Where Oh where have these games gone?

Oh Where oh screw it.  As we all know many games have slipped from a 2009 to a 2010 release Heavy Rain, Bioshock 2, Red Dead Redemption, and more making 2009's release season less stellar than it had been before the set backs.  But that's not to say there aren't any games coming out.  I mean we still have Assassin's Creed 2, Modern Warfare 2, Tekken 6, Batman, KOF 12, Brutal Legend, and Dark Void and those are only multiplats.

But what happened to the plethora of other big releases that are looking more and more likely to be pushed into 2010 as well.  Games like MAG (supposedly a 2009 release, but gamefly has it listed as a 2010 release), Bayonetta, Army of 2: 40th Day,  Borderlands, Splatterhouse, Singularity, Lost Planet 2, and Dead Rising 2 have all been mention at one point of time earlier this year, but as of today details are scarce on these games.

While all consoles will have a nice set of exclusives for the year, 2009 seems more like the year of the multiplatform rather than the year of any console other than the PSP with it's new release and all.  2010 on the other hand seems like it's going to kick off with a huge huge bang, with all the games that got pushed back along with all the games originally scheduled for a 2010 release date (Kratos I'm waiting on you to come home) .  So these games need to show up and soon, because waiting until 2010 seems to be a death wish for any game with all the huge titles coming out.

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.

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….

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

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.

Tanktopmaster9233d 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
