@ValentineMeikin Microsoft doesn't own capcom yet has dead rising 3 exclusive to the Xbox , Nintendo don't own capcom yet have monster Hunter rise exclusive to switch , why's it only bad when Sony funds a game & makes it exclusive π
@ValentineMeikin it is widely known stairfield was in active development for ps5 until Microsoft bought Bethesda they hadn't made any contractual agreement for it to be on playstation so Microsoft was able to cancel the ps5 version , doesn't change the fact that without the acquisition that game would've been multiplatform contradictory to when Phil Spencer says he doesn't want to take away games from other platforms
@k3lt0n that's not sustainable without cutting budgets for games aswell as more monetisation , Sony aren't Microsoft they're a wealthy company sure but no where near as wealthy as Microsoft
@carlos82 they tried to end sega & Nintendo by making a better product ? Also the PS1 was originally a collaboration between Sony & Nintendo until Nintendo backed out
@Nightcrawler71 they use the same launcher so it will say modern warfare 2 when you download it but to actually play modern warfare 2 you have to download additional add ons
@Blessed_Koz I thought it looked pretty good from the initial trailers but luckily never bought it I just think it's really scummy to continue to sell it aswell as put it on sale knowing full well the servers will be shutdown within a year at most feel the same when I see Activision selling map packs for old cod games if the acquisition goes through then Microsoft better keep the servers online seen as they continue to sell them lol
"an absolutely wonderful conclusion to The Dark Pictures Anthologyβs first season." So there's going to be a bunch more of these full priced meh mini games that get heavily discounted not long after they release lol
@bpomber yeah whenever they do reviews on this site they always review the series X version & don't bother with the S & when theirs comparisons between ps5 & series consoles it's always the X asif the S doesn't exist lol

@Martsmall YouTube is a free platform because of ads , they aren't selling anything so that's where their money comes from , Microsoft , Sony & Nintendo all sell consoles , accessories , software & subscriptions what do you not understand about that lol
@grumpypotato 'Current trend of charging 70$ or more is not sustainable' ... The latest call of duty is the best selling one yet & made a billion $ within 10 days it very obviously is sustainable π
I'm sure Bethesda would've released it by now a complete an utter buggy mess but now Microsoft owns them after the balls up that was halo infinite they weren't going to let this one be a mess
@CoffeeFueled Sony didn't spend 70 billion acquiring the studio that owns the IP to have it as an exclusive & it's never been a multiplatform title lol these comparisons are really reaching
@Kilamanjaro halo definitely has a better story than destiny it's so hard to follow the plot of destiny you can really see the similarities it has with halo like the ghosts that are clearly those things from halo lol
@Kaloudz I remember the multiplayer beta getting gamers choice at the goty awards & thinking WHAT like how the hell does the multiplayer portion of a game that's not even officially out yet & is severely lacking in content win that award I played the beta & I really preferred splitgate lol
