Many of you have been wanting to get your Xbox One X pre-order in since E3 2017. Microsoft recently apologized for the delay in those opening up.
XCOM and Marvel's Midnight Suns director Jake Solomon has founded a new studio to make a life sim game. Here's a new interview with him.
Wccftech interviewed Nathan Yu from Inworld AI to discuss the dynamic NPC tech's applications to games as well as potential issues like costs.
Saad from eXputer: "After Arkane Austin & Tango were shutdown, Xbox President Sarah Bond spoke with Bloomberg in what I believe to be utter corporate fakery."
im not really surprised by that, shes always been more a "let me talk about something else than what u want to know" kinda gal
Yea, it was and it’s insulting that they think we’re dumb enough to fall for this. Look, the truth was you took a gamble on these studios and while they released some games to critical praise and great reception they just aren’t bringing in a ROI. Be transparent, you’re not a politician.
Just tell everyone you spend money on projects big and small and when money isn’t being made you go over the potential of revenue a studio can bring in vs those that can’t and make the hard decision to chop them.
She says this whole thing about “success” doesn’t fit one meaning for each studio. Well yea, a small budget production isn’t going to expect to sell the same as a large budget production.
One thing I wish they did though was let Tango be an independent studio.
disheartening to see no regard for the human cost of business anymore
the bad decisions and judgements of these CEOs severely impact the frontliners
these fake responses are just salt on wounds
imagine havin the audacity to say "we need more games like hifi rush" right after closing the studio that made it lol
followin up with this show of "deflecting every question" was in poor taste
I'm excited for more details
Hopefully they announce that pre-orders are open this coming Sunday under the Xbox event at Gamescom. And it would be awesome if we got some news and video on some big Xbox One X enhanced games. I dont expect much more to be honest. Everything beyond that is just a bonus.
Doing it after Gamescom makes sense. Not as good as after E3, but it's still a trade show where they show off games and hardware each year. Shame about the FCC dragging their heels though. Government bureaucracy ruins everything.
As long as I can pre order one I don't care when they open it.
It seems all ms does lately is complain, and make excuses. The xb1x should have never been revealed until it could be preordered less than 6 months later. And if youre going to have 2 e3 showings, the 2nd one needed to have preorders opened that day!
Like dang ms you had a whole year to figure stuff out and by not opening up preorders the day of e3 2017 (when hype was at astronomical levels) youve single-handedly soured the launch of your own system. You know things are bad when even xbox fans are complaining.
If preorders dont open up the day of gamescom, things will be utterly cringeworthy. Either this was ms's plan all along or something far more serious... I cant see things magically fixed the day of gamescom... If it is id guess this was their plan all along.

It cant always be someone elses fault.
