(Excuse the size of this post, as I'm not one to write essays on such subjects; I like to keep it short and simple.)
Hello, everyone. I'm a large advocate of the Playstation "Move"ment. I love the amount of precision and usefulness it holds. That being said, I have a growing worry. Looking at both the SOCOM 4 and Killzone 3 MOVE gameplay footage, I can safely say I don't like the way the shooters are going right now.

These are the two games in question. While SOCOM 4's reticle looks aesthetically pleasing, KZ3's is looking far too much like this:

This is not limited to aesthetics, but the gameplay as well. On closer examination, it is evident that there is, in fact, quite a bit of auto-aim in the game. This is may be limited to Single-Player only, but it is a blow to hardcore gamers. With this camera system, the games look far more arcadey than their true selves without MOVE.
KZ3 looks like a joke with the current interface. It has the overly-large reticle on the screen with changes colours. This is unacceptable. I have full faith in GG and Zipper, and I hope they at least add the option to keep the camera-system like without MOVE.
When you keep the Camera System, you keep the tactical feel to the games. Both developers have time to add the options to keep the game the same as it is but with pointing instead of the Analogue Stick. It is what the hardcore gamers want. The game just with added precision. I have faith in both companies, and I just want the games to be great.
Thanks for reading through this.
Microsoft announced its financial results for Q3 of fiscal year 2026, including an update on its gaming Xbox business and more.
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.
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.
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
The charity event will be streamed live from Gamescom in August.
Thanks to the slip-up of an artist working on the title, we now have more evidence that a new Injustice game is in the works.
good read but dont forget that both of these dont come out for at least 6 months so they could be better by then
