Hahaha.

Future consoles will be getting some form of RyZen, which will be a huge CPU boost over Jaguar, even if the core count and clock speed remained the same.

A much better CPU is the first order of business for games to get much better physics, more destructible and dynamic game worlds, and overall new gameplay possibilities not yet achieved.

Happy her team lost.

It's so not about whether she's ugly or not.

It's about the sheer treachery on her part and that of her family, which would have been massively enabled by Hillary, had she won.

I know, but those very things became apparent during E3 2011 and E3 2012.

I would add.

3. Terrible communication

4. High price at retail that never came down.

NintendoLand had some great ideas, and yes, looks great on paper but it really wasn't much fun and poorly executed. It was no Wii Sports.

While Hillary Clinton loyal aide Huma Abedin was reportedly sidelined in the final stretch of the 2016 presidential campaign as a result of Abedin’s husband’s child-porn scandal, she was potentially an even greater liability than known. It turns out Anthony Weiner wasn’t the only family member under investigation.

In fact, the U.S. Justice Department has been actively prosecuting two other Abedin family members – for conspiracy, wire fraud and securities fraud – and she along with the State Department, where she previously worked for Clinton, are mentioned in the federal case, court records show.

Other documents reveal the same allegedly crooked kin solicited Abedin for help at State in a deal that netted more than $1.2 million in federal grants.

These undesirable family connections, revealed here for the first time, raise fresh questions about influence peddling at the State Department under Clinton, who is now reportedly working with Abedin on a political comeback.

Abedin’s relatives were major donors to the Clinton Foundation. And Abedin drew a salary from the Clinton Foundation, while at the same time working for the government.

Records show that her first cousin, Omar Amanat, is under federal indictment for cheating investors in Kit Digital Inc. of millions of dollars between 2009 and 2012, forcing the tech start-up to go bankrupt in 2013. He has been placed under house arrest as he awaits trial, which is scheduled for Oct. 2.

Another Abedin cousin, Irfan Amanat, is under indictment in the same case. He was arrested in December after returning to the U.S. from the United Arab Emirates.

Prosecutors say Omar Amanat illegally diverted millions of dollars from investments in Kit Digital “for his personal use,” including “luxury properties in Manhattan.” He “never disclosed these misappropriations to investors,” who were misled about the value of the company by false balance sheets. He has pleaded not guilty.

Recent letters, Part 1 and Part 2 here, from attorneys for Omar and another co-defendant asking the judge to ease their detention reveal that Omar once warned Huma while she was at the State Department that she and other family members were under threat of being “hurt” by “special collection agents” trying to recover stolen funds. Court exhibits reveal that Omar was worried about Huma’s safety and contacted the State Department to make her “aware of this incident.”

Moreover, Kit Digital appears in State Department emails sent to Abedin from Amanat and a business partner. In June 2009, not long after starting Kit Digital and just months after his cousin was named deputy chief of staff to Secretary of State Clinton, Amanat helped his business partner solicit Abedin for State favors on behalf of Soliya Inc., which was in partnership with Kit Digital. Summit Entertainment, a film company Amanat held a controlling stake in at the time, also stood to benefit.

That's one treasonous bitch.

Edit:

So who is Huma Abedin ?

Not that this alone caused Wii U to fail, but probably contributed to that, at least to an extent.

That is, the Wii U was shown at E3 two years in a row, before it ever launched, and both of those E3 showings were negative in how Wii U was perceived by most people, from those inside the games industry and gamers alike.

E3 2011 where it was so badly revealed, causing the initial confusion over what it was (a new controller for the Wii ???) And that stupid, stupid name.

Then, E3 2012 where launch details were given and actual games were shown including the awkward Nintendo Land. Other than the Pikmin 3 reveal, E3 2012 was pretty bad for Wii U.

Contrast that with the Nintendo Switch selling very, very well so far, without ever having had a public showing at E3. Nintendo was pretty smart in that way, because most of their E3 presentations come off really badly. Last year, Nintendo's E3 presence was entirely Zelda: Breath of the Wild (ironically for the Wii U) and that payed off for the launch of Switch this past March.

Having back to back E3 showings of Wii U that were both pretty terrible before the system was even released certainly did Wii U no favors. Your thoughts?

Resogun on PS4 Pro is not actually a native 4K (3840x2160). It actually does use checkerboard rendering.

While the end result is just about as good as native 4K, it's not technically native 4K.

http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/digitalfoundry-2017-how-housemarque-engineered-a-4k-resogun-for-ps4-pro

If you own a PlayStation 4 Pro console and you've not added Resogun to your collection, you're missing out on one of the best showcase titles available for the system. Developer Housemarque has delivered a brilliant 4K presentation and vibrant HDR, while retaining a locked 60fps during gameplay. It's the same Resogun gameplay we've loved since launch, but beautifully retooled for the new generation of ultra HD displays. Essentially, it delivers the full promise of the Pro hardware where so many titles have come up just a little short.

It also scores big points in delivering what pixel-counts and extreme screenshot zooms seem to confirm as a native 4K presentation. Only it isn't. Housemarque uses a blend of techniques to deliver an ultra HD framebuffer that looks as good as the real thing - and the precision of it certainly had us convinced that it was the real thing.

"If by native 4K you mean 3840x2160 frame buffer - yes, that is the case. We used PS4 Pro's checkerboard rendering," explains Housemarque's engine architect, Seppo Halonen. "It was the second approach we tried and everything seemed to run fine with it so there was no need to try anything more after that. On top of this, there is our ultimate post-processing pass that is done at full 4K that processes enemy outlines and chroma split and a little bit extra on top of that, giving the game that final look."

One of the reasons we approached Housemarque about the PS4 Pro patch for Resogun is simply because the results we were seeing here were so good that we had to find out just how they managed to do it. Based on the incorrect assumption that Resogun was resolving a native presentation, Housemarque had somehow delivered the same performance with 4x the pixel count on a machine that is 'only' around twice as fast as the standard PS4. The maths didn't add up, and even with the revelation that the developer is using a checkerboard solution,
