"Some would say that Sega’s downfall from being a leader in the Console Wars to being a footnote in history began with the Sega CD/32X, but I actually felt it started with the rushed surprise E3 1995 launch of the Saturn that alienated retailers and developers alike.
But this article isn’t about the Saturn and it’s time that was cut too short. This is about the Dreamcast, Sega’s 128-bit superpower that attempted to go toe-to-toe with the behemoth PlayStation 2, and didn’t live to tell the tale."
As part of its plans to cut 1,900 jobs, Microsoft has reportedly shut down operations at Bethesda France, letting go roughly 15 people
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
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
Tbh Microsoft I think Bethesda being 3rd party same with Activision would probably more competitive than thus scenario imo
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

Dreamcast was a great system.
My favorite console xD
Most underrated console in gaming. I could remember countless hours of marvel vs Capcom , sonic adventure , so many more but I definitely have to mention phantasy star online hours n hours of my life so worth it. In the end sega may not be in the hardware business but they left a hell of impression and one last hooray with the dream cast.
P.s the boot up intro easily best one ever, ps1 close behind
"Not only was Sonic Adventure the true 3D Sonic title we all wanted"
Settle down.
