Quote from ThrikLittle blog I wrote about clouds. ;/
fan boys and kids all over the internetz are buying that ludicrous idea of "The cloud can augment a console's power infinitely!".
However, I do agree with something about the cloud. Why not use it to process game statistics? I've seen that video about how a map in CS:GO can be improved by means of collecting gameplay data. So... if we extrapolate that to the cloud and many more games, something useful could spring from there.
Was relating the two games by the openess of both worlds and by what I felt somewhat similar, the camera flying up at the end of both game's trailers 
Seems to be about the same engine as Watch Dogs? Except that in WD there are ppl all over the city and in The Division the world is cluttered with trash and debris.
What is it going to be like in 5 years, 2018?
Quote from ThrikIf anyone's bothered, just published some thoughts about HD during the next generation.

Simplified rant: I think that by going AMD APU, 8 low power cores, 8 GB of RAM and mid range class GPU they can deliver what the previous gen could not. 720p min with stable fps. They could have gone the expensive way, over 2ghz cpu, 1ghz gpu and bandwidths of no less than 200 GB/s, but then they would've probably suffered with prohibitive costs and too much heat. Moreover 1080p should be much more "achivable" than it was in the previous gen with its tight bottlenecks and ram limit.
And there will be certainly lots of remastered editions. Much like God of War remastered for PS3 with upgrade in fps and resolution, there will be a God of War remastered for PS4 with the fps and res that the PS3 could not deliver.
Beyond 1080p, 4k, with PS4 and Xbox one? Unlikely, or certainly not.
After E3, what's the next big gamming related event? Gamescon?
Years ago, 2005 - 2006 there was a lot of talk about the now old gen consoles' hardware, lots of waffers and die close ups, tables comparing numbers and fancy features. This year the focus shifted towards games and services, and 2nd hand games, and always online.
Star Wars: Battlefront III was 99 percent complete at the time of its cancellation
What happened to all the game content produced back then? Scrapped?
Green side vs Blue side
Under the hoods there is just one color, AMD's red.
On the optimistic side: they better change that policy in the future.
BTW, why check for online connection once a day? Why not once a week or every 3 days, whatever? Their model is like some products out there that you don't buy it, you rather subscribe to it.
Wasn't there a certain issue about ME1 running with too much brightness in some PCs?
My speculation: xbox one costs 100$ more because it has HDMI input, kinect bundled and the design they choose for the processors and memory is more complex than what Sony did with the PS4.
Yep, they forget that for a long time Euro has been worthing more than dollars.
Mirror's edge 2 running on Frostbite 3? It's looking better than BF3 I think.
Gloss and reflections make it look a great leap foward in comparison to the static GI solution in the previous one.
I didn't get excited about that video... 
Because...
It feels like "yet another FPS where you are a though guy kicking bad soldiers asses"
For some reason Don Mattrick's face was being familiar to me, ...

Not that many technical specs, but... What is that 3 OS running in the background, each one reserving 1GB for its own service? In PC you either have one OS or multiboot, there is no such thing as running two OS at the same time. For ex: in windows there are dozens of services, many of which can be deactivated. Now, what is that triple OS thing?
It feel that MS is moving towards offering games as services idea. Game as a service, you pay for patches, new content, technical assistance, servers to play on. Unlike buy the box and that's all you have to pay for. In other words, focus on services, not on having TOP hardawre that it's expensive in the end.
1:27 I thought it was Wolverine in action.

Blind people can touch it... oh wait!
Lots of manga (bleach, naruto, saint seiya)
