Amazon new patents reveal video game distribution platform

quote:

Amazon’s (AMZN) new patents outlining the development of a video game distribution platform, hint that the tech giant may finally be ready to take on Steam in the digital video game distribution market.

quote:

Fresh off the acquisition of popular video game streaming site, Twitch, for $970 million, Amazon seems to be setting the stage to expand its online empire into the video game marketplace. Amazon’s patents(us20170001111a1) describe a user interface that can be used to “order, purchase, or otherwise obtain demo or full versions of games”. In addition the patent outlines a “spectator UI” that can be used to “view broadcast streams, join live game session and start new game sessions”.


RIP Steam. Kidding, kind of.

Was just reading that earlier, all depends on pricing and what is disabled feature wise + performance.

Biting at the bit to finally update from my FX 8300 in my main pc.

Ive had fun overclocking the 7350k tho. A little hot at 5.0 ghz which I'm disappointed with.

Also debating switching to a flip phone just to give a giant middle finger to the world.

I hope that pisses people off so much.

Well I've officially joined the master race

Special thanks to ILike for guiding me through the process and helping me pick parts. Everything is running beautifully and it feels super gratifying to know I built this thing

Here's my parts list

I got the GPU from my friend for free so that's why it's an older one

Second 1080 arrived this morning. Hopefully I can carve out time later to get it installed. I have to figure out where to put the second cooler/fan combo as it's a hybrid.

I wish I had time for anything fun. Working 12 hrs. a day basically until the 22nd, and I'm salaried. Project at work is the most stressful situation I've ever been in, and I've almost resigned twice.

I just got my ViewSonic XG2401 in today. Anyone else have own of these monitors? I'm tinkering with the calibration settings trying to find something I like. It's definitely a big difference in color/image quality coming from my IPS panels.

Planning a new build. It's probably going to be a little over the top. I love this case. I was going to do the orange but I think it's too much orange so I'm going to get the white inside and use lights for color.
