OXCGN sees huge potential in the new ZUNE HD and looks at what this portable entertainment device will be able to do:
"The ZuneHD is Microsoft's next dip into entertainment devices, but here at OXCGN what excited us most is the potential for gaming on the stunning little handheld.
So far it's been confirmed that the Zune Marketplace will actually be replacing the Video Marketplace on Xbox Live. This is a bold step, linking the Zune HD and Xbox 360 in an almost symbiotic relationship. This is very similar to the steps Sony took to link the launch of Blu-Ray and the PS3 to push ahead the success of both."
From school politics to ping-pong, pistols to police procedurals, let’s dive into the best that Rockstar has to offer.
Saif from eXputer inquires, "Despite the everlasting popularity of the genre, why hasn't there been a good AAA horror game in a while now?"
Even when they do it's first person trying to copy Outlast, Five Nights, P.T etc
I think the Dead Space / RE2 / RE4 Remake and the Evil Within 2 showed you can have a good story based, third person survival horror game.
Yet another leak for the ASUS ROG Ally X points towards as much as 8 hours of battery, but how does that compare to the competition?
Honestly, I really like this updated version. But it doesn't solve the biggest flaw that the original had for me: the Z1 Extreme APU. Yes, it's an extremely powerful part, but it is not part of AMD's Adrenalin driver update program, so it's dependent on Asus for driver updates. And unfortunately, Asus doesn't have a stellar record of support for their devices.
Up to 8 hours basically just means the least demanding games. AAA gaming at highest wattage would probably be about 2-3 hours which is good compared to just about 1 hour with the current ally. The OLED Deck can do about 2-3hrs.
Nope. The only improvements I want to hear is better customer support. Otherwise, I can't be bothered.
If I can earn achievements on my Zune and download music and video on my Xbox360 and use and transfer it across both platforms I'm definitely buying this.
Castle Crashers on Zune HD ftw!
Looks damn sexy to. :D
If they can do the rumoured XBLA games on it, that would be amazing to take Arcade games with you.
Hopefully MS will show more at E3.
Wow is this more powerful than the PSP for gaming? And we can watch movies on our tv streamed from it?
I'm not sure what all that tech stuff means but this analysis really makes it sound very very promising. I wasn't excited by Zune before, but if there are great games for it, we can play XBLA games on it, and do all that other stuff described it will be better than the iTouch.
Will it reach the potential though?
And I wonder what price it will be...
Man this could be REALLY cool. Unlock Achievements and play co-op on Zune HD??
I just bought my Ipod touch and it feels restricted/dated already when reading this.
