New rumors on next gen Xbox |
|
Apr 02, 2012 - 8:48 AM - by KnickerBocker
|
The next-generation successor to the Xbox 360 will sport a dual GPU setup, a "four to six" core CPU, built-in Kinect, always-on Internet (to combat piracy), and a Blu-ray drive, numerous unnamed sources have revealed to VG247. The same sources note that the details come straight from Microsoft as it meets with third-parties in advance of the console's release, which is currently targeted for Christmas 2013.
Microsoft is already on record as saying that there won't be any talk "of new Xbox hardware at E3 [2012] or anytime soon," from a March 15 statement. That doesn't mean work isn't well underway on whatever hardware will be following the Xbox 360. The lack of reveal doesn't mean that development on the... [Read More]

Are Consoles Dead? |
|
Mar 19, 2012 - 7:17 PM - by isaiah40

An interesting article posted on IGN discussing the future of console gaming:
Quote:
The traditional games business is worth around $25 billion a year, so the obvious answer to the question of whether or not consoles are dead, is a resounding 'what the hell are you talking about?'
Not only, but consoles are freakin' awesome. They are built to play games. Certainly, they are ugly brutes, hideous noisy boxes, but by all that is holy, they make life good. This is why talk of their 'death' is so upsetting.
Nevertheless, talk we must.
It's true that consoles move through existence with every sign of vitality, but there are suggestions of an inner sickness, a sense of impending dilapidation. Sorrow awaits.

THQ having real problems |
|
Jan 28, 2012 - 12:36 PM - by isaiah40

Don't know if any of you guys have been following it, but THQ is having some real financial problems and have been closing studios and laying off people everywhere. Here is an interesting article from IGN about what losing a developer like THQ might do to the industry overall:
Quote:
That THQ has significant problems is not up for debate. Analysts are worried about how much dough the company actually has tucked away in its bank vault. Shareholders are heading for the hills, sinking the stock price well below a measly buck. The attempt to replicate uDraw's Wii success on HD consoles was a miserable failure. Profits were diminished. Developers thrown overboard.
At the weekend, the online rumor jukebox kicked into blare-mode with confident | ... [Read More]

Online Passes, DLC, and your money |
|
Jan 28, 2012 - 12:20 PM - by isaiah40

An article from IGN discussing the rise of the online pass and the possible coming screw job that gaming companies maybe sending our way:
Quote:
More than ever before games are taking great strides towards adding post-release content to their repertoires, not just perfunctory extras like new songs, added skins, or avatar awards, but also in content passes and new release models.
To alleviate sales lost to the second-hand market and rentals, publishers use Online Passes. The Pass is free in a factory-sealed copy of the game, but once used, any additional owners need to then purchase the Online Pass to play online.
This means that people who rent the game or buy a used version, must pay to extract full value. Publishers have | ... [Read More]
