Yes, when people don't have to pay extra for something, and things are included it could potentially have an impact of user or new adopters...its highly likely that with 30million GP subscribers and the new game update it could see a surge in users...so yes possibly adding millions of players to a game could be considered, saving it.

Like it or not, GP is a thing..kinda like when Guardians of the Galaxy devs said the game saw a good jump in player count after underperfo...

No it was 2 days ago that it sold more than any other console, no need to wait until next year.

The article you decided to comment on was referring specifically about Friday, 2 days ago.

And last year they had multiple exclusives, so what are we talking about waiting for? And btw..All gaming fans say "wait until E3" not because of peoples fluff about MS having no games...its because it's an event where ALL companies show new games and gamers...

Yes, yes that was then, look at the shift...why would they get rid of him now when he is in fact leading Xbox in an upward direction?

No matter the talk about major exclusives and all the other jazz, the Series systems is once again serious competition, and selling very well, and obviously cannot be ignored, if you agree with their actions or strategy, makes no difference opposed to the facts.

Phil Spencer will not lose his job over a attempted merger not going through. He is leading MS out of a dump that they have been in with the Xbox one...no way they fire him.

As a matter of fact he is set to receive an award next month.

Haha, how is Phil or MS sheltering Bobby? They don't own Activision/Blizzard..they have not one say in any of their leadership roles lol.

Man, do you people think about what you type before typing or is it just agenda based comments.

Define
"basically giving away"

You mean on a day where almost every company put stuff on sale, MS went ahead and put their console on sale? Oh wow..so desperate lol.

Btw, the article is specifically about the Xbox Series X, not the S....so either way your downplay comment is off base.

How doesn't it make sense?

Of all the gaming consoles sold and bought on Black friday...A massive sales day in the states....Xbox series X sold more than any other console.

One more time
During the special sale event(Black Friday) Microsoft's home console, the Xbox series X(I am 100% positive you know the console)..had the most people go out or online, and give a retailer their money, and in return received/paid for/bought the console pro...

Just finished Ghost song last week.its a lot like metroid.

Moon scars has all the making of a great MV, but the difficulty was extreme..and I say that as someone who plays all my games on Hard or more and love a challenge.

More lighthearted, but Guacamelee 1&2 were fantastic.

Same, I wish I had that much time.

between, work, the gym, family, and my social life...I have to fit in gaming time.

I said that.

Indeed, very addictive.

I played a great deal on PC GP in early access. I downloaded it on Xbox and all my progress carried over, I had 78 achievements pop up back to back, now I'm hooked again.

Am I missing something? I thought Darktide was due for Xbox console as well?

1241d ago 2 agree0 disagreeView comment

Dark, come on man

That is the thing, it did not sell more than CoD and you know it.

You are using this "Boxed" thing as a spin. You very well know that it did not sell more in users or money than CoD.

I say kudos to GoW even accomplishing that, but let us stop being silly, and running with the "It sold more" without putting the disclaimer of boxed units, which even the website reporting the information made very cle...

The game looks amazing, my son plays it on pc with a 2060 super and sometimes it looks real.

It did really really well, and congrats to the game, but come on, Cod already made 1 billion dollars in like 10 days.

We all understand GoW's success, but let us be practical...saying it beat CoD in anything other than "Boxed sales" at launch is a bit misleading, the article even makes that clear, so some of you are reaching by saying it "Beat " CoD...it's almost impossible. There are only 25 million PS5 out there and that is where it sold the mo...

Yeah, between ER and Ragnarok.

I haven't played GoW: R yet(plan to start this coming weekend), but ER was a phenom of a game. It took the industry by surprise just how good it was, It was so good I found myself thinking about playing it while at work or at the gym lol.

Gonna be interesting to see which one takes it home.

Obsidian are great devs, will check this out for certain.

On another note, if anyone likes 2d Metroid, Hollow Knight, or Metroidvanias, try Ghost Song. I am a few hours in, and wondering why I haven't heard too much about it... it's really good so far.

Well, to each their own, but I think Resident Evil 2 remaster is a better-looking game than Ratchet, and so are GoW:R, MS Flight sim, Forza 5, and Horizon: FW.

1246d ago 2 agree7 disagreeView comment

Sully,

I know right Kinda like Horizon:FW and GoW:R....if those games are gimped..I think I will live.

And if Hellblade 2 is any indication of what is to come, holly ish..because that gameplay footage was the best graphics on any system shown thus far, hands down.
