That would be fantastic Battlestar!! Imagine MS owning all those studios, then mismanaging them all like they've done with almost everything else they've bought so far! Then put the icing on the cake by giving these studios literally no incentive to make a quality product because everything ends up on GP and they've made bank already!! Imagine!! We could get games like Redfall releasing every month!!! How amazing would that be?!
I didn't mean that in a literal sense Palitera. Business is business and it doesn't matter how much they have in the bank. They're in this more than 2 decades now, spanning 4 generations and have only had relative success with one console, the 360, which was partly due to the PS3 release being delayed multiple times. They've finished last every time so someone's going to pull the plug eventually. Snapping up all these publishers and developers is a desperate last move in t...
I've been thinking this myself. How long can they keep pumping all this cash into Xbox and Gamepass with no real return? They'd be much better off becoming 3rd party and getting their games, and even GP, on as many devices, including competitors consoles at this stage.
MrDead, maybe you just need to upgrade your rig like Todd said. Stop being poor and go out and buy 4 4090's immediately.
"....but I would ask how well you would do going full blast into the curves...."
Did you try using the brakes?
Not hard to have a 1,000% increase when the base number is......... 2. I kid, I kid, but it's cool that they sold a couple of thousand consoles off the back of Starfield.
Man, what the hell is going on at R*? Who's green lighting this shit?? How do you have the absolute disaster that was the trilogy remasters and then have this as your next release? I've absolutely zero faith in GTA 6 being any good at this stage.
Trevor talking to random vegan npc: "You suck c*ck, but you don't eat meat.... It don't make sense to me "
Classic. Such a shame we won't get that humour again now that R* have gone all in on virtue.
@Minute Man: When chumps stop throwing their wallets at them.
Sweet!! I never got around to playing it on the 360 but always wanted to. Looking forward to next month!!
You clearly haven't played it if that's what you think.

If you think millions of people losing their jobs is going to be the "best thing that could possibly happen to humanity," you need your head checked. Think about it for one second.
I'd buy that for a dollar.
@kneon: Jesus H Christ that's the most ridiculous thing I've ever seen.
@Rise: If you use a music analogy, it's fine to create something in a particular style inspired by something else as long as it's not an exact copy. You most certainly cannot use someone else's recording, add your own recordings on top of it and then call it your own though.
The song is called Heavy Metal X DVNO by Justice........ if anyone was wondering.
@andrew: I understand you guys need to make money, but these floating video ads are overkill and are completely ruining the experience. Not to mention the player is glitching and audio is on when the page loads. A lot of people, including myself, stopped using N4G in the past when similar video ads were implemented and went to other sites for their news instead.
Ladies and gentlemen, allow me to introduce N4G's very first Karen......... Battlestar23!!
For him to say that making great games isn't going to help the situation is absolutely insane too. Sony and Nintendo are on top thanks to the games they're putting out. Imagine the coach of a sports team telling his players "we're never going to beat these guys so there's not much point putting in the effort." Crazy.
MS' acquisition spree is a last ditch desperate attempt to stay in the industry. Instead of building or nurturing studios they already own, they're just throwing cash at everything to see what sticks.
