During their hands on time with the meeting room only build of Dying Light. Skewed and Reviewed report that a developer for the game told them he does not like the new Xbox One control and said he has hopes that Microsoft will make changes to it soon.
Microsoft's Activision subsidiary announced today that it is opening a new game development studio to take advantage of the huge talent pool growing in Poland. It'll be the second Activision studio based in the region, joining Infinity Ward Krakow, although this studio is, in fact, not working on Call of Duty.
Microsoft is pushing for no "red line" for what games could come to PlayStation, and it all revolves around Satya Nadella and CFO Amy Hood's plans to increase every department's margins.
"The plan to move Xbox games to other platforms is codenamed "Latitude" internally, and I know there's debate and unease at Microsoft about whether or not this is a good idea. More upcoming Microsoft-owned games slated for PlayStation are already being developed. At least for now, they're potentially obvious games you'd most likely expect. And yes, while it's true Microsoft is a prolific publisher on PlayStation already, it has typically revolved around specific franchises like Minecraft. From what I've heard, Microsoft is pushing for no "red line" for what games could come to PlayStation, and it all revolves around Satya Nadella and CFO Amy Hood's mandate to increase every department's margins.

Yeah, they are going to kill Xbox hardware.
i think it will kill off the xbox brand. windows will be fine.
but there is and would be a chance that xbox might be killed off in the future. if they fail to make the money they put in. imo.

Forza and Starfield next?
In the words of Phil Spencer when he was talking about Nintendo last year
“It's just taking a long time for Microsoft to see that their future exists off of their own hardware"
With Arkane Austin no more and Lyon living for who knows how long, the superb Dishonored is in serious danger; Microsoft cannot be trusted.
I love the Dishonored series so much and really want Dishonored 3. Microsoft better not screw this up.
I mean, I think the fans will probably kill Arkane Lyon by cooking up reasons to hate whatever they do next without playing it. I've never seen a game so artificially disliked as Deathloop.
Lol, why don't we just say, we are worried about all studios owned by MS now. They will keep closing studios until they have none left ...🙄
I think it's becoming clear based on matt bootys comments there's no future for any IP that can't sell above 10 million within the launch window. But is also a small game that gives them prestige
/S it's beyond a joke right now
dualshock 4 will be the superior go to controller this gen.
He doesn't like the Million dollar one.Controller? (slippery bumpers, and un-responsive sticks) -is it more money poorly spent?
We will know more in Nov. but seems like the DS4, is the go to controller this next gen.
Well that's not good (I mean, it's good if they make changes -- you know what I mean). I like the look of it, it seems to be comfortable. But this is one developer. More grip would be nice though.
''Although lighter than the Xbox 360 control and easier to wrap my hands around, the controller had some annoying bumpers. Many times during my testing I went to hot the top right or left bumper and found my hands slipping off them to the lower triggers.
Worse than that, the thumbsticks were very awkward at times and were not always responsive, especially when I pressed the left stick down to while trying to sprint.''
