It's not that I love MS... It's that I like Sony less.

I'm offended that you're offended by SanFranFreako being offended by SJW's being offended by inoffensive words... when does it end... when everyone's offended by everything? Being tolerant, not offended, is the way the world should work or eventually all of our liberties will be gone and everything will be offensive.

The real issue is that every small group of offended people think they can tell everyone else what's acceptabl...

Agreed! Check out these quotes:

"Until around the 1970s, people with physical disabilities were called “cripples.” That’s not common vernacular anymore, and when it is used nowadays then it’s often as a derogatory slur."

Cripple: A person with a severe limitation of a specified kind.
Disabled: Having a physical or mental condition that limits movements, senses, or activities.

"White people used to call Native...

They don't have to... they can continue to be stubborn and lose their place in the industry as it passes them by. Sony is pulling the same smug BS now that bit them in the ass at the start of the last generation, and the same thing bit MS in the middle of last gen. Sony needs to quit trying to elicit control over how, where, and with whom the gamers choose to play or they will fall again.

It's amazing to watch people go from, "I don't care about crossplay with other consoles" to, "Bethesda is in bed with MS" and "Bethesda games suck" just so they can keep their beloved piece of plastic from appearing less than perfect. News flash... it's not just Bethesda, but companies like Epic (as well as others) who are going to become increasingly frustrated with Sony's lack of maturity on the subject. Truthfully, Sony is screwing Sony fans ...

The second Dishonored was a bit better than the first, but the mechanics were still off, the AI was still poor, and the stealth was nowhere as good as any of the games it ripped off to even get the gameplay to where it is. Even the last Thief game, which was the worst in the series, was better than these. Hitman blows them out of the water.

TBH, I feel the same way about Dishonored as I do about Bioshock. Both game series are highly overrated. To each their own though! ...

The games both sucked, and marketing can't help that. The series needs to take a dirt nap, IMO.

Agreed. Also, I wouldn't say that Sony is relying on remasters in the first place since they have the most diverse first party line-up of this generation and have made the most successful new IP's of any first party devs.

OTOH, it seems that all of the remasters MS does now have simply been through BC which means that they're also completely free to anyone who already owns the games. GeoW Ultimate is the one recent exception (2015).

Really? It's not like the way MS launches 1st party games is recent news, but here, check this out anyways:

"Forza Horizon 4 will launch on October 2, Microsoft announced today during the Xbox E3 2018 briefing. The racing game sequel from Playground Games will also be available to Xbox Game Pass subscribers at launch for free. All Microsoft Studios games are free at launch with Game Pass."

Thank goodness this is the only dumb thing Capcom seems to have done to the game so far!

@ smokehouse

Why are you ignoring what Tom Raptor said about new studios not having chemistry because they've never worked together before? Also, when you state your preference, are you suggesting that you'd prefer MS just bought established studios instead? I'm asking because most of the comments around here, about MS' studio acquisitions, suggest that people would prefer that MS made new studios... instead of buy them.

Plenty of other reasons to fault Sony as a company, but games production and diversity is definitely not one of them. I don't like Sony's games personally but I don't hate them for not having the games I like either... it's just preference.

2787d ago 1 agree1 disagreeView comment

Yeah, first with all the acquisitions for Playground's second studio and now this set of hires for The Initiative! It seems like MS is finally getting serious about making talented new studios, diversifying their genres of games, and producing in greater numbers than they have for a long time.

Downplay much? It is defending. Just look at all the "manufactured outrage" there is in this thread by all the PS fanboys on this site.

They won't listen to reason, they're just here to talk trash because even though they're smart enough to know better they choose to start ignorant arguments instead.

How long will it last? Considering a new DLC drops every 6-8 weeks for the foreseeable future it'll last a long time. DLC adds to the lack variety you cite as the reason the game won't last.

@ Aspiring Pro Genji

"maskerade", lol.

Rare is not masquerading anything. They would not have added a fourth development team to support the game if it wasn't doing well. After all, they already planned six DLC before the years' end. Let's not remind everybody of what the game was at launch because it'll never be played that way by anyone ever again, and since the game is constantly evolving we can expect nothing but more to d...

Reminds me of Bulletstorm, but that's a good thing.

Yes. Quietly acquired six new first party studios to make games for the remainder of this gen and through the next. Why even bring this up when the subject is who will launch first? I haven't seen one reasonable post trying to argue why Sony will not launch first when all the available information to form an opinion points to MS waiting until after Sony drops PS5.
