XboxEra Community Hangout |OT5| Season of the Infinite.. Arguments

Would you look at that, Returnals not nearly as popular (or as good) as some people would make it out to be

I’ll play when it comes to Game Pass, it’s not getting my money.

How well did Returnal sell? I didn’t realize it wasn’t that popular, I thought it had a cool story. I hope it doesn’t put devs’ off of trying more trippy sci-fi stuff.

EA sneaky

Like a hair under 600K as of Summer. It’s a niche game so I’m not sure why anyone expected it to win the popular vote or something like that lol.

Sony fanboys tried to make it seem bigger then what it is but I don’t think it’ll put devs off from making ambitious games like it.

I liked it and thought it was quite good, it was just too hard for me personally.

Around half a million I think.

The grey box with white writing looks far better than the others

Two very big Respawn devs (Apex Legends Design Director and Game Director respectively) leaving the same day, definitely weird. Wouldn’t be surprised if the whole shakeup happening right now has sumn to do with it. :thinking:

CrossfireX, it’s alive.

Could MP release this year after all? Hopefully a update on SP soon too, it’s been a good, good while.

Of course they don’t take a side. Imagining they boycott Activision Blizzard, but have Sony and Ubisoft in the audience. :matrick_emote:

Did Grubb say Avowed and HB2 at the VGAs?

The number was around 570K. So even at 600K, that’s spotting them an extra 5% of sales, quite generous.

Looks like Microsoft was trying to promote Xbox on national Television in the Clippers Vs Lakers game. Too bad ESPN switched it out for Suns Vs Warriors.

I’ve been seeing Xbox commercials when watching NFL or college football games, but that might be from YouTubeTV filling in their commercial slots with targeted ads. However, they didn’t have the yellow Ad Info box like those typically have, so I’m going to guess they were national ads.
