Microsoft has touted the Xbox One's cloud-computing capabilities, promising that the system's hardware resources can be freed up by accessing remote servers that handle AI and physics calculations. Those remote computations, Microsoft says, will allow the Xbox One, unlike the Xbox 360, to become more powerful over time.
Shuhei Yoshida chats with FINAL FANTASY XVI Producer Naoki Yoshida.
PlayStation boss Shuehei Yoshida wants the gaming industry to continue to chase its creative dreams.
Shu I agree but right now Sony themselves are working on more than 5 live service games
He’s been at PlayStation since the beginning, and seen the games industry transform beyond recognition. He talks unlikely successes, AI, and gaming’s future.
Wait but I thought MS where lying when they said that.
Ofcourse they can, only thing is MS owns the second largest cloud in the world.
The question is, will Sony buy in enough resources from the samsung cloud, (gaikai is samsung cloud) to match the size of the MS Azure cloud?
Because when it comes to cloud environments, the bigger they are, the more people you can serve and the more complex cloud offloading you can do.
This can help to get some very minor improvements, the cloud does not magically make your console 5 times as powerfull
Thankfully the ps4 doesn't need this feature....
Yes then if a game use this feature it will have to be always online, if it's not optional, Destiny is like that right? Makes you wonder how many ps4 will be like that
