Microsoft's Matt Booty affirmed earlier today that digital publishing policies on Xbox One would be no different than they were on Xbox 360. Any hope that Microsoft would right the ship that has inconvenienced a good number of former XBLA devs went down the drain after we learned that indies still won't be able to self-publish their wares. Never mind that just about every other viable platform gives them flexible options, because Microsoft is having none of it.
PC hit Seed of Life is finally coming to consoles, with a release date announced for Nintendo Switch, PlayStation and Xbox.
The Sims 4 offers countless scenarios that make the game interesting. Power Up Gaming looks at the best Sims 4 challenges to spice up your gameplay.
"VoxPop Games Inc. and Ratalaika Games S.L are today very happy and excited to announce that their indie horror hit "OUTER TERROR", is coming to consoles (PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, and the Nintendo Switch) via digital stores on April 12th, 2024." - VoxPop Games Inc. and Ratalaika Games S.L .
The lack of self-publishing is really shocking. A year ago, I was expecting Microsoft to try to turn the system more open like the Windows OS's since they were integrating Win8 in some way or the other; it's the total opposite of what I expected.
I really had high hopes for this system. All it has turned into is Microsoft forcing their crap onto us. The fees, the forced installs, and the internet requirements are all crap. Now they do this. They want to be another Apple or Google.
You could have at least worked with Google, so One buyers (whoever they are) wouldn't have to use that crap IE.
Lol even the Console exclusive dev are talking bad about it; Super Meat Boy and Fez. Lmao what a blow to Microsoft.
"But honestly, after their reveal yesterday, does anyone really WANT to make games for it?" - Terry Cavanagh
Indie support goes a long way, and right now MS doesn't seem to be getting it.
It's amazing how rumors and developer praise for the PS4 are all coming to together and are starting to make sense. I honestly can't believe what Microsoft is doing, what were they thinking?
