I used to be a big Xbox defender, and yes, I cheered on the ABK deal, but new Xbox is dead to me. I cancelled my preorder for the Xbox ROG Ally X and will start buying their games on deep sale. Which saddens me, because they own some of my favorite franchises..
@GlasgowGuy Unfortunately, Driver is with Ubisoft. And I have a feeling we will soon learn it has a new home too. Would have hoped Atari had gone for it, since their CEO seems to want to reunite as much of Atari as he can.
@BacklogBrad I don't mind shooters, I'm just not the best at them. I play them exclusively for the story. Have not played a CoD in a long time, but I will play this one on GP.
@RIghteousNixon This is also why I would like to see a Halo: Contact Harvest. I think the origins of these conflicts would be interesting to paly through. This Gears could be a real horror story.
@nisrecon I'm not holding my breath for a good portable from them. I'm a little ambivalent about Windows atm, especially when they now want to record your screen constantly for AI purposes.
"That the last two weeks were a dream and Tango is making Hi-Fi Rush 2 and Arkane Austin gets another stab at Dishonored. And now I don't have to worry about MachineGames and Double Fine and all the other beloved studios."
Tango being closed because of location and their inability to assist other studios while they ramp up projects is moronic. I get Mikami left, but are there signs he was trying to poach? Xbox wants a Japanese studio and then pulls this...

Re: EA To Be Acquired By Consortium Of Investors For $55 Billion USD
@TrollOfWar I get the sarcasm tag, but yeah, it's sad. Law and order is back in the US, but only for those who disagree.
Re: EA To Be Acquired By Consortium Of Investors For $55 Billion USD
@TrollOfWar not by the US, when the president's son-in-law's private equity firm is involved.
Re: EA To Be Acquired By Consortium Of Investors For $55 Billion USD
@NeoRatt can't happen here. Debt payments will eat the company alive, no money to focus on innovation, etc.

Re: Talking Point: What Do You Want To See From Xbox In The Second Half Of The Year?
@Ricky-Spanish as a consumer, I benefit from them having a diverse studio base, producing more variety of games for my monthly subscription.

Re: Gears Creator Cliffy B Discusses What He'd Like To See In Gears Of War: E-Day
@Sol4ris They're fighting internally on how to make one choice from 5 the right one. /s I don't see why studios put themselves in a bind like that.

Re: Call Of Duty: Black Ops 6 Trailer Becomes Most-Watched Ever As Xbox Game Pass Fuels Interest
@BacklogBrad Funny, as the Xbox was always known as the shooter box. They've come full circle. At least still sprinkling in some RPGs too.

Do we know that Ara and Towerborne are 2024? No mention of them in the showcase.
