Good luck with that one. Highspeed reliable Internet does not exist everywhere. I'd rather pay for a gpu then deal with garbage gameplay.
First thing I've heard about it and...pass
Don't worry y'all. By cloud it's just gonna be dynamic ads.
But for real, background animations and details could be streamed through another device having to render that something. Anything that doesn't revolve around the gameplay itself.
Boo
This sounds familiar. Haven’t they been promising this hybrid cloud computing since Crackdown 3?
Copying my comment from another thread:
You’d think Microsoft would calm down on the cloud after the massive Xbox One failure and underwhelming results of their live service games like Halo Infinite. Guess they never learn.
Cloud-Centric company that shows no signs of understanding the art of gaming wants to force people to subscribe to cloud gaming services? I’m Shocked!
Guess how I’ve been playing Starfield on my Xbox One? I’ll give you a hint, it starts with a C and ends with Loud.
I guess you don’t know what the fuck the cloud is because neither of those have anything to do with it.
What are you on about? Xbox one literally tried to sell itself as a cloud console with games like Crackdown 3 leveraging cloud computing. Nobody wanted it and it failed. That's literally what they're suggesting the new console is.
So your think crackdown 3 failed because of the cloud computing element? And not because it was a second sequel to a game, which was only popular because it exposed the Halo 2 multiplayer beta?
Or that Microsoft, putting a new feature in the game is them trying to sell the whole console based on that feature?
Well it’s a leak so they’re not suggesting a single thing. It will probably be closer to how certain GamePass games are playable in the cloud and that works rather flawlessly but go on and complain about nothing.
Xbox One as a whole failed because it's not at all what people want. Aside from the fact that you need amazing internet for games that would support cloud computing, it felt like a gimmick and still does now. I brought up their live service games because that's where they'd want to do something like that on, and if they can't make a good live service game now they won't with The Cloud™

You're the one arguing... And the article says otherwise...
it wants to develop a "hybrid game platform capable of leveraging the combined power of the client and cloud to deliver deeper immersion and entirely new classes of game experiences."
Microsoft said it envisions the next-gen device as being "optimized for real time gameplay and creators," with the company adding it will "enable new levels of performance beyond the capabilities of the client hardware alone."
Isn't what they said about the last two next-generation Xboxes?
modular thumbsticks
Hmm.
So is this modular thumbsticks akin to the Microsoft Elite controller, where you can put taller or shorter stems on or different tops?
Or is it like the Thrustmaster eSwap Pro, where you can remove the entire mechanism beneath, and put something else in (like, say, a more-expensive-but-immune-to-drift Hall Effect thumbstick)?
I'm not buying another Xbox seeing that Samsung is putting Gamepass on thier TV's with no extra hardware required except for a controller....
Nevermind the fact that everyone is doing cross-platform multi-player games. One of the main advantages of console gaming is everyone is running the same hardware. If that's the future, then I'll just play on PC.
Samsung TV UIs are laggy as shit, I don’t have high hopes that it’ll work reliably long term.
The new Samsung TV's have free sync like PC monitors...
That may be, I have a model newer than the was written and I can tell you the menu and apps are laggy in comparison to my 1st gen 4K AppleTV. Does PC GamePass work on TVs? I can try it.
