It was less than 40 days between the announcement and cancellation of the sequel. Best guess: the continuing upward curve of Among Us made it something that worth gritting teeth a lot and dealing with the old code base and reworking it

@Zekk What they could have done was say "Releases At Sony PlayStation 5 Launch" or like how Demon's Souls had no release date, don't show 'holiday 2020' for Miles Morales, and then AFTER the price and release date, run a trailer showing your launch day things. Showing those 2, alongside Astro, Destruction All-Stars, Sackboy at least, and possibly Godfall, to show what games will be at launch and thus revealing their release date in the event while keeping the same fo...

Author here - wish Microsoft paid me to write this - cause then it would be a whole lot more money than the little I get. I don't own a Microsoft console, and won't - I am however preordering a PS5 for work reasons - and I don't need an Xbox Series device as I have a strong gaming PC.

That doesn't change the fact that everything around the event was a mess by Sony, and that directly impinges, in my opinion at least, on the event.

On the se...

If you put it at the end - that's fine. You shouldn't however have put "Holiday 2020" for Miles Morales and no release date for Demon's Souls.

My issue is how putting it at the end caused Sony to structure the REST of the event and creating confusion. Put it at the end and run a brief trailer of games available at launch would handle it and call back to the earlier showing where you leave off the release date

Not only that, if there was any year to give a pass for a bit of a phone in, I'd think this would be it with the pandemic, which also created chaos on rosters and league rules and requiring them to consider implementing things for that and the next-gen consoles.

I find it a bit weird the sports games are getting this all this year when it is a year with the biggest reason for having smaller advancements.

Well protect it for the next month until the preliminary injunction hearing. It ain't out of the woods yet.

And then you get the pineapple looking a weird colour just to mess you up further because of course it does!

Sure, they didn't mess up the ability to take money!

If it is, given its a separate listing and thus separate depot I would imagine that it will end up being a premium one like Black Mesa became. It would be very weird if that is a 2017 thing because the record just got updated

Been having the issue - even had once in incognito when I logged in and had to restart browser there.

Hell, had it in a browser newly installed just to test and had it after clearing N4G cookies all time.

It isn't anymore.

To go a bit more indepth - Gunlok was available for a good while on Gamersgate too - but that version wasn't working on modern PCs. On World War Zero - we're not sure what version the one on Steam is based on - We've been trying to get answers from Rebellion there to no real avail. It does appear to lack multiplayer, so my guess is its probably based on the last PC version, but no guarantee there.

Erik Kain is credible and generally posts these types of things in pairs. Forbes you have to really look at the byline, even more than most places.

They are hiding, just out of sight where you can't see them. The deadliest tourist trap of all!

Steam didn't remove Devotion - the developer did and the publishers dropped the game. At this time the developer hasn't returned the game to Steam and we don't know when or if they will.

Thanks for noticing! It's site policy that every reviewer finish the games they're tackling before they write down their thoughts. We're sometimes a bit late to the party because of this (especially if we're working from a copy of the game we purchased ourselves), but we feel like this makes our reviews a more accurate reflection of the whole experience.

Thing is - this almost certainly isn't going to hurt Activision's higher ups and is going to make the investors who feed these decisions happy. Instead, the people who try and do creative work or work within the bounds given are going to be eating the cost as Activision stores more and more in tax havens.

Activision is still making money - and a lot of it. But they aren't making ALL the money so they have to tweak it there. And while they do this, they give 15m ...

Replying here since it won't let me reply to your reply. It's for when they sell movies and anime and documentaries on there. There's a whole video hub in the Steam Store there
