Gamesindustry: "We have our first new No.1 in the UK Boxed Charts, and it is Nintendo with its turn-based strategy RPG Fire Emblem Engage. The title's launch sales are 31% lower than what its predecessor managed (2019's Fire Emblem Three Houses). The biggest riser of the week is The Last of Us Part 1, which returns to the charts at No.20 with a 238% spike in sales week-on-week. The game has been boosted by the new TV series based on the title, which is available to view in the UK via Sky Atlantic."
PES and FIFA were the true football rivals of gaming for two decades, but the landscape of football games has changed dramatically in recent years. GameSpew looks back on the rivalry, and where the franchises are now.
No contest since 2012, PES/Pro Evo dominates FIFA in gameplay but fails in UX/UI and licenses. Graphics are a slight nod to FiFA.
Interesting read, some stuff not factually correct though.
EA didnt lose the rights to the name FIFA. They chose not to relicense due to the extortionate fee that they were being charged.
The bottom line is true though, EA are comfortable and put what feels like little to no effort into each release. There is still so much that can be done with this game and yet, we see so little.
who is now the sole leader of Naughty Dog, “I promise you, we will not be ‘The Last of Us’ studio forever.” Numerous games, he said, are in the works, including “multiple single-player projects.
I know he has a celebrity like status but unless he's announcing his game soon idc what he has to say from this point on.
We need announcement something from him.
Kind of a weird interview. No substance, hardly any questions. It's almost like they forgot to post the whole thing or something.
Oh brother...... It's like a balloon filling with helium. He's got nothing new to say. Naughty Dog went from being a studio of numerous developers to being about him and what HE does. Bruce Straley was the co-creator of The Last of Us, and he left--I think for the same reason Christophe Balestra left and since then, Naughty Dog haven't been the same. PlayStation is incredibly woke, as all businesses seem to be these days, ignorant to what's really going on sacrificing the greater for peanuts, but I think they left because of the uprising political atmosphere. They knew there was nothing they could do about it and an attempt to try and combat it, in today's society would end them up in legal trouble so, they just left, what else can you do when the opposition behaves like a child, screams and yells louder than you want to in raged fits, and will throw lawsuits at you at whatever chance they can, but you don't play that way, so they left. And Naughty Dog hasn't been the same since.
Naughty Dog was huge at one time! They were the underdog that became the top dog but, the direction it's fine, just watch and wait. It's ego, and Druckmanns ego of thinking they're untouchable and can just coast along, will drop them rock bottom, in due time, they could see the same fate as Xbox's teams met. Fans will turn on Naughty Dog because A) Naughty Dog aren't producing, they're not what they once were.
B) Gamers ARE growing tired of the woke culture overtaking their lifetime hobby. They're just more silent about it, it's the quiet cool
He's a solid theatre arts person, but he's not a philosopher. Being good at one thing doesn't mean he's Descartes.
Sony should try and stay radio silence outside of hard reveals.
It’s painful to wait for any info at all, but it’s less painful than skimming an interview that avoids all details whatsoever.
Commit to radio silence, Sony. You can afford to leverage the trust in gaming output that you’ve cultivated.

That was to be expected, wondering how well it keeps selling as the show runs.
Congratulations Sony.
Great game, hopefully they drop Factions soon
Figured that much.
This will continue until the week after the final episode.
Haven’t played the first one since it came out for the ps4. Just watching the first episode made me want to replay it to just see how well they stick to the game and the environment
