who says nintendo would even want it? its never been on nintendo switch and they are doing just fine without it. nintendo is geared towards family games, COD certainly doesnt fit that mold. not a fan of COD or most nintendo games for that matter, but nintendo does their own thing and are very successful marching to their own beat.
dont think take 2 is looking to sell though. ea is out of their price range. id say they are likely to try and aquire majority ownership of the square enix japan studios, that wouldnt cost nearly as much. id also like them to try and grab capcom and CDPR. maybe try to increase their shares of fromsoftware as well.
lmao, yah they only have at AT LEAST one 1st party game in contention for game of thr yr every single yr. this yr they legitinately have 2 with HFW and ragnarok, also gt7 is great. next yr spiderman 2 will be in serious contention and square is releasing forespoken, FF16, and FF 7 rebirth. HFW DLC, exclusive remake of silent hill 2 and if rumors hold true, exclusivity for the remake of MGS. last of us multiplayer, yah that sucks so much. lol. they havent even had a proper showcase and...
they are going to raise the price on game pass and the consoles in addition to the 1st party games, you can bank on it.
sony decided they needed to raise the prices on their 1st party game at the beginning of this gen, to offset cost going up to make AAA games that are best of their class. MS raised their prices because they saw sony do it and it didnt slow their sales down and they wanted that easy money. way more slimey move by MS, especially how they tried to play the role of saintly publisher because they werent raising prices.
just like i cant imagine buying a current gen console with absolutely no 1st party exclusives worth a damn outside of the near annual forza game. to each their own. not saying gamepass isnt a great deal, but id rather have amazing first party titles even if it means paying $70 for it. plus i get to keep it forever. ill go out on a limb and say MS wont have a single 1st party exclusive this entire gen that will compete with ragnarok in both terms of quality and sales wise.
review embargo lifts on dec 2nd, same day as release.
i personally feel both of those franchises are FAR better than COD, but they could never match COD sales. sony doesnt have the money nor the man power to make a game that could threaten CODs dominance. if the Abk aquisition does end of going through(looking shakey at best) sony needs to resurrect franchises like killzone, resistance, socom and warhawk. i suspect they will buy deviation games and maybe even firewalk studios. i think with resurrecting said franchises and also their other li...
what a ridiculously stupid argument. COD isnt on nintendo. nintendo does their own thing and caters to families and kids, they arent even a direct competitor to MS or PS.
doesn't matter how much talent sony has, cod has undeniable brand regcognition. i am certain sony could build a better game than cod, but it wont ever be as big. cod has been the best selling game for MANY, MANY yrs now. not sonys fault MS is incompetent and now they just want to buy up all the publishers to try and compete.
dont know about you but when my favorite albums or movies come out i dont want to wait a minimum of 1 yr to hear/see it.
how about you try and inspire competition between the incompetent 23 studios you already own. lol
yah Horizon, ghost of tsushima, returnal, death stranding, dayz gone say hello. dony takes quite a few risks asctually.
lol sony absolutely trounces xbox in game quality, its not even close. yes there are alot of indie type that are getting brought to the forefront thank s to gamepass, but you have to also take into account the decrease in AAA games thanks to ganepass as well.
nah he didnt hand him any ammo. If MS wants
this to cross the finish line, they will have to put it in writing that it will stay on PS permanently and release day and date. not some half ass vague statements. they havent put it in writing because they dont want that. they want to try and force new players into the xbox eco system.
lol anyone that says this game is one of the best games of the yr has VERY low standards orr hasnt played any games this yr. games like ragnarok, HFW and elden ring tower over this.
@orchard yet they havent put it in writing have they? they have just made a couple of vague statements. if they want the aquisition to go through they are going to have to put it in writing that it will permanently be available day and date with the same features as the xbox version. ofcourse MS doesnt want that otherwuse they would have already agfeed to the terms
lol they arent giving them any kind of ammunition. the fact that 70% of COD sales are from playstation console is far more devastating to the abk aquisition. final fantasy has been synomimous with playstation for decades now, why put out a game that will sell poorly on xbox anyways? a large portion of xbox fans would just whine and grovel for it to be on gamepass anyways.
nevermind i misread that they were going to offer, not that they actually came to an agreement with nintendo. it is a smart move by MS to get the abk deal done. its not going to really benifit nintendo fans because it would be a horrible port, unless nintendo does away with the switch soon and moves onto thr next console. id rather either the deal get cancelled or approved instead of dragging on forever. i dont like COD games at all, so it wont effect me. maybe it will finally force ...
