Modern Bonnie and Clyde?
Dedicated pc/console handhelds has little value worth while unless you are in Japan or play retro titles. Paying $500+ to play AAA games @1080p(if we’re lucky) 30fps (stable?) for an average 1 hour at the most is more of a waste tbh. An average persons life outside the house is usually busy doing outside life experiences. I play my ROG ally 90% of the time in my house. The novelty of handheld wears off quickly when I realized I’m diminishing great game experiences with distractions and inferi...
No matter what this project has gone through you can't deny ND has always tried to push for quality. Even if it is a GaaS they have earned that respect that they would pour their passion into it. I trust the ND process. Even if it gets canned I would accept that because ND wouldn't release subpar.
Fr. I ain’t paying for a handheld that will cost more than the ps5 just to play it at 1080p right next to my ps5 90% of the time

Gamepass in general is bad. In a future where subscription based service only exist the annual will need to be $300+ a year to keep triple A games relevant. It’s killing Triple A. Devs aren’t gonna make great games to sell gamers to pay premium when services are paying their dev cost just to make a quick profit. Disgusting.
Compared to Xbox, Sony has millions more diehards. The odds are higher for portal to sell more than Xbox S itself lmao!!!
Actually I’m surprised it’s not higher. Marvel movies average $200 million and that only takes a fraction of time to film compared to years it takes to develop a game especially with the unhealthy level of crunch.
For mobile. Disgusting
@Obscure
Lol you stated all facts that support my argument.
Sony knows when to cut ties developing a game that ain’t it. That’s part of the business. That’s what makes developers better not worse. That’s why sony has better developers.
MS mismanages developers and greenlights crap and rewards them. That’s why MS can’t beat Sony. Facts.
MS has a losers culture and Sony has the winning culture. Culture is high tide th...
Tbh if MS acquired a studio and makes it exclusive it’s pretty much bad outlook sales wise.
I doubt Playstation gamers will ever switch sides for any Xbox exclusive. Games sell way more on PlayStation and MS taking away IPs is a huge risk if you are developer.
I wouldn’t be surprised if developers are begging Sony to buy them over MS lmao
What people don’t realize is even if FTC doesn’t have a strong case they can fight this for months or even a year when MS really only has until end of July to get this deal done or they pay 3 billion break up fee. Time is against this deal.
I think it's a BS excuse. Ms can easily make a headset for xbox/pc players and put VR games on gamepass. They won't because
A) Ms don't sell enough consoles
B) Ms can't even sell enough games
C) Ms have a hard time making games lol
While Playstation is opposite of all that Xbox needs to focus on actually selling boxes before they even think about anything else lol
Interesting. I just realized about the fact that Sony revealed Fairgame$ (Haven Studios) and Concord (Firewalk) at the showcase at all. That means Bungie approved what they saw right?
I’m just trying to connect the dots. Those two studios were acquired after the Bungie deal. Deviations game was cancelled and they’re obviously not acquired. Would it be crazy to think Bungie has almost full control building Sonys whole Live Service talent pool too?
@Pocahontas
False accusations or not, non-violent or not. The law sees it as unlawful to act upon is it not? I understand your personal experience. It’s not easy to prove cases like this which is why it’s usually settled through money or gets dropped.
@Crows
How is it a crappy company and head when there are literally no evidence of them being crappy? That’s based on feeling not facts lol
Are you trying to say ABK is a crappy company because they make a lot of money? No that’s one real fact that makes them a great company.
Um actually rape is not easy to prove. Rape cases gets unproven all the time if there is no sign of struggle. Unless it’s violent rape I can understand. So it’s more than likely it ends up looking consensual.
There was never an investigation so we can’t base opinions on either side. All we know there was smoke and we never found the fire because Bobby paid it off. Why take a guess on llittle we know?
He was paying workers to keep quiet about bad workplace. Accusers were whistleblowing about worker misconduct and even rape. Bobby Kotick we’re paying them to keep quiet and going as far to have their pregnancies aborted. Although it was all rumors, it was never proven or probed because he settled for 35 million.

You been in the industry for many years as a journalist yet you are arguing with kids on N4G
Industry should get what they want. These are people working hard to make a living. You have convinced me you don’t care about the people who makes the video games. You have not even made a stance for the developers who have no governing control of where their future lies.
It actually boggles my mind you somehow speak for the industry li...
Nobody is talking about that Patapon reveal lol
