Cant wait to play the beta :D

Abriael4140d ago

Possibly in two months :D

Which you'd know if you read the article :P

Oh_Yeah4140d ago

I doubt 50% of n4g users actually read most articles. Lol. Just click and say shit based on the title.

Kenshin_BATT0USAI4139d ago

I only read the quotes. I figured any important info like that would have been mentioned there. But thanks!

alexkoepp4139d ago

Bungie did great graphics for halo 1, everything else has been okay, I'm not expecting amazing graphics from destiny, and nor should anyone else.

Can't wait for this game, Bungie have a special place in my heart and I've been dying to see what Bungie could achieve with their creative freedom and the more I hear about Destiny, the more excited I get.

Illionaire4140d ago

I can't wait to play this on PS4, many hours will be lost to this game. Everytime I see it, it keeps looking better and better.

Keith Olbermann4140d ago

Same here. This and infamous are two games I so want. Witcher 3 is up there too.

GW2124140d ago

Looks like a multiplat Halo. As a former XB360 guys that went to PS4, that's a good thing. Now I won't miss anything!

headblackman4140d ago

they are on xbox one, xbox 360, ps3 and ps4. not just ps4.

GW2124140d ago

Look up the definition of multiplat (multiplatform). We all good? Cool.

liquidhalos4140d ago

He clearly said it was a multiplat, no need to get so defensive

Nicxel4139d ago

GW212 could have structured his statement better haha so there's less confusion :P

Docknoss4140d ago

So far this post is the most ignorant post reply to this article.

Team_Litt4140d ago

TitanFall, Destiny and Halo 5 possibly this year. It is nice to have options as a fan of the sci-fi shooter genre. Will likely end up buying all three down the road.

Ck1x4140d ago

Just a week and a half till Titanfall...
Destiny, Titanfall, The Division and The Crew are the only games that interest me for these consoles.

He paid billions for Starfield. This should be the real story.

Microsoft bought all of Zenimax Media for 7 billion, while Sony paid 4 billion for Bungie. I think Microsoft got the better deal due to acquiring Fallout, ElderScrolls and Doom.

anast301d ago

This can't be true. They only bought Starfield...

InUrFoxHole301d ago

@anast
Should've thought that one out buddy, lol.

Yeah, I thought it out. I'm not sure you did. But since we are buddy's now, you're welcome.

So you're saying that Microsoft has missed out on so many huge gaming franchise in the last 25 years from GTA exclusivity to guitar hero and destiny it's just laughable they had so many misses

Reaper22_301d ago

Yea, but they're still 100 times more wealthy than Sony. I would say it worked out well.

Gamingsince1981301d ago

Xbox is dead all that money doesn't help.

Hypertension140301d ago

What has work out well? It sure as hell had nothing to do with Xbox.

andy85301d ago

That isn't because of Xbox though. This is a gaming page, not an I get supplemented by father Windows page

Bathyj301d ago

Microsoft's money has nothing to do with Xbox.
Xbox is a money pit to them they would love to ditch but are after some ROI first.

Let's face it, Xbox is like a red headed stepchild that steals from you to buy drugs.

Hofstaderman301d ago (Edited 301d ago )

MIicrosoft is NOT XBOX. The current situation illustrates this. And Microsoft wants its ROI.

@Bathyj and daddy Satya has just force admitted Phil to rehab.

gold_drake300d ago

you know why MS has so much money, and it aint cause of the gaming xbox branch.

so lets not kid ourselves.

PhillyDonJawn300d ago

Xbox was shown to be more profitable than ps

jznrpg300d ago

@PhillyDownJawn not more profitable. More revenue with ABK acquisition but them going multiplat shows they are not making much profit

ocelot07300d ago

That's great for Xbox gamers ain't it that Microsoft are more wealthy than Sony. Is that really a argument use are using now lol?

Imagine me in my job. Arguing with a fellow security guard at another company. Hahah well the company I work for is worth £800m the one you work for is only work £600m!

Microsoft may have more money but Sony has the talented studios and the games to back up those studios.

Plus turning down Marvel too. Spiderman is only exclusive to Playstation because of that

Hedstrom300d ago

Best deal deal in gaming must be when Sony bought Insomniac for 229 million dollars. They made over 800 millions on Spiderman for the ps4 alone. Thats just crazy!

XBManiac300d ago

More in the 1.000 million now.

gold_drake300d ago

another Interview?

how is he the only one who loves the spotlight as much as he does lol

Futureshark300d ago

Let's not forget he also famously passed on Spider-man, Genshin Impact and GTA3.

However it's almost kind of cute how he can keep that sh1t-eating grin and say he's a 'no regrets' kind of guy, especially when you think how much just these 5 titles could have swung the world in Xbox's favour instead of Sonys.

How he's kept his job I don't know, he must sure be keeping Papa Nadella's shaft warm somehow.

"But, but Gamepass, he introduced that!!!"

Yes he did, and now look at Xbox, all it's exclusives are coming to Playstation now rendering the platform obsolete.

DarXyde300d ago

Honestly, with that kind of track record, you can't convince me Spencer hasn't eaten it from the back in the name of self preservation. Probably unwashed...and at least twice.

That aside, my interpretation of everything here is Xbox has been mismanaged a bit too much and Nadella came down from his throne. The way it is now, I don't believe for a minute the multiplatform move was Spencer's idea. I don't even think the acquisitions was Spencer's work. At this point, I reckon he's got as much power in his role as Hunter Biden at a Ukrainian energy company.

DivineHand125300d ago

You can never tell how things will turn out if he had said yes to those games. Xbox already has access to some great IPs, however, they hardly do anything with them or fail to deliver. It's also possible their presentation wasn't good at the time, and they made sure the next presentation was better.

I believe that part of being successful is releasing things in the right place at the right time.

Many major corporations have a story similar to passing on successful business ideas. Let us look at Sony Pictures for example. Back when Marvel went bankrupt, they had the opportunity to buy the entire Marvel for only $25 Million but turned them down. An unnamed big shot at Sony reportedly claimed that “nobody gives a shit about any of the other Marvel characters,”. They ended up taking Spiderman for $10 Million instead.

https://www.avclub.com/sony...

Fast forward to today, we can see what the Marvel brand has done for Disney. Is it possible the same success would have been possible had Sony acquired those IPs. We can't say that for sure and it is possible most of those IPs that are successful today may not have been used.
