@Tedakin - microsoft has shareholders just like any other company. and just like any other company they will have business plans and board meetings with targets etc - the question is how long will the shareholders support the strategy if it doesnt make money
thanks but i didnt want an article on what devs think of gamepass, wanted to see something around the actual numbers...ie game1 wasnt on gamepass and sold X copies, revenue was X....verses game2 which is similar and was on gamepass, downloaded X times, revenue was X, additional copies sold etc....
what im interested in regarding gamepass is the money that goes to developers - would be interested to see a comparison study done on the cashflow impacts on a dev for a pre and post gamepass for a similar type game.....because at the end of the day if a dev has lower cashflow then eventually game quality will suffer....
lol @ InUrFoxHole some of us actually have jobs (decent ones at that) so $70 is bugger all, so im an idiot now because i have money to spend on luxuries....?????? isnt that how life works? lmao
yep absolutely, while most of them were pretty easy there were a couple which just ruined it....one of them i spent probably 15-20 minutes trying to get them to sit still, followed all sorts of vids and guides but in the end you just had to put them down and hope like hell it didnt fall.....so frustrating
Yep I think ms knows they can't compete with the quality of games ps is pumping out so is throwing money at it now. They've very deep pockets so be interesting to see how long they keep this strategy up....at the end of the day though if ps keeps pumping out the best games it won't matter how much money ms throws away
i used to roll with silver teams in FUT and would love beating stacked teams (was tough but doable and enjoyable), but the last 3-4 years theyve made the gameplay so if you have a stacked team a lower rated team has no chance whatsoever....R9 off balance 30 yards from goal, the ball crossed in behind him and it still goes in the top corner from a volley? yeah right! all theyve done is made sure you NEED to have the top players to complete and the only way to build a top top team is to throw...
yeah great logic dj....ive been ps plus member since day 1 and have hundreds of games i too will never play but hey - least my collection is looking solid right?
until dawn did jump scares really well - especially when you could record it and go back and watch your reaction....had one of my boys watching it while i played a bit and some of our reactions were priceless, still go back and watch them every now and then for a bit of a laugh
i just finished it yesterday and have to say i didn't find it scary at all.....not really any jump scares like until dawn - and the atmosphere you could see everything before it gets to you....the forest game, in the caves i would rate fear factor quite high - not subnautica
meh gonna skip....platted valhalla recently, found the start and end portions were interesting - but most of the middle (probably 70 hours or so) felt like it was filler material, dragged on WAY too long
yep i stopped playing because of pc cheating - repeatedly getting one shot sniped in the head while flying a heli from 300+ yards away, absolutely impossible shot. turning off pc match making fixed problem but then took sometimes 10-15 minutes to fill a game.....no thanks
i had D:OS1 for a couple of years before i really tried to get into it...finally took some time to sit down with it and wow, was blown away, platinumed it and then got stuck into D:OS2 straight after and platted that too.....would have to rate them both up there in my fav rpgs ever.....loved baldurs gate back in the day so i cannot wait to see what larian do with BG3,
if you dont like these types of games why bother coming in here to comment? just making yourself look like a fool!
I couldn't care less about 10 year old games not being available anymore, as evidenced by the ps4 gen Sony is focused on bringing out amazing new content....what MS is doing is great for people who want to play old games
For me I want new content and experiences and couldn't care less about not having access to a thousand games that I'm never going to play anyway
lol im not upset and im sorry i completely forgot that im not allowed to voice my opinion on a public forum /s
maybe think before you comment next time!
does anyone else get sick of all this talk of BC and the ability to play previous games? i got a ps5 day one for one reason....TO PLAY NEW GAMES
if i wanted to play a game from 10 years ago then i could just fire up my ps2 or ps3.....but it has improved FPS you say? whoop-de-do its still blocky and looks awful!
Stoked that its on there been wanting to give it a go for ages...been looking for a survival type game after finishing the forest
lol bethesda acquisition means we get gamepass access to a heap of old games which we've already played (well the ones worth playing anyway) - and theres no dates on new games yet, ES6 is years away, starfield wont be this year.....come back when they do release and see the impact on console sales then
lmao...did you really come on here expecting some sort of sympathy? you dont have time to game but youve got time to post stoopid comments? lol sort yourself out fella
