That sucks. What is MS thinking here.
Well this E-mail according to some of the Journalists on social media who were in the Court Room. The FTC Lawyer said that Jim Ryan read the full contract after writing this E-mail that stated while COD would remain on Playstation for 3 years that 100% of the profits would go to MS.
Than he found out that MS were offering other companies like Nintendo and Nvidia deals (Remember that those deals were in the work for a long time) that had 10 years and 70/30 split of profits.
...
And MS takes 30% from the MLB show games that are now released on Xbox so both companies use profits used to reduce each others survival.
Post a link or it didn't happen.
MS have confirmed the E-mail is real.
Not surprised as most Digital Deluxe Editions have content that is exclusive. Don't understand why some here are surprised by this as again most games do this.
Congrats to MS on a great game.
Should have co-op at least.
Sounds like Sony's entire 1st party studios roster is in trouble which explains why Sony didn't show any good looking games at the showcase. It feels like their games are getting cancelled every where including Faction 2. Sony should fire Jim Ryan and hire someone who will lead the 1st party studios and get them released on time.
Sony was right to say no to Days Gone 2. The first game was a great single player game but Jeff Ross plan was to make DG2 a multiplayer co-op game and to get rid of the single player.
Jeff Ross's plan for DG2 was making the game a online co-op game with no single player mode. So i am for one am glad Sony said no.
I'm glad it wasn't given the go ahead as Jeff Ross said his idea for a sequel was making DG2 a online co-op game with no offline and no single player either. I enjoyed DG1 but i would hate DG2 if it went the planned route.
Terrible conference. 33 games and not 1 that looked good as the games looked like enhanced ps4 games. Where was FF7 Rebirth(no one is interested in FF16), GOT2, Days Gone 2, Last of Us factions, the rumored new uncharted game? Sony dropped the ball with this showcase.
Why are you bringing in Xbox into this discussion? I never mentioned Xbox in my comment. I don't like how you are trying to start a fanboy war here.
It was a big F- to me. There was no games that looked like they would be interesting to play.
Graphic wise I'm not impressed it looks slightly upgraded over the Miles Morales game. Also the textures are horrid and quite a bit of pop in can be seen.
Can't believable that the CMA is still acting childish the way they are. MS is an American company no other country can tell am American company what mergers they can or can't do in other countries. The UK needs MS more than MS needs the UK. Hopefully with Phil Spencer meeting the British PM next week he lets the PM know that the UK can't treat an American company like this.
'Dude they will have bought enough Publishers if this merger goes through, enoughs enough. ' MS needs to own more so we gamers can get more free games on Gamepass. Gone is the they that i pay full price for games and i will never start again.
15 launched on PS4, XBOX One and later on PC and FF16 launched only on PS5 so of course sales are lower. The same will happen with Starfield it's sales numbers will be lower than the likes of Fallout 4 because it's only launching on XS and PC and being on Gamepass day 1 will hurt actual game sales too.
