Contrary to popular belief here on n4g, sod2 has a AAA budget, AAA team size, and will have a AAA marketing push. You know? All the elements that actually qualify a game as "AAA? After the first game, people asked for a AAA sequel, all indications are they have delivered. I can't wait to see how many zed heads I can bust with my car door!
I think ms are happy either way.
WTF are these headlines about? "Is it worth the return"? If you already own cd, it's free FFS.
I don't "k ow" of any1 called Hugh savings, is he Phil mcrackins business partner?
The quality of sources for articles on n4g continues it race to the bottom. "HUGH SAVINGS"? What the actual fuck are you doing?
@Scatpants snore.......show me a comment that isn't so pathetic. How can a Muppet a big as you fail this hard at putting a coherent argument together? /S
Anyone saying that this is anything like bad news are delusional ps fanboys. mike's lemonade, so you're saying "BC is unnecessary and a waste of time"?. I wonder, would you say the same of the untouched PS3 games on psnow that you have to pay again for? If you did your research, you would know that b/c is a feature which was a side project for 12 ms employees. As such it had no bearing on budget or time constraints. Maybe instead of bitching about a much used feature on your...
And cue the avalanche of anti xbox comments..... I swear, the only thing n4g ps fans say is "xbawx haz No Gamez", yet if a slew of Xbox exclusives were released tomorrow, they would say "dem Gamez iz shit", no matter what quality. Xbox has 3 aaa games slated to be coming b4 E3, how many does Sony have? Gow, and....? Please, tell me.
Wtf are you talking about? The Xbox launch window lineup destroyed Sony's. Remember knack and killzone Vs tf1, dr3, forza 5, ryse and killer instinct? Or what about 2016? When ps had uncharted 4, r+c, tlg, and sfv, Vs quantum break, dr4, fh3, gears 4, and recore? As I've said b4, people on n4g love to rewrite history, one day at a time.
"Microsoft desperately needs more than just sea of thieves"...erm, they have more than only sot. They have at least 2 other games coming before E3 that we know of. State of decay 2 and crackdown 3 both have spring 2018 release Windows.
Lmao at the sheer fanboyism on show here. Why do you all think Sony had to settle a class action lawsuit for losing among other things, cc information in the hack?

HA!..... HA!..... HAAAH! Yeah r8.
So what's the difference between starting a new studio, and hiring the best in the business from other dev teams, and buying another, existing studio outright to make games for you? Either way you are investing in talent to make new games. Sony bought most of their studios when said studios were already successful.
@LP-eleven yes, details WERE compromised, if you need links I could provide them, but I don't see why I should when the information about the incident is easily accessible with a simple Google search. I was a victim. They apologized for it, but that didn't stop the losses many ppl suffered. Look at how Sony handles people claiming refunds for hacks now, (according to the BBC investigation) if you claim a refund from your cc company, they shut your account down, with very little to no ...
@dirkdaddy so you are rewriting history? Yes, they DID keep quiet about the details for MONTHS, and about the major hack (because it was several intrusions that happened) for at the very least approximately 1 month. Why do you think they had to apologize? I, along with many other people lost money due to their negligence, don't try to cover up for them. It's why I will never trust them with my info ever again. I don't know what is more pathetic, them doing what they did, or people...
People also forgave Sony for allowing the biggest hack in gaming history to happen...and for then covering it up....for months....while people's credit card information was stolen.
So basically they are making a lot of noise while saying nothing.
As I keep saying, it sells enough to fund a sequel, EVERY TIME. Forza sells well to its audience, the only reason GT sport sold so well in Japan is because there hasn't been a gt game in years. How many copies does the GT series sell per year? Fuck all. Forza is THE defacto racing SIM. GT is not. Why do you think Sony tries labelling every car game they release as "the forza killer"? LMAO. Or do you prefer an online only shitfest that takes 5 years to make? Again, you don't ...
Oh, you know the forza sales figures? Please, enlighten us oh wise one, because the sales for forza haven't been released since ms said fh3 had sold over a million in a couple of months after release. Or could it be you are throwing shit at everyone to see what sticks? Forza obviously consistently sells enough to warrant a sequel, and that's all I need to know.
Bull....shit.
