And how its legacy may impact Microsoft's chances of catching PS4. - Eurogamer
With Arkane Austin no more and Lyon living for who knows how long, the superb Dishonored is in serious danger; Microsoft cannot be trusted.
I love the Dishonored series so much and really want Dishonored 3. Microsoft better not screw this up.
I mean, I think the fans will probably kill Arkane Lyon by cooking up reasons to hate whatever they do next without playing it. I've never seen a game so artificially disliked as Deathloop.
Lol, why don't we just say, we are worried about all studios owned by MS now. They will keep closing studios until they have none left ...🙄
I think it's becoming clear based on matt bootys comments there's no future for any IP that can't sell above 10 million within the launch window. But is also a small game that gives them prestige
/S it's beyond a joke right now
Paul Thurrott in a recent episode commented on the on-going Microsoft fiasco hinting at more job losses and that "there's more to come".
There won't be no more acquiring game publishers from Microsoft in the future . Xbox has to pay Microsoft back. It might take two decades to do that.
There really needs to be a class action lawsuit here. You buy these companies just to put people out of jobs. And it’s not like something happened to derail their plans this WAS the plan. Microsoft has no business in this space at all.
Ninja Theory, Perfect Dark, Crash Bandicoot, Spyro, Wolfenstein 3, Dishonored, Prey, Doom, Quake... something tells me that bad things are going to happen to these entities under Microsoft.
The Xbox brand is expanding, as an Xbox mobile game store is opening this coming July where Microsoft will brings its "first-party portfolio."
“Bond adds that they will start on the web”
This will go nowhere.
Nice knowing you Xbox. This is what happens when the house never gets cleaned.
The only this MS is expanding is the amount of feculence it sprays on everyone who just want to enjoy gaming and make games.
The best thing MS can do for the gaming industry is leave and never return.
Yes Microsoft misjudged the market when it comes to media demand in the current day and age. Most people have computers, tablets, etc.
But since the launch of the One, MS has brought a healthy stable of great games and has promised many more.
Even the launch titles are some of the best games I've ever played and Microsoft admits those were even rushed products
E3 will show us the true power of Xbox One
It was too focused on them making money over providing any consumer need and too obvious in going about it.
Their ambitions was too extreme for the average gamer too skeptical and don't forget DRM and all of its BS, that's why MS plans failed!
Tv is best watched on a dedicated device and it's getting pushed out by streaming services it was never going to work as an "all in one" device and compete with a console for built specifically for gaming.
It has got a power disadvantage and people have voted with their wallet and they didn't like where it was going... Imagine they didn't drop the drm and online only!
