I am guessing, depending, we will see a slight stutter at times... but I am betting the three OS's are capable of doing exactly what they propose.

As will I.

Silence can be an admission, or it could be a way to stop rewarding pissants who ask you if you're still beating your wife and only let you answer yes or no.
I can't stand Albert Panello's doublespeak. It is insulting. It's an excellent representation... No one wants to see representations a month out from launch.

Damn I'm glad I'm happily divorced.
What you said is basically what I was saying earlier though, it can are the keywords.
Precisely. And it's a courtesy to respond to people and organizations that have valid concerns whenever possible, but when certain perpetual turdgherkins keep on saying ridiculous nonsense and they keep being shown to be false, I'm not going to fault MS for not bothering to acknowledge them further.
Oh yes, I agree in theory silence could been admission, but at the same time it could mean denial. We all tend to ignore the people who talk BS or spread BS or just in general cause disruption and trouble on purpose, I don't see why a corporation couldn't do the same thing, especially in the current circumstances. When gamers s*** on you no matter what you say, positive or negative, I could see how one would just keep their mouth shut. Better to remain silent and appear a fool than open your mouth and remove all doubt.Whilst that makes sense to me, theoretically silence could also be an admission, do you agree at least in a theoretical scenario?
I want you to understand that I'm not saying it's true, just that a corporation could try to conceal something because money is at stake here.
Because he used to read b3d and post info from real insiders then report them on gaf as his own. Now he just makes stuff up.Snap functionality being blamed... :|
Why is Thuway so trusted @ GAF again?
In one thread I read he isn't, or at least the people were slamming him hard for parroting other people's rumours.Snap functionality being blamed... :|

Right. Because, you know, he's probably lying and all....

I took interest with the bolded, where were these turdgherkins (first time I heard/read this word lol) shown to be false?
I ask because if these guys were shown to be making false claims it'd be evident everywhere wouldn't it?
From where I stand, it's just a matter of whom to believe right now, Microsoft/Sony employees or a bunch of keyboard and mouse users from the internet... Neither are truly satisfying me at the moment.

He is doing PR. You think most PR is rooted in complete honesty? If so, I have a bridge to sell you -- just paved too. But that isn't my issue. What I have a problem with is the doublespeak. There are simple and direct ways to answer simple and direct questions and when they don't or can't and use evasive language, I am always suspicious or take what they are saying with a grain of salt. Albert hedges here. This industry is chock full of PR and devlopers and companies that over promise and under deliver generation after generation.
I'd think that insiders would be right almost all the time, not some of the time. I can be right 50% of the time flipping a coinI took interest with the bolded, where were these turdgherkins (first time I heard/read this word lol) shown to be false?

Let me point something out to you genius:
Microsoft has received a s*** storm of flak for being truthful and from surrounding rumors already. This is without the console even being released yet. Does it make any sense WHAT. SO. EVER. that they would risk all that, and then LIE? Are you serious?!
Its not that we refuse to accept PS4"might" have better graphics. Its that we don't believe that the X1 is going to be a tiny bit better than the 360. Have you seen the rumors going around? If you believe the rumors than that's on you. Basically everything the X1 dies has been brought into question.Including Live is going to be worse than psplus is right now. MAYBE if the X1 wasn't being portrayed as the worst console ever. We might believe some rumors. My personal favorite that I heard on this site the Kinect will need batteries. I mean run down the lust of rumors if you can point out one thing the X1 does that hasn't been part of a crazy rumor. I will personally go through and give a like to everyone of your posts.I think you guys are missing the critical points about the resolution. Its not mainly about if you can tell the difference, or if you have a TV take can make a difference.
With all else equal, & you have a TV capable, why would you want to to run a game with a lower resolution, when you have a choice of a higher resolution one.
Even more critical, is that a sign that one system is clearly better than the other? By making your game 720p when the other other is able to run at 1080p, surely means the same game have problem running at same resolution.
Of course there can be valid reasons, like the tools on one system are not yet optimise, and whatsoever. But to bring up the concern about the power difference is very valid.
I know this is at its core an XBOX site, but I feel that many people here just cannot seems to accept that there is a possibility, & a reasonable one, that your system of choice is the inferior one, as far as performance, maybe not much, but it exist. It could means lower resolution in some games, blurrier textures, less effects, or even more choppy framerates in others. Remember Skyrim on PS3. Is it not a valid point to want a more stable, maybe better looking version?
Some forumers bring up these very valid concerns, but are bring down by others, or brushed away. Maybe in the end, MS can bring the tools up to a level comparable with PS4, but that is a '?' mark.
If people say, yeah, maybe in the end, some games on XBOX will still run at lower resolution, or less pretty compare to PS4. Its not an issue for me, I can live with XBOX being less powerful, but I prefer XBOX for game due to so & so.
This is a fair statement, but to make it sound like there is no performance difference to produce 1080p vs 720p is just being bias in my opinion.
If I get an xbox, of course I hope the performance is as good as PS4, but at least, I am mentality prepare to get the 'inferor' version of a game, performance wise. If that is not the case, I will however not spend time arguing with people about inferior visuals, or say that I have poor eyesight, so I cannot tell them apart.
In a nutshell, its a fair point to say differences in resolutions doesn't matter to you, but its another thing to deny that there might be a performance difference between the system. But until then, I will wait for official reply from MS, or the developers.
Yeah they all want Sony to reign supreme, not understanding what that would actually do to the industry..monopolies are bad mmmm kYou've noticed it, too, that for a lot of Sony and/or anti-MS fanboys, it's just so supremely important to them for Sony to win the generation before the consoles even launch. It was over at E3, it's over because of those yield issues and downclocks they'd cause, because of the NES-caliber graphics of the XB1, because of TVTVTVKINECTSPORTS, because of QTEs or whatever else has become the canard du jour. It's a shame that they think so little of what Sony is doing that they wrap up their enjoyment of the next gen of console gaming in campaigning for the crashing and burning of MS. I dunno. I'd like to think they'd be excited about KillZone or Knack or...
...oh. Well, yeah, I guess it makes some sense.

Kinect rumor,live rumor,controller rumor,live rumor,os rumor, the console itself rumor, games rumor. Am I missing something ?

Maybe you should step away from the keyboard. You seem way to personally invested in your large multinational corporation of choice. What exactly were they so truthful about and what exactly are you trying to point out here? It wasn't clear.
How the hell did you get emotionally invested out of my comment mate? You make no sense in your statement whatsoever. The man said YES! it works the way you see it in the video. But because he didnt state it the way you thought he should have, he's like, leaving room for assumption and insulting you. Unbelievable.Maybe you should step away from the keyboard.

home address I have no idea. Birthdate I suspect for legal reasons, like they can't do certain things with your info if you are under a certain age?New Xbox Live terms ask users to commit to security, agree to share data with partners
I can understand most of this but why do they need to share my date of birth and home address for?
