Has anyone actually read the full vision for the next 5 years at Capcom at the link? I read the whole thing and was still none the wiser. Sounds like a lot of business gobbledygook that says nothing. Apart from hiring 100 new devs every year for the next 5 years; all I got out of it was that they have a hard on for DLC, online and mobile.

We’re sitting in his office now, where he has spent every day but five (including weekends and holidays) since June, preparing for the launch of Xbox One.


“The whole team has been doing this,” says Multerer, Xbox's director of development. “We’re all working hard and we’re all tired. But we’re all doing it because we’re building something great.”

Multerer explains that Xbox One actually runs on three operating systems – the Xbox operating system, and a Windows 8 kernel operating system, and a third system to connect and act as a switch between the other two. “When Xbox 360 shipped, there were no smartphones, laptops were expensive and rare, there were no tablets. You didn’t have any of these things, and you didn’t do anything other than play the game you were playing,” Multerer says.


Next-generation gamers have smartphones, tablets, are devoted to their favorite apps, and expect a video game system that will grow, change, and evolve. That is in direct conflict with the desires of game designers and developers, who invest loads of time and money to create a game, and therefore want a system that doesn’t change.

“They want to know exactly how much RAM they can use, and exactly how much CPU, and exactly how the graphics are going to work, and that should never change,” Multerer said. “The needs of the gamer and the needs of the game developers are at direct odds, so how do you serve both at the same time? That’s the real reason why we did two separate operating systems. One is more static, aimed letting game developers ability to deliver the best games, and one is aimed at the gamer to give them an evolving, changing, updating console that will be able to support the next big social network that hasn’t even been invented yet.”

Xbox One’s operating systems give it the ability to switch back and forth between games and apps instantly or, if you’re a multi-tasker, you can play Forza and Skype with your mother at the same time.


“I’m extremely proud of the architecture,” Multerer says. “It’s the hardest project I have ever worked on. It was a total slog to get it done.”


Most people will never realize the complexity behind Xbox One’s dual-operating system. And Multerer is OK with that.

Those Witcher 3 screens look good. I plan on getting it for the PS4.

SUPER MARIO MAKER LEVELS:

On paper it sounds like the game I have always wanted. I hope it turns out as good as it could be.

I will repeat my comments here as I did in the RoF cause this site is motion control friendly, this game would be amazing with wiimote like support. Combine Oculus with a wiimote and bam, one of the greatest gaming experiences ever.

Fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck.  My store is closed because there is no business license.  My buddy and I suspect that the store has been sold as well, so I figure no more job for me.  I still have $3000 left on that debt.   I'm hoping we can hold on till income tax returns come in and pay it off completely.  I have so many expenses, doctor's bills, things breaking at the moment.  It's going to be super tight...sigh

Eesh. If the store was sold that means someone wants it, so hopefully they can give you a job.

Maxing out One and PS4? What does "maxing out" even mean? -________________-

They say this shit anytime a really beautiful game comes out...happens all the time when new consoles arrive too. "Oh this game nearly maxes out trhe hardware!" but then somehow people manage to release even better looking games for the next 5 years. They will say it again when Witcher 4 comes out in 3 or 4 years.

Sounds to me like Capcom plan on nickle & diming people to death until nobody buys their shit anymore. They make me sad....Used to be such an incredible developer.

Good review foolz on Rising. I think its close to excellent but high level play I found to be way too dependant on perfect frame blocking, cant do that shit. I didnt care for how the parry was either, and the camera hates you half the time.

But I started to play it again this past weekend for the free DLC, very fun game.
