Don't worry, we'll hear how many bullets were fired across how many hours from Call of Duty players who downloaded the game on Games Pass next year. Hashtag "success"
Obscure is working on his thesis on how to spin this.
Hahahahahahaha! xD Legendary comment.
I get it, you need to detract from all the terrible news going on about Microsoft.
The Helldivers 2 issue is over, fans have already dropped 200k positive reviews on the game as an acceptance that the mistake was rectified. There is no fumbling as the game hasn't failed yet.
Stellar Blade...that's yesterday's news. Try to keep up.
Well purple101 you'd have to convince Observer and the other Xbox faithful that these studio closures and the fallout from the acquisitions is a bad thing and a sign of what's to come, and I don't think you're going to do that.
Nobody has managed that feat.
Why? He turns Microsoft a profit and Xbox fans get all their "value" out of games pass while contributing nothing to the success and growth of developers, just like MS.
Win for corporates, lose for everybody else, which is what Microsoft is all about isn't it?
I'd say judging by the metrics Xbox and the fanbase has been supporting since the end of the 360 era, Phil is a winner. /s
Oh, and right now they're develop...
I don't mean to dumb this down and remove all the context of what brought us here, but maybe also invoke some agency and buy and support better games?

Slay the Princess
Final Fantasy VII Remake
Inscryption
Tales of Arise

These are all games I've played recently between PC and PS5 and they all fit your description and came with no b...
I dig this story, honestly. Fans called out a bad practice, Sony and Arrowhead fixed it, and now the fans are undoing their damage as opposed to just leaving the game review bombed for an issue that has been corrected.
Everyone wins here, really awesome from the community and game makers.
Welcome to the future under Microsoft as they work to consolidate and recoup their massive costs on buying publishers. Everyone who was against MS' acquisitions saw this coming, all the idiots who praised it as good for competition are now acting surprised.
Game Pass is NOT sustainable. Get it through your heads.
Microsoft will focus on a handful of core IP that will sell, but over time they're going to degrade just like Starfield and Redfall bec...
Great post. I went for a Nvidia RTX 3060Ti which was insane value for money when I look at the fidelity and frame rates I can push in most games including new releases. Can't justify spending 3 times what my card cost at the time to get marginal better returns or the big sell of "ray tracing", which is a nice to have feature but hardly essential given what it costs to maintain.
Touche
Your opinion is wrong. Change it.
@Lightning77 Well I thought it was pretty clear I was talking about a sub service there based on the paragraph you're quoting, but if it was unclear I'll take it, it's been clarified.
You need to understand the difference between putting a game on a sub after the sales dry up, or putting it on a sub day one. You also need to understand the difference between having a sub as a supplementary offering and having it as your MAIN triple A selling point. Then if you c...
It ain't real until LeBron tells us what this shoe means to his career.
@Nooderus Forgive me, nii-san.
Yes, we're only allowed to see Sydney Sweeney's cleavage, not pixelated boobies.
@Crows90 Absolutely! Requiem was one of my favourite games last year and the only reason I subbed to Games Pass for a month. I'm in exactly the same boat as you are. I have it on my wishlist to buy it at a discount to support the developers, but haven't been in a hurry because I played it on Games Pass.
Pity because it was a superior sequel in every possible way, and playing both games in French was a treat for the story.
I'm not going to watch leaked alpha footage that the developer never intended to see the light of day. I'm going to watch a proper showcase when it's ready.
Honestly I'd just be happy if we could get a Sony show this year that shows us gameplay for Wolverine, Naughty Dog's new IP and Sucker Punch's game, whether it's a sequel to Ghost of Tsushima or a new IP and Bluepoint's new game. Housemarque released Returnal in 2021 which took a bit over 4 years to develop, so hopefully they'll be ready for an announcement soon of what they're working on. Bungie... we'll see.
However with Helldivers 2, Stel...
Yes he's such a nice guy. The nicest suit who ever suited. Just the best damn gaming dude who wears gaming tees, not like those other corporates. The Philsopher of the modern era, subs before games, acquire before create. His feelings are so hurt and his tissues are so wet from tears at this totally unforseen consequence of needing to consolidate after splashing billions on devouring publishers and studios within and then being forced to start releasing multi platform to eat profits where...
