Furious Francis and Hero the Impaler discuss the weeks hottest gaming news. Nintendo’s slashed forecasts, EA bold Wii U statements, and shooters. Trust me you don’t want to miss this one.
As part of its plans to cut 1,900 jobs, Microsoft has reportedly shut down operations at Bethesda France, letting go roughly 15 people
"MIcrosoft leaves Bethesda do what they know how to do best" ... close! Oh the irony ....
(Citation from a week old article)
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.
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.
Tbh Microsoft I think Bethesda being 3rd party same with Activision would probably more competitive than thus scenario imo
I think it would have been better for all parties really especially gamers
The recently purchased Activision French offices might take over all the licensing and marketing for Microsoft in France from now on.
Sony has recently published a new patent that wants to dynamically handle the games' difficulty and gameplay based on the player's emotions.
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.
cool idea
cool idea for horror games especially
the way it's explained here sounds like it could never be forced hopefully, so that's ok with me
Hanzala from eXputer: "The cruel hammer of Nintendo has fallen. Farewell, 3DS and Wii U, you surely brightened my life and many others; you won't be forgotten."
WiiU is NEXTGEN we have way too much concrete proof now i'm not even bothered about these articles.
The WiiU competitors will make WiiU look like this gen (ps3,xbox360) that is why everyone is saying wiiu is not nextgen in comparison. It's because Nintendo didnt want to bother being on par again just like the Wii.
At least have the console specs be a little closer in technological performance rather than so far apart. Otherwise the Ouya is nextgen and the best thing out there.
aww mann . the wiiU isn't next gen ..
ha haaa . but neither is the Gamecube, and the gamecube gots something called Resident Evil 1 remake, and that shihh looks ps3 . so ha!!
weather its the backdrops which by the way are ALIVE, or weather its the modeLs, that game is the most astonishing looking videogame to grace the earth . .any naysayers? . come .. let the schooling begin .
p.s. . if the wiiU isn't next gen, then Nintendo's about to show this generation, how to use this much power properly . .
p.s. at this years E3, Nintendo is gonna damage your souL ...
how can it be next gen when its already here? it's current gen idiots.
