Supposedly it'll run Windows 8, have full 3d capability, BluRay, DirectX 11, DVR Support and be 6 to 8 times more powerful then the current Xbox 360. When a "leaked" document was released they were planning to "use six to eight 2GHz ARM/x86 cores, with two additional ARM/x86 cores that would power the console’s operating system."

The GPU being copied from ATI’s Radeon HD 6670.

Thanks for the link Chessie.

Handy info in there - I notice its including ATI’s Radeon HD 6670 GPU, I have a 6770 currently in my system, I've had it for a year and found it great at 1st with getting all my 2012 features running at last :) I'm finding it an acceptable card nowadays but its already starting to show its age and I'm already considering what my next card will be.

Is putting an older graphics chip in a next gen console wise or is this a completely different chip-set architecture from the one I'm thinking of?

They'll likely make RW4, aka: TS-2013 official.

Everything is different with consoles. Microsoft (Xbox 360), Sony (PS3), and Nintendo (Wii) have to produce everything in house. It's not like a PC where we can pick and choose the best from different companies. While the 6770 is somewhat dated now in the world of PC gaming. It's nearly top of the line for a console.

Well that's true, but one would hope that they'd also have some new features that hasn't been unveiled yet that's going to be a part of RW4.

It will most likely be something that is very game breaking...oops I mean ground breaking!

In all seriousness though, I think it may be something like multiplayer, but I hope I am wrong. I don't feel that the game is optimized enough for this to be feasable.

Great photoshop work

Who knows, maybe it's not photoshop!

[arizonachris]

Oh, come on, it's got 7 headlights! OK, could be glare, I suppose.

[SCLJim]

Wait, that screenie is an actual teaser they released?

[PapaXpress]

I can tell you that as of yesterday they are still working on the route.

I was responding to SCLJim.

[BNSF650]

The headlights are still wrong.. why is there three now

[Chessie8638]

New FRA mandate so it's accurate.




It's called photoshop (and a bad example).
