Fancensus head of analytics Ryan Janes analyses the media impact for the summer's biggest announcements
You'll know of EGX. You'll know of MCM Comic Con. Today the two events have confirmed that they'll be coming together under one roof
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 launched the PlayStation Store "May Savings" sale, and this one has over 2,000 items! Read on for the complete list of games.
100% agree. I'm already starting to not miss it. I like this 'games showcase stream' thing. It's less talking and less cringe PR speak. It's just straight business and they can have as many of these 'video streams' as they want and at any time they want.
It was cute for a moment but time has moved on & things are being done differently now which folks have comfortably gotten accustomed to.
Yeah we don’t need it. We need the events to scatter throughout the year and the publishers/developers to put fillers into each of their shows in order to divide one event into two or even three.
That is much better than just one big show per year where you can get almost every new announcement there. /s
Honestly I do miss it. I liked that we had news back to back in a single week that we'll know we'll have. It was indeed a time of christmas for gamers. Now everything is just random and out of nowhere. Many of the events this year have been quite...underwhelming.
Ofc with whats going on in the world, we cant expect everything to be perfect and the inconsistency is reasonable.
Didn’t miss it.
