never thought im gonna say that but FTC are right this time and i'm an xbox fan from day one but lately im trying to ask myself if im gonna keep buying xbox consoles when i have all the platforms already
@MrMagic people going to be thinking on the original movies so yes its going to be disappointing but i think its going to do well bc its a character people want to see so good or not its going to get a sequel.
i also think Ali is a good actor but not for this character
not going to have hyped bc of the character or a teaser - same as i said for Wolverine but i do want to see how the devs going with their first third-person game, maybe im wrong but they mostly known for first person games.
its always nice to see a team going out of their usual box
bc XBOX = DC tbh i played it on launch and loved it way better than the spiderman story and character wise, gameplay itself need improvements and you can feel the 30fps from time to time.
Gears is my top series and Cliffy done great games in his past but i dont think Gears need reboot, they already tried it with gears 4 by giving marcus time off and then expand the world in 5...
the open world-ish was one of the boring thing in Gears 5 and if we talking about God i still think its one of the borring games i played and i'm GoDoW fan but they made the game to become more story than a game and as much as i like good story it wasnt good compare to the old games.
what i think they need to do? maybe making it more like Outriders if they want to go open world so the world itself felt more alive but this thing need to be stand alone game and not part of the series, maybe in another timeline when the player have own avatar and our heroes are just npcs.
and about the multiplayer, i think they need to go the HALO way, making the online free 2 play with the ability to buy old and new seasons so there is no FOMO and we not paying for nothing if we dont have much time to play - us old fans not have much time as before.
Worst thing they can done, I have like more than 10 controllers by Xbox and each of them had problem, even my elite 2, I've send it 5 times and every time it had the same problem.
For the sixth time they told me I can't send it more
@Quasicat its bc someone on PBox didnt wrote the whole thing like this: "give you a glimpse at upcoming updates, and unveil much-anticipated multiplayer features"
as much as i like xbox controllers they have the worst support i had.
bought the halo elite 2 edition and one key didnt work all the time so i send it to them and the send be back controller with the other problems, do it six time and everytime there was a problem with the controller and the seven time they just said we dont taking it back anymore so.. nothing fixed even after ive send a video to show the problem
@Chaudy Something new like other companies? Halo is one of the unique games in the FPS genre and atm the only one who still have the Arena feeling (not including Destiny but they have rng in it)
HALO need to stay and not move just because young players only love BR and other things. If we all going to this route they can also stop Gears just because young players not into sci-fi.
It was good adaption Cuz let's be real even the game have more cinematic scenes than gameplay.
I played the games+dlc but the episode was so boring, the episode was so slow and the Closeup camera angle was too much like watching someone talking to NPC in fallout.
I know some players didn't loved Halo but I love it because they did something else in the same universe and for me it was nice to see this world form another angle. Also the first person scenes were great.
@Fenbops It wasn't ***** and gameplay was good but not for all, also exclusive multiplayer on ps5 only its like knowing the game gonna fall.
The characters art, driving all of those where great but Sony first tried to make it 70usd and ask for payment for the pve missions, also not racing with this gameplay was a shame.
Sony killed this game before it even got released.
Bleeding Edge was better but also died fast. I enjoyed both of them.
Sony acting like a little new developer who afraid about competition, this whole thing become a big joke.
I have all the consoles and a pc and tbh I don't care about this deal, If there is a game I like I'm gonna buy it even if its on GamePass but I'm afraid about new deals in the future, now they trying to block this deal and who knows what they going to say about next time Micro want to buy?
Sony need to stop put all the money into VR and live services and maybe bring us a new shooters, just to remind they have a big fans for 2 Resistance, killzone & socom but they prefer to make only Third Person games and get % from other companies.
@Would_you_kindly Yes and I wrote about it, still Microsoft didn't say nothing about sony make this ip exclusive (only on console) after it was multiplatform.
@Would_you_kindly You right but thats the thing here, Microsoft didn't cry when Sony done the exclusive deal with Activision, when they took spiderman and made the ip exclusive (even if Microsoft said no before) And same goes for final fantasy.
So yes Microsoft had deals before but they never said something against ps deals. *I have both consoles and I prefer micro to buy other companies but still this Sony thing.. 🤮
@Kaloudz As I see it games with microtranscation (cod) going to stay multiplatform with some exclusive things for Xbox (same as it now for Ps), after all MS not gonna lose all that income.
But new games probably gonna be pc/xbox exclusive and we already know activ/blizzard working on a shooter like destiny and a survival game.
Right now I just the deal to over so can stop read about sony whining all the time.
How the no1 company trying to stop other companies? And if they succeed what is mean for the future???
Hope to see Sony working more on making games (and not the reskin linar 3rd games) and less about being a little cry baby... I need a reason for why I have ps5
@XxEvilAshxX i tried it a week ago on pc and i can say the game run smooth and also the matchmaking was really fast, i just didnt bought it bc i said i have a feeling we going to get it on ea play in 2 weeks
@Neverwild Not really the GTA3 story was known and at the time I don't remember much talking about blaming Sony.
Nowdays it's a different story, more social networks and people opinions everywhere.
Is sony blame about multiple games not coming to xbox? Yes. But in the end its business and they have every rights those corporations care more about money than players and in the end its OK.
@Fenbops The thing is the gamepass on PlayStation was going to be cloud only, people including me still prefer to download the games so here one reason why to have xbox/pc
@themightyant In the gaming industry Sony is bigger and they are against this deal so its nothing about big corporations.
In the end this thing not really hurt us as gamers, for more than a decade if you want to play Sony game you buying a ps console, in the end we play where we want and even if I only have playstation this deal not gonna make me buy xbox + gamepass just for activision games bc in the end it gonna cost me more than 70usd a year.
I have pc and all the consoles and tbh I prefer playing on pc/xbox and already subscribed to gamepass so ofc it's great for me I'm just saying this deal is good for the players
They done great job on DMC and Bayo but Babylon wasn't ready to realese (blame goes also to Square)
And if I remember correctly they got budget and worked really slow on the project and that's why Microsoft cancelled it in the end, can't see micro giving more money to a third party devs and for a game they already paid for 😂
As I see it, the only way this game going to launch is if Microsoft bought Platinum but I really think it's time to say goodbye.
This thing become really sad. We talking about Sony here, the same team that have exclusive Cod content every year, spider man was multiplatform title before they bought they rights and paid for exclusive, the same team that doing year 1 exclusive deals and not to mention Final Fantasy.
They don't care about the players, they care about this big nice 30% cuts from selling the game in in-game shop.
There a reason why only Sony have something against the deal.
And micro giving 3 years it's more than sony would give.
In the next gen I think Micro will make all the game exclusive for windows/xbox and other platform could get those games with cloud gamepass... If they agree and sony not going to agree.
@NEStalgia exactly what i thought. there is no reason to keep a product you say its not profitable and also put more money to make expansion.
lets be real here, when SE want to delete a game they doing it even without making patch to fix problems.
also we already heard in the past that outriders did good but the kind of ***** PCF with the xbox deal.
all i can hope is that microsoft would buy PCF in the future bc those devs know how to make games, sadly i cant see them going out with the ip and i think OR is like destiny and TD but better (played both for years)

i think this works the other way, when a game not doing well they making it f2p to grab more money not making it b2p with expansions.
f2p would gave them more new players that would want the expansions bc exapnsion always supposed to be b2p.
Re: Disney Dreamlight Valley No Longer Going Free-To-Play, 1.0 Launch Date Revealed For Xbox

Re: Halo Infinite Season 4 Adds Infection Mode This June
@Grumblevolcano
It's a new game in the series and like most of the companies, they not have to add every thing from old games.
So in this case it's better later than never, don't get me wrong I want firefights but it's not I think they have to make it.
Thats one of the downsides of sequels, sometime things we love not come to sequels for good and worse.
Re: Xbox Research Survey Asks Fans If They Are 'Done Playing Halo Infinite'

Re: Microsoft 'Likely' To Offer Remedies Soon For Activision Blizzard Deal In Europe, Claims Report
@Snake_V5 if Sony gonna said it again the regulator can prove the deal without the 10years so it's kind of gamble.
The best thing for them is saying yes and working on a new shooter or prey the regulator not approve the deal.

Re: PlatinumGames Would Still Be 'Very Happy' To Work With Xbox On Scalebound
