Based on the comments here where a few weeks ago COD was the worst thing in gaming besides Fortnite, I see that Activision's marketing scheme to (1) avoid demoing gameplay while (2) turning gamers against journalists by (3) fostering an environment to discredit any type of valid complaint against them is working better than they could have ever expected.

Spot on, Six. It's so darn obvious when they oh-so-conveniently get to reference Battlefield in the tweet exchange.

N4G-people, please be smart and don't bite the bait. Remember, this is Call Of Duty. They neglected a campaign completely last year, and their last several campaigns have been shorter and lackluster. Activision could have attended E3. They could have had another public event to demo this game off. But they didn't, and they aren't. They're relying on social media triggering for their post-reveal marketing, us vs them arguments, hoping to end up on the right side of that stupid ...

Me too. It'll be interesting how in the span of a year, though, there'll be three different iterations of the Avengers characters (between these games and Endgame)

Well, the market is well enough that I can play several AAA games for dollars a month... Even recent ones

Dude, really? It's a single comment, not a statement on... Childhood dropout rates?

It says 1 hour ago, there's no way for me to know if we were typing at the same time or not...

If you want to keep something on Game Pass, support the developer and purchase the game. The Store usually has a discount as well

Why would the LGBTQ community complain about a gender non-binary whatever they are?

Controversial here seems to be just that people were pointing it out and taking about it, not that anyone was offended.

It makes more money than pretty much everything else. Epic is responsible for making one of the best and versatile engines in gaming; it's a guarantee Fortmite's success benefits Unreal (and by extension, every developer that utilizes it).

Disagree with their decisions, go ahead, but in hindsight, cancelling this game would've been one of the biggest financial mistakes any company could ever make.

It's a shame but they went out with a good end at least. The OG Xbox Splinter Cell games and Unreal Championship 2 got added which I liked

When the platform holder that's responsible for most of these publishers' revenue doesn't go, these publishers don't have as much incentive.

Especially when it's going into the 7th holiday of this console cycle and both platform holders are publicly discussing their next plans

Reviews and previews are opinion pieces.

If reading opinions is an issue, and you only want "news" as you define it, then you really limit yourself to just... The sleazy marketing schemes that's release shiny trailers urging you to preorder incomplete products.

It's been over 2 years, when are you going to get over that a portable console has worse graphics and performance than its stay-at-home non-competition?

For [enough people that a port of a 4 year old game is being made in the first place], "better" to them means something entirely different to you. It'll be ok, life will continue.

You're crazy trying to spin Pre-order DLC (on a 4+ year partial-game) to be comparable at all Character/Minority Representation.

You're insane to suggest there's any "achievement" in was Square "did" here. They announced the game 4 years ago, as an episodic Remake, that'll take who-knows-how-long to actually complete, in who-knows-how-many full-priced episodes, and they gave their jewel to that crappy B developer! But before giving us tho...

Neither does breaking one game into however many, but here we are.

I'll take the bait (because I don't care that I'm including summer games).

Luigi's Mansion 3, Pokemon, Link's Awakening's, Astral Chain, Fire Emblem: Three Houses, Super Mario Maker 2, Daemon X Machina.

All first-party published by Nintendo, seven big-box physical releases, before year's end. One of those games (AC) is a good reason for why we don't have Bayonetta 3 too.

My grammar is competent enough to where I know not to insult other's education and age when I can't even spell the damn word.

And regarding last gen - why the heck do we care what someone else said a *decade* ago about some other set of consoles? Nintendo sold 100m+ Wii's, then they sold just 10% of that for their next system. That's so much worse than how MS is doing today, but no, let's drag Phil through the mud over things his crappy predecessors did,...

It's not what they have today and it's not the reality of the situation, so stop saying things that Phil Spencer isn't even implying.

Do you know what a "business goal" is, to start? How about a point of reference... let's go with the company I work for. It's not doing so hot in its industry, and we lost quite a bit. We are not number one, not by a long shot. So, we have a business goal to, basically, "operate more efficiently."

Please don't talk about education when you can't even spell "educated", man. Since you are so adjucated and have full understanding of Microsoft's business goals, however, please, do tell me even one of the levels in which his statement is broken.
