Time will tell if that goes anywhere good, Capcom juggles like 5 key franchises and most of them bounce around from good to bad to good over the years. I think it will still be a while if only Itsuno is making them, unless they go directly into a sequel now instead of DMC.

I would guess we will know what is happening with CoD in June. The second showcase is definitely for the game, and "E3" is still where Xbox team is to make its biggest announcements. GamePass changes could probably go either way.

I generally don't expect any third-party AAA game that I care about to hit the game day one. I think there has been literally zero? That was more what I meant. The mediocre Jojo game that I'll probably play for 2 hours total was not high priority. It's been a handful of first-party games and...

This is part of why I'm bailing on GamePass, Jojo is leaving before I ever booted it, and I bought it for less than $10 new on Woot.

Now they reworked how the Fallout 4 performance modes function despite saying a week ago that the obviously broke Xbox version was working as intended. Now you pick desired FPS and graphics quality independently. Really they should have just give more PC options with this solution (shadow...

Probably, within 3 years since that's the timeline for the plan. I'm not sure if they would classify these as "HD" or "SD" for the strange wording they have, Probably SD I guess. They seem like a no-brainer port to all viable platforms though, and PS to Xbox ports are supposed to be relatively...

Square-Enix ditching exclusives after FFVII-2, XVI, and Forspoken underperformed? "Shift to a multiplatform strategy. For HD titles, the Group will aggressively pursue a multiplatform strategy that includes Nintendo platforms, PlayStation, Xbox, and PCs. Especially, in regards to major...

Not much of a win when it's the norm to have no games vs Sony's usual 2 or 3 GOTY contenders everywhere, plus the lack of third-party exclusives.

You can not import D1 characters anymore. The highlights were pretty much pointless, it would change a few words of dialogue early on but I don't think that still happens now. Nothing important ever transfered so remaking your characters appearance is 95% of the old transfer process anyways...

The Xbox team got reorganized after the Activision deal finished. Booty is the person directly in charge of the studios, and Bond essentially has Spencer's previous job as far as I can tell. I guess he won't be the only one jumping on grenades now...

Embarrassing interview. She completely deflects all questions except about mobile games. Q: "Why close the studios, why Tango when they just made a highly successful game?" A: Did you see Fallout on Amazon Prime? Q: What about people worried about future consoles being made? A: That's a...

Splitting FF7 into 3 parts was always going to be bad for sales of individual titles. It's bad enough that the first game is just as much a sequel to a 28 year old game as it is a remake. Selling additional sequels to that is an uphill battle because people don't want to jump in late. If they...

Not a great comparison. Stellar Blade is is published by them but not a first-party game, and being a Nier style action game with Korean coomer art style makes it at least a little niche. Beating Helldivers is more impressive, but that's a couple months old now.

GamePass is definitely a factor, it tanks sales of any day one game badly, and it doesn't seem like the subscription numbers are supporting the difference.

With the reasoning given in the Verge article, I wouldn't be surprised if Ninja Theory is dead in a year unless it wins a bunch of GOTYs. Their next game will take forever, it's not going to sell amazing, the founder quietly left, and they're not even really advertising Hellblade much. I wonder...

Yeah, Capcom and Atlus are really blowing it by putting out their most successful games of all time lately.

I wish they had just taken The Intitive off of Perfect Dark entirely. It sounds like an even more mismanaged internal studio than 343. Should have given full control to Crystal Dynamics if they have the team size for it. IO Interactive might have been a better fit if they end up not doing FPS.

The Stellar Blade censor isn't that bad, one costume with an OK looking addition, it's more that project lead kept talking up "no censorship" the last couple months and it stirred up the obnoxious part of the community. It's sounds like crossover outfits from Nikke is coming, if those get...

Yeah, the Deatiny free content includes the full past years seasons, and the current t battle pass. Theie website now says they below. Crazy they didn't mention this in their blog or social media posts. It would normally cost $100 (or around $32 on sale) to access the old seasons at this point...
