Yep. I'm not sure why so many want to deny this. They're already providing multiple avenues to gain users. A few million PS-only gamers aren't a concern for their long term goals.

Fanboys will be prepared to call him a liar no matter what, but he's being pretty clear. Their games are available on console via Xbox, PC, and mobile through xcloud. What more do you really think they need to do here? They're the most platform agnostic of the big 3.

As others pointed out, quote him in full. Those big Bethesda IPs are going exclusive.

I know armchair financial analysts can talk about how trillion-dollar MS should try to make a few...

Gears Tactics looks pretty nice.

Between the "insider" feedback program and the Xbox.com feedback thing, I probably submitted a dozen suggestions bitching about the OS.

Never cared about resolution though lol.

I honestly can't tell if you guys are being serious or not anymore.

It's 1080p on the Series X and Series S. Just like it's been 1080p on the One X.

Nobody has cared for 3 years, but you know, console wars and stuff.

Looking at the team forming at the Initiative, this could very well be a great opportunity for many devs. Ground floor, huge budget, lots of possibilities. More money? Promotion? All sorts of reasons to move around the industry. Console wars aren't one of them, though.

Count up the layoffs and closures at Sony and you'll get similar numbers at Xbox. Look at stories of so called "crunch" and other employee issues at both Xbox studios and ND while you'r...

Seems to be counter to what a few people thought just a couple of days ago.

No shock from me. No conspiracies needed, either. They are openly saying: here's the deal. Think of where we came from with Nintendo back in the 80s, strongarming their way to dominate retail.

This is a shr...

Yes, but I'm adding "plugged off" to my own vernacular.

Still on this crusade, Christopher? Sure seems like the S is matching the X's frames, running the same "polys."

It's almost like you can drop the GPU and memory down to run the same games at lower res. Sort of like we've been doing for years on PC.

Ever check out Captain America & Avengers? Actually not bad for a licensed game. Not quite Contra level, but still good.

It's different than the arcade version. NES one is like Contra × Megaman. Not perfect, but a hidden gem imo.

Tip my hat to Larian here. Even with much deeper pockets than us, they too won't give scalpers the satisfaction.

But seriously Nvidia, before going to consumers and youtubers, you don't have an allotment for devs of Larian's level?

In a perfect world, you'd be right. But then I'm reminded that the Kardashians are still a thing. Business 101 also involves Marketing 101.

But very true for gaming industry as a whole.

I feel your pain.

Not quite the issue, but sure.

Look at it in other contexts though. If you're into retro gaming on a Saturn or Dreamcast, for example, you should start by swapping in a new internal battery. NBD.

If you plan to keep your Vita going, be sure to buy some spare batteries while still available. Not only to have a spare for when there's wear down, but it's often the best solution to the low battery glitch you may see.

Here, they&...

@gin

According to some of these "advocates," they claim to be grown ass men. I'm personally not against used games or physical trades. But the nonsense and short-sighted hypocrisy of these fools needs called out.
