Museums should be very interested to get one of those ... Series consoles.
No.
But everyone was annoyed when Xbox Ultras celebrated a former 3rd party multiplat game as a masterpiece and "ONLY possible on Xbox" for months (!).
Finally this has an end now.
4 of them are former 3rd party multiplat games anyway, they've just changed ownership.
And the other is Forza.
Let's ignore cannibalization then, which, according to you, doesn't happen at all.
Let's ignore it.
However, my question remains unanswered.
What else does Xbox need to finally gain some grip?
Zenimax, ABK, Minecraft, GP, tried buying out even Nintendo (and Sega, Warner Bros., From Software, etc.), porting true Xbox IPs to PS, and now they're reaching even for Steam.
What else does O...
(I even forgot Minecraft.)
So.
What else does Xbox need to finally get some grip?
Zenimax, ActivisionBlizzardKing, Gears & Forza on Playstation, cannibalization of retail for GP, Steam, maybe Playstation exclusives via Steam, tried buying out Nintendo, etc.
It's hilarious.
"And unless we—as players—take a stand, the greed won’t stop."
And that's the tough part about it.
Look at those annual figures showing billions and billions of money being spent on the most ridiculous add-ons, DLCs, pre-release accesses, even pre-orders, digital deluxe crap, etc.
I mean - we've stood together at times. I don't say it didn't happen before.
But within all of our communities th...
True words, buddy.
Q: "So how many units did Shadows sell?"
Ubisoft: "Well, look, we ... it's been a busy week."
It's greed.
I wish I could give you a more extensive explaination.
Digital games could also be lended or sold to friends & other people.
It'd be absolutely in the realm of being technically possible.
But they don't do it. Because every digital game has to be bought individually through their one and only (!) digital store. And you can't even lend it to other people unless you give away your account...
My guess:
September 29th, 2026.
I really can't see how they would actually want, like truly want (!) to release their biggest game ever at end of May.
Which is about 14 days before the FIFA World Championship is about to kick off - right in the Summer time for many countries GTA is popular in.
GTA(6) is huge, massively huge.
But one of the few things that are still quite bigger than GTA is the F...
The sad thing about those price hikes is that none of that money is neither intended or used to pay workers better.
I'd pay 700 bucks for a console if I knew that noone in the production line is being exploited anymore.
But those tariffs ...
Trump is a guy who is used to rip people off.
But he and people like him, ironically, hate it getting ripped off themselves.
These tariffs are purely drive...
"Funny" how close Death gets when talking in GTA releases instead of full years to go.
Makes sense.
By 2018, it was probably the time when Xbox and Playstation could tell publishers and studios their final next-gen specs.
"Xbox is making better first party games“
If not as much in online communities & news invested gamers like us are seeking through the shelves for a game:
Tell me the names of the so called "Xbox 1st party games" he/she instantly connects with "Oh yeah, that's Xbox" the same as they would know Astro Bot or Ghost of Tsushima, God of War or The Last of Us stands for Playstation 1st party games.
Please don&#...
It's now on Xbox', 2hrs later though, but yeah. Who knows.
Maybe Windows was updating.
Interesting:
Playstation's official YouTube channel has got the second trailer listed.
Xbox' hasn't.
The fidelity of the graphics engine looks amazing.
@Fox
"They're giving gamers the option to play where they want."
You're probably way too intelligent to even suggest this is a good argument.
"MS is the most pro consumer company this gen.“
How's that?
Interesting article, even with some actual names of the people voicing their thoughts.
I think that we've had enough similiar situations at other studios and publishers already, hell even completely different businesses, to know that OF COURSE it's always about hostile environments at work and the search for rather effortless profits than causing excitment with great ideas.
All deflecting statements, wether from managements or other people in char...
