No one's really compared Microsoft's price comparisons to what the costs are really going to look like for people who already own a Wii, PS3, or Xbox 360, without removing all the extraneous nonsense. What does a price comparison with the bare minimum number of peripherals to get to multiplayer motion gaming look like?
Microsoft's Activision subsidiary announced today that it is opening a new game development studio to take advantage of the huge talent pool growing in Poland. It'll be the second Activision studio based in the region, joining Infinity Ward Krakow, although this studio is, in fact, not working on Call of Duty.
Microsoft is pushing for no "red line" for what games could come to PlayStation, and it all revolves around Satya Nadella and CFO Amy Hood's plans to increase every department's margins.
"The plan to move Xbox games to other platforms is codenamed "Latitude" internally, and I know there's debate and unease at Microsoft about whether or not this is a good idea. More upcoming Microsoft-owned games slated for PlayStation are already being developed. At least for now, they're potentially obvious games you'd most likely expect. And yes, while it's true Microsoft is a prolific publisher on PlayStation already, it has typically revolved around specific franchises like Minecraft. From what I've heard, Microsoft is pushing for no "red line" for what games could come to PlayStation, and it all revolves around Satya Nadella and CFO Amy Hood's mandate to increase every department's margins.

Yeah, they are going to kill Xbox hardware.
i think it will kill off the xbox brand. windows will be fine.
but there is and would be a chance that xbox might be killed off in the future. if they fail to make the money they put in. imo.

Forza and Starfield next?
In the words of Phil Spencer when he was talking about Nintendo last year
“It's just taking a long time for Microsoft to see that their future exists off of their own hardware"
With Arkane Austin no more and Lyon living for who knows how long, the superb Dishonored is in serious danger; Microsoft cannot be trusted.
I love the Dishonored series so much and really want Dishonored 3. Microsoft better not screw this up.
I mean, I think the fans will probably kill Arkane Lyon by cooking up reasons to hate whatever they do next without playing it. I've never seen a game so artificially disliked as Deathloop.
Lol, why don't we just say, we are worried about all studios owned by MS now. They will keep closing studios until they have none left ...🙄
I think it's becoming clear based on matt bootys comments there's no future for any IP that can't sell above 10 million within the launch window. But is also a small game that gives them prestige
/S it's beyond a joke right now
That's basically who it will appeal to. People who can't add.
Well to be honest, You dont need 2 sub-navigation controllers..
From what I understand there is no game (atm) that supports 2 player offline Move/Navi controller on one console at time.
Maybe RE5 Gold Edition will, but time will tell.
The thing is with move, you DO require atleast 2 Moves for the multiplayer experience.
And 1 sub-navi controller.
The price came to about 120$ for me. (with a 10$ off for combo deal).
But I still wish that PSMove was 40$ each, not 50$
Maybe the technology is still really expensive, hence the price. If so they have to make a profit somehow.
Three points I got about this "war"
-played both at E3. Kinect had all kinds of "requirements" in order to play, and even then it was still basically a closed doors experience and it still had plenty of problems. Move was easily walk up, grab the controller, hold it to your face, push a button and play flawlessly. No problems at all, it felt the motion perfectly, and was the better experience.
-MS is good at brainwashing people, exactly what they are doing here. Its gonna keep happening and its going to sell well for a few months because of this. The good news is if all these flaws still exist, it will only be a few months, and MS will lose the power of brainwashing people. Thus Move sales go up thanks to them.
-Need we bring up the HD DVD and Blu-ray war again? When Sony wants to push something new, they want to push something new, and nothing will stop them. Nuff said.
Does anybody know if the adaptor comes with the Kinect for the people who already own the old 360's? I know you do not need it for the 360s, but you do for the older console models. If it doesn't then that is an extra cost for the people who only own the original 360's.
