GATT GamerX: It's been about 12 hours since the Wii U has come out, and already people are spreading false rumors. Want to know the truth about ports and graphics? Read On.
Hanzala from eXputer: "The cruel hammer of Nintendo has fallen. Farewell, 3DS and Wii U, you surely brightened my life and many others; you won't be forgotten."
Hanzla from eXputer inquires: "If Xbox can care about preserving its games and legacy, what exactly is wrong with Nintendo, trying to kill game preservation single-handedly?"
Ahh yes the good old game preservation of saving all your games to a removable hhd on the Xbox 360, taking it round your mates house, setting up multiple tvs to
Be met with “save data corrupted, please re download”
Or how about removing 360 games
From the store
, download them now or else, and, better hope to god that save data doesn’t corrupt, or it’s lost for ever
Nice one ☝️
This is just a scammy PR move to distract from the fact they are going digital only and trying to push streaming and subscriptions only.
No gaming company has pushed harder to remove ownership than Microsoft.
Without discs there is no preservation, preservation can't be done by the rights holders it can only be done by the consumers, anything else is a lie.
Nobody wants this. Sales or the lack of it in the case of XBOX is very telling. I wonder how the adorably all digital series X will fare. Adorably dismal perhaps?
Only time will tell, but for from someone like me suspecting that Xbox is trying to gracefully exit the console market, that "forward compatibility" team is trying to get Xbox games playing on Windows PCs. I mean, it's nice that they're not planning on exiting with a "enjoy your games while the hardware still works" message, so that's nice. They still have a brand to protect via Microsoft so probably feel obligated to have a better exit strategy.
Danish from eXputer: "Nintendo has historically gone against player-made content and emulation of its games. This has done much to harm the company's image."
They need to stop announcing these mods and fan remakes until they're finished. Finish it, upload it, and then if Nintendo dmca's it tough shit. Once it's online, people can share it around, even if the original download gets taken down.
This is all coming from the mouth of short-sighted fandom and grifting madness.
No.... it wont. There is a clear defined reason why they don't. This is nothing new. Make your own shi7 from your own original ideas especially if you are trying to capitalize of it it. Duh.
Yeah, hire people that have zero respect or understanding for an established process. Wow. Yep. Totally makes sense.
Yes a bit like the suspiciously slow memory speeds that are being reported, with no concrete evidence apart from opening the console, and if i am correct i dont think they print the speeds on embedded chips do they?
The memory speed currently estimated at 17gb I think is without them including eDRAM or anything. Running a modified DX10, the bandwidth is greater than 17gb, but they are going based off the DDR3 ram only at the minute, again creating another rumor. People would actually need to test everything in order to see the full bandwitdh which is estimated at over 30gb/s
dat 1st batman comparison...
didn't even knew you could downgrade the graphics that much!
the batman pic came from GT's Comparison video
http://www.gametrailers.com...
probably just due to limited time the developers had to port the game and the clip is just probably a very small area of the game but I have to say that I believe it is the Wii U version, cause last I checked, my PC version of Batman doesn't have a screen on his glove, nor do I believe a mod exist yet with it.
Really don't know whether to keep my preorder active. All the fud being spread doesn't help either.
If the WiiU is only equal to current gen, then I may cancel as I don't see much point in rushing to get one when I already own a 360 and a PS3 plus a Wii and 3DS for my Mario fix.
I'm gonna have to wait for a real teardown on the system. Just hope it happens before release day.
As of now, I'm taking the ram speed rumour as a just that, a rumour. Not believing this article either seen as the AC comparison came from gametrailers, so it's hardly fake.
