Mr. Fortitude posted:Oh God I just realized that with Microsoft now buying Activision-Blizzard, Raven Software is now a sister company to id Software again Wait what? I guess they'll buy Ubisoft next year and EA the year after that. While I don't like any of these companies I thought breaking them up would be a good idea, not consolidating everyone under the same brand.

Even if Microsoft buys Activision, they'll still only be the third largest gaming company so, uh, probably could get approval for that

So it wouldn't surprise me at all if they'll go after those other giant game companies.

Shadow Hog posted:This post is how I learned Microsoft bought ActiBlizz Same. I thought it was a rather casual mention for such a big acquisition! Then I realized it wasn't the Steam or Xbox thread and it made more sense. Good news for Call of Duty singleplayer enthusiasts I guess, since ActiBlizz is stingy with the sale prices for old cod.

The United States posted:You can get brand new "XBOX controller assembled in China from parts of the original controller" on aliexpress for like $22 and bargain basement imitations for $10 I probably should also note I just do not have the patience to deal with the added time ordering anything from China adds, I'm too spoiled by Amazon in that regard Mr. Fortitude posted:Oh God I just realized that with Microsoft now buying Activision-Blizzard, Raven Software is now a sister company to id Software again Wait what?!?!? Convex posted:capitalism is good for everyone! Wolfenstein 09 has it's flaws but it's still definitely one of the better Single Player focused FPS games of its time, probably because it's multiplayer was an afterthought made by another studio(from my recollection it was janky and not great but wasn't outright horrid either) so Raven was able to focus on making the single player portion good

A couple of weeks ago somebody said something about Activision/Blizzard splitting up? I don’t really follow what they’re up to these days outside of all the harassment stuff that just came out.

West of House You are standing in an open field west of a white house, with a boarded front door. There is a small mailbox here. > OPEN MAILBOX The mailbox opens to reveal a dusty M1 Garand fitted with a rusted bayonet. > TAKE WEAPON You reach to take the rifle, noticing a purple light glinting to the southwest. > GO NORTH Wooded Glade You are in shady woodland, surrounded by nothing more than brittle leaves and restless birds. The breeze rattles through the branches, sending a few pine cones loose in the direction of your head. You notice the arena shrinking in the distance. 28/30 adventurers remain. > Convex fucked around with this message at 18:08 on Jan 18, 2022 |

Also if it's a Zork BR wouldn't the fog instead be darkness and thus you'll be eaten by a grue?

thedangergroove posted:Battlezone 3 all but confirmed, sources close to my heart are stating Fun fact: Rebellion has bought Battlezone along with a good number of PC classics from Activision soon after the Blizzard merger (you can check the games they publish on Steam & GOG). That's how they remastered the two RTSes and made Battlezone VR.

It really was an amazing little snippet of a game that will never be. Gunfights in it felt so dynamic and interesting but never unfair, that automatic difficulty feedback thing they developed worked really well.
