WTMG's Aaron Price: "Overall, Sker Ritual was a lot more of what I wanted and way more than I could have expected from it. Is this going to be a Call of Duty: Zombies killer? Maybe not as of now, but it’s clearly a really good step in the right direction, as that series simply doesn’t care about having to improve anymore. Even though it’s completely different from its predecessor, Sker Ritual is a pleasant surprise, a well-polished game, and something I definitely plan to continue returning to often, especially if there are any big content updates in the future."
You can clear your wanted levels in Star Wars Outlaws by defeating the death troopers.
Senua's Saga: Hellblade 2 has received a substantial visual upgrade, and we've put together a comparison that shows the improvements.
Why market something that isn't designed to be sold?
This has GP rental written all over it.
They just posted a 20+ minute video about Psychosis and how the game portrays that through Senua.
Regardless of what Microsoft is doing (retweeting Ninja Theory is about as low effort as it gets, and Dashboard Dynamic Themes should've come months ago), Ninja Theory themselves are at least trying.
It's sad though. That new video was a really good behind-the-scenes too, and it just came at such a bad time.
How much marketing do games really need these days? People that play games know when its coming out. I really think the days of the constant tv ad etc are going the way of the Dodo. What scares me more is the lack of "previews" on big video game websites, it only got a few on April 4th and then nothing since.
Like always it’s going to come down to the games. Until MS releases that “must-have/system seller” title, it’s bit premature to say it’s a comeback.
You knee jerk fans are acting like Nintendo and Sony is just going to sit idle and not release any titles because MS is the process to make this acquisition with Activison/Blizzard.
I don’t know if I’d say that the Xbox One really made a comeback - but the smart decisions they made in the second half / during the Phil Spencer era certainly set them up for success with Series X|S. And Microsoft seems more committed to gaming than ever.
Hasnt made a comeback yet, we're still waiting. And after a decade of MS saying "just wait guys" it's put up or shut up for me personally.
really?, hmm lets see their exclusives ........... nope, still no comeback , their exclusive line up are still very stagnant since since more than a decade ago, maybe two or three years in the future MS finally see some fruition in exclusives cause all those publishers buyouts, still MS doesn't give a damn about exclusives they only care for money and it doesn't matter for them how they get their pockets fill with cash, and more than ever all their investments in these buyouts they need to put all those games in other platforms, I mean is just common sense, for example by the time a new COD comes out most probably the Xbox will get at les 15 to 16 million units sold and for Sony most probably 22 to 23 millions sold, so from an economic point of view seeing such investments MS is doing do you think they will put COD exclusive and for to Gamepass only ? hahaha keep dreaming , they need to recover their investment big time, MS won't ignore all the possible retail units that can be sold in other platforms in this case Sony, they will just do the Minecraft thing all over again, in the end Sony doesn't need COD, Elder Scroll, Doom, Fallout, Candy Crush lol, WoW?, in its console in order to be number one in industry, is MS that needs the most of Sony this time around lol.
Xbox One console was a flop, Microsoft discontinued it back in 2020 which pretty much says that it was a flop.
No spin or fluff pieces will change that.
