Yisus. I still play it, but they need more characters. It's honestly the besy f2p to play for me.

@Friendly

ABK won't kill anyone. A single franchise can't do that. The series might stop selling if it's not on PS, maybe. We have no clue how many will jump ships just for cod, and that's for next gen. This gen is another big loss for ms already and cod wonn't change that. Older and present cods will be enough for people not to jump.

Even then the deal should not be approved, even if I don't care about ABK, but because it really doesn't fix MS horrible management at making games. They have more studios than sony, more money to back those studios and still it is not enough, so please let us buy AB because we made multiple mistakes?

AB is also bad at managing games because they have all their studios making cod now... and diablo 4.

One random out of nowhere fps could come in and kill cod and that is that. Look at pubg, fortnite, apex legends. Anything can happen. It took fortnite a few months to become the most popular game... and still is.

This gamepass thing is a failed attempt to get fools believing in the best deal of gaming (it kind of is), then get them accustomed to getting less when they take the bait, because it feels like free. But it failed, because ultimately people can have fun for a whole year with just 2 or 3 games, because the games aren't bombshells of massive appeal and xbox's management sucks. Half of the xbox series x gamers must be so used to not paying, that there is no going back for MS.

The ones that think this is a good thing and ms will do good are short sighted. Even some are still in the denial phase. Can't believe some of them believe this would have reached 3 billion gamers, or 100m. Ps plus is a requirement to play online and that caps at 50m. Something that is a necessity for most that own a console.

I'm glad sony and nintendo didn't pull this, because they can actually make games that can sell and move units.

@Friendly
It's the first time I can't manage how many new games are coming.

@Green-Bandit

Uh. Lots of people here said forspoken was looking spooky. A lot. Plus ppl here didn't like the demo. I even had my doubts.

I never said if Starfield is bad, xbox gone. Just that it will be a crucial marker. If Xbox can't get the hit with probably their most successful studio in terms of critical and commercial success, they might need to turn a lot of things around. You can't go 3 years without your massive SP only game hit. Hellblade 2 might be the next one, but I don't feel like that game will be massive in terms of content. There hasn't been a word on what certain games will come in 2024. Their development is going soooo slow atm that I hope 2025 (yisus) is when they get their big hit.

Starfield is going vs Factions (maybe), FF16, Spider-man 2 and maybe ff7 remake part 2 (reaaaally doubt it). Just Spider-man 2 is enough to beat xbox's 2023 in terms of pull.

The only massive 90 plus game I am sure of is Zelda. That game has goty on lock. Re4 too, but that won't win goty.

Maybe FF16 and/or Spider-man hit the 90s, but I'm expecting more like an 88 at best

@Green-Bandit

I'd say (for starfield)
60s 5%
70s 25%
80s 65%
90s 5%

I wouldn't care much about Quake if that's the case.

@Green-Bandit

On the contrary, being owned by a trillion dollar company puts then more pressure, because they have to impress a trillion dollar company. They have to sway some of the 150m ps userbase.

If Starfield is in the 70s, they have failed their purpose and that's Zenimax money maker. iD could make doom 3 but it seems unlikely.

@Flaming_Kaiser

You probably have given royalties to worse people by buying other games.

Watch videogamedunkey latest video.

@Americansamurai1

I don't think Todd has had more pressure in his entire life other than now.

@Stocksy

Still remember the $120 xbox live increase.

@Americansamurai1

I don't think starfield will end xbox, but it will surely make them ask themselves again why are they in gaming (good or bad).

@KaijuKaiser

But they showed gow gameplay a year before.

@Green-Bandit

No ps4 remasters. Nada. Cero.

Not allowed. Prohibited. Banned. Sacred.

@K1LLEGAL

Everything. Has to do with everything, but people had years to figure this out, and they're not going to anyways.

@K1LLEGAL

Indie games don't have to sell in the millions. Them are not the problem.

@K1LLEGAL

Just stop defending the service. You clearly don't see resident evil, gta, hogwarts or elden ring being there. That's more than enough evidence.

@Green-Bandit

No ps4 remasters.

I've seen Bloodborne remakes threads and my brain wants to explode. Just why

I bought tlou remake on sale because of the show. It worked. God damn them.

Ps3 remakes are a waste of time tho. Dead space remastered was fine. At least demon souls I never played it and it did have a huge graphical difference.

@Korgon

Yup. Can't just go back. They will lose their players and that will hurt more.

Double edge sword. And one side was wider

@thefourfoldroot1

Yup. Mtx, dlcs, battle passes incoming (cought $20 halo colors)

@StylesT

That's probably what will the hardcore fans say from now on.

How many times they got told the service doesn't promote sales and is not profitable to make big budget games? How many times? With in depth explanation?

@TheCollector316

Not the people at purex. Now lets see the profitable part lol.

Good, star wars was coming for them, and I have time to play both

Great game. The game has a trans character so the haters have no reason to hate. Avalanche is not her. They have different ideals.

EA with wild hearts, dead space remake and star wars are off a good start. They realize they can't hang on to sports games all the time. Also it takes two.

Lets see if they can make Bioware and DICE great again.

EA is starting to turn it back again.

Yeah, but I didn't like the changes and they were extra stuff that wasn't in the game that could've been replaced by the game's stuff.

I can't take the two and a half men woman serious. Horrible casting with her.

@Ken_Kaniff

If this one is a really good one, you'll get excited for the next one.

@jimbouk don't forget elden ring

@KaijuKaiser

Rise of the robin hood? Sign me up

Two?

Sony about to bring a double barrel shotgun

Jesus. I don't know the devs personally, and like someone said above, if I didn't buy things because I don't agree with something with one the makers, I wouldn't have fun. Do not put all russians in a basket.

@trev666

I bet they support stuff they wouldn't like to support without them knowing.

@Victor_Meldrew

You should watch the mightykeef latest hogwarts youtube video.

With a big showcase, it might get to that.

But...oh well

@Green-Bandit

I think you're rural bandit. Are you from Austin?

They call me god because I make godly games. Good things come to those that wait. We just released mh rise and it's great on the ps5. Sf6, re4, pragmata and exoprimal are coming this year. Dragons dogma 2 will come to a theater near you.

@Green-Bandit

Yes, yes I am.

@lacerz

The stone cold truth

@Green-Bandit

Why?

Are you rural bandit?

@Godot25

Capcom is nobody's b

Kratos skin hasn't been there for 2 years. Aloy for 1 year. I don't get it.

@LN78

If it don't apply, let it fly, lol.

@DiggleDog

I think the hbo season 2 will put tlou 2 story in the RIGHT order.

@Balosi
It's why I hate battle passes.

Lets be honest. There are barely 300m UNIQUE people that actually consume gaming on the regular. If we take consoles and steam players to estimate.

When we see games like pentinent, hi rush, grounded, age of empires, bleeding edge, psychonauts 2, Halo Infinite missing components, Starfield not looking up to par, you start to see that they need smaller budget games to compensate for losing money with the service. Phil convinced other bigwigs that it will work out, and clearly he convinced them with gamepass being the netflix of gaming, but that is over as you see netflix bleeding money and games having longer longetivity so buying a game vs a movie is not the same. A movie might be 2 hours, a season might be 15 hours max, but a game can be 100s of hours. Gaming is a different media and services believers need to get that.

People thought series x was going to dominate because of services. Either they don't know how games are consumed or they got a very wrong estimate on how many people will actually benefit from gamepass.

Anyways, gamepass has been out for a couple of years, and the gap for budgets for xbox and ps games is starting to get bigger and bigger. I don't want a mtx forced engangement fomo style of games for my console that comes with the gamepass territory. Incomplete games, modes, dlc finished later and not pushing the console that was hard to find to the limit.

@Immovablegamer6669

I can't understand why people keep thinking this way with the evidence right in front of your eyes.

@SystemAddict

Nah. Nathan is actually funny. Not like bursting of laughter, but humorous. I actually like working with people like that.

@get2sammyb

I saw one of the clips and it seems the character is very similar to Nathan Drake. Idk why she is "cringy".

But yeah. Faaaaacts.

now this is a walking sim

A rental service won't be enough to compensate for the lack of exclusives from last gen and current gen so far (psychonauts, deadloop, minecraft don't count because they are on ps4/5). Ofc people will jump. ofc it was expected for ps to win again with the bad taste ms left last gen... and still is. Objectively speaking. I wish there was an actual competition (not buying publishers)
