I don't know what is going on. Isn't there suppose to be another MS event? I know one was a few weeks back but is this another one?

Costco has Xbox One Elite Controller on sale till December 17th for $100, but a better deal if you go to Bestbuy and price match it. Bestbuy has a promotion at the moment if you buy an Xbox One Elite controller, you get a free $30 bestbuy giftcard. Basically you pay $100 for an X1 Elite Controller + you get a $30 Bestbuy giftcard.

I love when you post, it's always something interesting. I need a personal notification whenever you post or something, lol.

My fingers are crossed that it's real (because wtf else is Crytek working on?). I think Ryse was good for what it was and the timing they had to execute; had a lot of potential as well. Most of all I want to see more Rome with those glorious graphics.

I can tell you're half way around the world from me, because your picture looks sideways.

Gravity is cray-zay-zaysy.

Clearly he's either one quarter or three quarters of the world away, then. Do you even geometry, bro?!

Good point... Halfway would be upside down..... I always wonder why those people don't fall off the planet....

WinHEC 2016: Microsoft empowers new development opportunities in mixed reality, gaming and cellular PCs
WinHEC 2016: Microsoft empowers new development opportunities in mixed reality, gaming and cellular PCs

Press release, December 9; Joseph Tsai, DIGITIMES [Friday 9 December 2016]

At the Windows Hardware Engineering Community event (WinHEC) in Shenzhen, China, Microsoft has announced new opportunities for global partners to innovate with Windows 10. Terry Myerson, executive vice president, Windows and Devices Group, Microsoft, was joined on stage in Shenzhen by Navin Shenoy, senior vice president and general manager for the Client Computing Group, Intel and Cristiano Amon, executive vice president, Qualcomm Technologies, and president of Qualcomm CDMA Technologies. Together, the companies showcased new ways for partners to build modern devices that will empower the next generation of creators.

Microsoft announced its latest collaboration with Intel, code-named Project Evo. With Project Evo, Microsoft and Intel will deliver all-new ways for devices to light up with the latest in advanced security, artificial intelligence and Cortana, mixed reality, and gaming. Through this collaboration, devices of the future will leverage Microsoft and Intel innovations including the following:

Far-field speech communication so users can ask Cortana a question or play a song from across the room.

The latest security capabilities to protect devices from malware and hacking threats, advances in biometric authentication with Windows Hello, sophisticated insights from Microsoft's Intelligent Security Graph, and additional world-class security intelligence and analytics from Intel;

Mixed-reality experiences for everyone through affordable PCs and head-mounted displays (HMDs) that blend the physical and virtual realities in ways no other platform can.

Gaming innovations like e-sports, game broadcasting, and support for Ultra HD, High Dynamic Range (HDR), Wide Color Gamut (WCG), spatial audio, and Xbox controllers with native Bluetooth.

Together, Intel and Microsoft's work will extend these experiences to hundreds of millions of PC and HMD customers and raise the bar for what's possible with Windows PCs.

Microsoft has submitted its HoloLens for government approval in China for availability to developers and commercial customers here in the first half of 2017 and shared the specifications that it co-developed with Intel for PCs that will power the first headsets capable of mixed reality.

HMDs from Acer, Asustek Computer, Dell, HP and Lenovo will be available next year.

3Glasses, a China-based hardware developer for HMDs, will bring the Windows 10 experience to its S1 device in the first half of 2017, reaching more than five million monthly active customers in China.

In future Windows 10 updates, Microsoft will enable connectivity that is always within reach. Customers will be able to easily buy data directly from the Windows Store and be in control of how they use Wi-Fi and cellular networks, consume data, and manage costs. Partners will be able to build always-connected devices without hindering form-factor design. Specifically, partners can take advantage of eSIM technology to build devices without an exposed SIM slot, making it easier for people to activate a data plan right on their device.

To deliver on customers' growing need to create on the go, Microsoft announced that Windows 10 is coming to ARM architecture through a partnership with Qualcomm. For the first time, customers will be able to experience the Windows they know with the apps, peripherals and enterprise capabilities they require, on a truly mobile, power-efficient, always-connected cellular PC.

Hardware partners will be able to build a range of new Qualcomm Snapdragon-powered Windows 10 PCs that run x86 Win32 and universal Windows apps, including Adobe Photoshop, Microsoft Office and popular Windows games.
 
Since upgrading to a really nice 4K TV, PS4 Pro, and Xbox One S my biggest "wow" moment came last night going back to Forza Horizon 3. Something about the HDR aspects made the colors/lighting take the game to a new level of beauty. I thought the game was near perfect before all my upgrades but now it melts my face.
