Yes this is a bit of a weak start. But the Microsoft studio buying spree from 2018-Present means they are going all in.
Look at the PS3 fumble and the PS4 comeback.
Look at the Wii U failure and the switch comeback.
Let's face it, the Xbone was awful. I think Microsoft learned from their mistakes and are gonna redeem themselves this gen. The Bethesda purchase and the amount of studios they have now, cannot be understated.
It baffles me that Microsoft STILL doesn't understand that exclusives matter.
I would have done everything possible to make sure I had a AAA megaton game ready for launch. They are literally repeating the same mistake as the XBone launch.
Yes I know that was supposed to be Halo Infinite, but after that gameplay demo you can't tell me that is the best that they could do? It wasn't delayed because of covid, it was delayed because the demo respo...
Lol what? That is a hell of a stretch.
You need exclusives to lure you into a platform. It is very simple. Obviously Microsoft's endgame is GamePass subscriptions and they don't care whether you buy an Xbox or not. They just want you to play their games on a phone/tablet via XCloud, or the console/PC via GamePass.
If anything, they need exclusives now more than ever. They are building a cross platform ecosystem and that won't work unless you...
The 360 was sooooooooo great. The XBone was such a diaster, that I actually wondered if Microsoft gave up and would even bother with a new Xbox. It seemed like they didn't even try.
I just don't know what they are doing. They need new exclusives and new IPs. Why are they not addressing this very simple and apparent problem? I realize that Xbox is no longer a console but a platform via GamePass. You can play on a tablet, phone, console, or PC. But you still need some...
Brah. The PS5 launch lineup is just as bad as the Xbox Series X launch lineup. And that is coming from a guy who has the PS5 pre ordered.
This is easily the worst lineup PERIOD.
I'm a PC guy so everything is digital. If your on console it makes sense to stay physical for now, since PSN and XBL both have crappy sales and 99% of time it is cheaper to buy physical.
It's not a sequel or a remake. It's a remaster. We aren't getting a sequel because the first flopped sales wise despite good reviews. Gearbox likely loves the game because it has that crass humor that you see in Borderlands, Duke, and Battleborn. However, Gearbox likely doesn't want to commit to working with People Can Fly on a sequel because the first didn't sell so well. So a remaster is a cheap way to test the waters again for the game and see if there is interest. Slap...
I was shocked Knack is getting a sequel lol. Like who the hell asked for that!?!?!
I don't get why people give KZ3 and Shadow Fall so much hate. 3 is awesome and Shadow Fall was disappointing but still solid.
No way man. Uncharted 4 is the best of the Uncharted games. 2 gets so much love because the leap in quality from 1 to 2 was MASSIVE and that combined with nostalgia.
I like Destiny...yeah...I'm weird, I know.
I'm there day 1. One of my all time favorite games. It was an overlooked and underrated gem. Hopefully this sells well and we get a sequel!
Awesome
i mean switching over to PC as primary with a PS4 on the side ;) can't miss any Naughty Dog stuff
Her brothers built it technically...I just paid for it ; )
Nah man. If you do a 400-500$ GPU aka a top tier card, you will last 2 years at max settings minimum. And a complete rebuild at around 5 years. With minor upgrades like Ram in the middle which is so cheap. And you save a ton on games. Steam has like 75% off sales. They are crazy.
I've always been a console guy. However I just built my gf a gaming rig with the help of her brothers. I'm definitely going to consider switching over and doing one myself.
If this becomes a permanent thing, then it will be better to just get a PC. If you gonna have to fork over 400$ then 3 years later another 400$.
Probably Duke Nukem Forever backwards compatibility
I'm not a hater, man. I have a Xbox Series X on preorder, lol. I'm just saying they made a shitload of purchases in 2018. That is 2 years to come up with SOMETHING.
