Capcom enters the fray for the best and most confusing press release.
Countdowns to announcements of announcements are becoming a common occurrence in the internet gaming media, with the advent of Twitter increasing the odd arrival of teasing comments from publishers and their PR companies.
Now Capcom has released a press statement that is not only confusing to read, but appears to be completely pointless
"This is GSD figures, which tracks all digital game sales from most major publishers (Nintendo data is absent), and physical game sales in all major European markets."
"The No.1 selling game in May this year was EA Sports FC 24, followed by Grand Theft Auto 5. F1 2024 races in at No.3. The PC release of Ghost of Tsushima: Director's Cut sends the PlayStation game up to No.4."
"11.6 million PC and console games were sold across European markets in May. Compared with the same five week period in 2023, that's a drop of nearly 17%."
"Hellblade 2, System Shock Remake, and the Rogue Prince of Persia all missing out on the Top 100."
I need an xbox fan to explain to me how Hellblade didn't even enter the top 100 since Game Pass doesn't effect sales and you guys are all just using the service as a trial to buy the games later.... /s (for sigh)
Also tell me again how 3.5 M sales first month for FF was bad...
If Microsoft didn't buy the developer this could have been a multiplatform game and if they wanted they still could have got it day 1 on Game Pass.
If I worked at Ninja Theory I'd be sprucing up my resume right about now.
In response to a player’s question, Rubin said it’s “very likely” you’ll be able to voice chat with the enemy team in the future—they’re “just not sure when [it will arrive] at the moment.” “It’s on the list,” he continued, so you can rest assured that the game’s development team is working on bringing it into every match you jump into.
New screenshots and a video of the in-dev build from the supposed reboot of Jet Set Radio appear to have made their way online.
More environment interaction, and some parkour elements, that's what I wanted to see. Artistic style is different, but not necessarily bad.
Looking forward to seeing more.
"Would you stop playing with that radio of yours. I'm trying to get to sleep. Yay!"
Bring it!
