Kusele okuncane kakhulu ukwazi ukuthi yini aphethe ngesandla Microsoft sibhekene nesizukulwane esisha esiseduze. Ekupheleni kukaJanuwari sikwazile ukuthola ukuthi u-Sony uthatha muphi umkhombandlela yize kusenemibuzo eminingi evulekile nge-Playstation 4 manje sekuyisikhathi salabo Redmond ngaphezu kwakho konke, ukuqeda amahemuhemu angapheli mayelana nekhonsoli yakho entsha nezinqubomgomo ezihlobene nayo.
Kuzoba yi 21 ngoMeyi lapho sizoqala ukwazi okwengeziwe ngempi elandelayo yekhonsoli. Sicabanga ukuthi le ngqungquthela izofana neyakwaSony ngokomqondo, igxile kakhulu kwifilosofi nendlela yenkampani enale hardware entsha yize, ngokunengqondo, sizobona okuthile kusuka kukhathalogi ye-console (sekukhona Gameplay iqinisekisiwe nge-CoD: Izipoki, ngokwesibonelo) kepha ukushuba kwalesi sigaba kuzokwaziwa ku-E3.
Yize kunamahlebezi angenhla, akhona imfihlo eningi ezungeze i-Xbox elandelayo. Ngokwami nangemva kokuphela kwesizukulwane se-Xbox 360, kunzima ukuthi le phrojekthi ingijabulise njengoba kwenza owandulelayo, ngokomthetho. Ngaphandle kwalokhu, noma singafuni ukukhohlisa kulomhlaba, uhlala ukhona, ngakho-ke nangu uhlu lwakho lwesifiso mayelana nephrojekthi entsha ye-Microsoft kanye nengqungquthela yangomhlaka-21 Meyi.
Kubukeka sengathi, ngandlela thile, iDurango (igama eliyisisekelo leprojekthi) izodinga ukuthi ixhunywe kwi-inthanethi yize, ngokusho kwamahemuhemu wakamuva, lokhu kungeke kuhlanganise izindlela ze-DRM nezokulwa nobugebengu njengobudlwangudlwangu njengoba kungabonakala ekuqaleni. Futhi, siyacabanga, kuzoba nohlobo oluthile lwe "imodi engaxhunyiwe ku-inthanethi" ongajabulela ngayo imidlalo yize ungaxhunyiwe. Yiba ngangokunokwenzeka, Ukwethulwa kwekhonsoli emakethe engadlalwa ngaphandle kokuxhumeka kwe-inthanethi kubukeke njengokuzibulala kwezebhizinisi kuleli phuzu. Ngiyethemba ukuthi, njengoba ngisho, bahlala bekhumbula ukuthi ukuxhumana okunamandla nokuzinzile kwamazwe athile akusakazekile nokuthi kabanamandla kangako kulokhu.
Ngaphandle kokungabaza, enye yezinto eziphikisanayo kakhulu ezihlobene nekhonsoli entsha kanye ne-Xbox 360 ukubaluleka okunikezwe kukho Kinect. Okuqale njengomzamo wokufinyelela izethameli eziningi ngokulingisa ezombusazwe ze-Wii, yagcina isisindisile ikhathalogu i-classic console ethatha njengesibonelo esicacile kule minyaka emithathu edlule. Ngokwamahlebezi UKUQHAZA Kungenzeka kusebenze isihloko seKinect futhi akuyona into engeyakho ngokwayo kude nayo. Kungaba njalo, futhi ngiyethemba ngeke, uma ukukhathalela uKinect kuphenduke indelelo yemidlalo «hardcore".
Okufanayo kuye kwenzeka kubo bonke okuqukethwe kwe-multimedia okunikelwe yi-Xbox 360, efisa ukuba yisikhungo sokuzijabulisa sanoma yiliphi ikhaya, ikakhulukazi eNyakatho Melika. Abaningi bafuna i-Playstation 4 ne-Xbox entsha ukuthi ifike ngenxa yemidlalo emisha nokuziphendukela kwayo, hhayi ngoba bebona uchungechunge noma balalele i-albhamu kaJustin Bieber yakamuva, isibonelo. Futhi angikhulumi ngeMicrosoft eshiya eceleni lolu hlobo lokuqukethwe, kepha kungaba kuhle uma beqhubeka nakho umqondo we-Xbox njengekhonsoli lapho ungathola futhi ezinye izinhlobo zokuqukethwe hhayi isikhungo semultimedia lapho, uma ufuna, ungadlala okuthile.
Ngakolunye uhlangothi nangaphambi kokuba sifike emidlalweni, ngicabanga ukuthi iMicrosoft kufanele ukuhlela kabusha uhlelo lokubhala phansi. Kumele siqale ngesisekelo sokuthi bazoqhubeka nokukhokhisa njengoba ingxenye enkulu yemali yabo ivela kubabhalisile ku-Xbox Live Gold yize lokhu kubonakala sengathi kuyaphambana ngalesi sikhathi. Iqiniso ukuthi nge-Playstation, insizakalo yayo ye-Plus kanye ne-Ps4 leyo, i-priori, ezonikela ngengqalasizinda eku-inthanethi neyokuxhumana efana ne-Durango, kufanele kunikezwe okusha okusha okuvuma ukuqoqwa kwemali yenyanga. Mhlawumbe imidlalo ngesitayela esimsulwa se-Sony, ama-DLC amahhala noma izinto ezinjengalezo. Noma, kungenzeka, zombili lesi sihloko nosuku lokukhishwa nentengo kubekelwe i-E3.
Futhi, ngokunengqondo, enye yezingxenye ezibaluleke kakhulu kuzoba yi imidlalo. Kulesi sigaba, kulula njengokungazitholi nge-Halo noma amaGiya eMpi angamakhulu ayisishiyagalombili kuleli qophelo. Okokuqala, kusekhona, okungenani, okubili okuzayo kanye ne-saga eyenziwe yi-Epic angazi noma sisazophinde sibonise ukulethwa okuthile, kepha sithemba ukuthola i-IP entsha. Ngokwami, ngiyafisa ukubona ukuthi uRyse uguquke kanjani, iphrojekthi yeCrytek eyazalwa njengomdlalo "wabantu abadala" weKinect kodwa, ngokusho kwamahemuhemu, osetshenziselwe ukulawulwa okudala. Yebo, lowo "mdlalo omusha we-franchise" owenziwa yiBlack Tusk Studios nawo ungihlaba umxhwele.
Futhi, khumbula ukuthi sizobona i- okokuqala Gameplay kusukela ku-Call of Duty entsha: Izipoki kuphela. Ngabe i-next-gen Call of Duty izobukeka kanjani? Ngemuva kweminyaka eyisikhombisa nenjini efanayo yemidwebo, kuzoba yinto engavamile ukubona ukweqa okunjalo kobuchwepheshe. Akudingeki ukuthi, ezinye izinhlobo ezinhlobonhlobo zingahle zamukeleke; yazi ukuthi le midlalo emithathu eqanjiwe izoba yimidlalo yesenzo kumuntu wokuqala (ngaphandle kokumangala) ngawo enye ipulatifomu noma ukwethula i-RPG kungaba ngaphezulu kokwamukelwa.
Ukuqedela lolu hlu lwezifisoAsethembe ukuthi iMicrosoft ayisiniki umbukiso othusayo njengezinkulumo zakhe zokugcina emicimbini emikhulu lapho kungaphezu kwenkampani yemidlalo yevidiyo bekubonakala njengenkampani enhlobonhlobo enemidlalo yosaziwayo, imindeni edlala izimo, njll. Noma kunjalo, ngaphansi kwamasonto amabili ukuhlangana nomncintiswano omusha we-gen-gen elandelayo.
