Who is Forrester? (not very knowledgeable about research companies as there seems to be hundreds of them)

Good for Nintendo

mrbojingles4110d ago

A research firm that does these types of studies.

They surveyed 7,500 consumers to decipher their annual consumer experience ratings for over 150 different companies. Nintendo wasn't the best rated company out of all they rated this year, but they were the best rated consumer electronics company. I think Verizon was rated higher.

duh. Micro only cares about their market place and subscriptions to play. Sony only cares about graphics or 1000 players in one server with shitty 10 frames a second. Think of a game that isnt one of those

This article should riffle a few fanboy feathers.

"Sony and Microsoft were rated as well.

Microsoft was rated “ok” at 74, and

Sony barely missed being classified as “ok” with a rating of 76."

yea Love the way they word that one right there!

yay for hypocrisy

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.

Profchaos3h ago(Edited 3h ago)

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.

Profchaos2h ago

Possibly guven all the leaks we know the Xbox brand is really struggling in the region.

Tbh Microsoft I think Bethesda being 3rd party same with Activision would probably more competitive than thus scenario imo

Profchaos43m ago(Edited 43m ago)

I think it would have been better for all parties really especially gamers

TheColbertinator1h ago

The recently purchased Activision French offices might take over all the licensing and marketing for Microsoft in France from now on.

Sony Could Increase Your Game's Difficulty If It Sees You Complain About It

Sony has recently published a new patent that wants to dynamically handle the games' difficulty and gameplay based on the player's emotions.

jznrpg5h ago

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.

Profchaos4h ago

Souls games will be like that players struggling make it harder

I think if used correctly it could work well
