Not my cup of tea either, but I can see these becoming something of a collectors item and increasing exponentially in value if you store them in the box for a few years.

mikeslemonade2250d ago

Definitely will get them and wear them.

Sam Fisher2250d ago

Wait are the pixelated like the game, or they hiding it with censorship?

strayanalog2250d ago

They're pixelated, or something got lost in the Hedgehog and Puma translation... of course there's option three: stroke.

Tres212250d ago

They're hiding it. Its a teaser pic so it just looks really pixelated in the pic

Segata2250d ago

No, they said they will reveal what they look like later.

If the shoe actually looks pixilated like that it's pretty impressive, but my guess is that it won't. I dig the idea but the classic Sonic shoe in pixilated form would've been the real deal. I'm all for these gaming related shoes bc it advertises the culture, the recent PlayStation/Nike PG shoe was nice.

-Foxtrot2250d ago

Why not just replicate Sonic’s shoes he has on

Wasabi2250d ago

@Foxtrot

Good point well made.

link2Dpast2250d ago (Edited 2250d ago )

Those actually already exist. It's the retro ones with the gold clamp in front. There like vans, no laces. I think there only available in EU and CA and Japan. Seen a guy on my Instagram post them couple of months ago

I like em. I guess they'll probably be too expensive to actually buy though.

Kosic2250d ago

Looks like it's made out of Lego.

I'd much rather the PlayStation shoe that was released recently.

Xbox President Sarah Bond's Bloomberg Interview Is Corporate Fakery At Its Best

Saad from eXputer: "After Arkane Austin & Tango were shutdown, Xbox President Sarah Bond spoke with Bloomberg in what I believe to be utter corporate fakery."

gold_drake1d 18h ago

im not really surprised by that, shes always been more a "let me talk about something else than what u want to know" kinda gal

Cacabunga1d 10h ago

If what they are doing is that good, what’s the point of hiding the true story?

anast1d 15h ago

She's a caricature of the shareholders.

PRIMORDUS1d 13h ago

"Shareholders" I call them cancer, they are already rich to begin with but need more and more. It's like a disease, with no cure.

__y2jb20h ago

If you have a pension then you are likely to be a shareholder in these big tech companies yourself. To demonize them as 'heartless rich people' shows you have no idea what you're talking about.

anast19h ago(Edited 19h ago)

@Y2

Of course, it isn't about that. You are attempting to set up a self-righteous strawman to stir up some kind of ignorant mob mentality.

And by the way, most everyone is a touch heartless or we wouldn't be able to consume the products we do knowing very well how they are made. People have to be this way because of self-preservation and convenience.

__y2jb16h ago

@anast please explain to me how what i said is self righteous or a strawman. I simply pointed out that categorizing all shareholders as cancer is ridiculous.

Leeroyw1d 10h ago

I own shares in game companies. I'm not anything near a major share holder. I just want them to make good games and be successful because of that. I think it's the senior management that's the problem. They are the ones that should be making it clear to the shareholders what creates growth and ensures a future of their business. Not this weasle words garbage that she did on the interview. It was horrific. I don't know a shareholder that would be happy with any of them for this.

Profchaos1d 9h ago (Edited 1d 9h ago )

Same and I'm not rich by any stretch like most people's I'm just trying to keep my head above water these days most company's shareholders are made up of everyday people it's amazing how companies think we want something but the reality is we don't.

Disney are probably the worse at the moment it's shareholders voted on ending a lot of the crap and outing the current execs the execs turned around and said no we disagree with the shareholder vote

PRIMORDUS1d 4h ago

I meant at the rich fucks who have millions in the bank already. They are making so much per year, that if they don't make what they are expecting they go into a panic, when in reality it will not even hurt them at all. Those are greedy assholes.

anast19h ago

"you have a pension then you are likely to be a shareholder"

Pensioners don't make any decisions about anything. Obviously that is not what this is about.

CrimsonWing691d 14h ago

Yea, it was and it’s insulting that they think we’re dumb enough to fall for this. Look, the truth was you took a gamble on these studios and while they released some games to critical praise and great reception they just aren’t bringing in a ROI. Be transparent, you’re not a politician.

Just tell everyone you spend money on projects big and small and when money isn’t being made you go over the potential of revenue a studio can bring in vs those that can’t and make the hard decision to chop them.

She says this whole thing about “success” doesn’t fit one meaning for each studio. Well yea, a small budget production isn’t going to expect to sell the same as a large budget production.

One thing I wish they did though was let Tango be an independent studio.

TheGamingHounds1d 14h ago

disheartening to see no regard for the human cost of business anymore
the bad decisions and judgements of these CEOs severely impact the frontliners
these fake responses are just salt on wounds

RoadRacer1d 14h ago

imagine havin the audacity to say "we need more games like hifi rush" right after closing the studio that made it lol
followin up with this show of "deflecting every question" was in poor taste

StormSnooper1d 11h ago

MS is all about lip service.
