This is the norm, it has been this way for a long time. They have just become more bold and the cracks in their masks are starting to show.
Meh, two peas in a pod. I bet if you asked her if some industries should be run by the government (Healthcare, Energy, etc...) she would say yes. I see her as probably having both viewpoints.
They are a marketplace... They sell games... Only a jackhole would be mad because they sell EVERYTHING.
No guys no glory.
Well you have to remember. It's not just "What can MS buy" it's also "Who would sell exclusive to MS"
So maybe this is one of the only games they could get for an anywhere reasonable price.
If you think about it, this game has a huge uphill battle. The last DN game was a development nightmare and by the time it came out (over ten years later) it was terrible. Now I only partially blame Gearbox for that. But it will have to be a...

"Want to play against PS4 players, buy a PS4."
Oh the arrogance is palpable.
What if you own a PS4 and want to play with your family or friends that only have an Xbox?
Not everyone is as homogeneous as you, some of us like to play with other people.
I will try to remain optimistic but if her past is anything to base her future on then her idea of "humanity" is only plausible in science fiction and isn't just unrealistic it's downright delusional. Which makes a decent story terrible.
I was expecting it with my Xbox One X like they originally said. So I dont know what you mean by "Not too far back".
Well they sure werent going to delay it to fall and compete with RDR2 plus Forza and any other game they might announce this holiday...
Forget that! If you dont like it feel free to release your game on a different platform... Oh wait You want what Steam has to offer (its userbase) but dont like the rules. If your game is truly good it will still get noticed, there is plenty of press, other curators, "influencers" etc... stop pretending like your game would have been a huge success but it got lost in the trash heap. Name ONE GAME that this has actually happened too because its bad right now so there should still be ...
I do, The only reason I watch E3 coverage is to hear about games... Why wouldnt people want to hear about games at E3?
I dont think it will happen, BUT ...Why would starting your conference with arguably one of the most anticipated showings at this years E3 be worse than throwing a brand new IP that no one knows about or worse maybe the Halo, GoW, Forza which everyone expects.
Start strong and end strong.

Your time table is way off. The Windows 365 and virtualization although good is still in its infancy and far from being accepted or adopted in a large scale environment (Most companies are still on Windows 7 and the ones who have moved to 10 are not looking to make another move). Most large companies are not going to just rip all their on prem servers out of the racks and trust MS to manage their SQL servers full of private company information. Not to mention bandwidth o...
Are you kidding? Do you not remember what a decade ago looked like? The Iphone was released just over a decade ago. Research showed that roughly 55% of households even had broadband internet and those with dial up 67% wanted to keep dial up. Now roughly 90% of all people have broadband, 50% of all people have a tablet and almost 80% of all people have a smart phone.
But for some reason in the next decade as we get closer and closer to unearthing true AI and hitting singular...

You must not purchase MS OSs for businesses if you think they don't make money off their OSs anymore.
Haven't cut anything from the game??? Where did this content come from? If the game isn't released you can't have extra content. Everything made is a part of the game... This is cut out unless you pay more. Call it what it is.
Who is getting ripped off, that doesnt know they are taking a risk? Seriously who is like... I'm going to buy Civ VI which has thousands of reviews and goes man I got ripped off.
There is more information now than ever. If you buy a game with no reviews or only a few than yes you are taking a chance... but who doesnt understand that? And if they dont, them buying it and getting ripped off should be the teaching experience they need before it happens even worse like buyi...
The same can be said for almost anything... I look through Netflix to find a movie and have to wade through hundreds of garbage movies.
I dont need Steam to be the arbitrator and curator of what is good and bad. I want a great place that sells almost everything and lets me choose what I find to be good or bad. Steam also allowed curator lists so if there is someone you know that has the same taste in games as you it is pretty easy to let them do the heavy lifting and find t...
No they only kicked everything off because the Apple App. Now that Apple reneged and said F-U to Steam unless Steam shares a cut of sold games Steam has no reason to change so it went back.
Diablo is bogged down by too much loot.
Street Fighter is bogged down by too much fighting.
Its a systems game, thats why people play it. Some people like system heavy games.
