There are games on the market that costs very much money, games like Killzone 2 runs in the millions. And to promote a game, marketing is used, the ideal way to publish your game. But did you know that marketing can also run on high?
Rich Hilleman, an official of Electronic Arts said on a conference in the United Kingdom that they spend three times more money on marketing, than on developing games. This means that the advertising of a game, is much more expensive for EA than making a game.
"They want you to believe the devs under them are super stoked to work generative AI into their processes," continued Gaider, "but I assure you what they took as excitement was really a veiled wail of despair not unlike the time that team was informed of their new 'really cool' live service mandate.".
I think anyone with some common sense knew this, im glad i don't support their games anymore, what a sh!t company.
I said this yesterday. AI isn't what we want when it comes to crafting artistry. Alas, these soulless corporate morons don't care about their work, only about cutting corners as much as possible.
Has the rapid growth of Xbox made the ship too heavy? Following the closures of Tango Gameworks, Arkane Austin, and Roundhouse, we explore what the future of Xbox could look like.

Xbox has no soul and Phil has no confidence, and it's impossible to say either do when they killed Tango and Arkane Austin.
Everything they've said since has only made them look worse to a point that they're actually less competent than Embracer.

Nothing. It's up to the gamers to stop consuming content from companies that they don't agree with.
Microsoft spends more money on marketing and DLC than on developing games *In fact, the GTAIV DLC was more expensive for "MS" than the development of Killzone 2 for Sony
Sony spends more money on developing games than on marketing <---I think I prefer that
EA spots its in the ads
And it shows.
EA makes great games and markets them even better. Sony should take notes.
just like Microsoft
they keep putting adds everywhere
instead of repairing the damn hardware
