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,
This gives a good take at what's really going on in the USA. It's better checking these numbers than the rants of Amazon sales ranks. Though the amazon sales ranks tend to mirror these trends, they are not accurate since they don't incorporate sales from other outlets.
What's interesting about these numbers this week is that it's before the Transformers week which ran concurrently with the BDs "Buy one, get one free" offer.
Also it show just how weak HD-DVD would be without the para/dream buy out.
Expect the numbers to be more in BD's favor next week. I predict roughly 76:24 OR better.
Bubbles will be appreciated!
boy ran out and picked up
transformers hd-dvd
and try 2 play it ps3 and 360
i told him he had 2 buy a
hd-dvd player he took the
back 2 the store and told them
it dont work
BlueRay is the winner no matter what anyone says these sales prove it more and more each week.
Isn't approving the story. How funny. It's not like these types of stories aren't posted all the time. Fact of the matter is that the HD war does in some way affect all of us gamers. Especially the ones who bought a PS3 or the HD-DVD add on. BD is dominating in sales of software. This Christmas is going to be a landslide in BD's favor.
