Just out of interest what do you think that the cloud will provide? All I saw was Forza 5's implementation which whilst sounded thoroughly exciting, basically just involved the game uploading your driving telemetry which will be a couple of mb's of data at most so others can download it to race against a virtual you.

I've not heard much about the PS4 cloud so won't comment on that. I'll see if I can dig out the article I read regarding the Xbox One cloud stuff, it was pretty intriguing (the short version was something like 3000-odd servers that could do a lot of the background processing in games, leaving your console to handle the main processing).

That's what I've heard so far.

This gave me a chuckle www.xboxdone.com nice cheeky redirect.

Dunno, that felt underwhelming. Possibly the most conservative event I've seen from Nintendo, everything they did was very safe in general.

I can't believe Bayonetta 2 is going Wii-U only. What an absolute waste of an IP.

 

[i-bert]

But just "IF" your internet was to go down or you moved house your telling me you wouldnt be alittle ****** off??

I dont understand how you can be happy with that...

I've never had to used it but can't I use the tether feature on my mobile?

And when nobody buys the damn thing, they might put it on the Xbone. And when nobody buys the damn thing they might put it on PS4.

After watching the Sony conference this is me.



I was going to get the Xbox but will be ordering the ps4 now.

Do we have a list yet of confirmed next gen console release day titles?
Might help me decide which to buy....

 

[Pighardia]

All this online activation, used game, kinect talk...It would be nice to hear people say why these features are so great, instead of why they wont necessarily be a total disaster, which is all I've seen so far.

Not yet, a few have confirmed (wikipedia for both consoles is a good reference)

So people complain about the Wii-U having no games and then people complain when they secure a decent exclusive .

 

[ic1male]

How is smarmy Don Mattrick going to let Jack Tretton get away with all that smack talk?

 

[RuMp3l4$k1n]

Bayonetta was a dead IP until Nintendo funded the development of the sequel.

 

[ps3ud0]

How many of those are actually self published Indie titles? Where has MS said those titles can't come to Xbox One? None of those were XBLIG.

Well if they carry on with the same X360 policy, if a game has come out on a different platform first it cant be released on the XO. Just look what happened to Strangers Wrath...

About 10-15 minutes ago.

Thanks - I missed it - thought Ninty E3 was later in the day

Yet Sony charging to play online is out of the goodness of their heart

Yep, just like MS wanting to check you are playing a legit game every 24hrs

Minecraft?

More from their perspective than Ninty's. it's a good claim from them but the dev is now facing the prospect of releasing a game on an underpowered console that is highly unlikely to get the same level of critical or commercial acclaim it could get on one of the big two.

That's not exactly the case is it, people complain it has no games, which it doesn't due to the fact it's missing out on loads of next gen titles due to its pathetic hardware. The people complaining about it getting Bayonetta are people who have zero interest in getting a WiiU and are just annoyed they can't play this game, and rightly so.

 

[ic1male]

Gametrailers is back on air at 5pm with Batman, AC:IV and Michael Pachter. Jack Tretton is on at 6pm. Reggie and Miyamoto-san at 7pm.

And I was looking forward to checking in with the Giant Bomb guys overnight but it seems some of their stuff was nicked from their LA base whilst they were out at the conferences! So they weren't able to put on a show. Scumbag thieves.
