I never argued in favor of acquisition. I said it was a non-story that Phil Spencer is excited for their future.
It was reported by quite a bit more sources than VGChartz, though.
Nope. Multiplatform is where they belong and where they plan to remain.
People speculate that the Earth is flat. Means nothing.
OT: Since Sony is also excited for their future, this is a non-story. But, good luck to Bungie!
And yet, the device that focused more on multiplayer remains light years behind...
Damn that Spider-Man, just niching its way along! :P
No, Microsoft has never been quiet. They are absolutely right.
OT: People seem to forget Sony went quiet just before the reveal of the PS4. We saw what happened there. There are much more strategic than they get credit for and I'm confident it will pay off again.
Excellent post!
You can be up in regions and down WW.
OT: Of course the consoles will decline (particularly PS4 as it has been HUGE all generation). I expect the PS5 to dominate yet again (at least between itself and Xbox ~ don't know what Nintendo has planned). Exciting times ahead!
Getting attention is one thing. Getting more than a platform that continuously provides ultimate levels of content and quality is another matter altogether.
Quoting a 2012 article while using common sense. You, on the other hand, live on hopes and dreams. Cage is happy working with Sony. The writing is on the wall.
They said the news was exciting, so that totally eliminates a Microsoft acquisition. ;P
Nope. They have a working relationship with Sony and are far more likely to be acquired by them (especially since they said they'd be down for it: https://gematsu.com/2012/03... Your best bet in hoping to play Quantic Dream's games is to buy a PlayStation. :P
OT: Definitely getting the acquisition vibes, which totally makes sense! Been a long time coming!
Uh, no?
OT: GT has always been the tech pusher in driving games. Looking forward to GT7!
Nothing to refute anything he said? That’s telling.
OT: Yeah, Xbox continues to struggle with games. After 3 gens, this shouldn’t be the case.
Yeah, thankfully PS4 has that covered too. :)
@blackblades: I'm not sure I follow.
Yeah, might be the dumbest question I've seen asked in quite a while. As with all consoles, the games are what truly sell it.
@King_Noctis: Uh, yeah, Nintendo IS a legit competitor to PlayStation. They actually make games that push the industry forward. Like Sony. It is, once again, Xbox that could bow out and it wouldn't hurt the other two in a substantial way. No, they are not necessary.
If you ask me, bring back SEGA. They knew what 1st party content was all about and constantly released plenty of games (again, like Nintendo and PlayStation).
Amen.
