Not really. It was in development before MS bought ABK. This is all on Activision.
I'm happy to see it fail tbh. It deserves to. CoD has never deserved the praise it gets.
Blizzard is an awful company. They'll never see any of my money, and by extension neither will Activision and Microsoft.
Yes Xbox does have some plan. They can't compete in the games industry so their plan is to buy and control it at any cost.
Same, I'm not a fan of Bungie and I would say that they were over valued.
I keep expecting that we're going to see an announcement that Sony have bought Square Enix or some other Japanese developer.
There have been rumours that they were looking to buy Take Two but I think that's beyond Sony tbh.
No they're just winging it. It's what all companies do isn't it?
What a stupid question. Of course they have a long term plan, it's just they haven't told us what that plan is!
I don't even own an xbox 🤣
I guess it wasn't obvious I was joking and was just mimicking our resident Xbox worshipper Obscure?
Not played either but out of the 2 games I think I'd rather go for Robocop, because it seems more fun. From what I've seen of AW2 it just looks...dull.
Thank you lord Phil and team Xbox! You make all my dreams come true!
Killing what? The industry? I agree.
But when will we see Bloodlines 2?
Microsoft is, but Xbox isn't.
Well, they have to find $70 billion now, so I guess they need to claw some money back from somewhere
Boo hoo
I mean if this carries on Sony will have bought the industry. I guess they're fed up of constantly playing second fiddle. PS5 sales pale in comparison to the mighty Series S. I think if this acquisition doesn't succeed, then Sony may exit the industry by 2027.
Do you think maybe they were joking?
Ashley home furniture?! That's quite the acquisition 🤣
Still waiting for the inevitable purchase of Square Enix.
I don't think it's something that should happen, but I still think it will at some point.
Some people actually are though.
Having said that, you can't really blame them since Phil Spencer himself has said that this is one of their first first party games since buying ABK. Which is just a downright lie.
