The audio boost is a game changer! Coming from a deaf person (60-70ish% loss in right ear and some missing frequencies in my left) this will be a huuuggee help! Always missing out on words in people's sentences in voice chat, unable to hear certain sounds in games (HELLDIVERS 2 NEEDS AN AUDIO PATCH and is the worse offender at this) or missing important audio cues. I've always been after an EQ control for console, so this may do nicely!
@KillerBoy I remember there being rumours/leaks a few months after Bungie were bought and layoffs occured, accusing them of Artificially Inflating the company net worth to Sony. Another reason why Sony is sick of their behaviour and practises and admonished them publicly.
@johncalmc @Dragon83 Another ex D1 & D2 player here. A great many of us are burnt out and feeling betrayed by bungie, due to their handling of the destiny franchise and the way they constantly flip flop around the game, pricing (giving ***** away for free a few months after release, or removing paid for content) or how the story itself is proceeding. Many players don't want to play Marathon as A) They don't trust bungie at all anymore so Apathy and anger is at play, B) Destiny fans don't want to play the game that contributed to the demise of Destiny and it's current state, C) they don't like extraction only modes and want a story with different game modes. Personally I was interested, but after hearing and seeing more (of how barebones it is) it's just a load of meh that has a godawful colour scheme. Feels like it was made by the colourful scene/emo kids of the 2000s that haven't grown out of pinky green zebra stripes.
@Beerheadgamer82 not just stifling competition but technology etc and then ruining brands/IPs. I also wonder if Bethesda will suffer more now? Such as bad management, more problems with their game engines etc.
@Loftimus finally someone mentions this! They bought Bethesda and said that they'll stay multi console etc. Next minute ALL of Bethesda becomes XBOX only. I.e very definition of monopoly problem

Re: Xbox on Charm Offensive to Push $69 Billion Activision Acquisition Through
@uptownsoul I can seriously see Bethesda suffering from a LOT more problems now. Shame as I love that company and their games.
