The Possibilities of iPhone Multi-Screen Capability

The idea of using an iPhone with multiple screens is definitely something that could be explored and utilized. It's reminiscent of the Wii U, where having multiple screens allowed for various interactive experiences. With the advancements in technology, it would be exciting to see Apple incorporate a similar feature into their iPhones. By utilizing AirPlay or a similar technology, users could stream content from their iPhone to other devices, such as game consoles, creating a seamless and immersive experience.

The Xbox One's Lack of Backwards Compatibility

One of the notable omissions in the Xbox One is its lack of backwards compatibility with 360 games. The reason for this is simple: the hardware isn't compatible. When there are new console generations, it can be challenging to upgrade existing games without significant changes to the hardware. This was seen in the transition from the GameCube to the Wii, where the Wii was able to play all GameCube games with ease. However, most of the time, when a new architecture is introduced, backwards compatibility requires building in specialized chips or multiple chips that can specifically run older games.

The Original PS3's Accomplishment

The original fat models of the PS3 were able to play PS2 games due to the inclusion of specific chips that could handle these older titles. While this was an impressive feat, it came at a cost: the consoles needed to be more expensive and bulkier. Microsoft and Sony likely didn't consider backwards compatibility to be a significant enough issue to warrant such an expense.

The Nvidia Shield's Features and Price Point

Nvidia's Shield is an interesting device that has garnered attention due to its features and price point. A couple of weeks ago, at E3, I had the chance to try out the final version of the Shield, and I was pleasantly surprised by how good the controls felt. The controller itself was a bit larger than what I expected, but it still managed to feel very similar to an Xbox 360 controller.

The price point has recently been reduced from $350 to $300, which is still on the higher side considering the device's specs. However, with the Shield running Android and having a nice screen, it does offer some attractive features, such as being able to play games and emulators, stream PC games over to it using an Nvidia graphics card, making it an interesting option for those looking into gaming devices.

The Future of Intel Processors in Mobile Devices

Intel is already working on developing processors that can be used in smaller form factors like 7-inch tablets and phones. They have already released Atom processors that are capable of running at high speeds and powering a wide range of mobile devices. With further development, it's likely that we'll see similar performance levels to those found in laptops being achieved in our smartphones and tablets.

The Author's Current Situation

I'm currently in the midst of moving and don't have a fixed location yet. Once I get my new place organized and set up, I plan on doing a room tour or office tour for you guys. It may take some time to get everything sorted out, but I'm looking forward to sharing it with you once it's all complete.

WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enhey guys this is Austin and today I'm here with ask me episode 4 so if you guys have never seen this before this is where I answer all kinds of questions from you guys whether it's on Twitter Facebook Google+ or here on YouTube so let's jump right on in ask me number four how I do my hair okay I'll admit it's a little bit big right now I've got to get a haircut but seriously this is a big improvement over my last hair and it's an even bigger improvement over the hair I had uh before that um so um yeah but I will definitely have Austin's hairstyle tips coming up soon I'll do an entire video on how I no I won't I I won't don't don't don't look for that it won't happen probably do we see the better graphics performance from the PlayStation 4 against Xbox One and third party titles that'll be really interesting to see so overall yes I do think so now if you guys aren't familiar both the Xbox one and PlayStation 4 have very similar Hardware inside the big difference is that the PlayStation 4 has about 50% more on the graphic side which is actually a very significant amount now generally speaking even though the PlayStation 4 will be more powerful I would expect a lot of games to look pretty much the exact same just because if you're a developer and you're making for both consoles it's not really going to be worth your time to spend a lot of extra money and a lot of extra developers and everything making one version of it look better than the other when no one really cares that much however I do think that some games especially the exclusive games that are made by Sony should actually look significantly better not you know any kind of insane amount but you 50% more power is quite a bit so I do think that some games not all of them will look quite a bit better on the PlayStation 4 how would you feel if Apple entered the gaming console world could they pull it off that's an interesting point Apple pretty much already has everything they need to make a game console so they have the App Store where there are tons of games already and I'm sure if they made it simple they could pretty much Port all of these over to any kind of future console they wanted they have tons of people with iPhones and iPods and iPads they have the Apple TV and they have AirPlay so that you can already play games from your iPhone over to your Apple TV which would then go on the big screen so they pretty much have all the you know the the whole recipes already there for making themselves a game console now will they do it I don't know but if they wanted to they definitely could be successful in my opinion I mean you make some games with you know you can use with your iPhone kind of like the Wii U where you have multiple screens and then you use something like air playay to stream it over to like a game console there's definitely a lot of cool stuff that Apple could do if they were interested am I awesome trick question of course I am haha but you awesome too uh uh the answer is yes I think why do you think the Xbox one is not letting you reuse 360 games the reason there's no backwards compatibility with the Xbox One or PlayStation 4 is simply because the hardware isn't compatible so sometimes when there's a new console generation it's really simple to upgrade for example when we went from the GameCube to the Wii the Wii was able to play all kinds of GameCube games with no problem however most of the time when there's a new architecture like there is this generation pretty much the only way to do that is to actually build in a physical chip or in this case multiple chips that would actually be able to run Xbox 360 games or PlayStation 3 games into the new consoles now that's what happened with the original PS3 the how some of the original fat models could actually play PS2 games and that was great but it was also expensive as they had to build the extra chips in there which would specifically just be able to run PS2 games and if they did that in this generation Not only would it add a lot of cost but it would add a little bit of bulk to the consoles in general I don't think that Microsoft or Sony really thought it was a big enough deal to make you have to pay like an extra $100 just so you could play Ultra games well most people probably already have an Xbox 360 or PS3 hanging around anyway what is your opinion about the Nvidia shield and its features and price point I'm looking forward to the shield so a couple weeks ago at E3 I was able to try the final version of it and I was actually impressed with how good the controls were I mean something like this I really wasn't expecting a whole lot like yeah sure it's got a couple of sticks a couple buttons whatever but it actually felt very similar to an Xbox 360 controller which is definitely too big thumbs up in my book now as far as the price um they recently did actually cut the price some so before it was going to be to $350 now they recently cut it down to3 00 um I still think 300 is a little bit much but considering the fact that it is running Android it does have a nice screen so you're going to be able to play games and emulators and you're also going to be able to stream PC games over to it if you have an Nvidia graphics card I think it'll definitely be an interesting thing and I definitely can't wait to check it out when do you think we will see Intel core I3 or I5 processors coming in form factors like 7in tablets and phones Intel is already working on this they already have atom processors and both phones and tablets which are already really fast but give them a few more years and I don't think it'll be any kind of stretch whatsoever to see the same level performance we have on laptops today be on our phones and tablets room tour I'm in the middle of moving right now but once I get the new place all set up and have a new place to film and have the office all organized it's never going to be organized but once I get it all you know kind of set up I'll definitely be doing a room tour or an office tour for you guys just keep in mind it'll probably be a little while before I actually get it all set up cuz uh it it takes a while and I'm lazy but yeah mostly the lazy thing anyway that's about it if you guys have any questions for next time feel free to drop them over on Twitter Facebook or Google+ and all those links will be in the description of this video as well as you can also leave comments on this video and who knows you might be in the next episode of ask me if you're interested in more feel free to check out my video where I went over virtual reality gaming if you enjoyed definitely be sure to leave this video a thumbs up and subscribe for more like this anyway guys I will catch you next timehey guys this is Austin and today I'm here with ask me episode 4 so if you guys have never seen this before this is where I answer all kinds of questions from you guys whether it's
