It's sad that I'm more excited for the remaster trilogy than the new game.

Nothing sad about that, the original three were amazing games! Can't wait to explore the Croft manor again and find all the secrets... It's been ages, so I barely remember the games these days.

"Crystal Dynamics made the difficult decision to part ways with 9 Brand/Marketing and 1 IT employee today due to an internal restructuring..."
Small layoff, hardly news worthy.

Embracer has left one hell of a mess and Tencent will be swimming around picking at the scraps.

Are Fans Ready To Forgive Konami As It Makes A Potential Return To Gaming?

Konami has blemished its reputation after venturing into many things outside of gaming, leaving some of its iconic IPs to collect dust.

Next are going to be free games with online pachinko accounts.

Nah, the games they've released since 2015's Phantom Pain have been cheaply budgeted, sloppy, poorly thought-out games. Unless if they start releasing masterpieces again, which they won't because they don't have the talent, nor the willingness to budget for quality games anymore, they aren't worth forgiving.

Just releasing a bunch of emulated classic games, or sloppily porting MGS games onto modern hardware isn't enough. It has to be NEW GAMES, not remasters, and no emulation or ports. But without the talent that made them an amazing company in the past, it all means nothing.

Starfield Tops 10 Million Players

Bethesda announced Starfield has surpassed 10 million players.

Obscure_Observer1d 12h ago

Another Milestone for the biggest game of the year!

Congratulations Todd, everyone at Bethesda and Team Xbox!

I'm 26 hours in now, and it's definitely been a lot of fun. Though, I'm already running across a lot of copy/paste areas. Like, even the items in the areas were in the exact same spots and were the exact same things I found last time. I feel like it could have used a little more randomization when it comes to the areas of interest you find. Surprisingly there really haven't been many glitches on the PC version, at least. I've seen a few bodies go flying for no reason, and some objects as well. Had one odd quicksave error too. Other than that, it has run pretty dang well overall.

ZeekQuattro1d 7h ago

Yeah. I had it happen more than a few times. On one planet its a secret facility where scientists were killed by their experiments that broke loose. On another planet its the same secret facility as before but the scientist are killed by either the Va'ruun, spacers or pirates.

EasilyTheBest1d 1h ago

Yea thats great numbers no matter how you look at it.
Definitely think this game will go on & on for years with all the updates & extra content that's sure to come.

Dazelya1d 1h ago

Biggest game of the year? You guys are really believe this? Hogwarts Legacy, Street Fighter 6, Mortal Kombat 1, Final Fantasy XVI and ofc Baldur's Gate 3... These games are real "big games" not Scamfield. At the same time, Alan Wake 2, Spider-Man 2, CoD: MW3 and maybe Lords of the Fallen will also be big games. But again, not Scamfield...

InUrFoxHole1d 1h ago

Look... he said it twice so it's funny now 👏

shinoff218318h ago(Edited 18h ago)

Aside from maybe bg3 starfield imo is definitely better then every released game you mentioned.

To say scamfield is kinda ironic cause you listed mk1 , doesn't mk1 have dlc day of extra fighters. Now that's a fking scam

10 million is pretty good but two things it still isn't sales numbers, and the other is if there's 30 million gamepass subscribers or more. I hope a aaa game on gamepass can hit 10 million. Shit if Spiderman 2 was on ps plus day one I think it'd hit the same and it's only on ps5 not pc also like starfield

Armaggedon13h ago

Starfield is a big game. It terms of sheer size and content, it is the biggest game of the year. I wouldn’t call it a scam, as Bethesda has improved significantly on many facets when compared to their previous games. Also, they put just as much hard work into Starfield if not more, the hard work just manifests differently than what people are looking for. People notice the improvements Baldurs gate has made over Divinity, because it is in your face industry standard stuff: Better presentation, graphics and writing. Bethesda is lagging behind in these areas compared to tother titles, but Starfield is superior in terms of what Bethesda does best with their games. Its just that people dont seem to care about those things as much as getting a cutscene for talking to a random NPC. Thats why Starfield is so decisive. Those who recognize the value it offers think its their GOTY, those people are just fewer in number.

@armageddon
Biggest in size and content? I think baldurs gate 3 has that beat. Unless you mean empty space.

Biggest game of the year my ass.

generic-user-name23h ago

Probably good for Xbox standards, but looking at Steam we can already see a big fall off in peak concurrents and Baldur's Gate 3 significantly ahead of it despite being out a month earlier. Hard to see how it can be classed as the biggest game of the year. Maybe the biggest of September.

Soulsborne23h ago

Going by achievement completion % on both platforms, its safe to say the majority of people hopped on Gameass tried it and uninstalled within the first few hours. Imagine celebrating ppl passing up on your game, right after the leak. Coincidence?

ravens5222h ago

Lmao. Your hilarious. I hope you spend as much time playing the game as you do defending it and ms.

andy8521h ago

Biggest game of the year? Did zelda and hogwarts and their sales suddenly not exist 😂

MrNinosan20h ago

Still talking about Hogwarts Legacy?

andy8519h ago(Edited 19h ago)

Well it sold a boatload and it's currently top of the sales charts, above the game that he says is the biggest game of the year so yes 😂

Barlos3h ago

Why not? It's not as if it doesn't exist just because it's been out a while

343_Guilty_Spark20h ago

Exactly glad to see Jin_Sakai play so much Starfield. He’s loving it.

Armaggedon5h ago

Those downvotes are furious.lol

Barlos3h ago(Edited 3h ago)

Biggest game of the year 😂😂

I think you're forgetting (or ignoring) the existence of Baldur's Gate 3, which is bigger than Starfield by most metrics.

Ah but it's not Xbox yet, so I guess it doesn't count?
