This year they added a category that promotes G.A.A.S."
Microsoft & Xbox have shut down Arkane Austin and Tango Gameworks to lay off more workers, insinuating that they're not in the game anymore.
They're headless for a long time because closing tango isn't exactly a good move
Everyone's acting now that game companies care about games and Xbox is committing the Ultimate betrayal, they are all like this and you have just been quiet about it for far too long
I wonder if Microsoft do pull out of the console market that it might open the door for valve to relaunch the Steambox. Competition is good for the industry but Microsoft don't even seem to be trying anymore.
“Your game has won some pretty significant awards and is a show piece for where we want to go in the future.”
1 hour later.
“We’re gonna have to let you go. You can’t cover our 100 billion dollar acquisition. Oh and take your awards too 👍🏾”
Sega has released its financial statement for the 2023-24 fiscal year, and profits may be up, but it's mostly not down to video games.
The Xbox brand is expanding, as an Xbox mobile game store is opening this coming July where Microsoft will brings its "first-party portfolio."
“Bond adds that they will start on the web”
This will go nowhere.
Nice knowing you Xbox. This is what happens when the house never gets cleaned.
The only this MS is expanding is the amount of feculence it sprays on everyone who just want to enjoy gaming and make games.
The best thing MS can do for the gaming industry is leave and never return.
I was wondering, I looked at this category and was like this is games as a service no? Glad you're acknowledging it.
I worry about this, its nice to grow a game but at what point does it become bad because new games arent being made?
He's got a point in this video to be fair. Look at the games nominated for that award, all games full of microtransactions to keep the game going. If we want to stop GAAS and mictrotransactions in gaming, then the last thing we need to is give out awards to these games.
I thought the same thing.
I wonder which one "sponsored" this category to show how micro transactions are "popular". How in the frick am I supposed to take this award show seriously?
