Weird that my comment saying how I was excited to play these games on my PS5 (as MS has confirmed their strategy to go multi platform) was deleted for “trolling/baiting”.
@Sifi Not sure the closures of London and Tango are comparable considering London’s output over the past 20 years has been casual, VR, and EyeToy games whereas Tango’s output consisted of four good to awesome AAA titles.
Just a PSA: if you haven’t purchased Hi-Fi Rush yet, I would soon bc there’s a high chance MS will delist the game from storefronts once the rights to the licensed music are up.
@ZuneTattooGuy nowhere did I say Team Ninja was owned by Sony. What I’m saying is there are only 1st party and 3rd party published games. Second party is a term made up by gamers and none of the three major platform holders would refer to a game as “second party” just because an external studio developed it.
Games like Heavy Rain, Until Dawn, and Detroit l: Become Human we’re/are considered 1st party PS games because they were published by Sony even though they were made by external development teams.
The way I see it— in the current situation where Xbox is clearly in third place, did they (MS) really need to give consumers another reason (as small as it may be) to choose a PS5 over an Xbox console?
Whatever the announcement is, MS has caused damage to the Xbox brand by letting the rumors and speculation run wild, as well as leaving their diehard supporters in the dark for a week.
This is a fire that MS should have put out yesterday. Whether or not they are putting games on the PS5 and Nintendo Switch, they are essentially letting the rumors run wild.
I’m a longtime PS fan, so none of this stands to affect me in the short term, but I don’t want to see Xbox go away bc we need competition in this industry.

@Kaloudz excited for it.
What would you compare it to?

@DeanyBabyy please elaborate on what’s going to be so “woke” about it? 😒
Re: Two More Xbox First-Party Games Are Moving To PS5 In 2025
I think it’s safe to say everything is coming to PS5 and (probably) the Nintendo Switch 2 at this point.

@PsBoxSwitchOwner Glad I’m not the only one who noticed they always bring up Sony.

Re: Former Blizzard President Gives Support To Phil Spencer Amidst Xbox Negativity
@CaptainCluck The Last of Us Part 2, Spider-Man 2, the Life is Strange series, etc. all say hi. All of which have sold millions.
The anti-“woke” crowd is full of the most insufferable blowhards I’ve witnessed on the internet.
Re: Xbox Is Shutting Four Studios, Including Arkane Austin And Tango Gameworks
Really odd that they are shutting down Tango a year after released their most critically acclaimed game…
Re: Xbox Doubles Down On Highly Ambitious Plans For Next-Gen Hardware
@awp69 A lot of gamers have backlogs so large, that waiting a year for a game to come to their console doesn’t sound bad at all.
Re: Founder Of Xbox-Owned Studio Tango Gameworks Sets Up New Company
Hoping he creates a new survival horror IP.
Re: Dragon's Dogma 2 Performance Review Throws Up Mixed Results On Xbox
@UBERSICKO Makes sense that they’re going to prioritize the platform that the game is going to sell the most on.
Re: Deliver Us The Moon Dev Issues Plea To Publishers, Says It's The Team's 'Last Resort'
Deliver Us the Moon was really good. I hope they manage to make it through this… too many studios closing.

Re: Xbox's Sea Of Thieves Becomes 'Best-Selling' Pre-Order On PlayStation 5
@Sakai I mean, second party is technically a made-up term, but I see what you’re saying.
Re: Xbox's Sea Of Thieves Becomes 'Best-Selling' Pre-Order On PlayStation 5
@Sifi
Stellar Blade, Rise of the Ronin, and Concord are all 1st party, AAA games coming this year to PS5.
All of those games are Sony-published which equals 1st party.
Re: Xbox's Sea Of Thieves Becomes 'Best-Selling' Pre-Order On PlayStation 5
@ZuneTattooGuy
For 2024:
Rise of the Ronin
Stellar Blade
Concord

Re: Microsoft Announces Official Date & Time For 'Updates On The Xbox Business'
I hope they will be direct and forthcoming whatever the news is; their fans deserve transparency.
And I’m saying this as someone that has never owned an Xbox console.

Re: Sony Just Wants To 'Block' Merger, According To Activision Blizzard CCO
@ActionPanther I agree. Jim Ryan is the Don Mattrick of Sony.
Re: Sony Just Wants To 'Block' Merger, According To Activision Blizzard CCO
Even as a Sony/PS fan, this is getting really ridiculous and doing more damage to Sony's image than they think.
I say let the deal move forward.
Re: Poll: How Would You Grade The Xbox Games Showcase 2022?
I don’t even have an Xbox as I’m mainly a PS gamer, but I have to give it up to MS, they really showed some cool stuff in that presentation.
I’m happy for Xbox and Xbox gamers 👍
Re: Ubisoft Is Reportedly Trying Again With A New, 'Different' Battle Royale
There's no one I trust less to support a live service game than Ubisoft right now.
Re: Ghostwire: Tokyo Studio Is Developing A 'Completely New Title' At Xbox
@Medic_Alert
Exactly. To me, a 7/10 was always considered a good game.
Also, if The Evil Within 3 is announced, along with a Prey sequel, and Starfield turns out to be a banger, I would definitely consider getting an XSX.
Re: Poll: Where Do You Want GTA 6 To Be Set?
Boston, MA and it’s suburbs.
