It's like an argument on twitter, someone tweets something (Xbox) & then the twitter police come in with rules, laws and regulations, (playstation), I am right & you are wrong and there is nothing you can do about it.
@Moto5 No but I have just looked it up after you mentioned it, it made my mind boggle, i ended up buying it haha, thank you the recommendation man, I've been playing antichamber that is fairly similar recently and a game called kubic.
@Serpentes420 Classics retro from the 80s, and beyond, games that have never been done before like indie games, not COD, FIFA, GTA, battle royale games, etc etc that most play, any recommendations young padawn?
I'm all for this game, because it's not the same regurgitated casual gameplay like most today, for example, get on a horse or in a car, go A to B going high and low whilst getting your hand held along the way with directions or voice dialogue's, find an item, add cosmetic clothing, use skill points for upgrades, solve a quest, watch a cinematic scene 20 times, beat a boss or a mini boss by hacking, slashing, shooting with a rifle, go to X Y Z, to then finish a check list. Games that leave me to my own demise having to use my brain by problem solving with puzzles or just naturally trying to find my own way is right up my alley, but most people get stressed out with stuff like that because they don't want to try, people are used to the same types of gameplay these days like mentioned above and if it ain't that, then it ain't good.
@Tasuki And those folks are the causal ones that buy the microtransactions, they buy a buffed out gun until it's gets nerfd at the next season, it's like these developers are offering a bag of dopamine too keep them engaged.
I have never really had any interest in their games for years ever since they went full sports live service only games, i haven't purchased an EA game for a while, since need for speed carbon/most wanted 2005 and FIFA street 2, but if Amazon ever did end up buying them it's better then tencent, I suppose.
I am getting to an age now, where games are a becoming a selective choice due to them been over the top, stress inducing, expensive/grindy, live services that don't respect my time. A lot of games are not well suited for my age category these days so seeing these fantasy meta verse forms of virtual reality entertainment coming into play is something that doesn't suit me either, Especially constantly wearing a VR headset so have a good one kids make sure to enjoy reality also but long live the old-school form of gaming & bring on The Callisto Protocol.
It would be dumb to not put call of duty on a system with 117 million users with a high percentage of them only playing & purchasing that game ever year religiously.
I'm guessing a remake but if that is the case I would rather them do Tekken 2, I think that game has the best sound tracks and cool cut scenes for each character.
I always remember going to block buster with my mother she would rent a movie and get me some bargain game deals that was 2 for 15 or 3 for 20 which was the low quality deal but you know you can't go wrong with that as kid with FIFA 96 thrown in for like 50p, as I got older I would go on my own a lot, I started to know the worker behind the counter really well a guy called justin (rocker/hippy type of dude) he would let me buy 18 age rated games by putting the disc in a different case, i come home one time and my mother went mad, good times.
I think this is the perfect time for people on PlayStation to move over and have some fun on Xbox, with game pass as the cherry on top, it's the other way for me, I never purchased the PS4 last gen but got the PS5 this generation, ps plus is going to be a big bargain, but I have a pc to always fall back on for example starfield.
It will also be for azure (xcloud, psnow), remember Microsoft and Sony near enough use the same chip in the console's and in the servers but Sony pay Microsoft to use the server tech.
The trick of a diversion artist is weak on this one, what can we say really, stop releasing games early for international oligarch/syndicate investors that cash in easily on demand and get off that FIFA FUT money high that leads too attempting & implementing nickel and diming strategies like the specialists in battlefield 2042.
You've gotta respect the open response from the developer, at the end of the day you can only fit so much on a single piece of paper know matter how big or small the design is. Erasing some of the designs to find a gap to expand & make it look better in depth can be task that is hard to furfill and complete to show to the audience with delightment, and that's how it is with a limited amount of memory to cram on & implement on a CPU GPU, it's a shame many people don't know it, you get what you're given I suppose.
I'll be turning my head away for this but the only time this game will ever catch my eye again will be when it is available on mobile phones, which is kinda of getting thier with 512gbs of storage and a slice of RDNA 1 or 2 on Samsung mobile chips but I suppose GTA 4 needs to be done first

Re: Xbox Will Get Activision Blizzard To Work On Classic Franchises, Says Phil Spencer
Anything Sierra Entertainment / Vivendi games, Scarface, GUN, or Simpson hit & run but that game would be a licencing battle I reckon with Disney.
