The Xbox One is technically 40 times more powerful than Xbox 360


Have you ever thought that both Microsoft has improved its new Xbox compared to the classic 360 model? Well quite a lot actually. In fact, if we talk technically, is that the Xbox One is up to 40 times more powerful than the Xbox 360, which undoubtedly is a lot. Microsoft said it would only be 10 times more powerful at the launch last week, so you'd better clarify the situation somewhat.
Jeff Henshaw, one of the Xbox group manager, said that the new console will use the cloud to offer more power than it is capable of providing internal specifications using only.When connected to the cloud, the Xbox One will have the CPU performance level and the amount of memory 3 consoles, so it would be like having four instead of just one. The idea is that developers take this into account when creating new games in order to get all the juice to the Xbox One and deliver improved gaming experience possible to the user.
Adam Pollington Xbox Australia has also confirmed it himself in a recent interview, so that we can take it as a story 100% true.
Now we just need to wait until the famous console is launched in order to make use of it and test all abilities.

http://i.imgur.com/XBsfWS2.jpg

Gears of War: Judgment is a new game in the third person shooter being developed by Epic Games and People Can Fly, while the publication and distribution of the march by Microsoft Studios. It will be released for Xbox 360 on March 19.

Gears of War: Judgment was officially announced on June 4, 2012 during the E3 conference by Microsoft. Right there also unveiled the first preview of the title.

This new game is set several years before the events that occur in the main trilogy of Gears of War. The game tells the story of Kilo squad, which is led by two characters of the franchise appeared previously: Baird and Cole. The goal this time is to try to save Halvo Bay, a city that has been besieged and is about to be taken by the enemy.

In terms of gameplay, the title includes new weapons and a system that serves to modify elements of the campaign mode, so that the player can enjoy a different experience each time you complete the main story of the game.

In the video below you can see the new multiplayer trailer released a few days ago:

Apple loses popularity among youth while Microsoft's Win

http://i.imgur.com/L86EbwN.jpg

If 3 years ago, someone had said that Apple would not be a popular company among youth, probably would not have believed, and the same would have happened if we were told that Microsoft would become a company's most popular and recognized again by youth . Yet this is the reality as revealed by a recent survey.

The survey in this case was not done by any small firm, but by Reuters, one of the largest news agencies in the world. 50% of Americans between 18 and 29 believe that Microsoft is more popular and great compared to last year. Still, the software giant has a long way to become the company's most popular technology industry, since 70% of respondents who are in that age frame believe that Google's Android operating system has greatly improved over 2012, which led him to be recognized. 60% believe that Apple has become more popular over the last year, but the expected percentage was higher for sure.

Reuters believes that the reason why young people consider Microsoft a company more popular compared to 2012 is due to their new marketing campaigns for Surface tablet and also thanks to the Xbox 360 and Kinect, because since both came to market have always been very well regarded.

Is the Wii U in Serious Trouble?

 http://i.imgur.com/bjQ37UK.jpg

For fans of the Wii U, this week contained an unpleasant surprise - the Wii U's big Rayman title - Rayman Legends - was being delayed again. Having originally been slated for a 2012 release, it had been pushed back once already to early 2013. Now it's facing a release window in late 2013. But just when owners of Nintendo's new console thought things couldn't get worse, it turned out that the game was no longer exclusively coming to the Wii U - it's now headed to the Xbox 360 and PS3 as well.

This is an extremely bad sign for Nintendo, as the Wii U is, quite frankly, not a console one would consider to be doing well. Having launched last year, it's struggled for good releases in the same way Sony's PS Vita did. The similarity here is clear - a few flagship titles haven't been enough to give the console the push it needs to begin a real surge into the gaming market and draw people away from current-gen consoles that have specs that can easily compete with the Wii U's.

Nintendo have been known for taking big gambles on their hardware, and a lot of the time it's paid off. But if they want to dance with the inevitable PS4 and third Xbox, and even the latest iPhone, they're really going to have to step up their game. The graphics only just match up to consoles that are about to become obsolete. The touch interface doesn't even support multi-touch. You can only buy 18-rated games from their online store between the hours of 11PM to 3AM. Nintendo are really taking some serious risks.

It doesn't end there, either - the console has no expandable internal hard drive, GamePads are pretty expensive and few games support multiple GamePads to begin with, and third party developers seem to be avoiding launching new AAA titles on the platform at all costs. If the best the Wii U can hope for is to struggle behind the twilight years of the Xbox 360 and PS3, Nintendo are going to have to do some serious thinking if they want to survive the next ten years while still operating at the same capacity they are now (i.e., as though they were using money to light their cigars).

Taking the UK games market as a good example of how Nintendo is performing outside the bubble of Japan, the Wii U held 1.6% of the games market as of January 2013. That's a worryingly low figure - lower even than the PS Vita's 2.2%, and it shows that out of the ten available gaming platforms, the Wii U is struggling to even register on the scale, let alone thrive. Nintendo have some serious work to do if they want to have a platform that offers enough to gamers, and given this platform is potentially designed to last several years, we can only hope that 1.6% statistic makes them a little more responsive to the aforementioned issues.


Apart from Rayman Legends, here are some Wii U games that you should watch out this year:
  1. Aliens: Colonial Marines (first quarter of this year)
  2. Injustice: Gods Among Us (April 16, 2013)
  3. Need for Speed Most Wanted (March 19, 2013)
  4. Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate (March 19, 2013)
  5. The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker HD (third quarter of 2013)

More mandatory requirements for Xbox

http://i.imgur.com/4d49Llq.jpg

If things continue at this rate, the future Xbox will become the biggest failure in the history of Microsoft. Besides having a better processor, more RAM and some other goodies, the console will come with a feature that locks used video games, which has not been well received by many.

It has been reported that with the Xbox Kinect will be released one improved, but apparently will be included with every new Xbox, so its price could reach more than expected rise. The Kinect is no longer optional, but absolutely essential if we buy to the future in an authorized console. Besides this, you must be connected and configured to operate the console.

Regarding control (control) will be similar to the Xbox 360, but will incorporate a new wireless technology.

Did I mention the mandatory hard drive? So, every future Xbox will include with it a 500GB disk where the games would be installed apparently. This may also keep any relation with the locking system used game.

Leaving all that aside, there is good news: the console can run several games at once, meaning that we can pause and start playing one another and then we resume paused. No doubt this feature would be more than welcome.

The presentation of the future is expected Xbox for E3 2013.
