Speaking to Kikizo, Microsoft Games Studio's General Manager Kudo Tsunoda has made a few provocative remarks about the Redmond giant's rivals. Tsunoda, who joined Microsoft in January to help shape Gears of War 2, feels that his new employer offers more creative support than any other publisher.
"Every new game I've worked on I've tried to bring some innovation to the title, and not just be making something that's like a knock-off of some other game," he said. "And I think that's why I would want to come to MGS, and also why they would want me to work here. I think they're just always looking for people who can bring really innovative design ideas to the table."
"For some people working in games, it's so much easier to either knock a game that's already out there," he went on. "Or take pieces from a game and assemble it into something else. It's just like all the people who've copied the Gears cover system: "wow there's something that worked really well, let's put that into out game.""
Xbox 360 launched 18 years ago and was a generation-defining console that invited many people to jump into gaming for the first time and connect with friends around the world. We’re thrilled people continue playing their favorite Xbox 360 games on Xbox 360, or on newer consoles via Backward Compatibility for supported titles.
"we believe in game preservation"
Remember the media reaction when PlayStation wanted to shut down the PS3 store (but then kept it open)... where is that reaction here?
RIP Xbox 360 digital store and all its games.
It really grinds my gears that they are waiting till 10 days before closing to give the best discounts and the list as of now is 100 or less titles from the massive 360 library
I should have enough points by the weekend to get £25 credit off MS, (hardly ever spend money on xb1), might look at a few of these.
The Xbox 360 store was one of the only advantages the Xbox Series consoles had over the PS5. When I got my series X, I spent more playing Xbox 360 games vs current-gen Xbox games since that was the golden era for Xbox and several titles had enhancements such as 4k resolution and fps boost.
Closing this store will now only benefit the competition.
Backward compatibility works for many games on newer consoles, but titles such as The Simpsons: Hit and Run have been left out.
From base building to swinging willies, here are the best survival games around, which include a couple of less than obvious picks.
"It's just like all the people who've copied the Gears cover system"
Just like how Gears of War copied KillSwitch's cover system? CliffyB is nothing more than a thief. Stealing someone elses idea and acting like he invented it.
Lips, Scene-it, Boku, Forza....
Talk about INNOVATION
CLICK AGREE IF YOU AGREE, AND TAKE BUBBLES AWAY FROM 360 FANBOYS.
IF YOU DON'T GETFO.
One word: Lips
that's interesting ... how can you be creative if you don't have an office to be creative in? How many more studios are going to get cut? Epic is not under MGS and neither is Bungie (anymore) so please put on your development hat and not your publisher hat. I want MS to start supporting their OWN studios and push out some killer exclusives.
We all know sony are there the innovators. And besides the guy hasn't even work with sony. He is just sprouting fud like the rest of M$ PR's.
OBAMA!!!
