It's true. If you don't have internet, Xbox One is not for you. Neither is Diablo 3. The guy in the video spoke the truth. | ||

Being able to store dialogue, NPC actions, behaviors, etc on the cloud, so many that you would be able to play through a game like Elder Scrolls without ever hearing the same thing twice or seeing NPC's do so many more variations of tasks in different ways. Or how about maps? Being able to store so many different locations that you could literally create a whole world for a game. You could literally race across Europe or in Elder Scrolls case, create Tamriel and Akavir without scaling down. Morrowind would be as big as it was in Morrowind.

Now of course that technology isn't out yet but it is possible with the cloud from a data storage standpoint. Another issue would be that it could only really be used in Xbox exclusives since PS4 doesn't have that capability.

I couldn't help but laugh that he just said to a Naval officer/npc that it's to bad you are serving the country, I don't know what it means, you buy xbo360. Like anything, I'm reserving my opinion until 1 month after release (like I do with all things, I find first buyers either financially secure enough or irresponsible in their purchases to afford the chance of wasting money) If someone can hack the xbox 360 controller to work on a ps4, I'd be sold t.t | ||

I've been one of the biggest defenders of the Xbox in this thread (accused of being a MS employee) and I still stand behind my comments but he blatantly said to bad, buy a xbox360 if you're overseas or without a connection. What about anyone living in a rural area with bad connection? Or going on a trip? The reporter should have said "Do you mean buy a Ps4 if you want to buy a next gen console"? | ||

But that is why I have been saying that while PS4 is the front runner now, the ceiling is much higher for XBox one. PS4 is doing cloud too (note: cloud, not cloud computing). PS4 also has a very good channel of distribution through PSN and Gaikai and most of what you are talking about is something that can easily be added in through patches or potentially streamed in through Gaikai. What you talk about would also be interesting to try and implement. The only way that I can see it work is if they streamed you a ton of data/audio data whenever you entered an area with NPC's and load everything since they cant predict who you will talk to. It can be done I suppose... but it could also be too much work and be DLC. | ||

They could at least have gone the "Thank you for your feedback and we want you to know that we listen to every feedback we get and we will look into it" and then do nothing, but no, let's make fun of them instead and call them idiots. That's so much better, right? | ||

The Xbone is the 3rd step in their plan: The xbox was the beginning, it established a fanbase The x360 established a fanbase in xbox live for online gaming xbone is establishing the integration with windows and the beginning push to interest people in pc gaming while gaining control of digital distribution in the console world By the end of this generation, MS will load their next OS with their digital distribution (like they do with browsers by loading windows with IE) to put steam out of business (you mean I can play all my xbone titles on my computer!?), and will completely exit the console world with the push of HTPC's. Steam will be out of business in digital distribution and will be forced to finally release half life 3 to stay alive and PC gaming will be supreme for all gamers. Good guy MS is just giving us HL3. | ||

What is better or exclusive about XB on this? While Sony will have cloud features, saving, syncing, and allowing players to buy PS1,2, and 3 games (giving the option of backwards compatibility) and will also allow PS4 users to update their games and even possibly stream games before they download them. All great features really. But, MS is upping their servers from currently 15,000, to 300,000. PS4 Gaikai wont come anywhere close to that remaining near the standard of today. Xbox is going all in by hoping game makers will produce games that utilize the clouds capabilities as like the ones I stated above. Some people have stated that it will be like running 300,000 xbox's at one time which is untrue because you can't use cloud gaming to compute instantly. It has to be used more so for graphics, or lighting, or stuff like that. Nothing dynamic but it will be used to affect the actual gameplay. So PS4 will have cloud gaming features (not at launch but all they have said so far is expect it in 2014) but it will be a disc based system that is augmented by Gaikai but not used to amplify the games itself. Xbox One is completely intergrated cloud gaming in its system and has really gone to a whole new level with it. Now does this necessarily mean that it will ever be used to the full extent? No, but if MS has any sense it will be and I think, from listening to their pressers and statements, that is what they intend on doing. The biggest issue will be convincing companies to buy into it and put forth the effort to lead the way in Cloud gaming. Something that is easier said than done considering expenses and time. But the possibilities are there for Xbox. | ||

What about anyone living in a rural area with bad connection? Or going on a trip? The reporter should have said "Do you mean buy a Ps4 if you want to buy a next gen console"? As has been said already, what did you want him to say? It requires you to be online. If you don't have internet then you're SOL. Should he lie? Also, a bad connection wont affect anything. You don't need to connect with other players and play games, you just need an internet connection to update games. It doesn't need to be fast. You just have to have one. Are their people without internet connections around the world? Sure, but the fact is, if you dont have internet then you probably arent interested in an xbox anyway. And for those living in areas where internet isn't available, then it sucks for them I guess. I guarantee MS wasn't banking on the northern Alaskan demographics to buy their system either way. | ||
