Sean @ FG: This week Rossko and Sean welcome our old friend Tim Utley back onto The Finger Guns Podcast to talk the weeks news including the return of TellTale Games and what it really means, debating whether or not it’s really going to be the same without the developers who made their games as fantastic as they were. Is there a future for a TellTale that isn’t really Telltale? We also dive into just where the bloomin’ eck Sony is and if they’re wiping their hands of this generation in preparation for what’s to come. Are they going to ditch attracting indies to the platform for PS5 much like they have on PS4? Sean argues that they’re probably not going to and passionately declares it to be a reason to perhaps not follow Sony into the next generation.
The Outerhaven interviews Francisco González of Grundislav Games about his passion for Point and Click games.
The Xbox brand has done a lot of good over the years, but their various blunders are pretty wild to look back on in their magnitude.
Ironically number 9 can save them at this point (releasing games on multiple platforms)
Phil Spencer is the worst that has happened to Xbox.
They built a respectable brand up to Xbox one. Then this guy took over and things became a joke
Really good video.
I remember the days with RRoD was big news on here, N4G.
Microsoft had it turbulence number of years.
Looking at the success of Sea of Thieves despite being 6 years old, time to release Halo, Forza horizon 4 & 5 on PS5. It'll help their revenue
By the looks of it, PlayStation 5 exclusivity does not hurt the sales of Stellar Blade in Japan as the game has passed 90,000 sold physical copies.
Stellar Blade really deserves way more praise than it got, devs have been adding more and more content, for free, since release and the game already was great to begin with!
Stellar blade is performing very impressively there, DD2 didn't do well because word of mouth destroyed it's reputation and not about the Microtransactions or performance, bad word of mouth about how the game lacks so many things that were in the first one
Exclusives matter. No matter what bumbling phil and bond try to say, exclusives is why you buy a console.
They dropped the ball with dogma. SB is a solid game, it just had to weather the social storm.
