They just milk it so they havr a name to attach to all their copy pasta shooters.

jznrpg574d ago

Ubisoft has mismanaged everything for years now

P_Bomb574d ago

Division: Heartland cancelled, Splinter Cell awol. Yeah they could do better.

Zombieburger638574d ago

After the way they’ve dragged Tom’s name through the mud with their garbage games I really hope they never use it again. They will hopefully be shut down soon and we won’t have to deal with their trash.

Sitdown574d ago

Why does a company have to shut down, you can just make the decision not to deal with them.

Zombieburger638574d ago

They put themselves in this situation. Shit company making shit games. Maybe if they made something other than copy paste far cry 3/assassins creed the past decade they would be in a better spot.

Extermin8or3_574d ago

I mean they do make plenty of decent games, the assassin's creed games for instance are generally good games and actually have changed quite abit over the past decade. 10 years ago they released black flag and watch dogs one - the latter of which was actually rather underrated imo. The following year they released unity which was unfortunately very buggy at launch, this was then followed two years later BY AC Syndicate. Both of which were quite different to the AC's that came before or the ones that would come after. Watch dogs 2 came out around then and did reasonably well, rainbow six siege released and also has very much been successful. Splinter cell blacklist was released around 10 years ago and did well. The divion 1 released in 2015 and did pretty well and was a solid game. It was followed by the division 2 a few years later which was an event better game. The far cry series are too similar to each other but 4, prehistoric, 5, 5.5, and ,6 have all released in past decade and 4 and 5 were decent games. Then we got AC origins and AC Valhalla which were a total reinvention of the assassins creed franchise..... AC shadows will be following in their footsteps and it's expected that after shadows the next entry in a few years time will drastically mix things up. Both ghost reckons have ended up excellent games albeit at launch they had issues. Ubisoft's issue is it has a tendency to rush games out in an unfinished state and spends too long on games it ought to cancel before cancelling them. (Division heartlands for example). They do often play it too safe and in some instances make their games unnecessarily large and full of bloat for the sake of it. That said I thoroughly enjoyed most of the assassins creed games of recent years.

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.

Jingsing1d 15h 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.

Tanktopmaster921d 16h ago

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

S2Killinit1d 15h ago

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

Jingsing1d 15h 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.

Tanktopmaster921d 13h 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

Tanktopmaster921d 13h ago

Let me be clear. This is sarcasm

Take-Two CEO Once Again Side Steps Grand Theft Auto 6 Price Point

Strauss Zelnick says price of GTA 6 is being carefully considered and that Rockstar is focused on "making the most spectacular piece of entertainment on Earth."

Kuma2d ago

If GTA 6 abandons everything that made GTA 5 great, it will crash and burn right out of the gate. GTA 5 was funny and not at all PC. My worry is that they will cave to the PC crowd and ruin the vibes.

Eonjay2d ago

They got freaking BBLs twerking on the top of trucks for the gram, the freaking Flordia joker, and dude running down the stree in their undies and you are worried about it being 'too PC'? The internet has runied gamers. It doesn't matter how non-PC they make the game, you will all listen to the grifters telling you not to believe your lying eyes lol.

gigoran81d 23h ago

"Rockstar Games’ co-founder and former VP of Development Jamie King said he envisions GTA 6 as a game that’s “maybe not quite as edgy or quite as funny” as its satirical predecessors."

oh yeah, totally internet grifters spreading rumors...

blacktiger1d 23h ago

That's part of the plan, they destroyed you but they need to destroy the shareholders? Only 1 shre holder is the true elite that don't care

1nsomniac2d ago (Edited 2d ago )

Meh.., if it’s above £55 I ain’t buying it.

Rockstar are genuinely not half the company they used to be. I was a die hard GTA fan I’ve purchased every game and expansion and spin off day 1.

My opinion of GTA6 is that I can take it or leave it. Not bothered. They burnt too many bridges.

DaReapa2d ago (Edited 2d ago )

So they're actually leaving the door open for an L.A. Noire sequel? Nice!

VaNdAl2d ago (Edited 2d ago )

He should just come out and say it already it's getting stupid it's going to be a 100 bucks $200 for the special edition🤡🤡; 29315;🤣♿

Storm232d ago

I won't be getting this game until I can get it for $70. SHoot, I could wait for it to be even lower. I don't need the game that badly as my backlog is still huge and I am enjoying playing other things.
