KeenGamer: "The Sega Game Gear was ahead of its time compared to Nintendo’s Game Boy but can be hard to go back to today with its blurry screen and unreliability. However, there are solutions to enjoying the Game Gear's library without the headaches."
Supercell has released its new squad-building action game Squad Busters in Spain, Mexico, Finland, Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Canada, and Singapore. This game features characters from different Supercell titles, such as Clash of Clans, Brawl Stars, Hay Day, Clash Royale, and Boom Beach.
As part of its plans to cut 1,900 jobs, Microsoft has reportedly shut down operations at Bethesda France, letting go roughly 15 people
They can form a company if they want, they are just as jobless as if "Microsoft had left them as 3rd party".
"MIcrosoft leaves Bethesda do what they know how to do best" ... close! Oh the irony ....
(Citation from a week old article)
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
that's a shame for you to say that, i'm sure Elite loves hearing what you just said.
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
It's France too, there's a high likelihood only 1-2 people on the team even had an Xbox.
Tbh Microsoft I think Bethesda being 3rd party same with Activision would probably more competitive than thus scenario imo
I think it would have been better for all parties really especially gamers
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
Of course the Mejesco Game Gear will not have capacitor issues there is a just about a 10 year gap from when the real Game Gear came out and the Majesco Game Gear and of course the screen will look better LCD technology improved when the Majesco Game Gear came out as well. Look at the Atari Lynx and Turbo Express they have issues with their screens because they are well played and old and electronics do get tired when they are old. Early 1990's other electronics had capacitor issues as well they were botched the moment they were made. As for the screen that can happen to anything look at some of the old spinach coloured Game Boys looks like some one dropped a rock on their screen screens fail after being almost 30 years old. The Sega Nomad is also notorious for failing and leaking capacitors and the screen looking like garbage. The McWill mod for the Game Gear is worth doing and so are the capacitors if you know what you are doing the Game Gear is a great console a portable SMS if you can find the adapter at a decent price. I wish Sega had an adapter to play Game Gear back on the Genesis but they couldn't because the Game Gear displays a higher colour palette the both the Genesis and the SMS.
I had someone do the McWill mod and new capacitors on my Game Gear and its still a great little hand held yeah it's a battery hog but it does have some decent titles. The rerelease they did for the Game Gear that was a poor choice 4 different colours with 4 different games the screen being to small and the buttons being so small. I would grab it up as a collector but I wouldn't play them and enjoy them like my real Game Gear.
I remember finding one of these in a yard sale sometime in my early years of high school for just a few bucks.
Was an awesome little handheld, but ate through batteries like nobody's business.
Lol even Sega fanboy won't say that. It was a terrible console, even in 92.. It was huge, tiny screen, 2 buttons and start, 6 lithium batteries that last max 15 min.
😂 I'll never forget how many batteries I went through owning this🤣
It's actually quite easy to get a recapped Game Gear off of eBay or another ecommerce site.
