Ahh, Phil Harrison. The one who pushed Microsoft Game Studios to focus on multiplayer games. His biggest game is Fable Legends and the closure of Lionhead.

we’re back, baby

Didn’t Microsoft recently hire someone who was working with Google and possibly Kojima before leaving for Microsoft? If so, does anyone know who the person is? Or am I just misremembering?

Amazon Luna uses Windows Servers for their game streaming service, yes. Seems to be the easier way.

He was responsible for that? I guess he was the early Jim Ryan.

Well of course as you don’t need to port the games. Even Valve was aware of that and went with Proton instead for Steam Deck.

Kim Swift iirc, I think that’s who you mean

Wonder why he went to them with a DS2 instead of just Sony. Didn’t Norman Reedus claim DS2 is in development? Wonder what Kojima is gonna make for MS.

This guy was the Xbox EU boss and hates single player games.

I believe they were both part of the original executive team that launched the original PlayStation.

It is a bit wild that Phil Harrison really had involved in projects that have really rough beginning, whether they barely survived or died.

That would’ve been so funny.

Well shit, it’s official.

Keep in mind this version of the game already censored up some gore that was in the original Xbox 360 version release. (Also, it’s releasing on the Switch just fine… Lol)

As I said when I posted this when it was just a rumor, someone at Valve really hates Visual Novels.

They should put it on GOG which is more accepting of these games lately.

Wish the MS Store would take it too but I bet this would scare MS away.

Music to my ears what they are saying there. But man, that reveal is gonna be a long, long ass wait I have a feeling.

He ain’t wrong

I despise Google, can’t say im upset they crashed and burned

I need this, BGS games are awesome but they are more about exploration and the world rather than choices

If inxile can bring that heavy decision making into a big AAA FPS world, oh baby
