While these highly dramatic rants make for controversial headlines and ultimately get good readership, we at Zen can offer a completely different side of the equation."

Lol another sub service? Are we seeing a trend here folks? Is this the next step after battlepasses?
Sure, there was online gaming back in the day but the modern age of online video gaming began almost twenty years ago with Xbox Live 1.0.
Haha. Yep. To be fair, I feel that it was actually worth it because it kept a good minimum standard. There was horrible lag back in the day and a lot of cheating/hacking. More so than today.
That is arguable seeing as how good similar PC services are these days. The lack of cheaters on console is the closed ecosystem rather than extra effort by MS/Sony

The horrible lag back then was due to peole not having the speeds needed to run games, peoples internet speeds were all over the place. Hacking is as bad today, if not worse than back then. People now have access to sophisticated hacking programmes that were nowhere near as prevalent as they are today. Anticheat software was also available way before Xbox Live and the paid online services became a thing.
I gamed online a lot from 1999 onwards and had great times playing without having issues with people cheating and no one had to pay for an online subscription.
Zen Studios has announced Pinball FX, a new pinball experience, for the Nintendo Switch and it will come out some time late 2021.
I liked how ZEN brought Sony into the fray when their beef was with Team Meat speaking out on how working with MS sucked. Let's be real, Team Meat ain't the first devs to come out and say working with MS sucks.
No company can be 100% crap to work with. Im sure ms have had and will have many great relationships and experiences with devs just not as many as their competitors
They can't be that bad. Devs and publishers are still releasing lots of content for MS on Live. Some even exclusive.
LMAO Zen studios and Team Meat are having words for each other in the comments section ROFL!!
