no im not going 4K until end of next year waiting on all the new tech to release then get a new PC. Im getting Act of Aggression next month not bothering with MGS, then ill see whats good or not later on

“XB1 was built with cloud in mind”. True, and here’s a bit of insight into the GPU Move Engines for just that purpose;

“The canonical use of the Lz decoder is decompression (or transcoding) of data loaded from OFF-CHIP from, for instance, the hard drive or the NETWORK. The canonical use for the LZ encoder is compression of data destined for OFF-CHIP” also.

In any case I’m good, all I got is time, will be waitin for next summer. In the meantime, well dam if I aint gonna be busy on my Xbox till then. U got a 4K gpu card? I wanna see Star Wars running 4K 60fps, would take a crazy PC to do it tho. What’re u gettin this fall? I’m still on Witcher, bout to cop MGS, then Halo, TR, and COD and I’m good till next yr. Forgot Fallout, that’s too many dam games, too many rpgs sucking up my time. Love Witcher tho

“anyone with an X1 is right in the center of it.”

I think you are right. MSFT spend tons on R&D and built the XB1 to be 100% dynamic via XBLC. It’s not just software solutions but hardware as well. XB1 was built with cloud in mind. And we havent even touched Tile Resources yet. So much tools for devs to take advantage of. Every base is covered that caters to better smarter and newer forms of game development. The good news is that everyone (PC PS4 NX) can benefit from all this. I cant see why not.

No but sony sure has aloit of paid trolls seeking out Xbox articles to damage control and AstroTurf for them. you people are obvious. go die in a fire already,.

Hahaha yeah will be funny to see how much of a clue… They havnt got!

Funny thing is Sony fanboys laugh at backwards compatibility yet praise psnow for charging them. But in general yeah I don’t think people are really going care about psnow.

I don’t think they can even repurpose the servers because of how the set up

Yeah I hear u. They took a shot with Gaikai, and I think that thing is failing, nobody’s gonna pay 20 bucks a month for old games man. Once Microsoft, Square, OTOY and others get to release dates, I’m willing to pay for whatever I can to experience this stuff. Sony’s gonna be heavily dependant on 3rd parties tho. I want one of these media sites to ask Cerny and Yoshida about Crackdown tech…

Yeah my thoughts too. “Game assisted cloud” will be the next great thing in gaming, after broadband online connectivity, and that after 2D to 3D games. And anyone with an X1 is right in the center of it.

Thanks for that link. Good read for the fact that they claim to be using the cloud a whole different way. Which leads me your comment, ” “I doubt Sony would really jump in,”

I’ll share my opinion on that, but understand it’s not based on fact. I think Sony will be in a position where they will be dependent on 3rd party to solve future cloud compute problems. Good example would be that article you just shared. Sony’s problem in this whole mess was that they weren’t really thinking ahead. Even if they did they didnt have enough money to R&D ingenious ways to use cloud. I remember when Yoshida bluntly said that they have already explained how PS4 will use the cloud (think Onlive), and how MSFT used the cloud was CONFUSING, so he couldn’t understand what MSFT was talking about. Add what Cerny said, “using cloud that way wont work” and you get a clear picture that Sony wasn’t even contemplating to use cloud like how Crackdown use it.

But I think they are other solutions that the PS4 will be able to use like Square Enix’s solution. Also Intel have one too and it’s about RayTracing via cloud. Dont know enough about that though.

The MP part of the game? It took an additional 13 servers to handle that. So you’re saying that PC config you wrote up will compete with 13 servers? Well the devs said no.
