I really want a lengthy Jason Schreier report on just WTF happened during Halo Infinite’s development. We got a short expose, but I’m very curious to know the fine details, because this entire game is a giant clusterfuck from beginning to end.

Imagine that. Developers, daring to develop a game with their own knowledge.

I’m willing to bet that 12 million also includes the Directors Cut rerelease of Human Revolution that had the boss fight changes as well.

I think a bigger part of it is just that a large portion of the CoD fanbase has made Warzone their primary CoD game that they play, rather than the multiplayer portions of the mainline games.

One of the things I like about the XBL service is the built in LFG system it just has for every game. Granted not every game has people actively posting in it, but it’s there an built into the invite system and works for people playing through the PC Xbox app.

My dream game would be to have Arkane make a Deus Ex.

Sadly I doubt that we’ll get a follow up to Mankind Divided even if we do get another Deus Ex at some point.

I’ve always maintained that SE is the most successful incompetent publisher around.

This is probably for the best considering SE always seemed to treat their western studios like the redheaded stepchild.

I’m gonna need some sort of head count for the number of people working at 343.

I think you’re right that all three console manufacturers source their analog sticks from the same subpar OEM.

Last Spartan standing is closer to Gun Game and Elimination game modes than anything battle royale mode.

If I remember correctly one of the ideas Ubisoft came up with for one of the AC games was set during WWII and it got dropped precisely because they felt it was too close to the modern day.

Gomez stated that he was “exposed to the lies and corruption of the government at a young age.”

The relationship between Rockstar and Remedy is so... strange? Like Rockstar doesn’t typically act as a publisher, yet Remedy also gave them one of their own franchises.

That’s kind of what I’m getting at, in that people tend to project/fetishize onto healthy male friendships. I feel like in a lot of media the only time main stream culture finds it acceptable for men to be vulnerable and emotional is when dealing with trauma, often violent trauma.

While I’m all for broader representation across media, I don’t think it’s exactly healthy for certain subgroups on the internet to automatically assume that any form of healthy male friendship and immediately jump to homosexual shipping. It feels very much like a fetishization of homosexual relationships, especially…

Hmmm, been meaning to get one for a while through points I’ve accumulated through MS rewards. While the prospect of jumping on this now is tempting, I’d still prefer to buy one completely free of charge.

GTA Online still requires a purchase of GTAV right? As far as I’m aware the only way to get it as a separate standalone free download is part of their Playstation deal with Sony and only for the PS5.

They do a lot of licensed stuff as an easy paycheck to fund other original IP’s.
