I have to agree, based on system of each game. SF4 is well balanced minus Ryu and Sagat. Other then that its anybodies game. Tekken 6 will my runner up, just because it seems anybody can beat anybody as long as they know their character well, but don't long the cross screen juggles you see in top level play. BlazBlue was fun but V-13 and Iron Tagger killed the experience for me. V-13 is a cross screen spammer and Iron Tagger is just cheap 3 moves or 1 + his finisher and its over. Dont like games like that cause online that all you see. Granted Sagat is the same in SF4 but if you have a solid gameplan you can beat a Sagat. With Iron Tagger it just seems I would dominant most of the match and get caught slipping twice and over. UFC was fun up until I learned how much BS the mount position provides the player on top. All that player has to do is hold right or left on the analog stick and it pretty much pick your spot to attack cause the guy on the floor can't do much.

Nuff Said

Tell me again how the multiplatform strategy was supposed to fix everything. Look at your results and compare them to Nintendo, which keeps thriving with exclusives. Your loyal fans are gone. And let’s not forget the pile of IPs you purchased only to let them rot.

The worst thing is this is down from last years numbers/expectations which was down from the previous years numbers/expectations. You think about how long “down” has been a consistent part of the communication and you realize those subscriptions are what’s holding that boat together. The price cut of gamespass is still a price raise in a string of price raises. They are trying to use players to offset the missing revenue. Now call of duty is out of gamespass, which is literally WHY they bought the company. To draw people to the subscription. They realized they missed a boatload of money and that wasn’t sustainable. Now you pay for it like you would have if they never bought the company… so why buy the company? Mind you those billions still need to be paid back. Yeah it gives you a chance to say we make the biggest FPS… but the internal conversations must be brutal at high level on topics that really matter. Like revenue. Profitability. And ROI for the shopping spree.

Is this like the 10th quarter in a row they're down 33% on hardware how is that even mathematically possible. You would think their mediocrity would Plateau
