"You might regret those games selling though..."

Trying to claim victory by bragging that Xbox will be funded by PS gamers is a choice — one that places great faith in MS to remain loyal to customers who are no longer their base and to invest money from their new base into a service that isn't sustaining itself.

You flipped from arguing Xbox releasing "big flagship games on competition´s consoles to damage and devalue the Xbox brand and its console itself, only makes sense in the mind of people such as you" to these "facts" you're using to spin this as a win for Xbox.

"Do you have a video link to Phil laughing about making big money out of multiple platforms?"

I do. Here it is!

"I believe right now one of the biggest risks to Xbox's survival, is that Sony paying teams to keep content off Xbox.

"[Shipping games on PlayStation] enables them to use the revenue they make from our content to sign 3rd party exclusive games to block from our platform.

That spin is a change in tone from "I can´t believe that Phil made his way all the way to the top, just to turn his back on Xbox gamers."

I would be cautious about going full tilt off of an implication that Xbox isn't willing to commit to by explicitly saying what they are implying.

The relevancy of the implication to why the game is delayed on Xbox covers a broad range from PS cutting an exclusivity deal to keep it off Xbox to the implication only serving as a distraction thrown out by Xbox that has nothing to do with Wukong's delay. Somewhere between is the possibility that the game wasn't also...

Watch for the sleight of hand.

Hint: Exclusives and launch exclusives are not the same thing.

"When asked about what this means for future Xbox exclusives, Booty reiterates that the teams are evaluating games hitting other consoles on a 'case-by-case basis,' adding that Xbox players can absolutely continue to expect many games to launch as exclusives, and that the 'Xbox promise' that all Xbox first-party games come to Xbox Game Pass ...

Metacritic is not the be-all; end-all it is often treated as, but PSVR exclusive Astro Bot Rescue Mission has a 90 critic score on Metacritic with a perfectly matching 9/10 user score. Speaking from personal experience, the game easily earns its score.

It's more impressive that it achieved that score despite the bias VR titles receive from critics. IMO, critics allow their grievances against the platform to affect their scoring of the games to a degree that doesn't...

This is what N4G is doing heading into MLK Day weekend?

(Who would have guessed what this would be about from seeing the thumbnail image, number of comments, and heat?/s)

This is why the site finds itself needing to do giveaways to revive engagement.

Trolls drive a lot of conversation. People are more inclined to address trolls if they perceive that moderation is not adequately addressing the trolling. Randomizing the winner from among the top 100 helps. What other safeguards are planned to keep this from encouraging trolling and becoming a troll reward program?

Reading your comment led me to the realization that I have never found Bruce Wayne relatable. If anything, I found Batman relatable. Bruce Wayne is so unrelatable that I question if he is more facade, the human mask that Batman wears, than a fully realized person.

That's my overall take on the character with the acknowledgement that there are bound to be some inconsistencies with a superhero comic that has been around that long. Overall, it's why I like Michael Kea...

Because the concept is that despite that they still have to live working class lives and have working class concerns, and the complications of navigating that existence are often compounded by a failure to balance their otherwise ordinary existences with that which makes them extraordinary.*

*The writers don't always succeeded at this for a number of reasons plaguing the mainstream superhero genre, but that is the concept.

People are missing the difference in degrees and conflating likeable and well written with relatable. Relatability has been a core concept of Spider-Man from inception. It's integral to the title to a far greater degree than many other superhero comics.

That word doesn't mean what you think it does, genius.

I guess one of the benefits of wearing out a word you don't understand and probably only discovered when people started using it as an ill-defined dog whistle is that your lack of a proper and consistent definition allows you to stay in your bubble by telling yourself something you would have otherwise clowned for being woke actually wasn't if it is financially successful.

Meanwhile in the real world...

They haven't gone broke.

Their games have been a success to the point that they can make money remastering titles, some less than a generation old.

TLOU is not only a hit video game but now also a hit television show.

Barbie is the bestselling movie this year.

"Why can't Z2g be allowed to prefer Forza over GT7 since he mentioned owning both games?"

Don't ask ridiculous questions. Z2g isn't being prevented from having a preference. Z2g hasn't been prevented from sharing that preference here. The melodramatic whining from you and others over how someone isn't allowed to have a preference or a certain opinion around here is tired. What has you bothered is that others are similar...

I struggle to formulate a response that truly captures how inane your comment is while staying within the rules of this site. Long sigh...

I'm glad you prefaced all those ridiculous false equivalencies by admitting that they are childish. No need to deal with them. We're in agreement that they are ridiculous. The issue is that you think that's equivalent to me calling out z2g for not mentioning VR. You are wrong. Here is why.

Last one. This person who bought a VR unit that cost more than the PS5 for fear of missing out on playing GT7 in VR somehow neglected to mention GT7 having VR in their comparison? Okay.

"ok ok ok. so i've been leaving a lot of comments about how i think psvr2 looks really awesome but that i'm not sold on it as i don't have a ton of faith in vr as a whole and the fact that while there are a couple launch games to truly get excited about, the bulk of them fe...
