From Xfire:
"Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick, in a one-hour earnings call this week, said "The folks at Rockstar Games intended to create a powerful single-player experience and a story-driven experience... and then developed in addition, a massive multiplayer opportunity over the past years."
This could mean that Rockstar Games is going to focus on single-player games and then look to expand them with multiplayer options. Of course though, it would be very easy for them to focus on the opposite, considering the massive run away success that GTA Online has had."
Wccftech discussed the recent Xbox news with MIDiA Research analyst Rhys Elliott, who pointed out that a strong upcoming Games Showcase could help a lot with fans.
I was hoping for something different from Coalition, not Gears 6 so soon.
Their expertise in UE development could've propelled them to try out other IPs using the new UE5.
But guess, given recent MS' state, Gears 6 was the 'safer' call for the studio. But still hope they venture other IPs or even other genres ... at least FPSs in future?
Why would people be less angry? If MS made it's own games instead of buying up what was already available then we wouldn't be in the situation that everyone is angry at.
MS is the problem.
Fuck MS and Phil. I already told that shit bag off on Twitter, if the dumb ass responds I highly doubt it, I will go off much worse. What a fucking disgrace MS and Phil are to the gaming community.
There are two reasons why all those Bethesda studios closed, and neither of them have anything to do with Bethesda (directly)...
Game Pass and Activision.
The guy confirming what we've all (well, most of us) been saying since the latest purchase.
Honestly i think Bethesda needs to buy themselves out of zenimax/MSs hands and do their own thing, i honestly think that would fix a lot of issues and save them from a potential closure.
Ah, we can see how the Microsoft media machine works.
Every article I read now is some kind of attempt to shift the blame off Microsoft and paint them as the victims or convince people that Microsoft mistakes were just some kind unforeseeable unfortunate twist of fate.
The shills are out in full force today.
It's greed. MS has the IP's it wants now it's dumping the studios that it's raided, MS will still make money from Tango's games unlike the people that made them. If anyone follows MS outside of gaming you'll see this is what they do, buy companies take what they want consolidate some of the workforce and shut them down. I don't know why people are acting so surprised when this is Microsoft being Microsoft.
MS is a three trillion dollar company, if it enters a market it has no need to compete, they take what they want and with the financial influence it can bypass laws that are meant to protect the consumer and the workforce. Just look at how they are cornering the AI market right now with buyups and investments.
Game developers have already started to confirm that they will support the Nintendo Switch 2 with their future titles.
With all the gazillions of money they’ve made off of GTAV online they should have no issue money wise making single player content. SP won’t even leave a dent in their bank after all the cash they’ve got now.
I wish they would throw in SP DLC but they probably won’t.
bull crap they will only go with what makes them the most cash
I'm disappointed that we didnt get any single player dlc considering how good Lost and Damned and Ballad of Gay Tony was. That being said, they have done a great job adding content to the online portion, theres just so much to do and so many things to unlock. I hope Red Dead Online gets some heists.
Ok, so Rockstar is making bank off GTA Online, more so than probably all their single player game sales combined, and you think they’re just going to focus on single player games and then tack on the money maker MP? Yea... I don’t think that’s how these things work. If anything I’m afraid they’ll give up on single player games.
Is that why we only got 1 new game last gen, but like a dozen new expansions to GTA Online?
