I don't know how we can say the comeback because even after the acquisitions most of those studios have yet to release any big titles. Could you say it has potential absolutely when you own that many IP's along with that many studios like Microsoft does now there's some real potential to be honest with you

And I don't think Microsoft is done acquiring studios for publishers I think their eyes on Ubisoft next and I could definitely see them go after Sega sin...

People love talking their trophies and achievements and now the amount of high achievements and platinum trophies dictate whether you are a hardcore gamer or casual

I never go out of my way to try to earn a trophy. If some unlock while playing that's good. People who are trophy hunting usually have to play the same game or mission many times just so they can earn it

It's the whole demon souls type games argument. You bring up the fact they can...

It has the same writer who did fallout new Vegas and he finished the story before leaving for other projects

That's fine can't wait to play it one of the very few games I will buy at full price because it will be well worth it

That makes sense. I rarely buy games day one simply because most of them are not ready and need 6 to 12 months of further development and patches. And then we have the micro transactions then electronic arts makes 800 million a year from selling FIFA ultimate teams they really don't need to worry about anything else

I really want more quality story driven games. Nowadays developers are always boasting about their game being 100 hours, I much rather play a 30-hour ga...

Bobby is worth over 800 million dollars I think he will get way more than 300 million. Either way hopefully the talent at activist can focus on available resources and development instead of worrying/focusing on distractions

Man gaming is turning into slot machine or spin the wheel casinos. Most big publishers aren't happy charging $60-70 and season passes/dlc and they are generating billions in micro transactions

What use to be earned by playing a game or via cheat codes has been turned into stuff you can buy. Resident Evil 2 remake is prime example of that. You can literally by DLC that will unlock all the weapons with unlimited ammo

I don't know about whole year but just saw horizon forbidden west trailer and damn it looks stunning. My only issue with the first game was the long long loading times which I guess improved a bit on PS4 pro so now can't wait to play it on PS5 with next to no loading

I played the first game few times and hated it until I spent few hours and once I got deep into the story it became one of my favorite game

I am sorry about writing and essay. Just my mumbling and jumbling thoughts

I am a PlayStation gamer who will buy Xbox series x for all of Xbox's single player story driven games. I understand the value of GP and more power to you if you enjoy so many games, but with family and work time is limited the games I like I buy. For some weird reason I never got into renting games I don't I always felt the pressure to finish and return the game(I know it sounds weird &#...

I'm sorry brother but for me personally I buy games I want to play, I don't rent them. I fully plan to buy Xbox series x for it's exclusive story driven single player games and I will buy those exclusives.

GP would have been amazing especially in our younger school days now there is limited time with family and work so those long games aren't as interesting 😂

When a developer says this game is 100 hours long I am like there goes ...

Sony will never ever allow gamepass on PlayStation. Just like Ms will never allow anything PlayStation service on Xbox. And we will see how big COD is without PlayStation fan base. Ms is playing a very dangerous game here of getting their fans minds being made that games on GP are enough and for 3rd they won't support it well. We already do see enough comments regarding games currently not on GP "just wait few months and it will end up on GP"

I guess this i...

I think a lot of the really talented people in the company have already left and started their own studios. It's not the same Activision or blizzard but I understand why Microsoft did it it's because they want to compete with Netflix Amazon and apple and they need content one thing this does is provide more than enough content but I don't think they're done acquiring more publishers I honestly believe ubi and warner bros are next

Also hopefully this means S...

Sadly we are to the point where a lot of our favorite games will be exclusive to some platforms. Sony will most likely counter so if Xbox gamers are Happy today will they be happy if Capcom and square belong to PlayStation. I think Sony wouldn't have done anything like that but now they have to react because from the looks of it Ms isn't stopping

They want as many games as possible because to them GP could be a service Netflix and they can charge a premium for it ...

Totally agree for Ms to make profits they will have to charge $30+ per month and have 20-30 million subscribers. People are so happy to pay $10 now but once Ms have enough studios and content they will be able to dictate how much they are going to charge and a 6 month commitment at $30 per month would be required

What's really sad is by end of this generation we will be left with EA and Tencent because everyone else will be bought out so w...

I really hope Sony buys square enix and Capcom because combined both will cost less than 12-15 billion and have major impact due to the amount of legendary IP's they own add Sega and that's perfect trio

Sony have a lot of money to spend and now I believe they will target big publishers. Sony can quite easily spend 20 billion on acquisitions. Sony depends on PlayStation to turn profit while Ms doesn't need Xbox to make huge profit ...

The console available on the shelves outsold the ones not available. Also Xbox series S is available almost at every retailer and Xbox series X is also becoming available in stores. While PS5 sells out in seconds

I believe xbox will pick up steam now that Activision is also their 1st party which is huge because on yearly basis COD sells the most. Hopefully this COD doesn't get yearly release and the quality of the series goes up

I don't know ...

For a brand new IP coming from a studio which hadn't done a AAA blockbuster since PS2 days it was a good 8/10

And something to build from but issue is now a days being a white male hero in a video game is a bad thing(and this is coming from a brown guy)

Sony gave bend permission to do a new IP so that's much more riskier than a sequel. New IP's take a lot to establish

Honestly all the good executive...

As a gamer not happy about it. Sony will counter now and we are a step closer to gaming monopoly. I was always against buying up big publishers but now Sony should buy up square enix, Sega and Capcom which will cost them combined less than 20 billion and they will have some legendary IP's

Ms will buy UBI I can already see it. They don't want people to own the games and instead want subscribers. Ubi is next mark my words
