It's time for new Management, Phil did a good job keeping it all alive but we're at the point where his decisions are not working and the brand needs to fresh new direction.
@Tasuki We don't know if Microsoft was to blame, they've already put them blame on themselves, plus, given how Blizzard has done things for a while, this actually doesn't surprise me.
@GalacticBreakdown As someone who bought and played both story and DLC on PC, I feel it was not right for the Xbox Players to be left out, any game that gets released for all platforms should be given equal opportunity of purchasing DLC. And to this day, I still think the devs were wrong to do that to the Xbox players, and I'll be honest, I'm not hyped to support them since they've refused on both counts of releasing it for the Xbox players and not telling anyone with a good reason except for the usual BS responses. And it does feel insulting knowing they could have just released the DLC and not the enhanced version. And knowing how SONY has been for a while, I wouldn't be surprised if they made it that way.
Least we got Crisis Core... I want the remakes and the other FF games to finally come to Xbox, I bought a PS5 just to play them, but the problem is, I hardly play my PS5, despite all the fun games, I'm not motivated enough to play my PS5 enough than I am my xbox series x. It's my main console I prefer.
But the thing is, for whatever reason, I have doubts the FF7 remake or even the up coming chapters will ever make it to Xbox... that's negative, but after the things I've seen that SONY has had under their library, it's hard to imagine it.
One of my favorite games, Terminator: Resistance released on all platforms, but for whatever Reason the DEVS never gave the DLC content to Xbox or even enhanced it for the series consoles which part of me suspects that may be why. ONLY PC and PS got them.
It's the few games like that that tells me SONY has been playing serious hard ball to keep Xbox as Phil Spencer says, small.
They blocked Spider-Man from Xbox after it being on their for many years, KOTOR came first on original Xbox, Destiny having exclusive quests in the past, oh and then having exclusive stuff in Call of Duty today, and now I hear the game Hogwarts is getting a PlayStation exclusive quest, they are such hypocrites complaining about something like this. We seriously gonna go back to what Xbox does is bad and what SONY does is good? Microsoft may have been shady in the past but things have changed now, the least Microsoft can do is not abandon the PlayStation fans of COD.
@HarmanSmith Sorry to hear that, hope you find one in your life eventually, and maybe hoping for this rumor to finally happen. And yeah, it wasn’t a bad game, but it sure wasn’t on par with what the original had. Just felt like a COD style game almost.
I'm done taking rumors as a maybe, As great full as I am that this game is returning, I've just about given up on the idea of the remake coming to xbox.
Glad this will at least bring people back till Infinite gets enough to bring people back. Hope they make coop crossplay on all the stories. Had fun playing with my PC friend.
Are they gonna at least give the original first game the treatment and not the ultimate edition? Cause I was a bit disappointed in how they didn't manage to bring back to horror feel from the original.
After learning some interesting info from people at 343, I know that adding bots to MCC, would be either good, or bad. And I mean bad for the games stability. And lately fans are complaining about the newer added stuff but I don't see much of an issue with that.
With or without Gamepass, I'd still get an Xbox. Might wanna change some of the options to choose a bit more different instead of not being interested in gmaepass.
@blinx01 Woah. Strangely that was my first assumption, family issues, but I took what was written as maybe the possibilities. Very sad really, I’ve been there, and it’s not easy to get over, took me a month and a half to try and work again.
After reading it, it sounds like the guy wasn't happy and hardly knew anyone he could connect with, probably feeling out of place. Also the lack of communication of not knowing it was Perfect Dark. Can't help but feel maybe this guy wasn't that big of a deal for the project to let him know ahead of time. (UPDATE) The guy lost a family member, I know how that feels and how it can impact ones life. He needs time.
