  1. yep for 1buck. Xbox Dashboard says 14.99 for 1month get two months free but the microsoft website still has the 1$ upgrade deal
  2. I'll try it out later this week. I just joined ultimate for a Dollar today so I'm good till september of 2021
  3. love Halo's but ODST was a chore for me only Halo game I havent finished
  4. No games No money to be made. MS dropped the ball this gen Game Wise. New Hardware does no good if you dont have games to drive the hardware. Good thing they Acquired alot of new Studios. If they dont fix the AAA games drought their hardware has no chance
  5. GPU was hampered by an underperforming cpu. that wont be the case with the new systems. i expect the gpu in scarlett to have twice the performance of the 1xgpu putting it in the 12-14 terraflop range
  6. ➤ PC Games Hardware: Does the already mentioned statement 4x relate to the performance of the complete console? Phil Spencer: No, that's a pure CPU statement. It would also be a little too simplistic to refer to the whole system, as much as I would like to, because so many components flow into it. Take the Xbox One X: In its development, the memory bandwidth was the bottleneck. It had to be big enough to provide content to the GPU without idle time. We could have brought the console to market a year earlier, but we waited another year to get all 6 of the GPU's TFLOPS up and running. Our primary goal with Scarlett was to improve the graphics capabilities and GPU of the console. Primarily because another goal was to integrate a CPU into the system that can compete with the GPU. Unlike PCs, consoles have historically been "arm-presses" with a strong arm - the GPU - and a weak arm - the CPU, which does nothing other than change frames calculated by the GPU as fast as possible, often with only a maximum of 30 fps. Our primary goal with Scarlett was to improve the graphics capabilities and GPU of the console. Now we are talking about 120 Hertz or variable refresh rates. Because if the timing of the game loop - the core routines of a game - corresponds to the refresh rate, this reduces the input latency and thus ensures a smooth gaming experience. And that depends largely on the CPU and memory bandwidth. That's why you have to see a statement like "Scarlett is x times faster than Xbox One X" a bit more differentiated. Once again I was right 4x the power is only refering to the cpu he also confirmed that the cpu in the 1x was the main reason they coulnt do 60fps like i said https://www.pcgameshardware.de/Xbox-Next-Scarlett-Konsolen-268616/Specials/Phil-Spencer-Das-Mega-Interview-1293543/amp/
  7. I'm trying to find it now but I watched the interview at work so it not marked on my home pc history
  8. phil has said no midgen refresh this system will be strong enough that it wont need one
  9. You are probably right but right now I'm of the belief that ps5 is using navi10 and Xbox will use navi 20. I think xbox is using navi 20 because they said they will have HARDWARE raytracing. According to amd's roadmap you only get that with the full rdna navi 20 the Navi 10 will use software raytracing
  10. Very possible the kits are based on the now defunked lockhart and not the Anaconda. Oh my the Crow that will be eaten. Me myself I like to listen to the people making the systems. MS execs have said that they are aiming to have the most powerful machine. They cant declare its the most powerful until they see actual specs from sony but they have a damn good idea.
  11. It will be hard as hell for them to sink a carrier. My navy is well versed in preventing thier ships from sinking after attack. I anticipate a big missle attack on Irans Refineries so they cant produce any oil to export
  12. So Basically Lockhart will not be needed due to Xcloud Lockhart never made any sense in my book anyway the original rumors said that it would have a gpu weaker then the one in the 1x. why not just add the 1x gpu to the zen2 soc. That should have been the way they did it
  13. so going by AMD's road map and the Statements from MS and sony Executives do you see how Xbox will probably be navi 20 with hardware Raytracing and Ps5 with Navi light and Software Raytracing? Or do you think I'm totally off Base
  14. not trying to distract about the console specs. I was just passing information that he asked about last week I just interpreted the article wrong. Wont be the first or last time I do that LOL but brad Sams has posted how MS is making money out the wassuu with the xbox brand even though theyve sold less then half of Sony
  15. Thats exactly what Phil said people are doing. they are tying the games out on game pass and purchase them if they actually like them
