PG: “All in all, the new platform is terribly off with its timing. I'm afraid Apple Arcade will end up like the Mac App Store - a dusty place with a couple of nice innovative games but definitely not a platform where players go regularly to discover hot new titles. Not to mention a place where they will pay a subscription fee.”
In an exclusive interview with Game File, new(ish) Xbox boss Asha Sharma and Xbox chief content officer Matt Booty explain their vision for Microsoft’s gaming division
A good start would be to release games to go with the console. My Xbox Series X has gathered dust virtually from launch. My advice would be to ditch a next console and release games on PC, PlayStation and Switch. Another idea would be a hybrid console based on Xbox Series X tech and go the same route as Nintendo. Another idea would be to pull out of gaming altogether. Plenty of options there.
Why would they pull out? They have the momentum. Sony has been getting nothing but bad news lately.
Group consists of Unfrozen, Sad Cat Studios, VEA Games, Weappy, and Game Garden.
The financing will support 26 projects 'centred on Australian stories and ideas.'
"All in all, the new platform is terribly off with its timing.", really? I would like this elaborated a lot more. This service actually helps fix many outstanding issues with the App Store and in-app purchases. It also allows developers to make a predictable amount of generated revenue from the service and encourages quality focused on user engagement to get that money. This seems like a load of crap article back up by little to nothing other than a non-analyst based opinion which means practically nothing.
