"best e-game for any girl or boy” from a man that knows near nothing about video games and their development inspires no confidence. Best thing for them is to just rent the IP name to someone like 2K or Konami and let them handle the hassle. They will never be able to beat EA Sports. Eidos kept Championship Manager IP but couldn't compete with the real thing Sports Interactive and Football Manager same with Harvest Moon/Story of Seasons

Re: Sony Has No Console Exclusivity Over Baldur's Gate 3

So they can't make run well on Series S and they decided it don't worth the hassle cause the install base is limited and also xbox gamers are spoiled by gamepass and don't buy many games outside it. Thats a weak point on xbox marketing. I got a Series S, i think its a great little console. The main problem for me is not the hardware limitations but the limited storage that makes it not the best deal in gaming on the long term. I mean you end up spending as much as X and still get lower specs

Re: Hogwarts Legacy Team Confirms DLC Isn't Planned

A quiddich game could need to be a stand alone spin off, and still i dont see how they make this game make sense. Quiddich world cup on GC had a certain charm but its a made up game that isn't that well thought, just sounds fun on paper

Re: Microsoft Admits Xbox Game Pass Is Harming Software Sales After All

I would like a more reasonable model. Game developers would still make profits selling games at 50$ instead of 70$ as long as it sells well. Its order and demand the oldest rule in capitalism. Avatar Way of the Water production and marketing total cost was like $1,5 billion, normal (non 3D) tickets werent more expensive than a low budget film. I don't want to have to chose between subscription model and 100$ games.

We must all say no to hate and discrimination. I must say though that JK is pretty progressive in general, she's entitled to her opinion about biological sex, and i don't see it under the banner of "hate speech". Anyway Dune's author had some pretty controversial views too. That wont make me boycott a great movie/game

Re: PS5 Soars in Japan After Sony Said Stock Issues Are Resolved

@SamMR Sony don't have the financial muscle Microsoft got. Doesn't got Windows. Microsoft can afford to lose millions every year Sony need to be profitable. Microsoft is spending an insane amount of money that threatens PS profit model.. Sony's market share fell near 40% in 2022 (mainly not cause of Playstation)

Re: PS5 Games Likely to Remain $70 as Xbox Bumps Prices

Difference between Microsoft and Sony offers is that the first company also offers all first party games on their subscription service, Sony does not. So paying 80€ for a remake like LOU is a harder pill to swallow. Don think ihats dirt cheap like others said.
