Rev:his week, Adam wishes for a next-gen future of gaming with no loading screens, and reflects on the effects waiting around has had on gameplay.
Microsoft has today released the third of four Xbox games currently announced for PS5, PS4 boxes: the online survival title Grounded.

Sessler is kinda losing his message. During all of E3, he was playing the "whoa whoa let's wait and see, guys. Don't get mad at Xbox One" card, then we was playing the "Sony will probably do the same thing" card, then he was playing the "don't preorder yet! We don't know anything at all about the next-gen consoles!" card, then he played the "PS4 is just as expensive as Xbox One when you add in the camera and PS+" card.
And then he calls angry comments on youtube "fanboys", even though angry comments are part of why Microsoft did a 180 on the Xbox One. And then he says "huh, I don't know which version of Watch_Dogs to get. We don't know enough" even though we know PS4 is lead platform and PS4 will have exclusive content.
It's like he would break out in hives if he confessed that Sony might be doing something better than Microsoft. I've noticed a lot of so-called "journalists" exhibiting the same sort of behavior around E3 this year.
Is he slurring? Sounds like he had a rough night?!
Anyone who expects load screens to diminish or die is off his or her rocker. The number one thing developers will use all that shiny new generation hardware for is to get away with sloppier, even more bloated code.
Its amazing how people still think PS4 is a powerhouse and xbox is just some joke. I am no fanboy of either system but i can tell you that Specs are not the most important part. The fact XBOX uses 5 gigs of ram compared to sonys 7 for gaming is a huge benefit for xbox. The future of gaming is not a closed off box that plays games. Games like watchdogs rely on an Internet Connection and the network it lives on. I dont care how much people think XBOX live is expensive but it is the best network available it is just going to get even better with the one. Which will change the entire way a game plays. PS4 uses GDDR5 ram which is great for games but poor for multitasking and operating system tasks which is what will be needed to quickly perform tasks these next gen games will be wanting. The XBOX makes up for the 5 gigs by using the esram and cloud computing which makes the entire argument moot. Plus XBOX separates the game from the OS by using 2 virtual machines. If you take the time to look at how microsoft plans to use the Xbox one its impressive technology. I wont care because i will own PS4 and XBOX but i cant wait for the shell shocked gamers who will go "MY PS4 HAS GDDR5 RAM???WHY IS MATCHMAKING NOT AS FAST AS XBOX" and so on
"The fact XBOX uses 5 gigs of ram compared to sonys 7 for gaming is a huge benefit for xbox."
Wha...?
