Lorne @ Xbox Achievements - Performance Gap Between Xbox One and PS4 Will Disappear
 

Lorne touched the following subjects:

- How performance gap between Xbox One and PS4 will disappear.
- The fact he's still in talks with Microsoft to bring NnT to Xbox One as part of the ID@Xbox program.
- Should he be successful, he doesn't believe there will be any noticeable differences in performance between the different console versions.

The full thing is at the link below and apparently we can expect more from Xbox Achievements: a full interview with Lorne Lanning coming up soon, in which they discuss everything from his difficult relationship with Microsoft to his plans for the future of Oddworld.

I don't get why Microsoft are being really arsey about Oddworld games being on their systems, if New N Tasty does not come out for Xbox consoles then I think Microsoft will realise their stupid mistake when New N Tasty inevitably becomes successful, I may be wrong, but doesn't the developer of a games console take a cut for every copy of a game sold?

This makes me less certain which console I'll eventually go for. I'll probably wait until the release of Arkham Knight before I decide...

On a side note, Xavier, Stew retweeted a two month old podcast with did with Joypad and Me.

I couldn't find a topic using the search function so I thought I'd bring it to your attention anyway. There were some details on New n Tasty, problems with Munch Vita and Stewart's open MGS letter if I recall.

Shame about Microsoft having this attitude towards them. I'd like it if oddworld was reached out to more people to get he ball rolling again. I have a feeling they'll see their mistake within the next 4 to 6 months.

It think it might be about 30%? I think Stew mentioned it in that Joypad podcast but I can't remember if it was the same context.

I don't think that JAW will have any problems getting NnT on ID@Xbox. From what I have seen and experienced, the team behind ID@Xbox are doing an excellent job at helping indies get on their platform so far, with Chris Charla at the head of it all. A 360 release will not happen however as there is no indie programme in place for that system.

Oddworld Slam Jam confirmed! Can't wait to see Abe dunk it like a pro!

Well if Will Smith and Sub-Zero were hidden characters in NBA Jam why wasn't Abe included!?

He looks happy playing basket ball.

I believe the performance gap he means is in with the tools for developing for each system. From what I understand, the Xbox dev tools arent what they were on 360 or as good as the PS4 ones currently, so once they get up to snuff the gap should decrease. However PS4 is more powerful than X1.

Oh thanks for that I think I missed that one. I'll give it a listen tomorrow. :)

Heads up though. It's almost 3 hours long and the majority of it is discussing the games they've currently been playing (Stew talks a lot about Assassin's Creed). But there is some interesting information on Oddworld spread throughout.

Ok good to know. Does anyone know if there is an easy way to download it as an mp3? There does not seem to be a link on the site.
