“Specifically, it seems like Microsoft is now prepared for a world in which gaming platforms and gaming hardware are no longer synonymous as they once were. A “platform” becomes nebulous, almost intangible, nothing more than your login ID to access your games library; games that you can then play anywhere.”
Still doesn’t seem plausible. Your first example only compared casual gamers going from Wii & DS to mobile devices, which isn’t as substantial an example since casua...
Thanks. What’s so hard with contributors putting such a basic detail in the description
My bad forgot that Phillips was Dutch and not American
Still Nintendo must still be reeling from letting their IPs onto a western console
Nintendo probably still has mental scars from the last time they let their properties appear on an American console
Part 1 just sends shivers up my spine
God knows how long until the entire remake will be available, or even when Final Fantasy XVI will out
It’s been a long time since Halo was a big deal to begin with. It’s been surpassed by so many other franchises this gen that they have to band wagon into the next gen just to make it more relevant in the public’s eye
“B-B-But why is backwards compatibility so important”
So funny that people ask this yet don’t consider things like x86 and WiFi are largely successful because of BC.
Idk why people have become so negative to the concept. I can get why someone would say they aren’t interested, but so many people have to bring up “b-b-but it’s not necessary” like they’re somehow threatened by such a great consumer friendly feature’s existence.
“Marvel’s Spider-Man is currently the best-selling PlayStation 4 exclusive. Not to stoke the fires too much here, but Microsoft’s list does not have any of their exclusives breaking into the top ten.”
Stay classy PSLS.
On the flipside the only third party game in NS’ top 10 is Mario + Rabbids, yet that game still has Mario in it.
PS4 is the only system with first and third party titles in its first top 10 best selling games in the regi...
The fact that there’s so many of them. So many games of this nature successfully can’t coexist alongside each other for a long period
Why is it so acceptable for everyone to be on Sony’s ass about the crossplay situation & Nintendo’s ass for their overall underwhelming online service, yet criticizing Microsoft for charging gamers to play F2P games is off limits?
Maybe critical thinking isn’t for you.
Completely free to play on PS4 & PC but you’ll need a XBLG sub to play this F2P game on XO
It’s so surreal to see a generation where a Gran Turismo game isn’t among one of the top best selling games on a PlayStation system
Of the top 10 selling systems of all time 5 are from Sony, 4 are from Nintendo & 1 is from Microsoft.
Im interested in how it may change depending on how much Switch, PS5 & NexBox end up selling at the end of their respective lifecycles.
I wouldn’t mind seeing the return of Rilla Roo & Koala Kong in this game
Well Crunch Bandicoot isn’t a villain anymore
Why you dragging Capcom into this? You gotta go out of your way to see a $60 remaster from Capcom as you sort through all their budget priced remasters.
The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening will be $60
MediEvil will be $30
Both remakes look to have the same production value yet one is twice the price as the other. Please explain.
I already know the answer will be that Zelda will sell more, but you’d think Nintendo would have more integrity than that.
I bet Nintendo thought they were being unique when they required Friend Codes
Why even crack down on sexual content in M-rated games? You really trying to police adults like you’re their moral guardian? If you’re worried about kids then put up damn parental controls on your system.
Plus what does it say that you’re okay with all unspeakable acts of violence yet you demonize sexy content? That just sends mixed signals and shows you have no moral pillar to stand on against the people & content you’re criticizing.
What’s sucks mos...
“Though it recently passed 20 million units sold, it still lags behind the likes of Final Fantasy.”
Yeah but at over 20 million, Tales of is still the 7th highest selling JRPG franchise of all time.
Idk why comparing it to the 2nd best selling franchise is supposed to mean anything. That’s like telling your gifted basketball playing kid they may be exceptional but they’re no Michael Jordan.
