Yes I'm fully aware.
"That's all stuff that would have existed with or without Microsoft."
Some of their studios were on a constant verge of struggle like Obsidian. Who have to been the biggest player of this generation. Everyone talks about Nurturing Studios and MS has done just that to everyone's surprise.
Their games are everywhere so why does it matter how it's made or who's creative or not? Why the constant crys cope and seethe about it? You...
@Hooman as far as The MS quarterly earnings GP has been sustaining itself and even making up a large percentage games, service and content for Xbox. It's doing fine in its own. Obviously it'll do better with multiplat releases, clearly, money from both ends are being made.
@Frosty you've been the class clown since thanks gen started. You said the S was holding everyone back which was wrong now you really think they're leaving hardware? You're not mental...
@Rows don't know. What are the sells for numbers for 16? https://n4g.com/news/263965...
Number 2 is better than 364 right? Would it matter you would've asked for numbers for either title which aren't any. You see a game underperforming and think every single third party game should skip Xbox huh?
You fanboys are ...
Still making excuses. What's the issue with this?
The "sigh" means your displeased. Don't make excuses why is it bad?
You're not a true PS fan! You may not be funding the studios but many others certainly will.
Why is that a bad thing?
You want another Doom The Dark Ages scenario? I'm surprised Oblivion and Expedition 33 did well with a simultaneous release. Clearly that fatigue was definitely felt with Doom.
They need at least 2 weeks apart.
Yes but what if you want both?
Not everyone can buy both.
Tales Games, Persona games, various other JRPGS IP and new IP have factually been announced and shown up strong at showcases through out this gen for Xbox. You mend bridges by simply releasing these games on said platform and raise awareness of those games on a platform that had diminished Those types of games from the Xbox platform and audience for years. Final Fantasy is simply one of those cases.
It also doesn't help this Final fantasy is one one the least popular fanf...
Pentiment didn't do well and Hi Fi didn't do all that hot also on PS5. Deathstranding did well on Xbox. 16 didn't do super well on PC.
This game was the least popular of all the games due to its change in direction plus didn't Xbox fans make fun few years ago also?
So where are you getting this big over arching narrative that they should never release their games on Xbox when it's not only one game and the least popular of the game se...
You realize it got most of its sales on PS5 right? Not even the PC version did all that well. One platform will take most of the sales as it had moat of the hype.
I can see that. Did all it did on PS5 in 2023 and PC version a year later in 2024 also didn't seem to do all that well either. Another year later it hit Xbox and did even less. Staggered trickled down releases doesn't help anyone only PS5 benefited being a timed game and getting mass majority of the sales.
Just like you said it's in GP (like all their first part) I would imagine it definitely would outsell it considering Xbox fans clearly played and bought it already. I see you're saying it in trolling fanboy fashion clearly.
You realize PS guys are funding xbox Studios and funding their GP right?
ninja Gaiden being released 8 days apart is insane MS hasn't learned anything with shoulder to shoulder releases. October 29 for Outer Worlds and October 21 for Ninja Gaiden. These games now range from 60 to 80$. Yalls audience might GP it but other platforms have to buy it and your average person won't shell out that kinda money a week apart.
Xbox pivots left right, up down and center every time of course multiplat is there next venture especially after ABK. Beside LS there's nothing that's indicating they're going multiplat. Hot Shot Horizon of course small titles but they still believe in selling software and console.
I know anything can happen. I'm not saying it's never ever happening I just can't see it happening soon.
They're not there day one. They sell PS Games perfectly fine. Fanboy!? Are you freakin kidding me kid? They have no reason unless they're not making enough money on a single platform so they don't have to. Nothing in their financial reports suggests they need other platforms at all. Spiderman, Gow, Ghost, Last Of us, Horizon., sold well. Yotei will sell well. This trend will continue. Are those not facts? So Please tell me what has changed that that they NEED other platforms? Go a...
Very few games and if you're talking about AAA first party then bond can't see that. They have no reason to. Unless you can tell me the reason?
Not saying the delay will magically make the game a 10 outta 10 but a delay is a start to work on core content of the game. Some say the delay wont do anything for the game at all. They might be right tbh. Delays these days don't hold much weight like they use to unfortunately.
