Pre-orders are disappointing for Aliens, Crysis 3 and Gears Judgment. The rest have done pretty well. I hope Aliens is awesome(for me, it will be. Love Aliens)

Gears turned into something no one seems to talk about at all. For one of MS's top selling IPs, I figured this would get at least a little publicity. I saw a thing online on Rev3 talking about how it appears as if MS doesn't want to put any effort into this games marketing. Shame to be honest.

BanBrother4084d ago

Yes, a lot'of that has to do with the fact that Gears 3 is still played and loved by many Gears players. They don't see Judgment as an improvement, just something different. I'll still get it for its single player and overrun modes though.

I would have prefered something new or at least a next-gen launch Gears maybe. To soon, but I'm sure Gears players will still enjoy it.

Jek_Porkins4084d ago

They did announce that Gears Judgment went Gold, so I think it's doing better than is represented here. It'll sell well, but honestly the Xbox 360 crowd has been waiting the longest for a new console. A lot of the people I know are waiting for the next Xbox.

Seems like Microsoft has completely shifted focus to the future, but Judgment does look pretty good and I personally have it pre-ordered.

It would be amazing if LoU were to have more pre-orders by the time it releases than GoW considering the strength of that franchise. It's got about a half month more till release and trails by about 60,000 so could happen. Got my collectors edition for GoW and survival edition for LoU preordered.

30XX Gets a New Combo Ranged/Melee Character Called Delta

"30XX is one of the best roguelikes out there, combining the tight platforming action of the Mega Man X series with the challenge and randomization that roguelike fans crave. Batterystaple Games has done lots of refinement through updates since 30XX first appeared on Steam Early access a few years ago. The latest such update adds a new character for free, one who combines the best attributes of the two existing characters. Also, the Steam version is on sale, making it a great time to travel to the distant year of 30XX!" says Co-Optimus.

Hammerwatch II Will Stop Dilly-Dallying and Head to Xbox and PS4 on April 23

"Hammerwatch II's journey to Xbox has been long and perilous. After first launching on Steam in the fall of 2023, the game finally turned up on PlayStation 5 last December. Since then, Xbox gamers who enjoyed the original Hammerwatch and the sublime Heroes of Hammerwatch have been anxiously awaiting their turn at the long-promised sequel. At last, the wait is nearly over because Hammerwatch II will hit Xbox and PlayStation 4 on April 23," says Co-Optimus.

Sea of Thieves Welcomes 40 Million Players

Joe 'Three Sheets' Neate (Executive Producer): "As I’m sure you can imagine, when it comes to Sea of Thieves my days are full of numbers. Development costs, active servers, days until the next update… Sometimes, though, a truly extraordinary number stands out – a number like 40 million, which I’m incredibly pleased to say is the number of pirates who’ve now set sail in Sea of Thieves!"

I pre-order the premium edition for my PS5 today

40 million have set sail...that's great. How many are sailing now? Monthly active users....when it actually matters. How many people purchased the game is another important number.

Gamingsince198152m ago

You don't get numbers like that from MS mouth pieces, they just like to say stuff like "this game was looked at 129 million time, the biggest amount of people browsing a game of this genre on xbox gamepass ever in the last 3 weeks compared to before gamepass was out (small print only 2 million bothered playing longer than 20 seconds and only 100 people are playing it concurrently)

It's all smoke and mirrors

nibblo35m ago

There are usually around 10,000 concurrent users on Steam not counting Xbox or PS but really it doesn't matter as long as there are enough people on the servers to play which there always were and will be for a long time now with the PS players coming on board. Same goes for how many people bought it and how many are on GP, we aren't the accountants of these console companies so why would we care?
