Why? I say,leave them out to save a few trees. With everyone having a smartphone and iPad these days, I think a free manual that you can download from the game's main website is a better idea and cost publisher nothing.
Wow, totally forgot about that PC made mod are on XB1 for a timed period. You XB1 gamers are lucky to get mod and a BC digital copy of FO3 as well. I am getting the PC version but I was hoping that FO3 would be made free as well. Oh well, enjoy.
Fair enough. I held off buying MLB 15 this year and see how everything went first as far as supporting the server for more than a year. If Sony pull the same stunt again, I am done with baseball. A minimum of 2 years should be the norm for sports game in regard to server support.
Great list. Shenmue 3 and FF7 are still ways away though but Uncharted 4 and SFV should be good first half 2016 releases.
Alan wake was a gem of a game. It was severely underrated. Glad BC will give this game another chance for many XB1 owners that had never played it.
@bmwfanatic,
"rookie I am sure Activision and sony know better than you"
Wait, so are saying other companies like EA are not as competence as Sony and Activision when they granted the Fifa marketing deal to MS when the PS was the preferred platform for all these years? Yup, I don't think $$$ got anything to do with it!. :/
The exclusivity will last a month. But I think most XB1 players will be occupied by the free Halo 5 maps so I don't think it is such a big concern to xb1 players at this point.
Edit @ bnwfanatic,
Like for real? Most of the buyers will consist of repeat buyers of the series for years. I am pretty sure they know it is a multiplatform game. During the entire MS COD period, I am sure PS3 and PS4 sold a few COD as well as it it is still the most sold series o...
more $$$$$$ was the right decision. Don't kid yourself otherwise, Activision
@EONJAY,
that quote from Phil states he "wants to win this generation" is not the entire story and what he meant by winning.
Here is the complete quote from that gameinformer arricle:
"At some level, it is a competition, and I've said before I want to win," Spencer tells us. "At the same time, I want to build a great platform for gamers. If somebody else does that to, and they do really well? Hats off to them, but...
@Eonjay,
You can't reply because you have no more lies to say or have any other Phil quote to post. LOL
It is just that simple.
And my quote about Phil talking about the meaning of winning a console war according to him is irrelevant when you are talking about the exact same thing?.
LOL, just admit you got busted and is trying to come up with damage control. It is OK, everyone made mistakes. :)
@Eonjay,
"His desire (and please don't put words in his mouth) is to be number 1 so if you want to start pointing fingers... start with him."
LoL, looks like you are the one trying to put BS in his mouth.
Please do some research before making up quotes by Lord Spencer.
Here is the exact quote from Phil when ask about winning the console war by IGN.
Phil:
"Making sure we have as many...
@bitbyDeath,
Whoa, you are really reaching there pal!. LoL, yarbie definition of AAA means big budget game that are published by major publisher. Scrabble may be published by UBISOFT, but it's budget is insignificant. I don't know why you are trying to twist Yarbie's words around. All the game I had mentioned are being published by MS, big budget, and will have a sizeable marketing budget behind it.
Lol, PlanetSide2 is a FTP PC port the has been ...
And there are those few select few that also like Superman 64 over FF7 or Metal Gear Solid 2 too. Hey, it is a free world and I respect your opinion even when the majority don't.
PlanetSide 2 and J-Stars? That is like a bit far reaching there, bud.
@Relientk77
"Microsoft thinks there's only 3 months in a year"
MS heard your cry, that is why Quantum Break and Recore are Spring releases in 2016. While Gears 4, Scalebound, Crackdown, and Forza Horizon 3 follow up nicely in the second half of 2016.
Of course AAA games matter and those smaller indie, niche titles don't really count. Console gaming is judge by AAA games and not old ports and niche titles that either can be played elsewhere or not many people care about.
If you guys want to count exclusives that way, then the WII from last gen is the undisputed champ because their exclusive shovelwares outnumbered the Halo and Uncharted of the world. But did anyone care about those minor Wii games? Don't think so. ...
@rainskacker,
You missed my point. I was responding to post #1 byDxTrixterz.
He said "2000 cars all premium."
And I said if that was then plan, then we will not see GT7 for a long long time and would rather them concentrate on a few hundreds and get it release much sooner.
?????? That is some spin.,in other words you are telling me a game that is online only and it is acceptable for Sony to shut out those people that pay their hard earn money for the game in the later stage and it is their fault that without warning, the game just became a coaster?
And add to that, barely a year...Sony shut down the MLB 14 server. I MEAN are you going to tell those folks they should buy MLB 14 at launch or just get MLB 15 to play online and and Sony did the r...
It doesn't have Uncharted 4 but SFV, No Man's Sky, Shenmue 3, and FF7 remake will looks and runs gloriously on PC. IF PC games Arn't even a bit concern over not playing Driveclub or the Orders 1886, I don't think they will loose any sleep over Uncharted. Bigger fish like Fallout, Witcher, and GTA are all that matters...not just in better performance but MOD!
I wouldn't trust Sony with MAG 2. I got hoodwinked into buying MAG and Sony prematurely shot down the server. :(
I think more than anything, Sony should definitely make an attempt to show up at the biggest European game show of the year. I mean, EU is like their biggest market and by not even being there, that is sending out the wrong message. They should let Europeans try out games like Uncharted 4, Horizon, Ratchet and maybe tease GT7 to the market where racing games are popular.
Don't know why they are MIA in Europe's main game show of all places. Maybe they just ran out of n...
