IM PLAYIN looks at some of the Summer releases worth getting excited for.
"The Winter just passed has been kind of disappointing on the games front, there hasn’t really been a huge amount to rant and rave about. Dead Rising 3 was alright, Battlefield 4 was pretty good, FIFA’s FIFA so no change there, inFAMOUS: Second Son was a decent example of what the PS4 can do, but not much to write home about otherwise. All in all, not the most exciting launch for the next-generation of games consoles. It always seems to go that way, however. It’s not until a few months down the line that we really get the chance to sink our teeth into the juicy AAA titles. This Summer won’t exactly be bringing us AAA titles, though there are still a few games to get excited about!"
Xbox Game Pass continues to bring quality titles for gamers no matter the genre, but this time we here at CGMagazine have compiled a list of spine-tingling titles to celebrate the spooky season with.
The Dead Space Remake gets added to GamePass 10/26, definitely worth playing through.
The Epic Game Store's weekly freebies includes a game to give you nightmares.
Destiny has made over $160 million in MTX revenue, and these numbers only account the data from late 2017 to early 2019.
That's extremely low for microtransactions, especially for a game that's essentially designed around it
This was back when the game wasn't free to play.
The figures are from November 2017 to February 2019 (1 year and 4 months).
Based on that projection, the MTX revenue for Destiny 2 likely would have been closer to ~$240m for 2 years.
Not sure if premium expansions are included in that figure either although ... I'd hope that they are though and that most of the revenue was for actual content like Forsaken.
People spend way too much money on cosmetics.
Seasons($10 and just got bumped to $12) and dungeon keys($10 each, two a year) are through the eververse(micro transaction) store.
So for those two years, in order to play a season, you would pay through micro transactions.
Bungie Marathon will be worse since it's designed around it as well
It makes me sad to agree... but at the same time I am looking forward to giving it a go. Destiny 2 is so far in, I find it difficult to figure out what I am meant to do first.
Let's compare something similar. Apex Legends and its ridiculous $18/$40 skins make EA a billion each year.
For as much as ppl complain how much they hate microtransactions, they sure don’t act like it. No wonder they aren’t going anywhere.
By "people" you're referring to millions and millions of people. Obviously the ones complaining aren't necessarily the same as the ones spending all that money.

I think I may pick these early next year cheap and less bugs apart from UFC and maybe Destiny the others will be a no buy.
Uhhh Destiny and Evil within is coming out in the fall, so just face it summer time gaming is always a drought. I am surprise They never mention Diablo 3 next gen, and Metro Redux next gen?
All rubbish where's space hulk New panzer front alien isolation decent boxing sim with all the great heavy weights but not EA sports.
Sniper and The Evil Within for sure....sports on my console, that's been a negative going strong for like 15 years. Destiny looks boring as hell, even the vids put me to sleep, so unless I'm just seeing the bad parts. Ill skip that game completely. Its like a sleepy Halo or a Borderlands with the fun ripped out.
~Destiny comes out in September (Fall) Evil Within comes out in October (also Fall). All I'm playing this summer is Mario Kart 8, Murdered Soul Suspect and Wolfenstein. Otherwise it's looking like another Saharan Desert Summer.
