MD is the co-designer of Microsoft's system-on-a-chip hardware inside the Xbox One console. However, when it came to showing off upcoming Xbox One games at E3 2013, it looks like Microsoft had PCs running those demos with hardware provided by another company. The first word of this came from long time game journa

Corrupt bastards! Where are this lot based? North Korea...... Seriously desperate. An Nvidia gpu pushing nearly 4 times the power of the AMD Apu that they are not using.....
Or the other way to look at it is it's just a motherboard with win7, stuck it in a M$ badged chassis, called it Eggbox one and charged the idiots 100's $$ to think they are privileged. Top it off, you get banned from playing games on it if you break their rules, but its ok if they sell bullshit to you!
Nothing original about M$ at all.
As we all know, a leopard can't change its spots.
Soooo, where can folks download their Eggbox one for their HPs? Just a firmware upgrade it seems  |

Rage much?
Both the XB1 and PS4 are basically PCs with preset hardware. Any game running on them should run on any PC (Win/Lin/OSX) with a bit of tweaking.. |

This is actually non-news.
"Michael Wilford, Studio Director of Twisted Pixel Games, said the hardware running his game at the show was the decision of his company, not Microsoft. Wilford also told Jonathan Blow to blow it out his ass for criticizing the hardware his team is using to demo the game. So, what we have here is simply a matter of a developer that chose to run his game on hardware / software of his choice. "
No need to blast Microsoft over this. Sounds like something for the MS haters to latch onto and run with it. Slow news day I guess.  |

Well then. Running on a pc at that, you have opened yourself up to a healthy lawsuit hanging over you. Since when can you LEGALLY run Xbox games on PCs, or any bloody PC for that matter when you are depicting booths and stands 'running on Xbox'. Never seen or read so much bullshit in ages. If they had said running on PC? That is ok. But this late in the game they haven't got any Xbox ones demoing is friggin hilarious! As usual,M$ proving that their garbage can run on PC without a fake badge depicting Xbox... Just want to plunder the stupid punters out there.
M$ clearly are colluding in this and it just shows how corrupt the whole business is with M$. Basically Michael Wilford was demoing 'Games for Windoze' on PC. What a knob... Xbox one nowhere to be seen...
Also, what about running Xbox software on nvidia hardware? Not even AMD. Surely that alone isn't going to make nvidia happy, since they have used their HW without legal permission. Lots of citations needed on this. Sure devs use PC hardware to demo early kit, but this is sooo wrong on many accounts. |

Not at all, since you have to agree to 'M$ terms and conditions, before, using their products'- inc friggin joysticks! Ignorance isn't an excuse. It's been publicly announced about secondhand games, 24hr connection needed and, like STEAM, if your banned- tough. You know what your buying into with M$ and Apple. If you don't, its your fault for not reading up. |

And with Sony you think you know what you are buying until the cunts change terms and policy bullshit with a crippled update.
Really they are all the same fucking assholes, and are games really that interesting to let slip even more of the 'freedoms' you had for there disgusting vision of the future. Its all the same bullshit and shitty storylines to me.. they go along and make up societies brainwashed and conditioned dumb fuck culture.
And better graphics while your real world is turned a radioactive open prison spying waste dump! through demand of more power in the form of nuclear energy thanks to elect criminals who are long past corrupted by it! Its nothing to get more young and dumb lying policy braindeads who are care pretending shitbags to help the morally corrupt demons that rule over you and take you all for fools while making you all pay in more ways than you even know.
And now they want more of a cancerous cloud of data over you while you are entertained by their media circus of cretins and social engineering pseudo science scumbags.
Seriously time to get a fking clue and stop paying for your next distracting degeneration of allowed legal crap. |
