No reason anyone should be on an Xbox One X. Gamestop has been buying them for $275. Xbox Series S have been widely available as well, if you can't get your hands on an X.
Doesn't matter how much they paid. That DLC was going to be made no matter what. They paid in exchange for timed exclusivity.
The Spider-Man DLC exists because Sony paid for it to happen. If Sony didn't pay to have Spider-Man put in, Spider-Man wouldn't have been in the game at all.
Vita in 2012 had.
Cross Game Chat with PS4 not just basic voice chat.
Listen to Music while playing
Trophies
Messaging was a given
Launched with an OLED screen
Also Bluetooth headphones support was available at launch not 4 years later like on Switch.
Sony made other stupid decisions with the Vita, namely proprietary memory cards. But the hardware was definitely ahead of its time in 2012
Sony is commissioning CD to create the Spider-Man DLC entirely. If Sony didn't want it, it wouldn't have existed.
Rockstar was going to make that dlc no matter what. Way to pick an example from 2009 which is not even close to this. The only think Microsoft paid for was timed exclusivity.
Sony paid CD to make Spider-Man for Playstation gamers. Did you want Sony to pay for the DLC to come to all platforms?
By the time PC players play it, PS5 players are already playing the sequel at 4K 60 fps.
If the PS3 and 360 can run fucking GTAV and The Last of Us 2. I can guarantee talented developers could get BOTW running on it.
I own a Switch, but let's be honest every Nintendo console plays the same games.
2D Mario
3D Mario
Mario Kart
Mario Sports
Donkey Kong
Smash
2D Zelda
3D Zelda
Pokemon
Animal Crossing
Even the map size of Switch Animal Crossing ...
Insomniac releases Spider-Man, 3 DLC, Spider-Man: Miles Morales, Spider-Man: Remastered, and Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart in the span of 3-4 years. Bethesda re-releases Skyrim for the 10th time after 10 years.
Did you want Insomniac Games, a Sony owned developer to make the game for Xbox too?
If you're a Marvel "fan" you would already have a Playstation anyways for Iron Man VR, Spider-Man, Spider-Man: Miles Morales, and the eventual exclusive Spider-Man dlc for Marvel's Avengers.
Microsoft definitely should have delayed the Series by a year. Dudes were literally playing the same games they could on their Xbox One and gushing about it lol.
It's EVGA's fault not Amazon's. No other cards were reported to be damaged just EVGA ones.
I'm saying they are lying.
"Microsoft Does Not Force Its Studios to Develop Sequels for their Games"
Lying through their teeth.
When Bungie wanted to leave, Microsoft made them sign a 2 year contract to make 2 more Halo games before they could leave. After they left they threw 343 Industries into Halo purgatory.
They cancelled Black Tusk Studios'(now Coalition) new IP so they can make Gears of War.
Perfect Dark is already getting rebooted.
Timed exclusive. Big difference.
95% of Insomniac's games have been exclusive to Playstation anyway. Also Sony has been trying to court them for year's! Yet they kept citing that they'd prefer independence. It's after their multiplatform game Fuse flopped with EA and Sunset Overdrive despite being an amazing game also flopped.
Once Insomniac hit their stride with Spider-man they realized that they're better off being a part of Playstation than not.
PS+ wasn't required to play online until 2013 with the PS4, 8 years after Microsoft. Is that what you consider "asap"? Make sure you google around before you run your mouth.
I think the Switch can stay for as long as it needs to. The Switch effectively combined the fanbases of Nintendo home consoles, the 3ds, and surprisingly Vita. All the niche games that will never push the XSX or PS5 feel right at home on the Switch.
If Xbox gamers cared about Sunset Overdrive they would've bought it.
"Microsoft never had that luxury"
Let's not forget this is the company that pioneered charging $60 a year to watch Netflix on your Xbox. They had free money rolling in every year but still only pumped out Halo, Forza, Gears for 8 years. They should've created new studios like The Initiative years ago, not the tail end of last generation. Now all of a sudden they dec...
This. It was a huge chore to play!
