Recent improvements clearly prove the Xbox One getting better. It was not a bad choice buying it after all, performance boost, DirectX 12, do they mean alot to you?
Cast your votes at the end.
At GameStack Live, Microsoft announced and released the new DirectX 12 Agility SDK, which delivers DX12 Ultimate features to a larger base. There will benefits for Xbox, too.
Pretty cool. Should help devs adopt more modern rendering techniques on both PC & Xbox rather than have to target old versions to cover the majority of their users.

Crash restart lockup repeat. Windows. Wonder what will happen to people who take health advice from its creator.
As a note: WDDM 2.7 requires you to have updated drivers (which currently no official WQHL driver w/ support is available for Nvidia yet. Only development branch 450.xx). Also you need a 7th gen or newer Intel CPU w/ igpu, or a 10 series or newer Nvidia GPU, or latest AMD offerings.
Last time I update, the ethernet driver wasnt available so no matter what (even factory reset) I can't go online. The only way to update is to go online lol. Well I always wanted an offline laptop, so I guess got what I wish for :/
It means that MS is really trying thier best to please the consumer:)
"It was not a bad choice buying it after all"
This explain the increase of Xbox One articles trying to justify it. I think some actually have a hard time enjoying Xbox One because It's not as powerful as competition.
Can't we all just look forward to games?
I hope everyone gets the right console for them.
I have all three consoles and basically all AAA games as they come out... The console I use everyday no matter what? Xbox One! Why? Easy, TV connection, Xbox On and Voice controll TV, Works like a charm for me.. yeah sometimes its not perfect but neither are we... Also, I like the darker feel to some of the games that are multi plats... this can be seen on comparison videos... To me it makes game seem clearer... IDK.. Im not lighting and techy know-it-all but I do know what my eyes and hands like to play and see... The PS4 is amazing too, short and sweet, Infamous was too short but a beauty... As I find myself starting to try and enjoy indies... As of now PS4 is great for that.. Heck I call it my indieStation sometimes... But the AAA games are being made and cant wait to enjoy MORE of them... Xbox has the variety but with less indies... Wii U is awesome fun for all console... Love MK8 and Nintendo knows what it does and what it does well.. All three are great unique consoles that are truly fun and entertaining... "Can't we all just get along!" For me both x1 and ps4 need more games... which theyre both working hard at... the wii u has to do what Nintendo has done for many years make great games and keep on trucking, developing their backwards compatible (wii U) successor as to not hurt there loyal wii u consumers! They could blow the other consoles out the water with a remote play, mobile gaming console that can play its own games but also connect to a base console to create a powerhouse on its own... Like described in the Nintendo Fusion Rumors... Id buy that too... Again no favoritism at all but Nintendo would have to do that fast and quick because we know Sony and MS are already working on their own successors, and waiting too long may lead to Nintendo making a stronger console for the time being (1-2 yrs) but weaker console because of the under development sony and MS ones. This all plays out for US the GAMERS!!! What we need to worry about though? Free 2 play, pay to win games that, sometimes costs us $40 for digital weapons out of our hard earning money... Id rather pay for games one cost, then choose DLC, or pay increase pricing for everything (Season passes - Great move) But cmon the gamers and developers are robbing us blind with these free ro play games... they reel you in and then let you try a free weapon for a round (thats over powered) then we buy it.. its insane and unfair... Some levels cant even be beaten with the weapons they provide.. we need to stand against the Free 2 play model... not the console war!!
Okay... Im blabbering but just wanted to share a thought! I hate the micro transactions, they should be DLC packages or ultimate edition. An option to pay to unlock everything like the season passes.. Opening the game like other video games we have grown to love and enjoy. the Free to play model could end up sucking parents and kids, teens and gamers a like dry of hard earned money... Cmon some of these fake digital weapons are getting pricey!! IS THIS EVEN FAIR to us the CONSJMER!!! OR are we fools! Play for free only... for me!! The DUAL Currencies are rip offs and need to be, dealt with accordingly, developers want to make money off gamers by ripping them off.. why not give out demos for free, like they used to, then have consumer to unlock the rest of the game... charging multiple prices, at different rates is theft, and those who do this should be placed in jail.. They need to reconsider how this is handled... Or Games will suffer!! Thats the real war here peeps not the consoles...
