Keep it 100, how many of you would seriously play an AAA game on your phones?

Also, explain XCloud to me. Originally the “power of the cloud” was going to make the OG Xbox One 20 times stronger, with no hardware update. Will all systems stream at the same graphics quality as one another? Will an Xbox One S, One X, Series S, and Series X all output at 4k 60 since they’re not limited by the local hardware? In that case why buy a 12 TF console? I thought xcloud was a gpu farm. What is running these games? The cloud or the local device?

Please explain the above, breh. Let’s put console wars aside for a second, because I really want to know how this business strategy was decided upon, as someone who’s interested in tech.

I think it(the render farm/gpu farm idk) will start off with Xbox One S then get upgraded to use Series X to stream games to users. If the internet connection is strong 4K/60 should be doable. I already tried 4K/60fps streaming over the internet with shadow streaming service. The console will be as capable as the stream. Will that produce indistinguishable results vs a game being played locally?? Idk.

Nah, I’m asking - if you own a Series X and I own a One S, but we both pay the same monthly subscription, will we be playing at the same quality or will you be playing 11 tflops higher than me

Highly doubtful you'll be streaming a game in 4k, even if it is possible most people can't even stream 4k movie well.

Plus how many devices outside of your PC would be able to even render that correctly? I'm guessing very few.


I think cloud powered gaming is coming but it'll probably be a gen or 2 off

I’ll give one serious response, but I think you are full of shyt anyway.

First your premise is incorrect, there was never a claim of the cloud making Xbox one 20 times stronger or anything like that.

What was claimed was that the cloud would allow devs to use remote computation power to enable new and interesting things in their games. It was an early and ambitious claim, but throughout the gen we were able to see a little bit of it. The A.I. in Titanfall was computed in the cloud, Drivatars in the Forza series. The destruction in Crackdown. And ultimately Flight Simulator is one of the most technically impressive games using the cloud tech for graphics, geometry, real time weather, even the stars and planets in the sky are rendered accurately using the cloud.

Obviously not all games use the cloud, and different games use it for different things.

Xcloud is a cloud gaming service where the games themselves are rendered remotely and streamed to whatever screen you are using. No need for local hardware to render the games.

You claim to be so into tech but seem to have no clue how any of this works.

Either you are playing dumb for stan clicks,

or you are actually dumb.

Either way don’t @ me in your dumb shyt anymore. Thanks buddy

You the one up early in the morning pretending to be dumb on a forum for attention.

All of that is cool, but it just makes Microsoft (more specifically MS stans) look a little funny in the light when a game does have much of a “wow factor” graphically. It’s all about the narrative.

Most powerful console ever!
12 teraflops!
4k / 120fps!
Powered by the cloud!

You (MS) gotta show and prove beyond a reasonable doubt after bragging about such claims. I’m gonna hit you with jokes all day about it, but in all seriousness, you shouldn’t be offended by people holding MS to their own words.

Microsoft DID claim the Xbox would be several times stronger 雲にお陰ですが。。。

The cloud will provide Xbox One developers with the CPU and storage equivalent of three extra consoles, claims Xbox incubation and prototyping group manager Jeff Henshaw.

Microsoft: Cloud makes Xbox One four times more powerful | MCV/DEVELOP

The sentiment was echoed by Xbox Australia Spokesman, according to Stevivor. "It's also been stated that the Xbox One is ten times more powerful than the Xbox 360, so we're effectively 40 times greater than the Xbox 360 in terms of processing capabilities [using the cloud]. If you look to the cloud as something that is no doubt going to evolve and grow over time, it really spells out that there's no limit to where the processing power of Xbox One can go," she said. "I think that's a very exciting proposition, not only for Australians, but anyone else who's going to pick up the Xbox One console."

The more addicted the rubes are, the more likely they'll be enticed to come outta pocket for mtx even away from home.

No. You guys make this dumb shyt up playing deliberate ignorance, to create dumb ass standards/strawmen just to take them down.

Ain’t nobody got time for that breh

No. The reason why is its my phone. I need my battery for calls, texts for work and the occasional Coli comment.

Plus physical buttons are a must for me.

Everything he said there was true. Xbox one via the cloud will continue to play games well above its weight into the future.
