And well-deserved. I'm having a ball of a time so far. Just need to change out my heavy armour, it's a murder on my stamina and sprinting.
SIE managed to find success with gaas quicker than I suspected. Arrowhead did a great job getting past that initial launch difficulty, I've been playing again recently doing mostly solo missions. Can't even get off the damn planet after completing everything, lol.
With Arkane Austin no more and Lyon living for who knows how long, the superb Dishonored is in serious danger; Microsoft cannot be trusted.
I love the Dishonored series so much and really want Dishonored 3. Microsoft better not screw this up.
I mean, I think the fans will probably kill Arkane Lyon by cooking up reasons to hate whatever they do next without playing it. I've never seen a game so artificially disliked as Deathloop.
Lol, why don't we just say, we are worried about all studios owned by MS now. They will keep closing studios until they have none left ...🙄
I think it's becoming clear based on matt bootys comments there's no future for any IP that can't sell above 10 million within the launch window. But is also a small game that gives them prestige
/S it's beyond a joke right now
A renowned industry insider has suggested the rumored PlayStation May 2024 showcase featuring Silent Hill 2 could happen this week.
Bogus!
Why would Sony do that and how would this benefit them?
1) It would piss off their media partners (IGN, Gamespot, Edge, etc.) since they would have to allocate resources fast to cover the event.
2) Risk of not having great coverage or proper coverage from the various source
3) It could give the impression that they are not confident in their own stuff.
4) They would miss the chance to hype the event losing viewers and losing free marketing time.
Again I'm calling it bogus unless it's a small showcase before the big one or because they want to announce that Hellbalde 2 is also coming on PS5.
Going in with no expectations but likely will see something that resonates with me.
What's hilarious is that Microsoft tried to make it sound like they had AAA exclusives with the term *Xbox one console launch exclusive* and Sony did play it safe for some reason maybe because of PSX 17.
Everything MS showed might as well be an Xbox exclusive...whether or not it technically is.
whats hilarious is saying that sony played safe. this fanboys really dont have brains ,so sony dont do their own thing is playing with microsoft ,and then they say xbox dont have nothing to show , so why they are playing safe then , this is just hilarious from the sonyfanboy part
At R3 Microsoft lacked exclusives while Nintendo lacked multiplats.
Sony on the other hand had...well everything.
Didn't watch Nintendo.
Sony was okay, but no surprises at all or atleast none that I noticed or were interested in.
MS was decent, nice too see new console and showed 2 games I'm really looking forward too, Player Unknown and State of Decay 2. Apart from that no more major stand outs for me really.
Not the best year, but not as bad as last years.
