After Microsoft dropped the bombshell that Project Scorpio is a reality, Steve talks about the specifications and what impact it may have.
Supercell has released its new squad-building action game Squad Busters in Spain, Mexico, Finland, Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Canada, and Singapore. This game features characters from different Supercell titles, such as Clash of Clans, Brawl Stars, Hay Day, Clash Royale, and Boom Beach.
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
I am so pumped for the Scorpio, VR, and 4K gaming. I'm glad Microsoft is raising the bar again.
Im very glad to see what they have done. Hopefully NEO for Sony learns from this and responds accordingly. Very pleased with Microsoft overall. I love competition. Sony forced this kind of move. Now hopefully Sony responds.
I wouldn't say a new gaming generation beggings. Article was great and it made sense.
I think people though need to see the future as gaming as choice rather than 5 to 6 years a new console with new games and control which means previous controllers won't work etc.
It's going to be simpler than that , and makes sense. 3 Xboxs all aimed at Diffrent users, each running off the one system Xbox live and all connecting to other Windows devices ... Meaning pc owners can play the way they want and still get console games , and Xbox one users won't miss a thing.
It's the same thing you see at Apple , Diffrent Laptops and desktops , all running under the same system and aimed at Diffrent users ... You dog buy a €1000 console just to surf the web , you buy the cheapest model to suit your needs.
That's the future of gaming , choice for the player , the article makes it clear , he wants 4K but not concerned about VR so a console should give him that choice.
Ms have a platform to do this and it's opened up a lot more gates for developers and players across a wider scale ... I would say this generation is evolving into a new type of gaming world rather than a new gaming platform.
I feel like this is 9th gen. ReviewTechUSA made a good point. MS and Sony may be pushing the nobody will be left behind slogan, but for how long? NX Scorpio and Neo are 9th gen consoles in my eyes.
