Sony, Microsoft, and Nintendo have been talking about more and more over the past few months "people who want to see others fail in order for the green team to succeed - that’s not me. There were people when the Sony deal was announced, I could see it online, ‘what are you doing helping them out?’" We're also seeing cross-save and cross-play move from gamer pipe dreams to reality, and soon enough they're likely to just be expectations. We see this in all sorts of ways: from Cuphead and Xbox Live on Switch to Minecraft on every platform known to man.
A trailblazer for online gaming, some players are still holding a candle for Dreamcast.
such a shame, its my fav console by far. it was way better than ps1, problem was ps2 was due to come out, a year or so later, and many just waited for that, especially after the flop that was the Saturn,. (even though it way okay, it didn't sell well,).
ps1 did sell well, a lot of those fans waited for ps2. thus, the downfall of Dreamcast,,
I bought a DreamPi to play both Dreamcast and Saturn online! So far I'm only played with two people online with Saturn, and I need to spend more time with the Dreamcast community in order to play with them. I miss ChuChu Rocket online, good times!
P2P there's even Sega genisis games that still connect online based on this.
Hosted servers wasn't really something I saw regularly on non oc platforms until the 360 era.
The Dreamcast was easily my favorite console of all time, home of many good fighting games
EA senior staff has been investigated for sexual misconduct involving female coworkers, and these said people have been named publicly.
Aye just call Phil, i mean he somehow made Bobby Kotick's scandal disappear and gave him a few million dollar high five on the way out.
EA about to go down like Activision and then Phil saves the day saying.this is good for the industry and consolidation will help create competition. /s.
What's up with all these horny creeps. You gon be horny, fine. Just not at work take care of that shit before you go in. Rub one out if you have to. Don't be a creep at all. ESPECIALLY at work. But don't be one AT ALL.
"it seems that according to EA, given the events transpired outside of work between two adults, and the fact that once investigation has started that the alleged perpetrators didn’t do it again, the investigation is considered closed. [...] The victim still has to work with the people that harassed her."
Yep, EA is disgusting.
Paul Thurrott in a recent episode commented on the on-going Microsoft fiasco hinting at more job losses and that "there's more to come".
There won't be no more acquiring game publishers from Microsoft in the future . Xbox has to pay Microsoft back. It might take two decades to do that.
There really needs to be a class action lawsuit here. You buy these companies just to put people out of jobs. And it’s not like something happened to derail their plans this WAS the plan. Microsoft has no business in this space at all.
Ninja Theory, Perfect Dark, Crash Bandicoot, Spyro, Wolfenstein 3, Dishonored, Prey, Doom, Quake... something tells me that bad things are going to happen to these entities under Microsoft.
I'm all for this new direction. We gamers come out as winners.
Microsoft and Sony competing is good for gamers, them playing buddy buddy is not good.
Their direction seems to be: Services and quantity over quality. Probably a more lucrative approach, but not for me.
Gamers have a rare but vocal group of morons within them that is so self destructive they actively lobby against themselves. Car people have their favorite cars but they don't hope everyone driving the competition crashes or gets their vehicles recalled. Some gamers are that special brand of stupid that can only end up with them old and angry at the world for how bad their life sucked.
