What would happen if our all-powerful media machines decided to push the envelope and include pornographic material to the list of consumable entertainment? What if porn, the money making juggernaut, were to make its way onto our current generation machines? What if I told you it already has?
As part of its plans to cut 1,900 jobs, Microsoft has reportedly shut down operations at Bethesda France, letting go roughly 15 people
Bethesda France was made up of roughly 15 people... they couldn't of being doing much
Bethesda France mainly did publishing and marketing within the region
that's a shame for you to say that, i'm sure Elite loves hearing what you just said.
Bethesda France focused on publishing and marketing in the region. And 15 people lost their jobs as part of the closure.
I wonder if this is part of Microsoft's strategy to abandoned physical media or possibly gamepass advertising makes their roles redundant you don't need to market a game as hard when the majority of players get the game as part of a sub which already promoted upcoming games
Tbh Microsoft I think Bethesda being 3rd party same with Activision would probably more competitive than thus scenario imo
I think it would have been better for all parties really especially gamers
The recently purchased Activision French offices might take over all the licensing and marketing for Microsoft in France from now on.
Sony has recently published a new patent that wants to dynamically handle the games' difficulty and gameplay based on the player's emotions.
This is something I might use. Sometimes I play some good games but they don’t have difficulty option and are a little too easy.
Hanzala from eXputer: "The cruel hammer of Nintendo has fallen. Farewell, 3DS and Wii U, you surely brightened my life and many others; you won't be forgotten."
Yes, there is in Art, Movies, and with the popularity of games (media) it will have to co exist.
Thats Life
yes and its called witcher :)
It's not a money making juggernaut anymore, tube sites killed the industry.
Also, it's not the media machines that push the envelope in terms of content, it's developers/publishers (though Sony/MS/Nint like to mess with what they can put on their platforms - incase it might interfere with their own business interests, like a first party title that would be in direct competition with a 3rd party game; they will say to change the game or it won't be allowed to launch on their console - irrelevant rant)
It already exists. In japan. Since looong ago.
