By Smokey Go To PostIt was literally nothing outside of Diablo hitting GP and them staying in hardware. Didn’t even say the 4 games although Verge is saying they’re hi fi rush, pentiment, grounded, and sea of thieves.
Adults are upset .
They're not upset, they're just extremely Concerned.
It was damage control messaging beginning to end while basically confirming their multi platform plans for the next five years and GP failure to grow.
Phil should’ve come out big boi like and sell their future plans like it’s this incredible vision instead of being so limp and filled with excuses about the market and begging PlayStation and Nintendo to follow suit “Who does dis help no game for Xbox pls why waiting for reply” So soft.

There is no universe where bond and phil sit down and tell the 25 million xbox gamers to toss their boxes out the window,
this is a slow frog boil thing.
the freak out by the xbox community will not slow down because every game is now under the kosh for transfer.
outside of the Gamepass stuff, and the new high-end box coming down the line, those three wasted everyone's time. everything they said could have been a tweet.
Xbox leadership is in desperate need of fresh blood.
Phil has been there for 10 years and done nothing but spend.

Ahead of my hands-on preview with Unicorn Overlord, the new tactics RPG from developer Vanillaware and published by Atlus, I was told that nobody had beaten the demo yet. So I made it my mission to see if I could change that. Cut to two-and-a-half hours later, and I can see why people were having difficulty. I was in the midst of a massive battlefield, juggling multiple units of soldiers across a sprawling map and getting into fights with enemies twice my level. But after 45 minutes of strategizing (and the occasional save reload), I came out the victor.
Despite the game’s insistence that I was woefully underpowered for this conflict, all it took was some clever strategizing and careful combat to turn the tide in my favor. This was the moment Unicorn Overlord clicked. If anything is the mark of a great tactics game, it is the ability of the player to leverage strategy over raw power and win. My time with Unicorn Overlord’s opening hours left me eager to challenge even more powerful enemies when the game releases, just to see what I can get away with.
When I think of all the cash in remasters there's been over the years, I'm surprised they don't have a halo or gears collection coming to PS
By Zabojnik Go To PostOMG what is this
Whoever buys this and finishes it before Yurt, gets it for free.
Ori's team!!
March!!
By Plasma Go To PostMicrosoft are so bad at messaging, waited almost two weeks for that when speculation got completely out of hand?Out of hand? Armchair message board experts talked about Xbox and MS more than anything else in 2024 and got it done without any great games, and the simple announcement of 4 bottom tier games. lol A+ move
Buy Grounded if you don't have a Xbox, love that game hopefully this means it gets more updates.
Forget Xbox, From managing to get sole IP ownership for Elden Ring is wild.
Bandai Namco really fucked it with Blue Protocol huh.

Was going to go to bed early today. Now it's 2:30 cause I tried this fucking demo
By Laboured Go To PostMy brother it's not wrestling.If it was wrestling, Phil would've already been superkicked through a barbershop window brother.
There’s legitimately good games out rn to play and discuss but some of you are more concerned with the business decisions of the 4x third place consolebox manufacturer.
remember when some asshole uploaded this to kazaa and called it rammstein final fantasy?
that was some crazy shit
Game pass numbers are low so we just rename the other service to boost numbers. Next year they rename Office 365 to game pass 365 and Phil gets a big bonus.
Two hours after the initial email went out, an impromptu Campfire video meeting happened in which “Ilmar Kompus, his brother-in-law Tõnis Haavel and President Ed Tomaszewski announced the cancellation of X7, redundancies across the studio and answered some pre-selected questions,” Tuulik told us. “Easy ones.” Tuulik said that during his more than seven years at ZA/UM, this was the first time I ever saw microphones and comments disabled in any [emphasis Tuulik’s] meeting.”
He seemed flabbergasted at the tone-deafness of what leadership said during this call, quoting the trio to have said, “We are nurturing intellectual growth, fostering a strong sense of community with our team and creating games that are not just entertaining but are also deeply meaningful,” before he added, “I'm not making this s**t up. Those exact words.”
Concluding our conversation, Tuulik stated that “the fish starts rotting from the head, not the tail or the midsection. Don't get angry at the junior producer, mid-level lead, senior artist, community manager etc. They didn't know, were kept in the dark. It's not their fault. It was their love for Disco, not dystopian totalitarianism, that brought them here. It's their worst nightmare too.
“It's the people on top – the motherf*****s in sailing shoes and bowties – that f****d Harry, f****d Kim, f****d Robert, Rostov, Helen, Olga, Cash, f****d Elysium, f****d you and me too. They are not artists, they are professional f*****s,” he said.
Tuulik also referenced Tõnis Haavel’s background, saying it was “important to keep in mind that Tõnis Haavel is a convicted financial criminal. Inside the company he goes by Denis Havel to presumably make googling him less convenient to those around him.”
Haavel was sentenced to be guilty of investment fraud by an Estonian court in 2014. ZA/UM’s original writing team, which was accused of abusive behavior towards other employees and forced out from the studio in 2022, suspected that Kompus and Haavel used illegal means to gain control of the company, though they ultimately refrained from bringing the case to a court hearing.
By Patriotism Go To Postbut microsoft warchest
Gamepass but you don't actually get a pass for the all the games lmao.
Damn, it's taking me so long to finish the The Lost Crown I've just been billed for a second month of Ubisoft+. Guess I'll have to play Avatar now.
Finally got the double jump, now we're cooking for real. Game continues to be really, really good. Feels perfectly balanced on Hard.

By Patriotism Go To PostXbox Live Gold doesn't exist anymore, they changed it to Game Pass Core and instead of giving two games a month, they give you access to 25 games.
