Capcom has been on a hot streak it recent years, its franchises impressing almost across the board and offering both nostalgic and progressive design.
This week on Gaming: The Podcast, John Robertson and Stace Harman discuss Capcom's success and look at how the company has firmly re-established itself as a top tier source of games.
Rockstar has launched an official marketplace for "every server and every player" to buy mods: Cfx Marketplace.
I wonder how much of this isn't just taken work of others who have modded for free.
Edit: Also, great way for R* to take popular ideas and build them into GTAVI based on demand.
What I see happening here is, R* is going to ban mods in GTA6 UNLESS you buy them from the marketplace and R* then gets a cut of that sale.
Ah, perfect timing with them taking down the Bully online fan mod. Greedy a$$ company.
Yep, right there with you. I'll happily donate to a mod creator if it looks really cool, or if I enjoy it. But expecting payment up front? Nope, not touching it.
I'm not entirely sure how to read this, as it doesn't seem exactly like an exact parallel to Bethesda's paid mods shenanigans.
Rather than single player stuff, this appears to be aimed solely on Cfx Servers. From what I've gleaned, apparently Rockstar bought the Cfx mod team several years ago, coming a few years after weird contentions led them to ban a few of their members. Ultimately, the question is if they plan to keep this contained to only online/servers.
I have to guess to a degree yes. It'd be pretty hard to "force" paid mods for single player when modding files locally on your own machine, but much easier for servers they'll control. So perhaps this is their soft launch ahead of GTA6 online and they'll clamp down more tightly on non-official servers going forward? Ever since they've become a 1 or 2 property studio, I haven't really cared much for Rockstar stuff, so I'm not entirely up on everything surrounding this. Sounds like it has the potential to be problematic further down the line, but right now fairly easy to ignore...I think lol.

Kotick Made $155 million from MS in the buyout, the little b*tch needs to stop whining. Thanks to this Microslop deal and massive industry consolidation thousands upon thousands of devs and other workers lost their livelihoods. This greedy piggie pervert needs shut up and f-off.

who said they r good ?? recycling PS1/PS2 era games and most of the times destroying them is good??
RE3 Remake let s e honest was Bad ...MHRise looks like a Nioh game rather than MHunter ...and let s dont talk about -completely out of touch-RE7-8....
where are the genuine games like Dragons Dogma or Shadow of Rome or even the JRPG series they had back in 90 s Breath of fire ? they stuck with 3 IP s all and all (RE, SFighter and Monster Hunter) and they mutated them so much (to the worse) that are not recognisable anymore
.the only good game they developped lately was Monster Hunter World which i admit they almost got it perfectly right
I guess someone at Capcom finally listened and righted the ship before it went down. God knows they were a mess at one point and it was sad to imagine such cherished IPs being left to rot.
Here's hoping they stay on course!
Now if we could *ahem*get Sengoky basara in the West again that would be great.
Good? Yeah maybe. Better than a couple years ago? Hell yes. But as good as capcom in the Nineties and up to around 2004? Hell no.
Now? They’ve been pretty consistently good throughout their entire existence! Sure, their whole focus on outsourcing IPs to western developers was a bit of a misstep, but each generation they’ve had stellar hits.
Capcom is one of my favorite developers and I think if I had to choose only one Japanese developer to get games from it’d be Capcom.
