I'm sure they appreciated your 10 seconds of effort though.I don't blame them. I also brag about being the "fastest ever" to my girlfriends.
They, however, never seem to be as excited about it as I am.

Me, looking at all those Nvidia x86 APUs avaliable for sale out there:Bring Nvidia back you cowards
But Microsoft is a software company and AMD has/can add dedicated ML hardware to their GPUs, there's nothing stopping MS from having a comparable or better solutions.Pound for pound you’re going to deliver a lot better framerates and IQ with DLSS than any AMD-based setup. FSR3 is barely as good as DLSS 2 let alone DLAA and frame-gen capabilities of DLSS3.
If they want to swing hardware back in their favor and make Sony sweat going back to nVidia is their only choice.
but they won’t
The Surface team has been terrible last several years. They have been packaging outdated hardware into outdated chassis design for overpriced amount of money.Does the surface team has a good track record on making hardware that anyone cares about?
Again, if you have to deal with Surfaces devices, especially in the Enterprise, they are not great by any means.
Would cost $1000+ and have problem with backwards compatibility.Pound for pound you’re going to deliver a lot better framerates and IQ with DLSS than any AMD-based setup. FSR3 is barely as good as DLSS 2 let alone DLAA and frame-gen capabilities of DLSS3.

Xbox OS Updates have been lackluster since they started the monthly updates.Yeah. Still waiting for that Achievement update Jason
Achievements "top of mind for us as we look to the road ahead," says Xbox's Jason Ronald
Xbox director of program management, Jason Ronald, recently spoke on the Iron Lords Podcast about the last 20 years of Xbox, the most notable of which was Game DVR and the achievement system.www.trueachievements.com
Nintendo are soon going to have another hour long meeting laughing at Xbox, aren't they?
Seems like he did lead design for both systems.
If so, he did not only fuck up on specs, he also kinda messed up not making them cost-savy enough, the X is very overbuilt and has a split board layout (which is expensive).
Every experience I've had with a Surface has been awful. They are shitty pieces of hardware that have nonstop issues.
The hardware is one part. Ms hasn’t delivered on the games front. And most probably Ronald had a more balanced machine in the original design. But uncle Phil must have asked him to make it cheaper to try to have an edge on the price vs Ps5. If the games were there nobody would have care. Look at the switch.
Honestly this is one of the takes on Xbox that I understand the least. The team that did the Series S/X had extreme limitations on it made by Xbox management. Because of the 360 red ring of death, they could not push termals as much as they would want. Because of the Xbox One failure, they had to find a way to make sure that their console would be superior to the PS5, while being not too costly and with limited time and ressources, as they had to do the One X before it, and did not have the same clear vision, mandate and freedom and experience that Sony got. They had to make the platform that will become the Series S and X also work as a base for Xcloud. On top of all that, they had to do 2 consoles AND find a way to have it work with the next Direct X(direct storage and maybe RT) implementation while another team was writing the specifications of it at Microsoft. Joker: give it some abilities beyong AMD standard specs with VRR/HDMI 2.1 implementation(before the standard is set again) and whatever they mean by machine learning and Sampler Feedback Streaming. We can be happy that Sony got smart with the PS5, and specifically the digital edition, a real masterclass IMHO as it will be the base model in the future. But I really think that the Xbox team that designed the Series S/X got fucked over by Xbox management.
"We've got the guys behind the most powerful and most succesful playstation console"Secretly, they’ve hired Mark Cerny for the next Xbox design.
Xbox OS Updates have been lackluster since they started the monthly updates.
You mean the operating systems and their apps? I think the OS of both consoles have literally only one core assigned to them, while games have the rest. The Xbox dashboard is sluggish as fuck if you do more than slowly and carefully working your way around it.Series S is the best designed media console I have owned due to amazing UI, commendable compatibility, and great price to performance ratio. Still do not know what Sony was thinking with their Alienware modem and sluggish UI. Not a fan of the mini-PC tower Series X design ever. It is also embarrassing how poor the PS5 and Series X run software compared to mid-range PCs from a decade ago.
Yup, they do that magic math.It was the "fastest selling ever" for like two months or something.....
MS usually likes to brag about "fastest ever" stuff to hide everything else
I am curious, what does this guy get from these shitty "insider leaks"? Is it just attention or has he monetized it?Why wasn't this the first reply.
Magic Math, ahh takes you back.Yup, they do that magic math.
Did it with Xbox One launch, fastest selling console, which sold 909k in 9 days. PS4 did a million in 24 hours.

Not for me. I can get to anything in a few button presses and I have everything grouped in a way that makes it hassle-free. After startup it takes me on average 3 seconds to boot what I want unless the application itself has a UI to navigate.You mean the operating systems and their apps?

The good old days, when that MS guy came on here and straight up lied to us. That clown, forgot his name... "We invented DirectX" guy.Magic Math, ahh takes you back.
Microsoft needs to get more flak for misrepresenting the Xbox One S.
Edit: A lot of people are saying that this is Xbox One + PSU vs Xbox One S. This is still misleading. So we are saying that the larger outlining box is supposed to represent the difference in volume between Xbox One + PSU and Xbox One S and that difference is a 40% smaller volume? I measured...www.neogaf.com
Started the whole ‘flak’ ridicule thing by cultists too.

He meant graphics. Did you see Infamous:Second Son? I have seen Infamous... it looks next gen, but so does Ryse visually, and to some people even more so than Infamous which looks good, but at no point does anyone feel like Infamous makes Ryse look a league apart, both are serious eye candy...www.neogaf.com
We know they will call it something stupid, like Xbox Screeny, Xbox Handsy, Xbox Series P(ortable)So the next gen xbox will be the Surface Xbox
My surface book 2 is the most finicky laptop I've ever owned, but with its crisp screen and GTX 1060 it was a pretty good gaming laptop for its time.
That's Microsoft trying to pretend to compete with the MacBook Pro. I don't know why anyone would buy the studio line. You can get a laptop with an i7 and a 4060 for less than half of what a studio machine costs.Just for funsies I loaded up their website and went through their questionnaire so they could pick out a model for me. They picked up a Surfsce Laptop Studio 2 (thsts a fuckin name. Not a good one. But it is a name). They want like $3k for an i7 and a 4060.
Why wasn't this the first reply.
They're making a Steam Deck / Switch like console.
If they actually think competing with Steam or Nintendo (in handhelds) is going to be any easier than competing with PlayStation (in consoles) they are in for a HUGE reality check.They're making a Steam Deck / Switch like console.
cuz you want to believeThis could be awesome news. Surface team are pretty bonkers with design but no idea how it could be built on a budget. Also, why am I putting in any weight into rumours by this lot?
Didn't they design the one x?Does the surface team has a good track record on making hardware that anyone cares about?
