I don't get how having people cancel their pre-orders and influencing negative views towards the game and Ubisoft is good PR, this theory makes no sense.
You make it sound like consumers are completely obligated to buy every new release and that the companies are taking the money right out of everyone's wallets. This is not the case, no one has to buy the game if they don't want to, whether it is at launch or the remastered edition. Also you act like people who switched from one console brand to another should not have the right or opportunity to play the games that they missed. FYI every product in existence was put out to make money,...
They are celebrating by allowing you to pre-order the game?
Wow Phil said exactly what I have been saying about DirectX 12 on Xbox One for a while. It is common sense. Glad Phil cleared that up.
The only thing that really matters to a stocks price is earnings. Until they report earnings the day to day trading is based only on speculation and other economic factors and is in no way a reflection of how Activision is doing financially off of Destiny. Once they report earnings they will obviously have a large earnings per share growth since they released an extra game that sold very well this quarter. Also the development expenses have already been incurred over the past few years, not a...
This article is not fair at all the stock market has been getting destroyed over the last month and many stocks are at their 52-week lows.
I think it would be a horrible idea.
If it made financial sense to launch the Xbox One in other countries Microsoft would have done that already. There is a reason why they are waiting, there is not enough demand to be profitable in those countries.
No there is no other country that is in the same position as China.
Beyond Two Souls- $9.99
Great idea this has inspired me to go play Grand Theft Auto and Manhunt in the real world! Be right back guys...
If Destiny or any other game was next gen only it would have the same graphics and the same amount of content, don't kid yourself. Everyone would have bought the game whether there was more content or not. Why would they make a greater investment when it would not equal a greater return. However investing to make the game available on more consoles creates a greater return, that is why they are also putting out games for last gen. And they will continue to also develop for last gen until ...
This game seems like a sleeper hit, I just wish they were more "experimental" with the pricing for a low key game like this and then maybe I would consider picking it up new at launch.
LOL! hold on lemme check.... [clicks homepage button][10 minutes later] ... nope parental controls definitely not on!
Oh wow I was not aware of that, that is awesome!
Sony's creditors would never allow them to go bankrupt. Besides bankruptcy would be the best thing for the company it would allow them to wipe debt and restructure the company.
Are the pictures or videos not loading for anyone else? All I see is black boxes.
I am not hatin' but honestly I don't think themes and authors description of "triple-A" titles are convincing arguments. The other 3 are good though if you are into indies and remote play (although I don't get the point of remote play unless they start to allow you to stream games from somewhere other than your home.)
Okay everyone here are the FACTS from Microsoft and Sony's most recent quarter ending June 30th:
Microsoft Computing and Gaming Hardware division (includes Xbox and Surface): $18,000,000 profit.
Sony Game & Network Services division (Playstation): $39,344,146 profit.
It will probably get bought by either Google, Amazon, or Microsoft. I'm thinking mostly Microsoft because of their strong push towards mobile.
