After months of waiting for what was supposed to be a free update to get the 2011 season, one can only imagine the shock from fans on the Xbox 360 side of the camp. While PlayStation 3 owners will get the 2011 season DLC for free, Xbox 360 users will have to shell out 160 MS Points.
GamesBeat: Five developers share their experiences on creating games at the end of the longest-running console generation.
"The Wii is the most successful of them all in terms of lifetime sales—Nintendo has sold more than 100 million devices, with Xbox 360 at 84 million and PS3 at 80 million sold—but only the PS3 and Xbox 360 continue on nearly a decade after they launched."
They have done well
In the end the cell processor will be a foot note in the history books due to the difficulty they all had.
Good to see Sony adopt the unified memory of the 360 over the previous dedicated memory, much more versatile.
Nothing about the whole gen being overreaching, overhyped and pretty much went in the wrong direction I bet.
"Xbox 360 at 84 million and PS3 at 80 million sold" dafuq ? do we live in alternate universes ?
Many developers had a hard time wrapping their heads around the PS3 during the console’s first few years... Is this the problem xbox one now finds itself in, I personally don't think so just don't think the box is up to the job either way Microsoft and their xbox one are gonna find themselves in the same place as the ps3, not a great position to be in hence why sony stepped it up as they didn't wanna settle for second best or 3rd even ;)
Barry Hoffman, Chief Commercial Officer at Eutechnyx, discusses the new Steam and mobile game, Warhammer 40,000 Storm Of Vengeance, in this exclusive interview from GDC 2014.
An uninspiring trailer of ‘Warhammer 40,000: Storm of Vengeance’ but backed by a Warhammer 40K license, deep down I yearned for something special to arise from it. Instead, I combatted in a dreadful attempt of a strategy game which successfully met my initial low expectations due to lackluster gameplay, uniformity, and outdated design. To make matters worse, Eutechnyx appears to have repurposed their previous game Ninja Cats Vs Samurai Dogs.
I think valve had the same problem, they wanted DLC free and MS said no and charged for it....I think it was L4D2, but not positive.
That sucks.
Its MS... Awful company, pirating Windows should be legal.
I didn't know MS did these kind of things, but thats pretty awful basically you're paying them 2 dollars and not the developers...disgraceful
Wonder how much it cost to maintain XBL. I know M$ makes some serious cash on it every year which is why I don't understand why they wouldn't let it be free.
