Which copy of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 will you be buying when it releases on November 8, 2011?
The plans could be announced during the Xbox game showcase in June.
Until cod gets onto gamepass day 1 it's really just theory that it will hurt the overall sales I guess we will find out.
I think it will hurt physical sales a bit. But CoD makes the most money from microtransactions. I'm sure the amount of people that are gonna play it on gamepass will be offset by the amount of new people buying MTs
It depends. Even on Xbox CoD still sold millions of copies, this will canabalise a large portion of those sales, potentially hundreds of millions in initial revenue. With the assumption being it'll get more players from GP buying MTs.
But with poor console sales, GP is hitting it's saturation point on console and stagnating, and with PC being very entrenched in steam with gamepass not being that popular there, without a bigger install base it's not really going to increase subs by very much even with CoD. Are people really going to jump ship to monthly to buy xbox's and sub to GP to play CoD especially when it'll probably sell 15+ million on PS5 anyway? I doubt it, but who knows I might be wrong, it'd certainly be a bit concerning if the sub count didn't move even slightly from the biggest FPS on the market being on there, it's a gamble though.
Releasing CoD on GP definitely make the service more attractive, but I question the impact based on what I mentioned above.
They're damned if they do and damned if they don't. If they don't put COD Day 1, it would mean they were dishonest about Day 1 1st party games on GP. If they DO put COD Day 1 on GP, they'll lose a ton of sales.
I wouldn't want to be in Sarah Bond's shoes right now.
Seeing an AI disclaimer in a video game naturally incites distaste, but it looks like Stellaris has used AI as ethically as possible
While the good arguably outweighs the bad, there are still some valid concerns about Destiny 2’s approach to reversing weapon sunsetting.

Who is buying a copy of Battlefield 3 instead?
Doesn't really matter that much to me. CoD DLC is a joke. I can't believe gamers support this kind of shit. Last DLC I bought was for CoD4. I don't know were they got the idea to add only ONE map from the previous DLC(CoD4 had 4 maps at $10) and raise the price to $15. I thought I was outa my mind when I bought the Halo2 maps but this shit is getting out of hand. But the sheep keep paying for it...
No one
none, wouldnt waste my money buying the same old shit over and over with slightly different perks and new maps. bf3 is a must buy,probably even chuck out the other games cos once i have that nothing else will seem worth while playing.
