Many campaign fans were disappointed when episodes from Los Santos never surfaced. Rockstar explains why.
Windows Central writes: "Many PlayStation Studios games that are ported to PC get dedicated PS5 DualSense support, which allows users to experience haptic feedback and adaptive trigger support without actually having to own a PS5.
According to Hermen Hulst, head of PlayStation Studios, it's still the company's intent to launch the bigger single-player games on PS5 first, before later bringing the games to PC. This might not be the case for multiplayer games however, which are considered okay to launch simultaneously on console and PC."
My guess is after god of war. Probably last of us 2 that's a almost 4 year old game now and by the time it's released on pc it will be more than 4 years old or close to 5.
Former Activision studio Toys for Bob partners with Xbox to publish its first game as an indie. This is something of a homecoming, as Microsoft owns Activision.
Manages to buy their freedom especially after all the shit Microsoft has been doing with its studios lately
...
Goes right back to them as partners.
Okaaaaaay...
Xbox’s gaming division seems to still function as 3 semi-autonomous sub-divisions, Xbox Studios, Bethesda and ABK. The three main sub-divisions can seemingly shut down or build studios and set up partnerships independently. This would explain why Bethesda can recently shutdown studios, while ABK spins off one studio, while building a new one. Plus, Toys for Bob could be spun off by ABK, only to immediately re-partner with Microsoft.
PlayStation Plus has improved the split of PS4 and PS5 players on its priciest tiers, but Sony continues to hide total subscriber numbers.
I for one will be going back to essential at the next renewal. When I feel a game is good & right up my alley, I’ll check trusted reviews & just buy it.
I would like to see Sony add a fourth tier of PS Plus for people who just want to be able to play games online without any of the perks like monthly games, store discounts, or anything like that, and it should cost $20 annually, $30 maximum. There’s no way I’m paying $80 just to play games online. Even the original $60 fee was too much, and I would often wait for sales to re-up my subscription.
Just let my subscription lapse for the first time since 2010. Will sub again every now and then for a month or so to access my old ps+ games but for me it's the end of an era.
Let those numbers continue to drop because it is now too expensive. $80 per year just to play online. I noticed they didn't offer any discounts on the subscription or controllers during this year's days of play for the first time in many years and they will feel it when people choose not to renew.
My subscription will lapse next month and it will stay that way until further notice.
The closing statement gives me a certain sense of optimism:
"...for storytelling and a sense of immersion in a world, multiplayer games don’t rival single-player games"
Now, given that Red Dead Redemption was ALL about the immersion, I'd be a bit more hopeful that they don't go crazy with multiplayer this time. Plus, the setting/lack of commercialism doesn't lend itself to reams of DLC with trendy clothing and fancy cars. Could just be me being naive though.... here's hoping!
"As a company, we love single-player more than anything, and believe in it absolutely – for storytelling and a sense of immersion in a world, multiplayer games don’t rival single-player games."
No. Just no. I love SP, but if you loved it more than anything else you would have made it. You love the money GTA Online brings you more than anything else, otherwise we would have seen less of that and more of SP DLC.
I find it amazing that after all the work they must have put in creating that three protagonist system that they just abandon it. What a waste of potential..
just say money, don't sit here and treat your audience like idiots . .hell we can look back at articles with some of the voice actors you had them come in and when you saw how big mp got you cancelled them out . .and now you must have a new product coming and you want to bs us so we purchase your product.
lmao I'm sorry I didn't actually read the article I should have the gall of these people
"The good news for story fans? Rockstar not having the bandwidth for an expanded story campaign in GTA V doesn't mean no Rockstar games will have them going forward. "We would love to do more single-player add-ons for games in the future,"
sooo basically "nah no gtv v sp expansions but we promise on the next product ;)"
but with that recent article of mass effect 3 micro cards getting upwards of 16k purchases . .this is going to be a nasty period of gaming
