Re: Crash Bandicoot, Spyro Dev Toys for Bob Becomes Independent Studio, May Partner with Microsoft

Martsmall

They won't b taking any ips , and for them working on spyro/crash games I can't see that happening , think of it from a business point of view ,why pay for a independent studio to do a spyro/crash game when Ur already paying lots of studios of which any of them could be set on crash/spyro ? ,it's a waste of money , and they wouldn't get full control like they would with thier own studios, I'd put money on the helping out on some games once they are independent but not what ppl think

Re: Xbox Set to Announce Multi-Platform Plans Next Week

Martsmall

Amazing how many Xbox games are rubbish over the years and now oh Ill play blah blah blah lmfao not two faced much hey

@jsnow they haven't waved he flag at all it's money , The only reason they are doing this is for the money even Sony themselves are discovering that without games doing multiplatform with the prices of creating games they won't make Thier money back of them with one platform , why do you think sony are buying pc games conversion companies??? Remember how ppl used to say they would never put Thier exclusives on pc ...... That went well

Look at the insomniac leak they were told to make the games cheaper

Re: Baldur's Gate 3 on PS Plus Is Probably Never Going to Happen

Martsmall

Lmao most of these comments about Xbox game pass , you do know sony does subs services too right ? But they don't do day one ...say that to stray that went to Xbox after , And ppl can buy the game too amazing hey ? Like I do I have a choice , and zero proof Microsoft exclusives are going mutil platform apart from ppl on twitter but let's face it anyone that gets thier news from a rumour really should take a long hard look at Thier life ....wait what do I hear the boss himself said ... Yes he did mentioned Nintendo as well ( cod one of Thier biggest game which the abk deal is still in court about ) fallout etc all still multiplatform and contracts signed for Nintendo/Sony cod he didn't say all exclusives are going To everyone

Oh and some Devs praise gamepass they just be wrong hey cause you lot said so lmfao

Re: It's Utter Domination for PS5 in Europe as Xbox Continues to Lose Significant Ground

Martsmall

Ppl aren't gonna like this but it's the truth
Those who say Microsoft has nothing ....let's think long business term they make loads of money from cod /Bethesda /mobile games /licensing of characters like spyro crash etc and it's only been a few years since they acquired Bethesda and a matter of weeks since acti they are playing the long game they have income for many many years to come ...long term what has Sony got ? Thier big acquisition was bungie which ain't doing. Too well already and short term they shove out remasters cause it's a cash cow , the factions is where after so many years ???? Honestly from a business point of view Sony are short term and Xbox is long term , even if consoles died out tomorrow where does that leave Sony ? Bring out the last of us big moustache edition?.

It's the smart move by Microsoft

And to add to that Sony don't own the ip of one of their biggest hits ( Spiderman ) and before ppl say yes that do no they don't it's the movie rights they OWN the game rights are on license

Microsoft now own spyro/crash etc etc and the other ips ,Sony has spent too long rentjng the ips to be Sony exclusives over the years they been too busy in thinking yeh a one off payment to rent the milk instead of thinking we should buy the cow

Re: UK Sales Charts: Everyone Hates Modern Warfare 3, But It's Still Number One

Martsmall

It seems that a few ppl dont like cod selling now that's it's owned by Microsoft , honestly if you have a problem with this get on to Sony and tell them you want to stop cod on ps then in a few years time when Sony batter everyone that hasn't gone to where cod is with rubbish pay per win games blame Xbox or nintendo or anyone else
No matter what ppl think of cod it makes ps a hell of a lot of money and there is a hell of lot of ppl who will buy the game physical or digital it's simple as and Sony wouldnt like to do without that money

Oh and btw not me I'm not in to cod (especially multiplayer ) but it's about those who buy it and enjoy it and carrying on buying the proceeds are helping both Sony and Microsoft

Re: Microsoft Activision Deal Finally Given the All-Clear from UK Regulator

Martsmall

@Rmg0731 that's right every one should boycott acti games and the when Sony releases yet another lou remaster to try and make up for the billions they lose in cod renevue every year while Microsoft makes do with the billions more they make from mobile games alone , that won't b cutting off your nose to spite your face at all

Oh and millions upon millions of casual gamers ( the one and two game gamers ) will move to Xbox/ pc etc to play cod like Thier friends have ,that won't hurt Sony at all with them all paying money for the latest guns etc like Thier mates have

Re: UK Sales Charts: Hogwarts Legacy on Top as Armored Core 6 Drops

Martsmall

@Ravix it's a addiction already for me , I having a conversation with a friend and Im my head thinking I wonder if one of the spaceship parts sellers has a bigger shield in stock I can't help it lol
For most of the game what I've done is ...
A lot of smuggling contraband ( omg im han solo lol ) , stealing space ships and selling em ,boarding ships and taking everything that isnt nailed down....( even the dinner trays and empty beer cans )

Re: UK Sales Charts: Hogwarts Legacy on Top as Armored Core 6 Drops

Martsmall

@Ravix honestly I love the game and I don't say that cause its microsoft ( only played 20 mins of halo ,only done gears 1 ,don't like forza at all ) , i haven't itched to get back to play any game for a long time this has me itching ,I even woke up to go the bathroom at 2am and thought hmmmmm I need to upgrade my ship so spent another 4 hours on it even though I should have gone back to bed

A coupe of friends that don't own a xbox but have gd pcs we're watching my Discord stream of it and they went and purchased it right there after watching me play for 15 mins

Re: UK Sales Charts: Hogwarts Legacy on Top as Armored Core 6 Drops

Martsmall

@MrMagic disappointed ? Not at all in fact it's better than I thought it would be , I've put 1 day and 15 hours in to my game up to yet and I haven't even scratched the surface ( got loads of side missions and hardly touched the main story), and ill b honest I enjoy it so much I'm working out what stuff I can postpone in real life so I can spend more time on it

Re: PS5 Is Now Trending Ahead of PS4 Life-to-Date Sales in US, Despite All the Stock Setbacks

Martsmall

Hmmmmm I love how ppl think they know it all, let's take a look at the real non fan boy world

No hype for starfield at all
https://tech4gamers.com/xbox-series-x-1000-increase-sales-starfield/ someone better tell amazon they are wrong cause obvs ppl know better than them on THIER sales, no wonder amazon is a nearly broke company ....oh wait

Can someone email steam and tell them one of thier biggest top sellers isn't starfield cause there is no hype for it

They can't sell so many after spending 80 billion .....has the already gone through then??? No they haven't spent it yet

Re: Red Dead Redemption Out on PS4 This Month, Not a Remaster

Martsmall

@Beerheadgamer82 why would consumers worry about how much it costs when we get the upgrade for free ?
Sony could have done it easily with what money they have ,it's not about the cost it's about what the consumers want and as you can see a lot of ppl want red dead and who can blame em it's a amazing game

Re: Red Dead Redemption Out on PS4 This Month, Not a Remaster

Martsmall

I remember a lot of ppl on here saying yeh Xbox has backwards compatibility but who wants to play old games ?

Well it seems a lot of ppl on here do and are annoyed by the price ( rightfully so ), if they added something extra that Xbox don't already do then yes but £50 is taking the **** bigtime for something that anyone who owns a Xbox gets normally

Re: Dying Light Studio Techland Set to Be Acquired by Tencent

Martsmall

@KaijuKaiser but yet there are still updates to game like fallout /doom etc so not exclusive are they ? name one game they have taken off ps that was already on it ?.

All bethesda stuff exclusive after they purchased ....didnt they releases a Skyrim with mod support AFTER the take over ?

And can you send a link to this email that's says all Bethesda games are exclusive to Xbox please ?

Re: Dying Light Studio Techland Set to Be Acquired by Tencent

Martsmall

@KaijuKaiser "Same can’t be said for Microsoft"

Please show me one article with Microsoft saying they promise to make all games available on all consoles ?.

Funny how ppl around here take it a saying as case by case basis as we will put all games on ps

And before you say it cause I know the generic response...no starfield was never announced for ps

Oh and Microsoft did EXACTLY what sony was trying to do...make it exclusive
