Pretty decent list. I'm a sony slave. Deal with it. But I own (and love) a wiiu. I totally agree with this list. Xenoblades Chronicles X has a magnificent, beautiful world! <3

nowitzki20043687d ago

I own a WiiU as well and love it still have not played Xenoblade, looks awesome though am def. going to pick it up sometime.

BrettAwesome3687d ago

I really believe that game is a true testament to the real power of the wiiu. And it says alot about how far devs can potentially take something like the ps4. Xenoblade on ps4 would look a-mazing :-P

AndrewLB3686d ago

The first Xenoblade on Wii was an incredible game, and while I have not played Chronicles X... for some reason it just doesn't look interesting. The first games characters and story were truly captivating, while in Chronicles X they just seem lifeless.

@Andrew

"while I have not played Chronicles X"

Well then I cant take ur judgement seriously at all.

bloop3687d ago

I don't think anything comes close to GTA V, for me anyway. The attention to detail in Los Santos is mind boggling. Even when going to the bottom of the ocean.

nowitzki20043687d ago

It is amazing. Way too hard for me to pick one. They are all unique in their own way.

XCX world is like the world in Avatar (giant smurf one)

AndrewLB3686d ago

Funny how they show a quick clip from the game that created the open world rpg genre, Ultima 7: The Black Gate. It was the first game to completely remove the guiding hand of linearity, allowing the player the ability to go do whatever they wanted. It also introduced real day/night cycles and EVERY SINGLE NPC had fully programmed daily routines (waking up, going to work, shopping, farming, boozing at the bar, etc) which brought a depth to the world never before seen. The game map was huge, had zero loading screens, and every action you took changed the game. Modern games may promise this, rarely if ever achieve it. Yea, the game was released in 1990 so its beyond dated, but the story was amazing and definitely one of the best RPGs i've ever played.

Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.

To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.

Jingsing38d ago

The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.

Once they re-evaluate exclusive all will be fine….

S2Killinit38d ago

Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.

Jingsing38d ago

15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.

Tanktopmaster9238d ago

These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
