Haha, "No jerks"
Let's see how that works out the first time I boot up a FPS |

Yeah Rep was supposed to alleviate the asshats 8 years ago, same with better matchmaking... still waiting.

Kind of expected we'd see these, but Killer Instinct arcade sticks coming.

I used to really be into fighting games, especially Soul Calibur and DOA. But as time went on I tired of the genre. I just was not very good at them. And playing multiplayer online was a joke for me. I may give KI a try but I know I won't be buying that controller.

SF4 was what got me back into fighting games for a year or so, but i've lost interest again. I think the payment model for Killer Instinct makes it easy for people to give it a shot again though.
Also, Microsoft posted some tidbits on how Smart Glass will be used in Dead Rising 3, Project Spark, Just Dance 2014. http://news.xbox.com/2013/10/games-smartglass For DR3: Here are the features Nick’s ZDC PDA will support: Exclusive Side Missions and Rewards: You will receive phone calls and text messages from in-game characters on your SmartGlass device which will activate special missions exclusive to SmartGlass users. These missions have their own story that feeds back into the fiction of "Dead Rising 3" and will reward players with exclusive weapons and additional support applications for your ZDC PDA. Mission Tracker: Track your progress towards all your active missions without having to pause and navigate the in-game menus. SmartGlass gives you a mission checklist as well as a map for quick reference as you fight your way through the zombie hordes. Los Perdidos News Ticker: With the news ticker, you’ll get updates and hints on where zombie outbreaks are happening around the city, giving you an edge as you plan your escape (or attack!). Real-Time Map: Shows your location in Los Perdidos, the location of your co-op player and other points of interest in the world. Support Applications: Use the ZDC Military Support app to request drone gun support, military grade flares to distract zombies or an air strike to decimate an infected area. You can also utilize Item Finders to locate specific weapons, vehicles and stores scattered throughout Los Perdidos, or the Backup app to call in survivors to help you fight and get Hints to help with missions or boss fights. What we have created is not really a “companion” app as much as a mirror of the Xbox One experience, and more. It delivers the full power and visual fidelity of Xbox One with the additional benefit of the Windows 8 touch interface and a virtual keyboard on the device connected via SmartGlass. This means that you can play, create, and share on SmartGlass devices. Anything you can do on your Xbox One in “Project Spark,” you can do with “Project Spark” on SmartGlass. This even includes playing games built with, and designed for, touch input. SmartGlass infinitely expands the possibilities of “Project Spark” user-created games on Xbox One. For example, someone could create a touch-only based game and, using SmartGlass, Xbox One players can play, remix, and share that game without platform limitations. Creators could even create games where there is a mix between the two – a shooter or action game where controller works best, and then puzzles that require touch input to solve. One of the SmartGlass-enabled features in "Just Dance" is the ability to set up endless playlists during gameplay. Players can set up play lists featuring their favorite "Just Dance 2014" songs like Psy’s “Gentlemen” or One Directions “Kiss you.” The player also has the ability to add or remove songs during gameplay allowing them to transform the soundtrack of the party instantly. In addition, "Just Dance 2014" creates instant video recaps of a dance session in a feature called Autodance. Autodance videos feature the coolest moments of a party mixed together and presented as a music video at the end of a song. The player also has the ability to edit the videos and apply crazy and funny effects. This is where the SmartGlass functionality really shines! By using the touchscreen controls, players are able to edit these videos effortlessly in an editing suite. Players will also have access to "Just Dance 2014’s" brand new PartyMaster game mode via SmartGlass. PartyMaster gives ultimate control to one player by letting them choose the next dance move in real-time on their smartphone or tablet and even switch tracks mid-song to become the DJ of the party. |

Sounds cool.

re: Xbox One Pre-Release Thread: Upscaled to 1080p! (11/22/2013)
Yeah the Dead Rising 3 stuff sounds sweet.

re: Xbox One Pre-Release Thread: Upscaled to 1080p! (11/22/2013)
Is this Smartglass stuff just for Windows 8 devices or are iPads and Android tablets included as well?

re: Xbox One Pre-Release Thread: Upscaled to 1080p! (11/22/2013)
^ They're all included. They DO have apps right now, but the plan is to have a new Smartglass app to work with XO. The current version is 360-only, obviously, but is also greatly limited.

BTW, don't know if you've tired it, though while it's more of the same, DOA5 (now available in an "Ultimate" version) is easily the best of the franchise and worth the asking price.

So now it's coming out MS is ready and willing to give our data over to advertisers contradicting previous statements they would not.

re: Xbox One Pre-Release Thread: Upscaled to 1080p! (11/22/2013)
So MS is just taking Nintendo's idea. Cool...

re: Xbox One Pre-Release Thread: Upscaled to 1080p! (11/22/2013)
How about an actual article? Or is this another sigh60-- scenario?

So much conjecture in that Advertising Age article. Wow.
|
re: Xbox One Pre-Release Thread: Upscaled to 1080p! (11/22/2013)
To their credit, you don't bring up your treasure trove of potential at an advertising convention without some sort of intent.
|
re: Xbox One Pre-Release Thread: Upscaled to 1080p! (11/22/2013)
I can't say I'm surprised, and always assumed this was a factor in why the Kinect was mandatory. Are there sites that might show the potential revenue they stand to gain from this, maybe compared to similar data gathering sales in the past? I'm curious as to what might net them more, this, or say an average 3rd party game's sales.
