It won't be your typical controller. If it's anything like the elite controllers then it's gonna adapt the paddles on the back.
Most importantly it's optional, no one is forcing you to buy a £150 controller, it's only for people who want the edge in multiplayer.

"We know how to take big games to market. We know how to publish and market these games in the Western market, and in the eastern side... so using these resources helps to get the game in as many hands as possible and that's what we're here to do for these guys."

They wanted their franchises to be more popular and I think Activision was the right choice.

They should make more prey games, the last one was pretty good.

"They tricked you well. Most companies don't offer digital demos and don't offer a way to return a digital game for a refund. But if you pay to try it, they make money. Pretty interesting isn't it?"
Yeah, I don't think paying £8 for a month to get access to 100+ games including first party games on day one is called being tricked....it's a bargain.

It's clear that your adament on hating Gamepass, so your trying desperately har...

Resident evil: Remake really was a brand new game to be completely honest, that game added so much I don't understand why capcom didn't use that as a precedent for future games.

Yeah, by the way he was talking, I don't think this is traditional Bioware stroytelling, it sounds more like The division's way of stroytelling.

Bioware traditional stories have deep choices thats only rivaled by few developers. I don't expect much of what Bioware is used in this game and its clear from the way they have shown off the game.

Yeah..I have rented games since 2015 and I have honestly bought the ones liked and the ones I didn't like I'm glad I got to give it a go. Gamepass isn't taking ownership away it giving you the option to try games you wouldn't otherwise try. It's breaking that massive price you have to pay to try a game.

You do realise that Sony and Nintendo are on the same boat as MS on services like Game pass. The difference is MS's service has shown more promise than the abysmal Psnow.
It also funny that Sony tricked their fanbase by making them think that Psnow was only for PS3 and PS2 only. They have slowly creped up added PS4 games to the mix and if your not thick, then you can already see why Sony spent a billion acquiring Gaikai.
All those petty harsh words you have for MS's...

I don't think accquiring Konami is as far fetched as it looks(MS have bought Mojang for a billion out of nowhere). Their worth must have decreased after controversy with Kojima and after 3 years of absolutely no games on consoles, I think they are ripe for an taking, if MS doesn't there is no doubt someone else will.

I agree about Itagaki, after the Devil's third he disappeared. The controversy with Ms is they have for too long been relying on third party suppor...

If it leads to games like Hellblade, Enslaved and DMC then yes they should accuire more of them.
I'm currently fed up with open world game and want something a little more grounded and something I can finish within a 1-2 week period(AVG of 10-15hrs long experiences)

They should really think about acquiring Remedy, Mercury steam and Access games as their fill in that criteria of mid tier studios

They should also invest or acquire a studio in J...

It's a bit of an overstatement.
But Sony didn't capitalise of Until Dawn's popularity instead they were commissioning VR game from them. They should have pushed for more games like Until Dawn(which was far superior to what David Cage has been making for the last decade).
Of course Bandai Namco is the real saviour here push to publish what Supermassive game wanted.

Yeah Nintendo 3ds....Atlus...how do you segregate fans like that.

It's very obvious that MS has to bear a cost to license their games on Gamepass. Its the same feature as Netflix, Amazon prime, and many other streaming networks do make entertainment studios release their movies and shows.

"If they all had a subscription service, people would be picking and choosing who to sign up to, nobody would be able to afford all of them."
Only the biggest publishers are going to have their own service, for example, the big ar...

@AspiringProGenji
If your refering to Sea of theives as an unfinished game then you have no idea what the premise of the game I'd about. It a game that grows and grows with update similar to destiny and the division. And as for State of decay then the bugs and glitches should not happen when launching a game. Next thing you'll try to attack Forza Horizon 4, Halo MCC and Crackdown 3 next. There are other games like Doom, ESO, Fallout 4 and many for games you can try if you fee...

Part 2

Don't get me wrong, Boomerang rental is my go-to place for games and so far this year I was able to catch up on all of the releases but the alternative is much cheaper and better.

If you use Gamepass, you pay £7.99 and get the games available at your fingertips and available to you in minutes depending on how your connection is. Ms also mentions that all of their exclusive will be available on Gamepass one day one, if that not incentive ...
