I still hate EA

I miss the NFL 2k series. I was hoping the NFL would allow for competitive licensing again.

First person helmet mode was pretty cool. Would make a great VR games these days with more details than two minute drill

$$$$ and lots of it. They don't give 2 s***s that the quality of the product sucks when it's consistently raking in the money.

RosweeSon1440d ago

Yep microstransactions pay for this deal they make so much from them no other developers can afford to even table a bid anywhere near competing with what EA can or would offer. Should really be stopped.

RosweeSon1440d ago

Like honestly who else is gonna get a chance when the company behind it make billions on this no doubt and fifa each and every year no company can even attempt to table a bid that’ll match EA.

Microsoft Is Finally Ending Its Focus On Big Budget Gaming Nonsense

Back when the Xbox 360 launched, Microsoft pushed the big budget game as a differentiator. Following all the recent layoffs, it’s clear this strategy has run its course.

The Microsoft shill take on the Microsoft causing the death of big budget gaming...

The whole driving force for growth in gaming both technologically, creatively and financially was all nonsense, and it was definitely not because Microsoft ran the industry into the ground with obviously bad decisions and creating an unprofitable business model that massively disrupted consumer spending habits. /s

First, F**** Forbes and their shill take, I hope the money cleared by now.

Second, Which big budget games I might ask? Microsoft has been in a rut for like a decade now, with no big publisher and developers puechases they would have not released anything in the last 5 years but the new Halo and Forza.

Ah Forbes. One of the prominent MS mouthpieces....

Microsoft is finally... ahhh I've never heard this one before!

LOL, this article is a big pile of dog crap...
Spencer has been constantly telling ppl that NO they would not go the route of having games like TLOU, Uncharted, etc because Playstation exists and prefers to focus on a diverse portfolio.

How many years have we seen Xbox as no game and we don't want small games like ORI, Pentiment, Grounded, etc.?

That's the real tragedy and why lots of gamers are mad at MS right now
because they have been championing smaller titles and yet fired the ppl delivering exactly what they were proning about.

So no the only nonsense is that MS seems now to be going BACK to AAA popular titles..sorry, I meant refocusing effort on core established IP where broken GAAS might be rewarded versus praised and rewarded work.

You read an article cheerleading the end of big budget games and all the other articles about problems and this is what you have to say? That's what you think "the real tragedy" is?

I thought that xbox fans might finally "get it", but no, it seems they don't even understand what is happening and what is at stake.

Hurray! No more big gam.... wait... what??
