XboxEra Community Hangout |OT7| Define "AAAA"

Doomposting is defined as assuming the worst, either through litte or conjured evidence or even despite counter evidence. All of those posts are assuming the worst.

You quite literally said

with PS+ it will only get worse as they now will compete in that regard too

The way I see it is Xbox is here to sell its ecosystem, while PS is here to tell you to **** the other guy, stick with them. It’s basically how ā€œmomentumā€ can shift.

This is getting interesting,

For anyone that cares, Grubb also tweeted out there’s a strong chance SH is a PS5 exclusive. Now the question is…is that the Bloober game or the other rumored game by a Japanese dev? I believe VGC had sources tell them it was Kojima’s studio.

Maybe, does not really matter at this point. Maybe Sony got multiple games exclusive.

We can only be sure that none of them has XGS involvement.

At this point, just let the announcement come, everyone is saying differently.

This whole thing seems stupid. Publicly pausing a deal to do ā€œdue diligenceā€, I’m not sure it really counts as diligence if you leave it till after making an offer to start thinking about this stuff. Especially when he even made a very public comment about getting rid of all the bots on twitter, it’s clearly not an issue he’s unaware of. Not to mention a back and forth of information in these deals to confirm this and check that seems fairly standard - publicly announcing the deal is on hold awaiting information but that he still intends to proceed with it seems like meaningless showmanship unless he is truly setting the scene to back out of it.
I guess I shouldn’t complain too much, I was hoping this would explode in his face and it appears that is the route we are going.

Yeah I’m looking forward to seeing where they’re going with it story wise with the sequel.

Edit: Was coming here to bitch about how Twitter and xbox discourse is pretty much a shit show. But then i remembered that could be said of any given moment there. I’m thinking about just muting the words ā€œStarfieldā€ and ā€œRedfallā€, but then i’d have to do ā€œGamepassā€ and ā€œxboxā€ all together. Reminds me of the atmosphere just before E3 2018.

I’m sure if Xbox had the opportunity to make silent hill exclusive he would pass on it you know because why would he want to do that

Oh sweet. I am not really into these games much, but I did love me some Theme Park back on PC in those PC gaming years.

Will definitely try it out. Nice get.

I hope Sony pays well with the service. That Oddworld article is a bit of a eyebrow raise.

Yes, I think XGP would not go after Silent Hill exclusivity 100%

In fact does Xbox even having a history of making Sony-associated titles exclusive? They tried once with Tomb Raider (which was not even japanese) and the backlash was immense.

As long as the developers flock to their platform, Sony won’t need to do anything.

I mean indie developers complained about PS platform and praised Xbox, yet they skip Xbox and don’t skip Playstation.

Anyone that watched or is watching All of us are Dead?

Just saw episode 2 and I’m really enjoying it but something bugs me a little, maybe it’s just me.

At one point early on in the episode two characters are outside, they managed to get outside of the school. As far as I could see they could have started running and completely escape the whole school area and just run, find safety and get help.

Instead of that they climb atop a vehicle and back into the school building. Later again two characters do this by using a staircase, they too could have escaped the school. Or am I missing something?

Are you serious with this?

Assuming the worst does not mean what you think it means. That Sonys moneyhatting of third parties will get worse now that they have their own attempt at a Game Pass competitor is not assuming the worst. Especially when they will not be able to compete with Xbox first party organisation in terms of quantity and diversity.

Stop with putting words into my mouth since you are obviously not capable of reading what I write. It is not f***ing doomposting, you want it to be, but it is not. I don’t know what your agenda is here, but I want no part of your bs.

Yup and it’s hilarious to read all the mental gymnastic. :rofl:

The Chant is giving me Bloober Team vibes but the studio Brass Token is from Vancouver and this is their first game. They mention the ā€œcore creative team draws on extensive experience leading commercial and critical success in games, including Sleeping Dogs and Bully.ā€

I personally really enjoyed Blair Witch and The Medium so looking forward to this.
