I dont understand the love sony is getting right now. They didnt really show anything at all, except for a sheet with specs. Say what you will about MS but at least they gave the people somthing to complain about. Sony is a mystery right now

Sony stated their specs and MS did not.

MS showed a 1980's VCR and did not mention anything specific about the tech other than transistors.

The only tech stuff they were focusing on was the useless Kinect. Kinect has not proven to enhance gameplay at all. That is for the TV and Media stuff which is what they focused on in the reveal.

In short:

Tech Specs>Kinect specs and NFL contract
 
I tried looking up esram and what this rumor means. I saw this on another forum:

". Under clocking the system will widen the gap between the two consoles, but at the same time will keep the failure rate on the Xbox One very low. The last thing we need is another RRoD fiasco. In terms of games, you will see a significant difference in multiplatform titles. Lower clock speed means lower frame rates. This means that a game running 60fps on PS4 may only run at 30fps on Xbox One."

Does this sound accurate?
 
what's the mystery?  18 compute units clocked at 800mhz for 1.84 teraflops

you couldnt even get that from MS and their "finished" box but somehow 5 billion transistors was worth mentioning

why game videos?  why no live games?  i guess live games would have gone against the whole "fake demonstration" motto

plenty of "mystery" to go around if you ask me

You're forgetting, the whole Tretton- Killzone demo fiasco

Sony has done the same damn thing in the past, but I all thing anti Sony gets scratch from your memory.

The PS3's launch was a much bigger cluster**** that this so far

Microsoft screwed themselves putting eSRAM in the One . Should've just went with 10GB or 8GB DDR4 if the OS was gonna be so bloated . I don't see them failing the yields as serious as most of you do the same thing happened to the PS3 before it launched . The PS4 was gonna have better looking multiplatform games anyway this gen ala 360 the last generation but it didn't stop PS3 from catching up at the end of the consoles cycle. I just feel like using eSRAM is a huge mistake considering how developer friendly the PS4 is going to be. Devs are not gonna be looking forward to coding on a weaker and more difficult platform . Just don't understand why Microsoft would go that route

Does anyone know if this is true? 
 
Nope, all the exclusives are Xbox One only, and being published by MS themselves.

So one of those games are part of the count.

I highly doubt that's the case. Look at this and last gen. Microsoft released multiple games that were available on Xbox and PC that they called "exclusives" (rightfully so), Halo, Bioshock, Mass Effect, Gears, Left For Dead etc. If they came out and said directly that those 15 exclusives would only be available on X1 and not 360 or PC then I'd agree with you. But looking at Microsofts past history there is no reason to believe that's the case other than wishful thinking, in my opinion.

It is true but honestly even if they didn't under clock the GPU this probably still would've been the case considering the PS4 already had a significant clock speed advantage with its GPU and of course a significant RAM advantage.

That sucks. Reminds me of when Madden 08 came out and was only 30fps. It was terrible. That was the first game I ever traded in within 2 weeks.

Phil Spencer the head of Microsoft Studios said it on twitter when asked. The 15 exlcusives he mentioned are all being published my MS and are only for the XBone.

Ok, that's good to hear. I still have my doubts though, at least until MS says explicitly they aren't coming to 360 and PC. Especially considering Phil Spencer is one of the main MS heads causing the confusion out there regarding DRM and etc :{. Hoping for you to be right tho. Don't think I'll ever want to touch my 360 again once I get a X1 so I don't want them wasting resources on 360.

no, im actually well aware of what hapened to sony in 2005 and so are they, which is why they played killzone live to leave no doubters

but the difference is that sony didnt have somebody on stage pretending to play killzone and motorstorm in 2005

it all good bruh, we're just having fun with one another
 
I know I am not the only trophy hunter on NT, and I imagine our counterparts for achievements are on NT as well. I dont necessarily want to see alot of these implemented, but I am happy to see Microsoft trying to change it up a bit. Sony will no doubt be watching closely, as the whole trophy system was a response to the hugely successful achievement list.


X1 Achievements

Potential changes with the Xbox One Achievements system

Microsoft is talking up a whole new ball game in terms of Achievements for the Xbox One, so far telling us that:

The new Achievements system has richer detail and spans across your games and experiences (Achievements are no longer confined to single games).
You will be able to earn Achievements in more ways, as new Achievements can be added dynamically any time.
A new official Achievements portal will track how you earned your Achievements (obviously in addition to what you have earned).

We’re guessing that there will be a whole lot more to the new system as well, some of which might include the following:

Day One Achievements: if you play the game on the day it is released, then you get the Achievement. At the end of that day though, it can no longer be earned.

Veteran Achievements: these could span across game series (like Call of Duty) or across a specific publisher’s titles. So if you beat both Assassin’s Creed 4 and Watch Dogs, you get a non-game-specific Achievement from Ubisoft, or if you beat Black Ops 2 and then beat Call of Duty: Ghosts, you get a general Call of Duty Achievement.

Event Achievements: these can be used to celebrate or publicize different events or days of the year. For example, playing a game at midnight on New Year Eve might get you an Achievement (don’t think you actually want that one though lol), as might playing something on your birthday.

Sponsored Achievements: these might run for a set period of time, say one week, during which if you complete certain acts in a game (that might be aligned to the adverisers brand/marketing strategy) you’ll unlock Achievements that are named after or related to their products or services. Think Red Bull sponsoring a “four hour game session” achievement or similar.

TV Achievements: How about 100 points for every 100 hours of TV watched on X1 (suggested firmly tongue in cheek)?

In any event it’s clear that the world of Achievements on the X1 is set to get a shakeup and there will be more ways than ever to increase your Gamerscore. What ideas do you have?

Just me brah if the MS trainwreck continues comes this fall I'll walk into Best Buy, kneel before the PS4 display, and with

tears in my eyes, and my voice breaking, I'll declare it my new master.

Word to Anakin Skywalker turning to the dark side. :lol
