Michael Pachter is a “popular” analyst and has been known for voicing strong opinions and predictions when it comes to video games and gaming hardware. He has recently said over Twitter that the Xbox One X will sell over 2 million units, and surpass PS4 Pro sales. He had also recently said that Microsoft has been overblowing Xbox One X pre-order numbers, and called them out by saying this: “On that topic, Xbox One X is ranked on Amazon in the pre-orders a year to date, last I looked number 66”, he “I believe the NES Classic was at number 23. It sold 2.3 million units lifetime, and you know that the bulk of those units were sold last year, so this year maybe a million, so if Xbox One X is ranked 48th bellow that, it`s not even close to a million, and of course the Amazon allocat...

With the Xbox One X about to release in just a few months, many of you might be wondering if it will be worth buying. Many are confused how to choose between the PS4 Pro, The Xbox One X or if they should just buy a new PC. If it were between the Xbox One X and the PC, then the answer is rather simple – just get a PC, since all Xbox One exclusives will also be available on the PC. However, choosing between the PS4 Pro and the Xbox One X can be tricky, and here’s why we feel that ultimately the PS4/PS4 Pro is the better choice. Exclusive Games There’s no denying that the PS4 has a much larger library of games, specially when it comes to great exclusives. Just look at the image below: PS4 exclusives vastly outnumber Xbox One exclusives, and they’ve got more exciting ga...
Any Xbox One owner knows how bad the situation is for them when it comes to exclusives. Sony has some of the best games of 2017 exclusively on the Playstation 4, and the Switch already has more exclusives this year than the last two years combined for the Xbox One. Things are looking bad indeed for Microsoft, specially with the launch of the Xbox One X getting rapidly closer. Crackdown 3 has also been delayed till next year, and the console is truly starved for exclusives. It an attempt to put a positive spin on the situation, Microsoft has had to make some rather wild claims at Gamescom this year, saying that “People pick Xbox because we have the biggest franchises, the biggest exclusives”. Here’s what Aaron Greenberg had to say: “People pick Xbox because we have the big...

Xbox One X, the upcoming powerhouse from Microsoft is going to be released later this year. Then it will become the most powerful console in the market. In a recent interview with Tom Wimbush, Lead Designer of Fable Fortune. He said- “Unlike in a desktop PC the Xbox One and Xbox One X enjoy a shared memory architecture,” he said. “This means the memory can be divided between the CPU and GPU as the developers need. When bringing the title to Ultra HD resolutions [on Xbox One X] we’ll need the increased memory on the GPU in order to make room for higher resolution textures for crystal clear images.” Xbox One X is able to out perform other consoles and Mid Range PCs with it’s 9gb RAM, of which developers have access to. Xbox One X has a total ram of 12gb pf gddr5 ram. Further in the in...
With the Xbox One X launch right around the corner, it’s kinda hard not to be excited. It’s also hard not to wonder about whether the console is more powerful than your current gaming rig. So, here’s a small build that we came up with, something that may be able to compare with the upcoming console’s performance. Keeping in mind that the target performance is aimed at 4K @ 30 FPS, and assuming that the Xbox One X will cost close to INR 50,000 in India at launch, this is what we came up with. Note that the build makes a lot of sacrifices, and is mainly made with aim to get the job done, nothing too fancy.
