Just a quick note: we're still looking into the Capcom DRM story, so this part of the show may or may not be in the public release on Monday. [UPDATE: we have removed the Capcom DRM discussion and will revisit it after clarification and fact checking]

DF Direct Weekly #145: Xbox Multi-Platform Rumours, Horizon Forbidden West PC, Nvidia Pulsar

John, Rich and Alex return for another Weekly, discussing the potential implications of Xbox going multi-platform on selected titles, what we should - and shouldn't - expect from Horizon Forbidden West on PC and John's surprise gaming purchase. Meanwhile, the team explains why Nvidia's G-Sync Pulsar technology is such a big deal - and the announcement of VRR support for GeForce Now seems set to make the best cloud streaming solution even better still.
