still trying to figure out how MS buying these companies and making their games dirt cheap to play is bad for me, the Xbox gamer.

It'll all go to poo poo if they get the wrong people in charge later down the line.

I'm saying that even if we trust Spencer and associates to do the right thing currently it always scares me when he or enough of his reliable associates step down and then suddenly you get some terrible people running the show trying to make a Halo Mobile DLC Fuckfest or whatever.

I was slightly disappointed at Christmas when I unwrapped a Series X instead of a PS5, because I had picked up on enough clues to know I was getting one of them and I had never owned a PlayStation before.

Today, I am a happy boy.

Looks like the Rainbow Six games are up on PC Game Pass, though they require you to use the Ubisoft Connect launcher (formerly uPlay), which is currently reminding me why I haven't used it in a long time.

Over promised and under delivered, sounds like Blizzard has been making Fable-like Warcraft games for over a decade.

Also this could be good for CoD going forward. You can see the creative attrition in those games.

The Grey posted:

I hope they move CoD to an every other year release and free up some of the studios for something else. Assassin's Creed got much better that way.

The memo thing going out to staff stated that they weren't splitting COD between different teams anymore and that it would be a group effort between the ones that were involved, which combined with their stated intents for multiplayer and warzone all sound healthier than the current approach. I don't think COD will be a yearly release any more but have a proper development cycle. I remember previously it was always very apparent that games were made by different studios as the difference in quality between Modern Warfare and Black Ops was huge during the 360 era, so what Xbox has outlined sounds good and not only better for consumers but also a big improvement for the developers as well. I think that they outright stated they know things are currently a mess with yearly releases and warzone being separate etc. so it should be a good culture change.

Microsoft is also balancing with Halo which is on 10 year support with singleplayer and campaign getting updates and other IPs like Doom and Gears of War, so they can afford to keep everything in the oven for a while and still have a big regular releases. And that's just in the shooter genre.

Oh yeah it's just that there's sometimes still a perception that it was a massive failure when it was a terrible launch but still a sales success and became something of a favorite in the press post price-cut after the weird final 360 Kinect years compared with Sony finally getting a true killer system seller with TLOU.



(see also: the PSP probably selling like, a lot more than most people remember)

It's just that the seventh generation was terrible all around so when I think of the bright spots of that time they tend to shine very bright. But otherwise good riddance.

I love the PS5 thread and all the regs but I have to admit the fact it’s like a goon sub-community rather than just a PlayStation thread about PlayStation stuff could be off-putting to some. But they should just join in with whatever silly discussion is happening at that moment and usually if someone comes in with actual game discussion it’ll get some traction
