They have a few very big mobile games and a ton of experience in the space that would be valuable to Take 2. One of the big issues is the company is still recovering from the mistakes made while Don Mattrick was made CEO after he left Xbox
So that dude ruined things everywhere he went

pretty interesting what Nick said on the podcast about final fantasy and forspoken. I will say one thing. We better not get a show of CGI trailers again. I hope we get lots of gameplay from all these studios
What?
He said that Forspoken could be rescheduled and replaced with FF16 on about the same date. It would be cool to have God of war, Tlou Remake, and FF16 for the end of the year.

Can someone explain why people complain about Achievements on Xbox? I never cared for achievements, but last I checked the achievements are just the same as trophies on PS, and achievements on Steam. They are literally the same exact rules and challenges that if you do you get them, and if you get them all you get 10000 GC while on PS you get a platinum. So, whatâs the complaints about exactly?! Plus, on Xbox if youâre lucky you live in a region where you get MS rewards for some achievements

Oh ok, but isnât that always what was supposed to be, excluding TLOU R which only recently was rumored?
I still donât know whatâs the relation to cgi trailers and gameplay because I thought that related to the Xbox showcase from @Thebaconlife 's og post
Xbox, zynga and stadia
Where he is right nowđ
You might be thinking of Phil Harrison there lol.

Because platinum is a fun cherry on top when you get all trophies, 1000 g has less perceptive value. And on PlayStation trophies for dlc or expansions are counted separately from main game.
Jeez, all of that could seriously still be coming for PS this year? Damn.
Sony of course money hatted Forspoken and FF16 and MS betted on Stalker 2, they couldnât have foreseen what would happen. When did development on TLOU Remake start?

Literally like 3 of the cool games they had that would fill the gaps right now and this year were affected by the situation in Ukraine. Unfortunate and unlucky.
But it is interesting how a lot of Microsoft third party deals always have some issues (unforeseen or sometimes kind foreseen)
Foreseen like which ones?

Achievements on Xbox have not changed much in the last 5 years and have even regressed a bit compared to 360 where you could see all your completed games.
People want something exciting and/or new.

Cyberpunk 2077 for example.
I think if they played the game a little bit they could see all those issues 
I seriously doubt that people were not aware in which state the game was.
And how do you know that they wouldâve known? Everything CDPR showed before the release looked fine and exciting. They gave media previews that were polished segments and only on high end PCs. The game even got high review scores at first.

Yep, and also Atomic Heart. Which games do you mean?
Stalker 2 was april and then delayed to December, I forgot about that. Atomic Heart is between September and December, but who knows when that will ever come out and the third one?
Replaced was by the Belarussian Sad Cat. Might still be coming this year since most of that studio went to Poland.

Fair.
I personally the only thing that I get out of them is that that they give you cool banners that could be set as backgrounds, a lot of them are cool af. And if I were in a country that supports Rewards I wouldâve cared more I guess. All these years and I have only one game with all GC and it was an easy straightforward one too. But I wish they do implement change, and I agree especially one where you could be distinguished from others in your friendâs list.
