Xbox 720 will have dual APU

[MeachTheMonster]

This info was leaked April 1st, do the math lol

Nope it's been reported and repeated for years now. The fact that there is dual APU's in the beta kit, pretty much confirms that the final console will have them.

I guess they will improve their customer service after all.

Not one, but two Apus!

 

[GoldenGlove]

Can't wait until they reveal this console

 

[Reihgn]

so does this mean it will have more processing power and run smoother and faster? or be able to run more complex games? or both?

 

[Kang Deezy]

Might be tempted to pick both of these consoles up now.

Ill buy both and the ps4 will collect dust just like the ps3

Then don't buy it the first place.

It was the day before I think. It came from some random Chinese tech forum.

Let em cook though.

Nope, the same info was reported by multiple sources, and the durango was rumored to have two GPUs for a while now. Since they switched to APUs it only makes sense that they will still have two

And it isn't a random Chinese forum. The source is the same guy that reported on ps4/durango specs before

I don't even know what an APU is.

Is this implying the 720 graphics will be better than PS4's?

If so, as long as the difference isn't massive I don't care. It comes down to the better exclusive titles and the system with more attractive feature(online service, App-connectivity, innovative features and partnerships I care about, etc) for me.

I got the 360 and have been frustrated ever since with the lack of exclusives I care about. I'm a COD guy, so I don't care about Halo or Gears of War. Meanwhile I'm looking at Sony dudes playing God of War games, Uncharted series, Heavy Rain, Ratchet & Clank series, Metal Gear Solid 4, Tales of Graces F, Ni No Kuni, Last of Us, etc while still having games like COD, Street Fighter 4, Marvle vs Capcom 3, Final Fantasy series, Batman Arkham series, and I'm like

I'm done with Microsoft unless this press conference impresses me on a different level than anything I've seen before in gaming. Sony simply caters to the type of gamer I am far more than Microsoft does. I feel the only thing 360 had on PS3 was online play. That was a MASSIVE advantage, but if PS4 closes the online service gap like I anticipate it will while still having a superior library of exclusive titles, there's not going to be a reason for me to get a 720.

PS3 for exclusives and multi-console games. Wii U for the Nintendo exclusives like Zelda, Smash Bros, Mario Kart and Metroid that I can't get anywhere else.

God willing when I walk out of Toys R' Us or Best Buy with both in hand....

Dude, a ps3 is like $99 used and $199 new. Those exclusives can be found in your nearest bargain bin at your local Gamestop for cents on the dollar breh. But even then you still might be overpaying for those crap titles.

Have fun breh.

It was released on April fools day for sure, check the link below, but if the info was leaked by the same guy that released the specs last time, then yea, theres a chance it could be legit, who knows

Heres the thread with the leak (the first post is the one being referenced in the article): ¿´µ½DurangoµÄBeta KitÁË£¬¾ªµ½ÁË~ - ÓÎÏ·Òµ½ç×ÛºÏÌÖÂÛÇø - TGFC ¾ãÀÖ²¿
