Bethesda has quite the impressive line up of titles coming our way with The Elder Scrolls Online, Wolfenstein: The New Order, and The Evil Within, all of which will be appearing on next-gen consoles, with the latter two seeing a current generation release as well. - PSLS
The Evil Within, Ghostwire: Tokyo and Hi-Fi Rush studio has closed its doors.
Ninja theory. Others will follow as well. The smaller studios MS owns should all be worried. Maybe MS will try and release some of their games day and date on ps5 to save some of these studios.
I can see Ninja Theory. At least Tango made a game that was reviewed well. Ninja Theory spent a lot of years to release a tech demo that didn’t do well at all.
I get it that Hellblade 2 is a boring game, but I hope they are not the next to be closed.

Ninja Theory is likely on the chopping block too. They released Bleeding Edge which bombed, took 4 years to release Hellbalde 2 which doesn’t seem to be doing well, and still have Project Mara in limbo. They’re high on the chopping block.
MS was likely expecting their God of War / Uncharted quality game from NT based on Heavenly Sword, Enslaved, DmC, and to an extent Hellblade 1, but NT hasn’t delivered since Hellblade 1 which was 7 years ago.
3 trillion MS is worth, yet they do this, well Phil the shit bag did. No studio needed to be let go, when you are worth this much.
Sad, but I see characters and posters of either less than average or barely average games.
Have to disagree here duder, with respect. Evil Within was a good game and the sequel was fantastic, as was HiFi Rush. I'd concede Ghostwire was pretty average but regardless, shuttering a studio which just put out MS best game in donkeys years was complete shithousery on XBox' part.
Microsoft paid 8B to buy Zenimax then fired well over 1000 people from Zenimax between the time they closed the deal and they announced these shut downs.
People talk about the 1900 they fired most recently, but that was only one wave of three sets of layoffs from their gaming division so far this generation totalling around 5000 people this generation. Not counting the dozen plus studios they canned last gen including Lionhead the original Fable developers.
By every real metric HiFi was an average game. I don't see an Evil within poster in the thumb, which is a shame, because if they threw their weight behind that IP, they might have still been around.
I don't understand how you can say it was average in every metric when it garnered the reviews it did?
Hi-FI Rush sits at an 87 on Meta with an 8.8 User Score. By every real metric that matters it's better than average and it's definitely a game made by a studio that should not have been shut down.
Xbox Game Pass continues to bring quality titles for gamers no matter the genre, but this time we here at CGMagazine have compiled a list of spine-tingling titles to celebrate the spooky season with.
The Dead Space Remake gets added to GamePass 10/26, definitely worth playing through.
The Epic Game Store's weekly freebies includes a game to give you nightmares.
The evil within is using some very high end AI systems as it looks and the atmosphere looks great i can't wait to see more.
Is s anyone else surprised that Cliff isn't being a complete fool lately.Between that and the ps4 good news going around it's becoming a great year.
cliff B.
its kinda hard to know what he means when he says something positive about games these days....he's become sell out..in my eyes at least, and while he may truly be stating something positive ....I cant help but think hes either being sarcastic or hes getting paid or something for the positive gaming comment.... no matter what it is I agree with the comment, im excited about this game, it's been a looooong while since we had a true horror game.
While I am very excited for this game based on what I saw at E3, I have a hard time seeing why his opinion gets such bravado over anybody else in the industry. He's riding on his success of Gears. He really needs to do something new.
I can't wait to get my hands on The Evil Within though.
Letter box game = not interested.
I just can't buy anymore games that are in letterbox. It just doesn't make sense to me.
For the love of Christ just shut your mouth. I should be illegal to talk this much.
