Microsoft feels so confident of the 1st-party content pipeline in development that there is no need to save games to be launched alongside Project Scarlett.
That's why many games are shipping earlier in 2020.
Former Blizzard president Mike Ybarra recently suggested an interesting concept that has sparked a debate among gamers - the idea of being able to tip developers after completing a game.
If I had a 100% way to be sure that this money would go to a fund or a reserve dedicated only to the guys who develop the games, be them designers, artists, programmers and so on, I could think about it.
But we all know that this 'tip' would only end up in a publisher's CEO pocket to buy a new yacht, so, no, I ain't tipping anyone anytime soon on this industry
So they eventually don't pay their workers and depend on our tips to pay them like the case with waiters!
Is this a joke? How about the big wigs giving up some of their pay for their hard working developers.
"The company was unable to focus enough on its main hope"
Nope. Going back to the 32X as the reason Sega lost that generation doesn't go back far enough before the Saturn.
Sega executives need to blame themselves as to why Sega lost that generation. Not Saturn. Not 32X. Not Sega CD. Nope. Executives were the reason why. It wasn't the hardware. Those devices were either dropped early or released to soon resulting in a developer backlash the hurt the game catalog. They really shouldn't have been made at all because they should have planned their next move more carefully. It has nothing to do with the devices. Poor leadership decisions and lack of unity within the company are what happened.
Love how blame is always shifted away from what is the truth. Writing a book placing the blame on the 32X isn't the truth.

Pretty impressive really. Those new studios should be churning out stuff in time for Scarlett launch or just after.
Microsoft is starting to dominate!
Why do they keep comparing GamePass to Netflix? It’s literally nothing close to it compared to Stadia or PSNow. Netflix is 100% streaming with the ability to download certain content (unless you still rent DVDs from them).
If Microsoft feel confident with what they showed and that they don’t have to hold anything back for the Scarlet...Then I’m scared for what they show for next gen...
Anyone knows that with Xbox is always all about words and false hype.
