Microsoft Shares New Info On The New Xbox

after Sony informed that the new Playstation arrives soon, it’s Microsoft turn to share some new details about their gaming console.

The Xbox Series X will arrive in the holidays (along with the PlayStation), but until then, both companies revealed new info –

Extremely High Performances –

Microsoft shared the full specs of the Series X –

Zen 2 processor with 8 cores @ 3.8 GHz, RDNA 2-class graphic engine, 16 giga RAM and 1TB SSD of storage.

This machine will cast games at 4K @ 60 FPS, up to 120 FPS and will support the RayTracing technology that present light effects for more realistic pictures.

The usage of SSD hard-drive is one of the main reasons that the console’s performances at the demo – 40 second difference in loading time between Xbox One and Series X.

Microsoft shared a new feature called Xbox Velocity Architecture which combine hardware and software architecture and allows games to get the resources they need fast. Now developers can skip long cut scenes to load the next chapter of the game.

The controller is going to change as well – the controllers will fit the hand of an 8-year-old but it won’t worsen the gaming experience of someone with big hands. The controllers will be charged with USB type C.

We will be able to expand the memory of the console. Don’t get to excited because these special hard drives will cost about $200, so we will have to be very careful about it.

Sansa, Thank you for teaching me resilience, bravery and what true strength really is. Thank you teaching me to be kind and patient and to lead with love. I grew up with you. I fell in love with you at 13 and now 10 years on.. at 23 I leave you behind, but I will never leave behind what you’ve taught me. To the show and the incredible people who make it, thank you for giving me the best life and drama lessons I could have ever asked for. Without you I wouldn’t be the person I am today. Thank you for giving me this chance all those years ago. And finally to the fans. Thank you for falling in love with these characters and supporting this show right through till the end. I’ll miss this more than anything.

Finding the words to write this post has left me overwhelmed with how much I want to say but how small words feel in comparison to what this show and Dany have meant to me. The mother of dragons chapter has taken up the whole of my adult life. This woman has taken up the whole of my heart. I’ve sweated in the blaze of dragon fire, shed many tears at those who left our family early, and wrung my brain dry trying to do Khaleesi and the masterful words, actions (and names) I was given, justice. Game of Thrones has shaped me as a woman, as an actor and as a human being. I just wish my darling dad was here now to see how far we’ve flown. But to you, dear kind magical fans, I owe you so much thanks, for your steady gaze at what we’ve made and what I’ve done with a character that was already in the hearts of many before I slipped on the platinum wig of dreams. Without you there is no us. And now our watch has ended. @gameofthrones @hbo #love #motherofdragonsoverandout

Would You Like a Cup of Coffee?

Many fans noticed something unusual happens during episode 4 of the show Game of Thrones. It probably happened due to an editing error – approximately 17 min from the start of the 4th episode, called “The Last of the Starks”, a coffee cup is shown on the desk during the dinner party in in Winterfell.

We got a shot at the cup when Tromund is praising his friend Jon Snow after winning the Battle of Winterfell against the Night King.

Social media exploded after few fans noticed it. The is assumed to be connected to the well known company Starbucks but it might not.

Some of the Twitter Posts –

Marvel did something unusual

Marvel didn’t put a scene after the credits in the new movie – Avengers:Endgame.

No spoilers here, so relax!

Everyone who watched few Marvel movies knows that he shouldn’t leave the theater before the post credit scene. There are some memorable ones like the Avengers eating Shawarma, the Gradians of the Galaxy meets baby Groot and more.

But in Marvel’s new movie, there is no post credit scene… Pretty shocking right?

Marvel’s fan will be sad to know that after 22 films, for the first time, they can leave the theater once the movie is over.

A guy named Daniel Richtman, leaked the sad news on twitter –
