New notices sent to Gamasutra from D3 Publisher and Take-Two are implying the ESRB is seeking new oversight to officially rate publisher-produced game media and trailers in a similar manner to the film industry.
"They want you to believe the devs under them are super stoked to work generative AI into their processes," continued Gaider, "but I assure you what they took as excitement was really a veiled wail of despair not unlike the time that team was informed of their new 'really cool' live service mandate.".
I think anyone with some common sense knew this, im glad i don't support their games anymore, what a sh!t company.
I said this yesterday. AI isn't what we want when it comes to crafting artistry. Alas, these soulless corporate morons don't care about their work, only about cutting corners as much as possible.
Has the rapid growth of Xbox made the ship too heavy? Following the closures of Tango Gameworks, Arkane Austin, and Roundhouse, we explore what the future of Xbox could look like.
This ship was never meant to sail, this ship was made from the get go to sink as fast as possible. It almost feels that they want to lower the standards of quality in the industry so that they can fit in
Xbox has no soul and Phil has no confidence, and it's impossible to say either do when they killed Tango and Arkane Austin.
Everything they've said since has only made them look worse to a point that they're actually less competent than Embracer.
Whe you release something like the series S and expect it not to hurt your business model, and developers have to have parity with games. Then you know Microsoft don't care. Series s is the final nail that broke developers,
While on stage with Dina Bass at The Bloomberg Technology Summit the President of Xbox, Sarah Bond, was asked about the Xbox studio closures of Arkane Austin, Tango Gameworks, Alpha Dog, and Roundhouse Studios
Of course she did. She's part of the problem and will just tow the company line.
I always wondered why xbox had multiple leaders with similar titles like Phil Spencer, Matt Booty, and Sarah Bond, like, how many heads do you actually need?
Seems to me it would be more cost efficient to cut 2 of them instead of all those studios.
what big heads they are getting...
This makes sense. I think they are doing this because of the vibe they got back after giving Manhunt 2 a rating of AO.
The last time i checked i was grown and didn't need some group to monitor what i see and do. They might as well come to each and every gamers house, slap us across the face, and say " you are too stupid to make your own decisions". Hopefully all this will end when election season is over and the politicians go back to not caring.
WTF!!Now studios will release E rated trailers and more E games.
They are censoring the trailers this way (Forcing developers to use watered down trailers or face high ratings) Then how can they make a GTA or Mortal Kombat trailer and not get a 18+ rating?
Gamers didn't do much against Manhunt2 censorship and now they advancing even more. These aren't games but online trailers, ONLINE! They shouldn;t be censored and rated. And sites like GameTrailers and GameVideos already have age asking vids. Say no to censorship.
heres an idea for everyone, protest
