As part of its plans to cut 1,900 jobs, Microsoft has reportedly shut down operations at Bethesda France, letting go roughly 15 people
"MIcrosoft leaves Bethesda do what they know how to do best" ... close! Oh the irony ....
(Citation from a week old article)
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
It's France too, there's a high likelihood only 1-2 people on the team even had an Xbox.
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.
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
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."
Nintendo is the beating core of video gaming. Kinda make microsoft look like Noobs....
I'm 21 and my first console was SNES. I had a Megadrive (Genesis) shortly after that and loved that equaly , but ever Since I layed my hands on that SNES , Nintendo just got me....
They make by far the best first party content in the industry (no generic sony drone , I don't care if Killzone and Uncharted have DERP GRAPHICS) And have to be recognized as THE greatest Developers of all time.
Nintendo EAD - The best devs in the world.
Between their Games on their own Handhelds and Home Consoles , They are the undisputed champions of video gaming.
you dont need much reasons...nintendo makes the best games...3ds is winning the handheld war hands down....wiiu is selling well and already winning next generaton hands down despite hater...so expect the hate to continue...and nintendo innovates..innovation cannot die as we witness wii won last generation and once the games come out in 2013 i fully expect wiiu to stay ahead for good
Nintendo has some core first-party franchises that have a huge amount of selling power and nostalgia associated with them. They need to be careful to make sure they stay good, though (see Metroid).
