Haven't been this excited for a game in years and only game I've ever preordered. Its like botw for adults... Man, this is gonna be good.!!
I agree, it's amazing to see this kind of reaction from people. I mean, wishing for a publication to fail because they scored something a 7 instead of an 8.
These are human beings at the end of the day, working (I assume) hard to get an online and physical magazine out each month for people to read.
Every reviewer is entitled to their opinion, it's not like there is only one review that defines a game. There's like 20 different reviews that people can ...
No surprises really. Probably just shows that users of consoles and pc spend more/invest more on in game purchases as its a higher quality experience overall. In addition these same users probably love games quite a bit more than the more casual gamers on ios/android.
Thinking about it, everyone has a phone, I can imagine a ton of people downloading fortnite on their mobile but actually mainly playing with their mates on their pc or console.

I think part of the problem is that retail doesnt care who they sell to, the manufacturers/corporations don't care either as they are selling everything they make, plus scarcity increases demand whilst giving impression that their products are selling out and are popular.

Agree about Bethesda and I don't think Sony buying another studio is the answer here. Its understandable that the fanbase should look to try and outdo the competition but make no mistake, Microsoft needed a win, they needed to catch up with sonys ips, and have paid 7.5 billion to do so.
Not saying Sony should rest on its laurels here but I don't think buying another dev is the answer. Restoring confidence in their fanbase can be done in a number of other ways withou...
Playdead for me. Loved inside/limbo.
I'd actually like to see some of these acquisitions result in the devs retaining ability to make multi platform games. I know it sounds counter intuitive but I wonder if publishers (like Sony) could make more money by releasing games for the competition?
