XboxEra Community Hangout |OT5| Season of the Infinite.. Arguments

So just for the optics? Thats Activision’s problem and xbox nor Sony have anything to do there other than voice their displeasure at most. They wont harm the offerings on their platform because they dont have to.

There is also that with Blizzard :

Credit to Jim Ryan for speaking out. He may be an exploitative suit, but at least he draws the line somewhere.

I have nothing against Mike but At the same time Im kinda glad (?) He isnt at xbox anymore lol.

Wasn’t he salty he didn’t get Phil’s job?

Hope months from now this doesn’t turn out being another Jim Ryan Lies…

It’s tricky because action would speak louder if they pull out of marketing COD games until this is fixed. However, I could see other side that Sony doesn’t like seeing their name in marketing with Activision since it’s negative side of marketing the company. Anyways, still have to give props to Jim for speaking about it because better than saying nothing and letting it slide

Turns out that my excitement for Dolby Vision earlier this year with games like Psychonauts 2 and Destroy all Humans was just placebo really.

Been trying both HDR10 and DV a lot yesterday, checked several games including those and I don’t see a difference at all. Back then when I tested DV for the first time I didn’t go back to HDR10, but had I done that I would have come to a different conclusion.

In fact, I find HDR10 better in FH5 than DV, that is one game where I do see the difference. Colours seem slightly more muted with DV.

Not only are they just purely horrible, they don’t even have basic common sense here.

Kinda awkward that this guy and the coalition studio head left xbox when it was in a struggling state just to eventually find themselves in this sinking ship called Blizzard

This might sound like a silly question: Backwards Compatible games I buy digitally on a 360 should still pop up on my account when playing on a One, right? I ask because the only way I can snag Revenge of the Sith is through the old marketplace and I want to use a gift card and not my debit card.

Yeah
