Hello everyone.
Wanted to remind people that the November N4G Rewards -- https://n4g.com/user/blogpo... -- is still happening throughout the month and you can be entered to win a PS5 Slim simply by commenting, contributing stories, and helping to report and approve submissions throughout the month as a random winner will be selected from the the top 100 users of the month, which you can see at https://n4g.com/users/top .
To once again cover some questions from our last blog post:
* It's for top November, not all time
* We'll prevent people from spamming their way to the top
* This is open to anyone from anywhere that packages can be shipped
* There are plans for more N4G Rewards going forward with different prizes
* This is for the community, not open to BGFG members or their families
* If you search for "do a barrel roll" on Google, it will do a barrel roll.
Blue Prince successfully transplants its architecturally shifting mystery to the Switch 2, proving that its "one-more-room" roguelite hook is a perfect fit for portable play.
What is an Xbox now?
Had a strong feeling they'd do this. Ok that's one step inthe right direction. Baby steps because the moment they do anything drastic they step on rakes.
Next give ppl reason to sub for 30$ a month to for GP. Second is the lower the price. They want to return to Xbox they need to be attractive again. Lower price won't sell them out as it's too late this gen but it's something.
I wish it would it have read Microsoft quietly retires Xbox, and just develop/publish games. The Xbox name doesn't mean anything anymore, the 360 era was the best they ever had.
Look, I'm no fan of where they've taken the brand, but it's still one of the strongest brands out there regardless of where it is currently. We're in a small market and none of the big 3 are hurting to a point where they need to close shop or anything. And we need Xbox out there, because without them it would just be two very different console markets doing whatever they want without someone to remind them to do their best constantly.
And only the first half of that, god that was such a great time to be an xbox gamer.
The PS fan media are always having a pop at MS but as a gamer I've had no issues playing my Xbox games, my PC games and cloud games. I've benefited from playing my games everywhere. For over three decades I've enjoyed many games. The media's failure, especially this site to have balanced view on anything Xbox is childish. The Xbox move to PC is an excellent idea. An open platform, endless possibilities and no fake paywalls. Don't forget that in the UK Sony has a class action against it for anti competitive practices. No one is reporting this. All those gamers ripped off and over charged. And don't forget Valve too. They are too powerful as well. Change is good.
You do realize the intent is to go after every major digital market place, PlayStation just happened to be first but the class action lawsuit statement names xbox marketplace, apple store, Nintendo online store etc. they're all guilty, so holding it as something ms has over ps is dumb
Campaign was confusing af for the average consumer.
Next campaign: Everything is a console.
During a GDC Festival of Gaming keynote, Xbox VP of next generation, Jason Ronald, explained players who purchase Xbox Play Anywhere titles spend more than two times the same number of hours in-game as other players.
I really encourage people to get involved in Contributor activities. Don't see the kind of stories you like? Not enough XBox articles for you? Post them! (as long as they follow the guidelines)
I was unranked when this competition was first announced, bc of a site hiatus. I'm now #15 within a week, and it didn't take spamming. Only helpful contributions to the newsfeed, approving articles, and yea a handful of comments here and there. Contributor activities will get you leveled faster than anything!
Truth is, I want to see N4G grow again. Having more people contribute only helps that, and doesn't hurt my chances at winning the competition any more than it would if I stayed quiet, without encouraging others. (as long as I remain within the Top 100)
Best of luck everyone.
wow... I'm 17th. those are rookie numbers. I need to get those numbers up.
i would definitely post articles, cause i live in europe and most news are faster here due to the tkmezone.
but ... i dunno, i dont wanna make a mistake etc haha
