XMNR: In a preview note sent to investors Wednesday, Wedbush Securities analyst Michael Pachter engaged in a little next-gen speculation. The controversial industry suggest that both the Playstation 4 and next Xbox (aka Xbox 720) could be launched later this year with extremely low starting prices thanks to cell phone-like subsidies.
Games Asylum: "Well, this is neat. As the name suggests, Wrath of the Mutants is the rarest of things – a genuine arcade conversion. With most modern arcade games being ticket redemption machines, this is something seldom seen. In fact, the last arcade conversion we can recall was Raw Thrill’s own Cruis’n’ Blast on Switch back in 2021. This is also based on an older iteration of TMNT, harking back to the series from 2012-2017. It’s essentially breaking franchise continuity (we’ve had two different iterations of the Turtles since) and could even be considered nostalgic for a select few – those who grew up with 2012’s Turtles are probably in their late teens."
Year 9 in Rainbow Six Siege brings Deimos, ACOG sights with new grips, and an interesting roadmap for the upcoming seasons.
Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes is a love letter for all Suikoden fans; it embraces the classic essence and doesn't succumb to modernity.
I thought this guy wasn't credible? If he's correct, that would be awesome tho. Guess we gotta wait and see.
Sorry, but I don't like subscription based stuff. Obviously, I will go for the full purchase right from the start here.
Xbox is going to do it just like a phone. You buy the phone on the cheap, and then you pay monthly until it's paid off or your subscription to Live runs out.
It's genius.
It will sell millions.
It's the way it is.
Deal with it.
If MS is going subsidized they should have gone all out on 720s power.
If I can get a $650 phone for $180, I wouldn't have minded a $1000 console for $300 with a 2-3 year cable subscription.
Now I like this guy.
