 "When you look at the console space, I believe we will see more hardware innovation in the console space than we've ever seen. You'll actually see us come out with new hardware capability during a generation allowing the same games to run backward and forward compatible because we have a Universal Windows Application running on top of the Universal Windows Platform that allows us to focus more and more on hardware innovation without invalidating the games that run on that platform."

"We can effectively feel a little bit more like we see on PC, where I can still go back and run my old Doom and Quake games that I used to play years ago but I can still see the best 4K games come out and my library is always with me. Hardware innovation continues while the software innovation is able to take advantage and I don't have to jump a generation and lose everything that I played on before."

"We look at these other ecosystems out there like mobile, tablet and PC and we see that they have a very continuous evolution cycle in hardware, whereas between console generations most of the evolution is making it cheaper and potentially making it smaller.

Both are meaningful but don't make the games play any better. If you look at PC specifically and see the evolution that happens there, there's no reason why console can't ride that same curve.

I look at the ecosystem that a console sits in and I think that it should have the capability of more iteration on hardware capability. Sony is doing this with VR and adding VR capabilities mid-cycle to the PlayStation 4 and they are doing that by adding another box. I don't mean that as a negative. But it's not changing what the core console is about.

For consoles in general it's more important now than it's ever been, because you have so many of these other platforms that are around. It used to be that when you bought your console you were way ahead of the price performance curve by so much, relative to a PC. But now PCs are inexpensive and your phones are getting more and more capable.

I still think a console is the best price to performance deal that is out there but when you look at the evolution ... I'm not going to announce our road map for hardware ... but what I wanted to say on stage for people when they see this vision of ours and question our commitment to console I want to make sure that people see that what we are doing enables us to be more committed to what consoles are about than we've ever been and innovate more consistently than we ever have. That's the key for me."

They are partnered with oculus though. And also the Xbox one controller is pretty much the new de facto PC controller

[spizike231]

HOW IS IT THAT @Antidope DOESN'T POST IN HERE ANYMORE AND DUDES STILL TRYNA SEE HIM

I was just about to post about that

he wont be able to sprint away doe :x

I'm reading back over the posts from yesterday and I came across this

How did I miss this?!

 

[shottadru]

I caught it lmao, yesterday was one big lulz, but I couldn't take anymore after the Popeyes receipt

 

[stick]

Next time Popeyes (or any fast food joint) tells you to pay for some sauce, ask them for a receipt .

Obviously, otherwise Oculus wouldn't be able to bundle the controller. My point is, if Microsoft thinks VR is going to be profitable. It would make sense to make it more widely available to the mainstream through xbox upgrades. You can easily play non VR games on high settings on PC without the specs needed for the OR. So it doesnt seem feasible to talk upgrades for non VR games for years to come.

Phil was in charge of first party studios before becoming the head. He wasn't the platform engineer.

You can put the lack of games in the latter years of the 360's life on him but not the Xbox console. That was Mattrick mainly

According to EA, Titanfall 2 and Battlefield will release this year before Christmas.

Titanfall 1 was solid, just lacked variety. If they can deliver more gametypes and maps on launch, they could have a hit

Isn't the next Battlefield set in WW1 (I HOPE SO) - http://www.forbes.com/sites/davidth...t-in-world-war-1-weirdly-enough/#225cda036a6c

 

[Ricky D]

I don't have any hopes for TF2 but I wouldn't mind a WWI or WWII BF game. I hope there's more destruction and it works at launch. I got my shooter for the year now unless IW remasters COD4 or MW2
