That’s brutal, I was really surprise to see it drop digitally that fast

HaveSumNuts2017d ago

I noticed as soon as GameSpot and IGN revealed their review scores that the price dropped the next day.

TiredandRetired2017d ago

I'm just glad they had the balls enough to give it brutally honest reviews. Especially IGN, with their often over-scored reviews based on publisher relationships.

Orionsangel2017d ago

You shouldn't be. The game was manufactured hype. It's a cash grab. A shallow experience to take your money.

Strange_Evil2017d ago

Game dropped by 50% in just 9 days after launch. Talk about a slap to the people who cared to pre-order the game. Serves you right for pre-ordering without looking at the reviews.

SheenuTheLegend2017d ago

i hate pre order bonuses, well not the bonus actually but the offer itself. if you are paying full money, you should get full game

Muzikguy2017d ago

There was so much going against this game before release I don't know if I'd feel sorry for those that had preoders still. There are those that like it anyway so there's that too

carcarias2016d ago

I often think that they should at least offer early buyers some kind of in-game bonus or currency (if the game has them) when they drop the price that much, that quickly. Like you said, it's a real slap in the face to those poor sods.

Mass effect Andromeda all over again

badz1492017d ago

this game makes ME Andromeda looks like a GoTY candidate

I’m glad this game is sucking. Bethesda needs to learn the hard way.

Livingthedream2017d ago

Definitely not glad this game is terrible. Many people spent their hard earned money on this piece of doo doo, I hope they spend time on fixing it

Newmanator2017d ago

I agree but mine is so hard earned l at least wait for reviews...

SirenAries2017d ago

Many people are stupid for not waiting for reviews. don't feel sorry for dumb people.

bluefox7552017d ago

Remember when everyone was praising Bethesda when they made the decision to stop giving out review copies? I wonder if those people still would be on board with that move today.

Goldenhawk5212017d ago (Edited 2017d ago )

Well then it's their own damn fault for pre-ordering/buying on day 1. People should know better by now but many still do it anyway without any consideration and would rather just roll the die.

Livingthedream2016d ago

I don't necessarily think it's stupidity, I will most likely purchase the Next Gears of War, Uncharted, Last Of Us, Fable if it ever release lol, without waiting on reviews. I think most people believe that the majority of developers will deliver on a proven franchise. However, I do agree with you there are a few games I wait to be reviewed, and this would definitely be one of them.

Please, vote with your wallet! At least those who visit this site have some understanding of the industry.

Don't be surprised if they're now looking to studio acquisition.

Actually, I was thinking the same thing :)

As Fallout76 Crosses 20Million Gamers Amid Success of TVSeries, Todd Howard Talks Franchise’s Future

“Fallout 76″ has found a whole new world of players thanks to the popularity of Amazon’s “Fallout” TV series. The Bethesda Game Studios title, which first launched in October 2018, crossed 20 million downloads and plays as of Wednesday.

Obscure_Observer1d 18h ago

Impressive!

Hopefully Fallout 5 will be among next gen Xbox´s launching games.

-Foxtrot1d 17h ago

Yeah will be great. Can’t wait for it on the PS6.

Notellin1d 2h ago

What's the point of mentioning the platform you plan to play on? Tribalism.

Zeref1d 1h ago

Can't wait to not have to pay 70 dollars for it lol

ocelot071d ago

Will probably be decent on the HP Omen Xbox but not so sure about the Dell Alienware Xbox though. But I have high hopes for the Asus ROG Ally Xbox Edition running this game at a stable 60.

thesoftware73022h ago

Fox,
I'm sure MS can't wait either; all that money they will make.

Everyone wins.
Play it on Xbox, play it on PS, play it on your cell phone, play it on PC, shit, maybe even on Nintendo.
ALL=$$$$ for Microsoft corp, literally all these companies care about.

You new here?

It's Obscure_Observer...and I like to wind him up by saying what he would say to others

I'm not even that bothered, I just find it fun.

Can’t wait to play this, on my Samsung tv Xbox app,

I'm sure Sony can't wait to be part in 30% of Microsofts profit, without spending $7,5 billion + development cost.

All free money for Sony 👍

You think it's a positive but it's funny how much of a negative it actually is...lol

Though it would be nice i think tod with his team should stay away from it let someone else take the helm like fallout new vegas.

I also hope after all these success they do not make fallout 76 number 2 sense 76 is the most profitable game they made in the series thanks to monthly subs. Then you got the billion + they made on elder scrolls online.

First thing first is the new elder scrolls title they been working on and we got more updates for starfield to come out but one has recently added a new feature called interactive maps you can see icons along with paths now true next gen.....

So yeah with starfield being there "years" of dev time biggest budget/team size do you trust them with the next fallout title?

MrDead1d 3h ago

The next fallout will be on all systems as Xbox is their smallest market. You don't restrict your flagship games to one of the worlds smallest and shrinking platform.
Bethesda still needs PC and PS as we've learnt from recent layoffs thanks to Microsoft's greed in trying to ban multiplatform publisher's from their biggest console platform.

Obscure_Observer17h ago

Whatever happened to your claims that MS should be boycotted and ultimately destroyed due its greed and monopolistic goals?

You said that the only reason MS released Starfield on PC is because its a new IP, otherwise it would an Xbox exclusive game, as MS ultimate goal is to remove games from players, right?

Now you come to realize that all of your smearing campaign along with all of your doom and gloom prophecies was for nothing!

You don´t really care about MS being destroyed as long Playstation gets some Xbox games.

The moment you find out that neither TES VI and Fallout 5 will be making it´s way to Playstation anything soon, you will be right back where you were a few months ago, shoehorning how MS must (again) be destroyed. Smh.

"Bethesda still needs PC and PS as we've learnt from recent layoffs thanks to Microsoft's greed in trying to ban multiplatform publisher's from their biggest console platform."

Last time I checked, Tango, which released Hi-Fi Rush on both PC and PS5 got shut down while Bethesda (Starfield) do not.

Yes, MS is greed. Yes they do care about the money above most things like every company does.

But just like Sony, they´ll not put their flagship titles on Playstation while damaging their own consoles in the process. I though both Phil and Sarah were clear about that subject when they confirmed that a next gen Xbox console is in development.

That said, the thing that most people don´t realize with all that port begging nonsense, is that Xbox releasing all of its flagships games on Playstation will do nothing but hurt the Playstation brand in the end.

Let me explain:

First - If all games from Xbox land on Playstation, what real interest Sony will have to continue and invest in innovative and multi hundred million dollar single player games that they´re known for? None! I mean, why would Sony take risks when the competitor is doing it in their place?

In the end, Sony will just rest on their laurels by allowing Playstation to be carried by third party publishers and ultimately, Playstation´s premiere first party games will be no more.

Second - After the recent events, you know now how far Sony is willing to go to get that MAU from Steam gamers, they literally banned Steam gamers from 120 countries and regions for it. In Microsoft´s case, you also know they will demand Playstation players to connect to a MS account to play Xbox games, which favors no other but MS itself, because they´ll be "stealing" gamers from the Playstation´s player base, via the ultimate "Trojan Horse".

As a wise man said: "Be careful what you wish for"

Mr_cheese6h ago

Oh Obscure, the irony in what you're saying is crazy.

Fallout 5 will most likely be 80% generated by AI.

It's a good show. They are really good at live action trailers.

Huey_My_D_Long22h ago

Yall have alot to prove after starfield. Personally I think they will squander the potential for the game, but hey, I look forward to being proven wrong when its released.

RaidenBlack36m ago

Obsidian can still save the reputation with a banger spin off Fallout title whilst Bethesda concentrates finishing TES VI.
Only drawback is Obsidian will have to halt the Outer Worlds 2 development.

RaidenBlack35m ago

They wont.
Too many legacy program scripts to transition to UE.

4Sh0w18h ago

Yeah the TV Series was better than I expected.
