Phil Spencer, director of Xbox, talked about the price of Xbox Scorpio and the affirmation of the analyst, Michael Pachter , who in recent days said that Microsoft will commit suicide if you put the console more than the $ 399 price. Honcho recognized that the device, scheduled to debut in a year, will be more expensive than the Xbox One S because it is a product for high - end consumers, but denied that Microsoft's success depends only on that decision or that product only .
Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick doesn't think AI will reduce employment or lower development costs, and calls it "stupidest thing" he's ever heard.
They already have AI trained to do coding.......
How he thinks it's stupid is beyond me, Especially since we see it happening in real time.
I think maybe sometimes we give people in these positions too much credit when it comes to intelligence.
As long as it doesn't effect his inflated executive salary or his ridiculous bonuses I'm sure he's fine with it.
As PlayStation announces its new strategy to encourage PC users to choose PS5 it is a bitter-sweet moment for PC gamers.
I mean, it's a business based on hardware market. Do we expect them to not even try? It's not like Nintendo doesn't do the same by not putting any games on PC and Microsoft until recently did the same. I don't care what they attempt, as long as they don't abuse the community or lie about their goals/requirements.
Will it work? Not likely. Should we care? No. Let them waste their time, it doesn't affect anything.
I wish them the best of luck.
But PC players are often a patient bunch, many will even wait for Epic launcher exclusivity to end until a game comes to Steam.
If they didnt buy the console when its games were exclusive, why would they do it now theyre not?
PC gamers are just too patient and loyal to their gaming set ups, something they've spent a lot of money on to perfect. They have backlogs of games which many never get round to finishing or get round to at all and will always have other multiplatform releases to keep them going.
Over the many years Sony has published so many awesome titles such as The Last of Us, Uncharted, Heavenly Sword, Infamous, Killzone, LittleBigPlanet, Dreams, Puppeteer, Resistance, Heavy Rain, Gran Turismo, Motor Storm, God of War, Horizon, Ratchet and Clank, Spiderman, Ghost of Tsushima, Bloodborne
If none of those games BEFORE all these PC ports convinced a hardcore PC gamer to get a PS5 console then why on Earth would porting them them to PC now make any difference? All PC gamers now know 100% is that they just have to be patient, which they are good at anyway to get a PS5 game 2 years later.
I get GaaS games or multiplayer focused titles but if people really want to play these games they'd have gotten a PS console years ago.
Who cares? Then just stay on PC and play the waiting game. No big deal. Sony wins in the end anyway.
I mean if there's any single player Sony games that I actually want that aren't on PC then I would buy said console to play them on. But the ones that I like that aren't on PC are few and far between anyway so no loss for me.
If I game, it's usually multiplayer titles, otherwise I like playing around with some other software.
ARK: Survival Ascended has introduced Premium Mods on consoles. Wccftech talked to Studio Wildcard and their partner Overwolf about the rising importance of user-generated content, especially for live service games.
So it's gunna cost more than $399?
Good luck with that phil.
I normally don't agree with pachter...but I think he is right on this.
Well the way he kept saying premium title and that it will be priced higher than the xbox s Which is what 299 at the lowest. ..you really think ms will jump from 1TB to 6 for 100 bucks more...with a bluray player new cpu/gpu higher ram...production costs...and the extra to make a profit from? Please bro, read between the lines here. If it costs 399.99 that will be cool for all that you get...but this is ms we are talking about. They released an underpowered console for 100$ more than the more power ps4....you really think they are gunna put more power into the scorpio and not make it cost you? ....here's hoping it's 399.99.....but my question to you is if its 499.99 or 599.99.....wold patcher be wrong? Will people flock to buy it? Would you buy that?
When corporate heads use phrases like " higher-end", or "premium" you immediately know that they are trying to justify why the product they are holding is going to be more expensive than it needs to be.
Spencer, just say the price...Afraid are you?
