@jordan1992 because soon you will b able to pair a Xbox controller to a quest and play game pass games just like u can do now with Ur phone , you can technically do it now but it's not supported yet by Microsoft
Yeh why bother putting games day one on game pass when u have suckers that will pay top price for games you remake so bad that the ppl who play it will prefer the old versions ...which u took off sale so they don't have any other choice but to buy Ur messed up remakes
@ThatFilbo so tell I what u go find proof that it's being paid by players,and I won't play it ,how about that , Russians oligarchs telling Putin they taken away my yacht / business & homes, Putin says yeh so ? But they aren't playing atomic hearts !!! Putin : that's it cancel the invasion !!
@ThatFilbo I understand where you are coming from but ... Chances are they have already been paid for putting the game on gamepass so me playing this game ain't supporting anything is it ? So playing it or not will make zero diffrence
Edit : and let's be honest the sales of one video game is not going to change Putin's mind about the invasion of the Ukraine,most countries have already taken things worth millions maybe even billions off the power ppl and still the invasion goes on
@Kaloudz yeh it's a water is wet moment , only cause sites like pushsquare posted about the 3 year deal but didn't mention it was about parity that most ppl believe it was microsoft offering a 3 year deal to KEEP it on playstation
@Romans12 they make too much money from Sony for it to ever be exclusive to Xbox ,exclusive Xbox dlc/cosmetics /maybe even maps but the game itself won't be ,he's already said it's gonna be like minecraft ,keeping in the same systems and even adding it to more ( Nintendo )
It makes gd business sense make money for your competition selling your item @Ryall what impressions ? Saying they will make it like Minecraft that's never been taken off Sony ?
@Titntin because Sony wants Xbox to not have anything exclusive to them after the deal expires, they were offered 3 years more of having exactly the same version as Xbox but Jim Ryan said that wasn't long enough , then proceeded to
Publicly say that Microsoft said we could have cod for 3 more years , not that it was a 3 year parity deal so to get ppl to think they were losing cod and kick off
Jim Ryan lied cause he knew the fans would kick off with him but they didn't think that microsoft would send a open letter to every one and the cma telling ppl what was really happening and .... Still there are ppl that think cod will be exclusive to Xbox after a few years even though he's publicly said a lot of times he has no intention of keeping cod off Sony ..but has never said Xbox won't have exclusive cod stuff
@Tharsman I think for the price that some codes go for ( closed beta codes & the burger king cod one ) the companies are the one that pay out to include that stuff and some ppl are the ones making one hell of a profit off em, they might b where they are put off , many closed beta have turned Thier games in to open betas cause of the price of the codes going on eBay
@Kaloudz you right it is that way and always before anyone else that's the world we live in unfortunately or these exclusives wouldn't bring in any money , I do like the single player but not played the multiplayer for years ,I got fed up with the sore losers ....u killed me with a newb weapon etc etc .... Does it matter Ur still dead? Get over it if you don't wanna be killed maybe switch to playing Monopoly
@Dezzy70 maybe sony had it put in the contract that xbox couldn't bundle the game with it over here , I know target are giving cod away with a Xbox console in the us so it's not the same here , and I can imagine if Sony have that put in Thier deal the us would cost way way more than the UK so Sony didn't do it
@Kaloudz same here the sooner it's done the better , i agree with everything u have said like I've said in other posts this is about the exclusive gp stuff we will get and the amount of money sony will lose to the casuals that will buy another console just for them and once they do move to Xbox Thier friends will as well ( they can't have one of em having a weapon that they won't lol ) ,one thing I will add is I expect some sort of spyro crash game to be Xbox exclusive even if it's Microsoft just shoving Thier finger up at Sony after all the stink they have thrown up over this deal ( the only company that has)
ppl are talking like it's Microsoft themselves are putting them there ...you know they are being paid to yeh ????....Yeh lets stop Microsoft making money from these ads ..... Next complaint...they raised prices to stupid amounts cause they stopped selling advertising
Im enjoying it ,it's gonna take along time to get all the achivements and it's not as relaxing as power wash sim but it's still a gd game , one of the annoying bugs is the ppl getting off the party bus get stuck for some reason and the game won't move on ..... until u reset the ppl /cars
@YouTrash your getting me wrong I'm not defending it at all, I'm just saying the video doesnt show the full picture , ,but they have brought back pins /pinned games that they didnt have last week which I wanted , as far as all the other stuff they should get rid & hopefully they do
@YouTrash Yes I did the video isn't showing the part where u can have pinned games ,you can have games pinned to the dash without them being in a group and I don't have to watch the video I have the dashboard , It goes like this
Something game pass , Pins group, Pinned game ( which the video has none ), pinned game ( again the video has none , Something game pass , Pinned game ,etc etc Edit I've created a video to explain ,I apologize for the crudeness I have no capture card it's done by phone
@YouTrash you do know the dash BEFORE this one WAS ( last week ) just adverts and gamepass ? They didn't have pins/games pinned to the dash feature on it ...and you know it's in alpha stage ? A lot can change by next year
@YouTrash you can add what games you want to the home screen , the video doesn't show u that but after the pins if he added games to his home screen it would be there
@Green-Bandit it was released yesterday for testers , it's better for me I've got all my pins /games back on the dashboard , they show your pins then something gp then a game that's been added to dashboard then another something gp , it makes it alot better for me ....still need more room to see the wallpaper though but it's a steady improvement
@Green-Bandit the new dash in alpha skip ahead lets you choose how you want the dashboard now So chances are you won't have the dash that has been shown
@Banjo- totally agree, although Microsoft have made some really stupid mistakes in the past ,this gen they are really more consumer friendly to the consumers wallet , which ps seem to be going the opposite way
@BBB don't blame you a lot of ppl have left ps behind , most because of thier bs money grabbing , and a hell of a lot of ppl because of gamepass ,even when sony have a way to give thier customers free sub services like ms do with Thier rewards they money grab instead of thinking long game and keeping ppl on Thier services
@UltimateOtaku91 that's another part that eats me about Sony ,they said to the cma that they couldn't create a hit as big as cod yet they waste Thier money on 12 month exclusives instead of trying to ,it makes zero sense , and another thing while I'm on a rant. Why bloober ? Of all the studies why them lol
@UltimateOtaku91 they deserve it especially after the hypocritical comments about if Xbox has exclusive cod it wouldn't b fair to Sony etc , but let's be honest with a move like this it's handing the judgement to microsoft
I don't care if they pay for exclusives it's business but then to moan about it to the cma it's wrong ,get rid of Jim Ryan before he costs Sony too much business
@Would_you_kindly the this site is gonna b fun comment , like most ppl will care they honestly won't ....if u wanna see fun wait till Microsoft own acti and announce a new crash/spyro game Xbox exclusive then the u know what will hit the fan
@Would_you_kindly did u come over just to start a fight ?
I personally don't care if it exclusive for 12 MONTHS it's not a long wait if I decide to play it and I don't think bloober are the best to be doing it oh and if I change my mind I've also own a ps5 so not a Biggie and to be fair most Xbox fans will be too busy on the all exclusive starfield to give a hoot
I'm amazed Sony had the time to sort out that 12 months exclusive when tears were still running down Thier face over the acti takeover
Edit : oh no ppl might buy a ps5 over Xbox to play this remake where's the phone number to the cma ? Lmfao
@UltimateOtaku91 "like what Microsoft have done with persona 5 Royal to get it on gamepass and pay to get it took off playstation plus " Dont talk complete rubbish of it was on ps plus it was on there because of a contract they didn't just say take it off ,their contact run out plain and simple
With them saying they are open to a takeover bid then trying to get back to Microsoft and then the voice artist saying she was only offered $4000 and tells ppl to boycott the game , does Anyone else think it's the beginning of the end and they are in REAL financial trouble ?
@Doublecell and you know this how ? And when did I say I was waiting for it to go on gamepass ? Do yourself a favour and go sit somewhere and know less then u thought u knew ok
@UltimateOtaku91 "Microsoft mentioning the pc and mobile as a case against sony is also invalid as sony has no market share in those gaming markets" so Sony don't release games on pc ???? It's not Microsoft's fault Sony were also late to that game
"So will that be in an official contract? Or is it just word play until the deal gets done"
Sony was offered cod to stay on playstation for 3 years after Thier contract to have exactly the same cod as Xbox and jim said nooooooo it's not long enough
Should any consumers decide to switch from a gaming platform that does not give them a choice as to how to pay for new games (PlayStation) to one that does (Xbox), then that is the sort of consumer switching behavior that the CMA should consider welfare enhancing and indeed encourage. It is not something that the CMA should be trying to prevent.”
