Xbox on top, as it should be :phil_lmao:

In addition of the John Cena collab, looks like Blizzard are running a massive marketing campaign around the world for Overwatch 2 (certainly in anticipation of Invasion). Billboards, in theaters, on buses, trams, TV, YouTube, TikTok, Crunchyroll, Twitch, Spotify, etc… I love Overwatch so it’s pretty cool to see it.

Coincidence or planned?

Wow this is PS level advertising, with this and Diablo we might actually see Xbox advertise their games properly going forward.

Y’all kill me with this complaint about marketing more than way to do it with games but y’all still stuck in the past

59% currently. Some critics argued that it’s a big product placement. I mean yeah, it literally is the driving force (pun intended) of the protagonist.

I remember what they showed of the new Flashback game during Summer Game Fest last year looked promising. IGN now has a write-up about it, and it sounds promising, too.

Coming this November… That might be right around the time I’m ready for a bit of a break from Starfield. Crossing my fingers that it’ll come to Game Pass.

Up to 61% critics now. The movie will probably be fine for the audience who would watch it and they’ll have the fans out in full force giving it perfects.

It’s funny, even with all the state of the art graphics we have now, this stuff always impresses me the most. Day one!

Same here. I only have the downloadable version because the boxed 360 version was so damned expensive at the time. I would definitely have double dipped for it. That goes for P4 A Ultimax too.

It’s a tired argument that’s as valid as “Xbox is just Gears, Halo, and Forza”… meanwhile I took this pic of an ad I saw on Youtube (you know, the biggest video platform on the planet) of Starfield on June 28.

Yet there are still armchair analysts with no solutions and all complaints, still bandying how they haven’t seen any ads. Like you said too, I’m not sure where this idea that an ad only works when it’s a specific form factor :man_shrugging:

Persona 4 Arena too if I’m not mistaken. Also Virtua Fighter 5?

They’ve done this before it’s nothing new

Had to share this, this is too good. You can’t make this up.
