said since has only made them look worse to a point that they're actually less competent than Embracer.
Whe you release something like the series S and expect it not to hurt your business model, and developers have to have parity with games. Then you know Microsoft don't care. Series s is the final nail that broke developers,
They look attractive and sexy, everybody drools over them, everybody wants them between their hands, but once you get to know them, they find out that they're crazy sons of b****** who believe themselves as a goddesses while they are in fact overrated (overpriced in this case), objects who are after nothing but... Well let's just say money in this case.
You can always just fall in love with that black-haired chick that that has a small price tag on her head and a crap load of personality.(features in this case.)
A lot of people who don't like Apple don't know anything about their OS at all. I use both Mac OS X.6 and Windows 7 everyday. I can tell you that Windows 7 has come along way and is the best Windows yet, but to say that Mac OS X is over rated is complete bull.
I've asked friends who say they have used both and they don't even know where "System Preferences" are. If you don't know where it is then you haven't used both very long.
Mac OS X comes with all the things that you need right from the get go. You don't have to go download third party software.
Like burning .ISO and .DMGs.
iTunes, Garageband, iPhoto, iWeb, iMovie HD, and iDVD
Those are very very powerful tools to do anything you want. Windows still just gives you Paint, Windows Media Player, and Windows DVD Maker. But comparing that to iLife suit is a joke.
Also Apple computers come with "Quicktime". Which gives you crazy crazy export functions of varying codecs, fame rates, and resolutions.
Also because of Core image, Core Audio, Core Video, and Core Animation it makes it way easier for developers to make really cool software really easy. If you don't know what I'm talking about you can Wikipedia it, cause I don't want to explain.
Quicklook is a crazy feature where you hit the space bar on any file and a window comes up instantly either plays the file or gives you info on it. Images, Audio, Video, PDF and a bunch more. Just Wikipedia Quicklook from Apple it's way cool.
Also one very important fact is that Networking even in Leopard was way way better than even Windows 7. SnowLeopard has decreased the time of connecting and disconnecting of servers even faster. Plus you get one click Remote access over your network. And if you paid for MoblieMe then you can extend that functionality over the internet, which is not just some bull service that works half the time, it just works.
I know a lot people want to make the argument about "there is no games for Mac". Well they fact is there is, but you can also install any Windows you want along side Mac OS X and play all your PC only games too. Which brings me to another point.
A lot of people say "you can't customize a Mac". It can be customized in the same number of ways that Window's machines can. I have a Mac Pro right now crossfired with 2 ATI cards running Windows 7, XP, and Mac OS X. Also Mac OS X can be customized easier than Windows. Since the system folders are right there in the finder for you to access at anytime. You can add and take away from any folder and make it do whatever you want. And last you can add stickers. Hell you can even take it to get laser engraved since they are all aluminum.
One last thing how many computers companies out there make there computer out of aluminum and glass. Most PC companies choose to go with plastic case and a clear plastic for the display. That is one reason they can make there computers cheaper.
The cheapest stock Mac is $599(Mac Mini) and the most expensive is $3,299(Mac Pro). But even at $3,299 to get a Windows computer than outperforms it cost way more.
Ok, I'm done.
Not fair I am using my mac right now and I love it. I go to school for film and I tell you guys that macs are for prosumers. They are good for architects, film, music, game design. Apple costs more because it gives you more quality software, style, it also has virus protection build in.
get a room, Macmos
