It seems like Microsoft have already lost the next-gen battle against Sony in Japan.
Rockstar Games’ shiny new Red Dead Redemption port is now on GTA+, and you can play it while claiming some tasty GTA Online benefits.
Rockstar still strying to make GTA plus work
Should be $6 for the rdr game on sale not 6 bucks for a months playtime
One of my favorite games from PS3 generation. I have the remaster as there was a buy 2 get 1 free deal a while back but the price they are charging for the port is way too high although not surprising at all.
Improvements have been made to the stability of the game
I still think this release was a big waste of time. I would have been a day 1 purchaser if they had redone the game w RDR2 graphics. I still own my PS3 copy, so don't see the point in picking this up if it's minimally improved.
They should have released the game in its current state not the state it launched in. Obvious we all wanted this to be a expansion to rdr 2 given that the original map was already remade in the game lots of people though this was just going to be added in later as paid DLC.
Now the game runs at 4k 60 fps on ps5 and can be brought on sale it's actually worth playing.
At launch the game was priced far to high and was a ps360 era game that couldn't run at 60 fps.
I'm in no way a frame rate snob I defended games like tears of the kingdom in the past for being 30 fps experiences but rdr was a joke at launch
Red Dead Redemption II got an award for its continued support, despite barely receiving any updates since 2021
Troll /trōl/ verb
"fish by trailing a baited line along behind a boat.
gerund or present participle: trolling"
Example: Kotaku got trolled because they gobbled up the bait so quickly. They didn't pause and consider that the juicy bait might be a trap.
''.....while there’s fun and value to be had romping around Bethesda’s 1,000-planet-rich galaxy''
Did we play the same Starfield?
Do uh what’s up with Kotaku being so out of the mix like someone’s grandparent?
Ouch.....but Xbox never does well in Japan.
This was expected...imo
Even if the x1 was a stronger cheaper console that came with a free exclusive monster hunter game called monster hunter Xplosion hyper megaplex dragonpunch 6: pandas rather.
It would still sell less than ps4
Ah, Japan has been a problem for MS. Meanwhile, Japanese devs are pushing for western appeal more and more.
Now with China I hope MS can just drop Japan completely. The games coming out of Japan are niche to their market and the bigger ones have a western publisher. I don't think it is as important as it used to be to be connected with Japan. The industry has moved well beyond what it used to be with the most successful studios now western.
MS sales and marketing will still continue to try I suppose.
Correction. No Red Dead Redemption Remake For PS4/Xbox One that Shinobi602 knows about.
PS4 isn't doing well in Japan either
