California Senator Leland Yee sent out a personal response from his website expressing his opinion about how the NRA responded to violent video games and placed a fair portion of the blame of why violence occurs nowadays on the gaming industry.
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
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
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.
cool idea
cool idea for horror games especially
the way it's explained here sounds like it could never be forced hopefully, so that's ok with me
The GTA 5 Agent Trevor DLC episode could have been a real treat for fans on PlayStation and Xbox, before it was scrubbed sometime before 2017.
With the amount of money they generated, I just don’t understand the scrubbing of this. It would’ve been fantastic for fans.
I really want to know who drove the decision to focus on multiplayer was it Rockstar or take two.
Because when online started taking off many of the studio leads began having falling outs and leading including a founder
One of the reason I believe once gta 6 release, most of us thoroughly play it, enjoy the world they crafted then after that no offline support, no dlc at all
So basically he's saying that if the NRA had gone after video games earlier, he'd support their stance on them now?
if the second amendment gets touched, expect an american civil war.
My son works at Target and he says yesterday alone he had 10 different parents buying their kids BO2! They would ask him his opinion on what game to get and he would say "BOPS 2 is really popular, but how old are your kids?" majority of the parents said their kids age ranged from 8-15 years old. My son replied "well just to let you know its more of an adult game" The parents still took the game.
That being said guns are not the problem. As parents lets take responsibility for our parenting. two years ago my oldest son got in a fight at school and kicked a boy in the face. Did I blame UFC, No as a parent I realized letting him watch UFC might have been a bad idea. I just started letting him watch it again because he misses out being with me and his older brothers on fight nights.
I just think its dumb to place the blame on one certain product. Theres a reason that kids cant make decisions till their 18 because we are responsible as parents to guide them!
dont forget the tobacco industry blames everyone but themselves for lung cancer and chronic respiratory failure, just like the NRA blames everyone but themselves for mass shootings, and the accessibility of guns.
So now we got Senators trying to barrage people with this shit in the hopes that no one on the other side can possibly combat the strength in numbers?
No wonder they got a piss poor approval rate. And to think that people ELECT these fucking jokes!
