Rossko @ FG: This week on a short and sweet episode of The Finger Guns Podcast Greg, Paul and Rossko talk all about Apple Arcade. Paul gives us a deep dive into a variety of games available, if it’s worth the money and whether or not it will appeal to those who aren’t really into mobile games. Is the selection varied enough for Paul to keep his subscription after the free trial? I guess we’ll find out in a few weeks.
Elsewhere we get down and dirty in the murky world of digital game pricing, and try to work out just why games on online storefronts are most always so much more expensive than their physical counterparts. Just how cheap can Paul get Far Cry 5? That is the question.
Not only that, but we talk Terminator Resistance after its reveal this week. Greg gets angry about Terminator Genisys again and whilst we came away impressed from the trailer, will it live up to that expectation?
We also talk hands on with FIFA 20, Deadly Premonition Origins, the utterly fantastic Sayanora Wild Hearts, Mutazione, Wreckfest, Monster Hunter World, Bus Simulator (again), FIFA 20, Apple Arcade darling Assemble With Care and more, including pre-embargo non-impressions of The Surge 2 and Yooka-Laylee and The Impossible Lair.
Love survival horror? Love physical editions of games? Limited Run Games have got your back as they reveal a physical collection for Clock Tower: Rewind on Xbox, Switch, PlayStation and PC.
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
I found this video painful to watch. Can someone list them out?
Top 10 for me from are:
1. 2013 reveal presentation
2. Bundling Kinect 2 with Xbox One
3. RRoD or why rushing to market with hardware is always a bad idea.
4. Buying studios only to close them.
5. Ads on the Home Screen
6. Letting Halo die.
7. Letting Geard of War die.
8. Every console name
9. Charging for Xbox Live on Xbox 360 when Sony let PS3 players play online for free.
10. Cancelling release of OG Xbox games after the Xbox 360 launched.
