A bit of a mixup (Score: 2, Informative) by mth@pipedot.org on 2014-07-18 15:27 (#2JD) XBox Entertainment Studios had a short life. It was announced only a year ago, but design decisions led to poor reviews. Among its weaknesses, the software was bloated and slow, and Microsoft not only hobbled it with DDR3 memory but also needlessly restricted the games to using only 6 of the 8 cores.You're mixing up the XBone and the studios here...

This will not affect the games.

If the console was as good as it should of been, perhaps the studio would actually have something to do with it.Ok, all honesty, one too many beers that night.
