Xbox Game Studios |OT3| Once more....with feeling (Part 1)

Xbox Access, however I feel it might get confused with the all access program

So Hoeg’s law did a video on Bethesda’s legal trouble and one interesting thing he mentions is that one of the things they would have to do to get an injuction (which he also clarified courts always hate doing to begin with) is to prove to that the purchasing company would be unable to cover any damages that may be due if the lawsuit is successful. So X-Law would have to prove Microsoft would not be able to pay them damages, which as you can imagine would lead to them being laughed out of court.

Inside Xbox is a good name. Why not just keep the name but adjust the format to be more like a direct/state of play?

Games with Xbox all the way x2.

Tainted with a bad reputation. You need everyone to know that this is a new thing.

Hoeg Law is good. I was his videos from time to time depending on the subject. Microsoft can’t pay!!! They’re broke!!! Going bankrupt!!! LMAO. That shit is too funny.

Yea I doubt its going to court

Watching the video now. The plaintiff and his lawyers are trying to do a “prejudgment attachment” but in doing so may be required to post a bond in the amount of what the acquisition is for and for themselves…meaning the plaintiff and/or his lawyers would have to pay $15B in that bond to proceed. LMAO.

This case isn’t going to prevent or delay the acquisition and like Hoeg Law says, if there’s a single entity out there in which you don’t have to worry about being screwed out of getting paid, it’s Microsoft. The plaintiff and lawyers are actually concerned that ZeniMax may “weasel” (so to speak) out of the lawsuit by not having the money yet they will since they’re literally getting $7.5B as part of the acquisition.

While I believe the lawsuit itself is bullshit, my guess is that in a few months, it will either be thrown out of court or Microsoft/ZeniMax will just reach a small settlement just to end the damn thing.

Because it’s tainted at this point.

Could call it X.E. Short for Xbox Expand, Expanded or Expansion

Needs to be short and simple

The latest X.E regarding Bethesda is march 16 for example

I honestly think all it takes is one good show to erase all the bad feelings that are attached to the name “Inside Xbox.”

I think MS should use Game Informer to reveal thier exclusives. Bring back print journalism. Man I remember the period from 2008-2014 when each GI cover reveal was the subject of so much speculation

Yep I still have the ones that did halo reach 4 and 5 as cover story

The Bioshock and Batman covers were a major reason both became successful. Captured the hardcore interest

For the 1st event maybe, they could use Xbox + Bethesda Showcase, it’ll let people know that Bethesda are officially a part of XGS and this where they’ll get to see all the future Bethesda announcements. After that they can go back to using Xbox Game Showcase.

I don’t think Inside Xbox is tainted, all they need to do is saying tune into Inside Xbox where we will be discussing new infomation on Halo Infinite and Starfield and fix the format for the first one of 2021 and done the rep would be back. It’s not like they’ve had Xbox One launch type of bad events and unable to recover at all.

  1. Fix the format

  2. Tell people at the announcement of the first one that the format is different

  3. Have something big or more than 1 big thing to get people back (bad thing with this is people will expect it at every show)

I do think MS should have maybe Inside Xbox: Inside Halo Infinite sort of event for all games in the month of release with giveaways of merch, more info of the game, future plans and all that jazz. They would be shorter than normal inside Xbox’s maybe 30minutes but would be a hype up event for the upcoming games.

On another note is there a place to see every single XGS IP owned? would love to see that.

I’d beat you to it. :joy:

It is indeed a fun memey name to go with.

And each game focused event would be

“The Absolute State of Avowed Right Now”

“The Absolute State of Fable Right Now”

But all it takes are a good episodes and people will be satisfied.

And to be honest, the bad reputation is unwarranted, the last IX episodes, specially the last one have been bery good.

Edit: Though I just saw how I’m contradicting myself then lol

MS need to copy the Sony approach. Extensive professional deep dives for each reveal of thier exclusives
