One of the last bastions of the console wars.
Shipping hasn't increased $100/unit. This is due to Sony not biting on the US price increases they likely needed to make a year ago, instead choosing to take the loss to increase market share. It's all just hitting at the same time now as opposed to being spread across multiple smaller hikes.
If the hardware is profitable I don't know if they care.
We're getting reaction articles about commercials now?
The only delay less shocking than this was its first delay.
Nobody wants gaming to fail more than gamers.
Not even close. Outlaws may have been stale in terms of gameplay for some people, but Mindseye was straight up unplayable on release. Haven't followed it to know if the updates so far have done anything, but it was worse than 2077 on PS4.
"Well yeah, they'd be stupid not to maximize sales. That's just good business sense."
Nothingburger as always; just N4G being the last bastion of the console wars.
The budget for Expedition 33 wasn't even 30 million, so I imagine Sandfall was pretty happy with it. Fair to say without GP it likely wouldn't have blown up nearly as much either.
I think it's all PS fans have left at this point. Console wars were always a competition for fourth place behind Nintendo, PC and mobile. If Xbox evaporates into a hybrid virtual platform, then PS will be perennially left in last place.
Really enjoy the Ori games, but the studio head has always been an insufferable dickhead. Those costs aren't included cause he's miserable and full of shit.
Seems to just be for Europe, where they raised prices last month. This just brings prices back to where they were before the increase.
I mean there's no way this actually gets released right?
Yeah as a gaming company MS is crushing it right now. Xbox as a brand isn't doing too hot.
It's not healthy to be this upset at people having fun.
They're definitely fringe indie. I mean literally they're an independent company, but a team of Ubisoft devs getting funded by Microsoft/Epic is different than a single dude making Stardew. Game seems to be fantastic though and I doubt they'll struggle to get AAA funding for whatever they do next. I think doing this with such a small team is finally showing the upside to UE5, and is an indictment on the inefficiency of larger devs. Need to do a better job of fostering the talent t...
Not enough white penises for OP
"But lets assume that 25% of that is profit is would take them 140 years to pay back ABK. "
That's not how investments work.
As nostalgic as I can feel about this site, watching the death of this (currently) toxic community should be a victory for our collective emotional health.
