It’s not typhoon studios like everyone was thinking. Even the director of the game they're developing begged to be bought by microsoft on twitter, yeah publicly. But he may have been playing around with the rumors. Who knows. So who the fuck is it? Io interactive? Io is one of Jupiter’s moons
No. All the people on that team live seperately, far from each other and on an interview, they said they wanna be known as one of the best developers in the industry so they dont want to work exclusively for microsoft
So is it official it will have full BC with all xbox, xbox 360, and xbox one titles?
I want my fucking dirt 2 in 4k ya whores

not they didn't

I'm not saying what I'm thinking about these games, I'm saying how most people rated them.
Julian Evans
even if they sell it for $499 that's almost $1k in hardware and the xbone gen has been a complete wash, there's no way they'd do this, they'd much rather move towards being a service only system and provide the backend for systems like the switch and PC possibly Sony and ditch the console market entirely.

>mfw Microsoft's 'exclusives' have been reduced to poor and or mediocre games that reviewers give a pass because you can play them on Game Pass for cheap
okay, but what would actually sell you on an xbox console? PCs are always two steps ahead power-wise, so it's going to need good games. Playing an FPS with a controller is atrocious, so they need solid action games, rpgs, or platformers.none of which are their strong suit. are they really just going to try to sell it as "hey, it's uh....almost a midrange pc. please buy it."
No, Moon Studios head already said they aren't going to sell
Sebastian Diaz
You can make the beefiest xbox of all time and it will still flop. Get it through your thick skulls already fanboys and shills, what the xbox needs more than ever is EXCLUSIVE, ONLY ON, XBOX, GAMES.

nvme is great for on hardware power read/write but unless the thing is unpacking 100gb compressed files in real time it's kind of a gimmick, but doing that constantly will kill it's lifespan dramatically.

Serious question from a PS4/Switch owner here.
What motivates people to be Xbox fans? Because I get shit on whenever I try to dare ask, what incentive anyone would have to buy-- or even faintly care about-- a followup to the Xbone. What even was this last gen? They released almost nothing, canceled all their most promising projects, consumed a couple studios, and released an exorbitantly expensive "mid-gen" upgrade console WITHOUT ANYTHING TO FLEX ITS FANCY SPECS! So what, this one will be BETTER than the Xbone X, which just came out less than 2 years ago?? Is no one else just confused as hell about why you would buy another Xbox??
Your console has gotten more backwards compatibility releases than actual original new games for several years straight, two of your console's current "must-haves" are a collection of old Halo and Forza. With a collection of old Rare!! Which isn't even stuff made at Microsoft!!
I had a 1060 6gb and other than a little stutter in cutscenes it was fine And the obligatory fullscreen not being the res you want it to be that iirc they still havent fixed

Robert Wood
GHz don't mean shit for a gpu ,tflops are more representative of the performance

I just don't see the motive to buy it. MS has not shown at all that they can keep up in this industry.

Consoles are continuing to become more and more like PC's. A game working with Xbone and Nextbox and NextNextbox doesn't mean it'll be held back though. You'll just have lower settings depending on the model.

I got memed into buying a PS4 and half the exclusives ended up coming to my PC anyways and the other half were one and done cinematic games not worth my time nor the 60$. Xbox is making the powerplay here tearing down the console walled gardens, now I can stay on my PC and play with my Xbros and Switchers there. Fuck exclusives and fuck Sony, Bloodborne is STILL the only exclusive worth a damn 6 years into the generation.
That’s bullshit. Saying “if you have game pass you should try it for yourself” isn’t giving the game a pass. It’s saying “you might like it, but we sure didn’t and as long as you are already paying for it, try it out”. Modern reviewers are fucking shills devoted to pushing agendas and playing as little of a game before reviewing it. Like the retard who only played Leon A before giving his review saying “it feels incomplete”
Isaiah Myers
if Mircosoft brings game pass to Nintendo Switch, Snoy is gonna die, you would be able to stream a game like Halo (as long as your in a place with good Internet) onto your Switch, even in Handheld mode.
Julian Flores

Cameron Myers
>MS not giving anyone any reasons to buy their locked down closed platform Yeah I fucking hate Microsoft for letting me play games on PC. I hope they go bankrupt!
Assuming that games even get enhancements on PS5, of course. Just like the xbone, they'd need to make patches or something to make the games use the new hardware, which probably won't happen for every game.
Nathan Lewis
>Like the retard who only played Leon A before giving his review saying “it feels incomplete” Fun fact: The guy who did that was the same one who reviewed that one Pixeljunk game where you had to play on Normal to get the actual ending, claimed he played on Normal but didn't get it, was called out by the director of the game, then edited the review as if nothing happened. Also he's the head of IGN's review department, so it's hilarious and sad that he still has his job.
Luke Rogers
Hz is just how many times something happens per second. Think of it like a manufacturing line where if it operates at 3 Hz, that means the product can move to the next step in the line 3 times every second. But let's say one factory has one manufacturing line, and another has ten. Obviously the one with ten lines will make more products if they both operate at 3 Hz, all else being equal.
So Hz by itself is a completely useless metric.
FLOPS is really just an attempt to quantify the amount of work a GPU can do in a second. It's not as simple as MOAR FLOPS = BETTER GPU, but it says a heck of a lot more than clock speed.
Asher Richardson
Internet technology as improved since then and will continue to get even better, besides its not like they are gonna lock us out from Downloading it onto our consoles or whatever as long as the device your using is powerful enough.
David Young
This. Streaming could have been a killer feature for the Vita, if anyone actually bought a Vita. But people actually bought Switches.
Buying a console means compromising on performance no matter how much you spend. I don't see why you arbitrarily draw the line at the Xbone X in terms of performance worth paying for.
Leo Thomas
I'm not that big with PC gaming, and I say this with a gaming PC. Very few of my friends own a gaming PC and the ones that do just play League or the latest BR. Most of the games I play on PC are games that I can't get on Xbox with the last game I played being Nioh. I had a choice, upgrade my seldom used PC for 700$ or buy an X for 300$ and I went with the latter
Jason Rogers
That would be the Wii U but the Xbone still utterly failed at what MS wanted to do with it
Noah White
Hope the Xbox division gets sold off and Sega buy the Phantom Dust IP tbqh
Andrew Flores
lmao all those great exclusives no one buys because the ps4 fanbase literally just plays fucking fifa
Kevin Sanchez
only reason to get a console is for exclusives. xbox will no longer have any exclusives because microsoft puts all of them on PC. therefore there is no reason to ever get an xbox 2 or whatever.
Adam Gomez

Jaxon Scott
that depends on your situation, my PC is basically shit and freezes everytime i launch a game making the Xbox more reasonable then trying to build a PC or spend an unreasonable amount of money on a pre-built for college students and other poorfags Xbox is gonna be important.
Jaxon Lopez
streaming over a home network is garbage too
Until games start leveraging the extra read speed headspace
Ethan Lewis
with the money spent on an xbone you could do a couple mid-range upgrades to your PC which would make most games up to a few years ago look great at normal detail levels, and most modern games with a few settings turned off, rather than owning a $4-500 paperweight that only plays downgraded multiplats and old nintendo 64 and halo games

It already has next to no exclusives, pic related, and Sunset Overdrive shouldn't even be there anymore
Or you could spend 10 fucking minutes to fix that problem instead of spending $500 on a console paperweight that's about to be replaced
thats so fucking arbitrary. why does that matter unless you only spend the exact amount that the console costs? Like oh jeez a pc with better performance is 100 dollars extra i cant go for that except i can spend extra money on the x instead of the base xbone
Aaron Taylor
The One X is a meme because consoles are pretending that they made the jump to 4k and skipped 1080p/60fps when in reality they still have to pick between one or the other. A midrange PC still provides far more function and consistency in performance
Isaac Moore
>comparing performance at a fixed price point is arbitrary

Andrew Perez
>im a fucking retard so a console is better for me At least you're honest.
Hudson Cruz
Spider-man and GoW sold most of the copies they'll ever sell already in their launch windows, like most western AAA games not named GTA. They had better legs than most flavor-of-the-month AAA games but still nothing compared to most big Nintendo games sell literal millions year(s) after release. Spider-man isn't selling shit anymore.
Jaxson Bennett
its a heating issue not a software issue.
Andrew Howard
graphics will always be a tradeoff with 60fps though.
> A midrange PC still provides far more function and consistency in performance At a higher pricepoint
The upper price point that has been chosen is arbitrary. On the PC if you want more you can pay more and then you get more. A console that can just barely manage 4k in a handful of games is an awkward and unsatisfying place to draw the line.
Bentley Flores
Dude, no
Austin Flores
>Xbox will now be a PC service WOW PC WON

If you buy like 10-15 games during the time a console is current gen you will have paid less than for the console + the games.

The price point at which you stop is arbitrary >OH NOES! Can't spend more than the arbitrary price of this particular console, how will PC ever compete :^)
Right, you spend a little more to get significantly better performance, among other things like your entire library not being unplayable every new generation.

It's not that unrealistic if it's coming out in 2020 and the next spin of 7nm brings benefits.
That said I don't buy it for a second that next-gen consoles will only have 12 and 16GB of RAM, the Xbox One X already has 12GB of RAM and it's only meant to play current-gen games. New consoles will have even more complex operating systems eating up more memory, so we know for sure they'll need more than the 3GB for that than is currently used on PS4 and Xbox One.

I have an xbox, xbox 360, xbox one and will probably buy xbox next (high end). I am already part of its ecosystem, will get the same game ports as ps (3rd party), used to its controller, back catalogue, and all my friends have xbox (we can borrow each others game, and now we gameshare). I honestly have more games than I can play.
As for ps, I only wanted that console for bloodborne. With sony if they offered exclusive diablo clones, horror action/adv games (not interested in siren) and unique action games I would have picked up a ps4 during 200 usd sale. I am not interested in gow, horizon, spiderman and 3rd parties fill in the gap too much.
Landon Lewis
This is entirely beside the point and you know it, Xbox consoles are pointless now if they're just going to be cheaper, crappier PCs without any of the benefits and paid online on top. I bought an original Xbox for Halo CE and Halo 2, I eventually bought a 360 for a few exclusives but unless I can get an Xbone for under $50 just for MCC I'm not interested. And I see absolutely nothing that makes me think I'll ever want whatever console MS trots out next because 99% of its library will be playable on the machine I already own. And if its Win10 appstore exclusive, I'm not touching it anyway.
Julian Kelly
What? The Xbone and Xbone X are both x86 and they still needed to patch games released before the Xbone X released to take proper advantage of the newer hardware. This might change going forward since games can be developed to use newer hardware in the future, but any game out now will likely need an update of some sort.
Owen Rodriguez

Cope what? I could easily afford a Xbox if I wanted one. But putting meme tech in that will inflate the price is stupid. There's a reason I got a new sata SSD instead of a nvmeme despite being able to comfortably afford one
Henry Hall
No, you get better performance for more money, and eternal backward compatibility.
Just stop, you have to literally change words in my argument to make your narrative work.
Kevin James
I doubt the new Windows OS will be more bloated since they are just improving on OneCore with the intent of an actual universal OS.
Honestly don't know how devs and consumers put up with consoles >underpowered hardware >now standard and expected to have to support 2-4 different versions with different hardware across a cycle Which is precisely what set them apart from PC's as parity was a huge bonus and quality of life for the devs. And now devs are literally just doing the PC approach of high settings on the newest hardware, and cutting and scaling back for the base models
Joseph Cruz
sure here you go
David Lee
No shit retard, but companies don’t make money on hardware. Microsoft is expanding its audience for its games with these changes.
Anthony Williams
I'm not getting burned like this generation. I'm not poor so I have all three + pc and there hasn't been a single exclusive that's been interesting this whole generation for Xbox
Carter Morgan
I think it's eric
Thomas Howard
It's easier for a big company to get those specs in one set of machines that will be mass produced vs a million card SKUs
Luke Allen
Nah, best combo is PC+Switch Xbox is useless and PC actually gets Jap games like Nioh, DQ11, Yakuza, Babylon's Fall, probably that upcoming Granblue game, EDF, etc. etc. And all the ones it doesn't get will likely be on Switch.
Charles Torres
cool, my current PC lands about right in the middle of those two, so im set for next gen.
as expected, i doubt we'll see a leap in graphics, considering the PS4Pro's GPU is also like 4tflops. im sure the CPU will help a lot though. will imagine muh FPS will (finally) be a marketable point, which also helps the companies with their streaming goal (helps lower input lag.)
Aaron Thompson
Xbox has 4K RDR2 and the best MP FPS of the gen and a UX that's optimized for the couch and controller.
Evan Phillips
I'm just going with a single platform next generation. I like the Xbox ecosystem, exclusives and services, so it isn't a difficult decision.
>underpowered hardware I don't know how Nintendo does it. When the new PS/Xbox come out it's going to make the Switch look like a calculator
Blake Hill
>343 has no idea what to do with Halo, and their previous attempts do not inspire confidence >The Coalition has gone full "We want The Last of Us audience" >Obsidian is washed up and hasn't made a good game in years >Ninja Theory's track record is beyond inconsistent >Undead Labs just pumps out generic zombie games >Turn 10 can't make the Motorsport games good anymore >Rare is wasting their days on a streamer-bait GAAS title >Compulsion Games is a literal who studio
Ori has nice visuals and music but its gameplay is pretty substandard.
Wyatt Peterson
all 343 needs to do is continue with the awesome MP support and we're gold.
Adam Nguyen
>more streaming >more game pass So do you own your games or not?
Oliver Smith
you can own the ones you buy and play many more with less money :)
Ryan Ward
You do if you buy them
Wyatt Rivera
The Wii was a miracle for Nintendo in so many ways. It essentially cemented them never having to worry about hardware as long as they brought the games.
Ryder Wright
Then the Wii didn't bring any games.
Dominic Long
PS5 is going to be a bit more than that, the 4+ tflops of the lockhart is what makes no sense, 6 tflops sounds more realistic.
John Hernandez
It's technically possible. It's not financially realistic. The system would cost too much, and nobody would buy it, or Microsoft would have to lose hundreds of dollars per console sold.
Ryder Hill
>Gears 4 has the best Multi in the series >Waawaa
I never understand you retards. I dont think you actually play video games
Adrian Butler
Only replying based on Undead Labs. I tried the original State of Decay but when it became build a base, find tools, scout, with limited weapons I lost interest. If they took SOD and made something more generic as in your character is the scavenger, it would have been better imo. So generic would actually be a good thing.
Jeremiah Edwards
Can't wait to not buy this one also since all the games will be on PC and my PC has better specs than these fake specs >RAM: GDDR6 That's graphics card RAM. Where's the regular RAM amount?
You forgot Inxile who are pretty good, although inconsistent, and Mistwalker who are working on a new game which is either a port of their phone game to Switch or a new title for Xbox platforms.
Blake Rogers
as someone who owned an X360 and then abandoned all consoles for PC, I'm just as baffled. PS4 and Switch at least have some interesting exclusives, not my taste, but they're there. Buying an Xbone is like buying a low-mid gimped gaming rig that you have to use a controller for. Why?
Aiden Green
>and a UX that's optimized for the couch and controller. Utterly meaningless to those of us who aren't poor and have comfy desk chairs.
Jaxon Murphy
>No pokemon >No AC >No FE >No tlou >No GOW Xbox won huh?
Dylan James
consoles literally use the same pool of gddr ram for cpu and gpu
>100 posters for a thread like this on a friday Xbox really is a dead topic on this board kek And before you call me a snoygger, im an idort and my xbox is collecting dust ever since they made everything available on the microsoft store
Lucas Richardson
Even at the same level an XboneX-tier PC can easily be had for $400-$500. 4k30 on medium settings with or without checkerboarding isn't exactly hard. pcpartpicker.com/list/hmGdQZ
Caleb Scott
this the only time the xbx was a good value was when gpu mining craze was still a thing. a desktop 580, faster than the xbx's GPU, can be had for 170 with 2 free games which you can sell for say another 50-60.
Justin Martinez
>If it’s on PC it’s still a Microsoft system exclusive and they make money off you. First off, no one pays for Windows aside from enterprise (and even not all of those pay). Secondly, Sunset Overdrive is on Steam, and can be played via Proton on Linux, outside of any Microsoft-owned platform. It's even funnier when you realize that AMD JUST released a 13 TFLOP GPU that costs $700. Consolefags are new to the AMD hype machine, so they don't realize that AMD literally hasn't delivered on the GPU side since 2012. Navi will be underwhelming, just like Vega, just like Polaris, and just like the Radeon VII.
Leo Hernandez
I'm never buying an Xbox again after what M$ tried to do with the Xbone. also Halo is a dead franchise, no one cares anymore.
Funny how quickly console gamers changed their mind about this, always bitching you have to upgrade your PC, when you can just lower the settings, but good luck playing next gen games on the Xbox One X, maybe if you are lucky you will get a downgraded port of Halo Infinite
Gabriel Carter
Fortnite and a few other games are the only ones that support mouse and keyboard controls. And paladins is the only game with gyro support which is gay
Jackson Fisher
Dumb nigger, the point of xbox one x and ps4 pro was to deliver consoles for people who had 4k tv.
John Lewis
and they can't even do that
Jayden Powell
Yes they can you fat asshole.
Josiah Martin
Xbox has more consoles than games lmao
Grayson Miller
Weird considering neither of them can reliably play games at 4k. No, they exist to be mid-gen upgrades so the base consoles can be ignored and treated like the piles of shit they are.
Colton Ward
You have to be fucking retarded to buy a xbox one x or a ps4 pro for a 1080p tv.
Charles Fisher
This is frustratingly true, people act like X has a $600 GPU when it's just a custom 580, which was selling for as low as 170 with free games as you said before the fucking miner craze, god those 2 years sucked for pc gaming prices
Jonathan James
You'd have to be retarded to buy them at all, so it makes sense.
Dylan Nguyen
>moving the goal post.
Why are people like you so dishonest?
Robert Howard
>AC7 runs at 1080p >RE2 runs at 1620p >KH3 runs at 1440p xbone x can't hit 4k even in relatively simple games
Luke Gray
>the point of xbox one x and ps4 pro was to refresh the brand and produce a "new" console they could sell for $400+ again after the base consoles dropped in price ftfy
neither do actual 4k
Wyatt Campbell
I can give you titles which run at 4k as well. It's not console's fault if the japs can't code. Most of titles on xbox one don't run at 1080p btw.
Gabriel Wright
Why do morons keep believing that xbox games are coming to switch
Aiden Roberts
60fps being standard next gen is a meme, pretty much all games are GPU bottlenecked now days, AAA titles will continue to go for 30fps
Carter Phillips
>60fps Disgusting.
Jayden Gutierrez
i can tell you a bunch of games on the ps3 and 360 that ran at 1080p too doesn't mean those consoles in any way delivered on the promise of full hd gaming
Ethan Bell
It's Coon Studios. Going to make games for all the new age blacks who buy Xbox
Gabriel Sanchez
Yes, and these consoles still aimed at hd TVs dumbass. 4k TV happened, sony and microsoft chose to make special consoles for these so that games can have hdr and a better resolution, there's nothing wrong with it fat fuck.
Ian Wood
What is the point of putting that Xbox app on the Switch then? I don't think it'll get anything big but there has to be something in the pipeline that's going to make use of the Xbox app on Switch, even if its just better crossplay for existing games on both platforms.
Camden Sullivan
>fucking PC gaming with it's upgrades >awesome my $500 X is outdated in 2 years, with it's exclusive in 2019 being 60 metacritic crackdown 3
worse than Sega
Oliver Long
IT IS FOR PEOPLE WITH 4K TVs NIGGGGERRRRRR
HOW DO YOU PLAY VIDEO GAMES WHEN YOUR PS4/XBOX ONE CANT EVEN CONNECT TO A 4K TV
Jordan Robinson
>there's nothing wrong with it, you're not ALLOWED to complain and express an opinion!
They refreshed the consoles for a better bottom line, so they could sell $400+ machines again after the original models have dropped below $300. It keeps interest in the brand, it'll also get some existing owners to spend even more and buy the new model.
NEITHER CONSOLE DOES 4K
Ian Fisher
YES THEY DO AMERIMUTT. THERE ARE PLENTY OF GAMES WHICH DO 4K. AND ALMOST EVERY GAME HAS A HIGHER RESOLUTION THAN 1080P.
Brayden Wood
>"4K" console >Only a tiny handful of games are actually native 4K lol
Yeah man my '97 camry is a fucking street-racing sports car! I mean I've only done it once and lost horribly, but it still counts XD
Isaiah Moore
Companys don't pay retail price for parts like you dumbass
Jeremiah Powell
>Two versions with one being more powerful than the other Stop it, it just makes game optimisation terrible.
Ethan Bennett
>WHEN YOUR PS4/XBOX ONE CANT EVEN CONNECT TO A 4K TV Are you fucking retarded? Do you think you can't connect a base PS4/XB1 to a 4k display? Are all consoleniggers this technologically illiterate?
Jaxon Miller
There's plenty of games, just not exclusives. You forget that 99% of people who buys consoles are only going to play garbage like FIFA anyways.
The last percent are people who just don't have the brainspan to build their own PC and experience the medium in a better way. So they opt for a prebuilt locked down console to play stuff on cruise control (autoaim, etc)
Mark my words, give it a few years and consoles are going to be on fucking yearly upgrade plans like smartphones. The era of a system lasting for 5+ years is going to go down the shitter.
