Outrageous - sure others have increased their price of their games, but Microsoft could obviously afford to not do this
Also they chose December during a busy shopping period to announce this… Microsoft under Phil Spencer is so out of touch with gamers
"Who told you the economy will be better next year?"
The people right here on n4g told me

How very pro consumer of Microsoft to increase prices because GamePass exists anyway!
If Phil is as truthful as you like to claim him to be, two months prior to that statement they said there wasn't any plans to touch consoles prices so that should in theory mean he was only referring to games since he never lies.
Is that how you felt when Sony decided to charge for online multiplayer? MS led the way and opened the door?
Sony was not the first publisher to increase their price. So your notion doesn't stick. Now tell us how bad MS is being to their consumers for jacking up the price of games in every article.
You have never said it was inevitable that MS would join Sony in increasing the price of games. If so, why constantly call Sony anti-consumer for $70 games if MS was inevitably going to join? Make it make sense.
Can't wait for your "it was inevitably going to happen" response if MS raises the price of thier consoles.
At least it's not during the holidays and the economy will suddenly be better come January. I heard that from people on here that it makes the price increase okay.
I hate debates between two great games because all it does is cause people to say dumb shit like "x game is generic" when clearly both games are far from it.
Do you not hear what you are saying?
"Horizon did not deserve praise"
- Really? I get that you think BOTW is better but to say that horizon did not deserve ANY praise is crazy.
- "Horizon had "bad" gameplay and world"
Again,...
Remember when the armchair devs at n4g blasted Cerney for saying that teraflops isn't the *only* determine factor?
Hell no.
Just remake KZ2 keep gameplay the same and it'll thrive, I'm sure of it.
If this was the reverse, orchard would have dug that out and reported this article asap. But since it's the headline he likes, he approved it without worry.
I did approve the article myself, but it was my mistake for not looking further into it, but then again I'm not constantly looking to report and block articles I don't agree with all the time like orchard does.
It's all about the headlines for MS
Funny you say that. What platforms is SV6 announced for? Is it Sony's fault that MS turned down Marvel's ask for them to have a Marvel game of their own? How about SFV not existing without Sony's funding ala Bayonetta with Nintendo? And don't give me your bullshit conspiracies about how that wasn't case. Can only go by what was factually and actually stated.
Stop trying to justify the taking away of games and just say you want the deal to go through for...
Taking away long established multiplatform games from gamers is anti gamer, yet you are rooting for it.
Microsoft has COD/GTA/FIFA on their system right now. Why are they trailing behind Sony then?
Hint: You might want to rethink your "only care for" notion.
Well said. You won't see a response from him.
Lol
We want to create competition among game publishers by, wait for it. . . , buying up game publishers. . . you can't make this shit up.
Didn't it sell more on PS5 though? Never verified it, but I saw it said somewhere and if that's the case seems like most that wanted the game already have a PS5.
No doubt CDKeys will be the go to for a discount on Essential.
But Extra and Premium?
True
