I am an employee of the Microsoft Gaming Division and they pay me to defend the Xbox One on the Something Awful Forums
I wonder if theyr're looking to expand gamepass to smartphone games now? I haven't touched a phone game in years but would it be possible with their own app store in android with free games tied to your gamepass sub?

I was excited to think of all the games that will be added to Game Pass, then I looked at titles Activision has released over the past five years. It's only one game if you exclude CoD and remasters. (Crash 4)

It's pretty dire. Both Acti and EA have huge catalogs that they simply refuse to engage with, and both (ubi as well) are reeling from multi-year development fiascos and public scandals.

What is the reason why Xbox doesn't have an equivalent "platinum trophy"? I understand not everyone cares but I really enjoy getting platinum trophies on PS... I like having an overarching goal, I like seeing the number of platinum trophies go up as I complete more games, and I like the memories I've made from finally completing some difficult ones. Does Sony have this cutting edge technology patented or something, or has Xbox just decided they don't care for them?

Xbox invented cheevos first and didn't do it. Nothing more than that. 1000/1000 is your platinum.

Yeah, in the same way as the recent Demon's Souls the skeleton is identical to the original games but the overall experience is transformed by new QoL features, fidelity, quick loading, and unification of content. It's a great remake.

Yeah idgi. All the companies hoard what they can hoard. Team Xbox people complain about exclusive hoarding and cheer corporate acquisitions. Sony fans grind their teeth over MS cash buying up games and gloat over final fantasy exclusivity.

Just chill out and buy both machines. Game pass is cheap to run on my PC and even cheaper since I play a major release then turn it off for a few months.

I was a bit sad when insomniac became a PS publisher because I bloody LOVED sunset overdrive and I wanted a sequel. Microsoft should buy insomniac off Sony.

Acquire owns Tenchu, Acti just publishes. I think FROM owns Sekiro with Acti publishing but who knows what strings are attached.



I wonder if MS will revive Guitar Hero. Can that business model even exist outside of the 00s?

If you've been a playstation haver for the past few years, the only games you could get FOMO over were Nintendo's first party stuff and the occasional indie that's exclusive to PC or Switch. Stuff that you might be able to categorically ignore depending on your tastes. The possibility of being deprived of AAA console games, probably after fighting to get your PS5, is a harsh reality for these gamers to wake up to. My barber has a PS5 that he mostly uses for COD, last we spoke he was considering subbing to GPU for a month so he could play the Halo Infinite campaign on his ipad lol. It'll be fun getting his take on this.

Video games are too big and take way too long to develop. Take all these studios and let them pick an IP and make whatever medium sized experience they feel like making.
