Nintendo and Activision Unveil Limited Edition Controller Bundle,
Giving Gamers the Ultimate 00 Agent Arsenal.
Ubisoft announced on recent earnings calls that it has already recouped the cost of Activision/Blizzard streaming rights - which were only between €50M and €100M.
Activision has published a new patent that wants to create NPCs capable of reacting with AI-generated audio and animations in games.
Have people forgotten that the 'A' in 'AI' stands for ARTIFICIAL? As in not real, as in the opposite of realism? AI-Generated content is the opposite of realism.
Microsoft and Activision have announced a AA-focused splinter team, making Tango Gameworks' closure baffling.
Yea let’s shut down a AA studio that just put out a great game and open another AA studio out of nowhere. I swear Microsoft never make any sense.
Microsoft constantly talks about creating new studios but most of their titles end up coming from studios they just threw money at 🤷♂️
Remember when they hyped The Initiative as their Naughty Dog? It's been 6 years and we've seen a trailer....
Bottom line is the Xbox part of Microsoft is in a helluva mess. The pivots are snapping ankles.
Obviously the team that remained after so many left didn't meet the needs of MSFT. A new team is not unusual for new projects. Some of the old team moved on internally and we do not know where they all went. The resources elsewhere that were freed up could likely have even been a part what spun up this new studio. Resources move. Just not in Tango Austin anymore.
I'll import this then.
I already have a black classic pro... i don't like gold peripherals anyhow.
