Who knows. It will be interesting for sure.
I think the benefit for some of these IP is that we will see them again!
I assume MS will not let Starcraft, Warcraft and other titles go to waste.....considering they have pushed for Game Pass for 2+ years on PC, a new Starcraft game could be very beneficial.

Especially if the MP is extremely solid....

Isn't the original Starcraft with Brood War free on the app?


So would this mean no more free version?

No idea...but I assume the original version of those games would be free.
The remastered would not be...but assuming MS will put on Game Pass...

And not only Blizzard's neglected IPs returning but Activision's also. We need a Prototype 3 to happen.

So I got an email today saying I could trade in any PlayStation dualsense controller and get a Dualsense Edge controller for £189. Then I saw the full price controller without the trade in is £210.

£210 for a fŭcking controller???

Enter the biggest flop of all time.

(please log in to view the image)

Not only did the studio get closed down, but the CEO of the entire company was fired as well.

Things appear to be going in Xbox's favor. The EU reportedly considering approval of the acquisition now after the recent hearings and the FTC is ordering Sony to make documents on how much they've paid for "timed" third party exclusivities since 2019 public that the company really doesn't want to do. Soon we'll know what it takes to keep FFVII Remake, Silent Hill 2 (inevitably) and others hostage.

It's worst. It's how much Sony paid publishers/developers to stop them from adding their games to Game Pass down the road/at launch.

Not surprised. The game is ass gunge. Which is a shame because it and the Callisto protocol were the 2 games I was looking forward to for about 6 months and they were both shìt. Now I'm only looking forward to the new Dead Island.

And yet I stated an objective fact. You could not care that I think the sky is blue, it is regardless.

Dead Island sucked. And I'm not the only one who says so,.this is common knowledge.

And now I feel like an ass.


Thanks Jadan, you know how I get when I'm off my booze.


Why is being sober treated like a moral good anyways, like staying miserable is good for society?

Forspoken flopped so hard, Gamestop is throwing copies (including the steelbooks) in the garbage.

What's a fair offer for a used, barely played PS4 Pro a friend has? He's letting me pick my price.

I can buy them refurbished at Gamestop now for 299, so I'm thinking..... 180? 150?

I've heard people make the argument that "Nintendo shouldn't make a powerful console to directly compete with Sony and Microsoft, since the N64 and GameCube, both powerful consoles, failed!"

Here's the thing: The N64 and GameCube didn't fail because they were trying to compete against Sony and Microsoft, they failed because Nintendo made stupid decisions with those consoles, like sticking with cartridges and using mini-DVDs. A Nintendo console on par with the PS5 and Xbox Series X would most likely do very well. Imagine a Nintendo console with amazing first party AND third party games, and having Mario and Zelda in 4k and 60 FPS. It's actually really simple to make a console that sells well.

If I can figure this out, why can't a multi-billion dollar company like Nintendo?

I'm guessing the proprietary crap was an effort to stop piracy.


Didn't remotely work, but probably at least slowed the process up.

I hate adjusting the TV for gaming. Movie Mode is supposed to be the gold standard, but makes colors "pop" less and blacks look grey to me. Yet it is clear in some cases detail will be lost, like this fog effect that drowns out some scenery around the edges in anything but movie mode.


And then there's "game mode".

This is late but --

I think, from Nintendo's perspective, there's just not much incentive to stray from their standard game plan.

The Switch is the 3rd best selling console of all time, so switching up their strategy might feel like an unnecessary risk.

A more powerful console would also be more expensive, for example. With part of Nintendo's appeal being their low cost, they may actually lose more sales than they gain. I don't know if simply being more powerful would translate to more profit. People don't really buy Nintendo for the specs.
