Yeah. These days the developers and maybe 1-2 e-sports outfits are holding their own tournaments. Although it's teams that are being bought.
Was watching Closing Bell yesterday and they did mention that ActivisionBlizzard's stock doubled in 2015. Seems like they had some extra cash to spend. |
Yeah they just bought whats-its-nuts too.. the Candy Crush guys
Activision just eating everything |
Least it's not EA.

I think the direction with the One was that they wanted a Trojan horse in every living room so that people would be using it as a DVR with their Kinect and to have control of the household and go from there. Now that they've had to scale it back to be just another game console, the higher ups feel like they accomplished nothing. They put a lot into stuff like the NFL deals, the DVR stuff, and so they could try to make a small Xbox to go up against Apple TV - but it's too late, there's already a hundred other boxes out there, and no-one will want a gimped Xbox 0.5 In a word, Microsoft. |
My fave gaming success story is the failure of the Kinect. Idiots thinking that was going anywhere. Couldn't believe I had to explain to some why it was a dead fish.
|
Would be nice if they could integrate the Kinect speaking commands into the controller itself, as those are very useful.
|
Or actually use the mic to do just that. I'm sure they could.
|
Kinect was dead out of the box for me as voice commands weren't available in my region when it launched. I think they got them activated about 6 months ago but mine just sits behind the TV unused.

1) Ubisoft is currently rumored to be taking a year off for the Assassin's Creed franchise with a new game planned for 2017, act as a prequel to the entire series, and be set in Egypt. Also rumored the series itself will be moving to a two year schedule per main game due to franchise fatigue. http://www.destructoid.com/assassin-...7-331666.phtml http://kotaku.com/sources-next-big-a...pin-1750937895 2) Sega currently rumored to be developing a new Sonic game for the series 25th Anniversary based on musical band Crush 40 who teased they are preparing to work on a few songs for the game. http://www.destructoid.com/crush-40-...s-331389.phtml 3) Platinum Games announced Xbox One exclusive Scalebound has been delayed till 2017 with the official reason related to them needing a lot more time than originally planned. http://www.giantbomb.com/articles/xb...017/1100-5367/ 4) According to SNK, the official reason they are currently working on a new King of Fighters game is due to recent Japanese laws regarding pachinko gambling which has caused them to leave that market in favor of returning back to the video games market. http://www.destructoid.com/new-pachi...s-331241.phtml |
Oooooh. I really can't wait to be jumping off the Pyramids of Giza, driving chariots, and ultimately trying to kill Cleopatra.
I'll pass. But good on Ubisoft to start holding off on Creed and put it out every couple of years or so. |
Too little too late. Completely uninterested at this point.
|
Not at all bothered by Assassin's Creed now, completely ruined it with the yearly updates.
|
I really hope the next Xbox goes the 'PC console' route. It's a much more feasible idea these days. Have all the games work on your PC and Xbox and obviously fully cross-platform functional as a result. Since they would essentially be the same platform.
Yeah I just want a PC with a pretty form factor that controls like a console out of the box. And MS is far better positioned to provide that to me than anyone else. |
Also I know it will be Dark Cloud 3 but damnit Level 5 you need to make a sequel to Rogue Galaxy. You assholes did everyone a huge disservice by not making a part 2 of that when PS3/X360 were still new.

Ok Sony. The ball's in your court. |
599 is cheaper than I thought it'd be. Pretty reasonable tbh.

Gonna be honest. Super hyped for Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm 4. It's your typical shounen anime game, but they are mindless fun. The big thing though are the visuals. The previous games were drop dead gorgeous, and those were on 360/PS3. This one is on the new systems and I jizz in my pants a little bit every time I think about how amazing it's gonna look.
Kinda sucks that story mode only covers tne last part of the story, and you need all 4 games to get tne whole naruto saga, but whatevs. At least tney have most of the characters including pre time skip stuff in vs. Maybe the next game will be a giant all encompassing story that has everything from chapter 1-700, and the biggest roster ever. |
Played the demo. Pretty much looks better than the anime at this point.
I do fear they've reached the zenith of the combat system a few games ago (as Tenkaichi did at part 3) and they're just trying lateral experiments now. It's just how annual games end up. |

BREAKING NEWS
I bought an XBox One Elite Console because why the fuck not. I now have an XB1 finally.
|
Nice. Have the Elite Controller...really solid construction, but i'll be honest, as someone who's never owned a Scuff, it has taken me time to learn how to hold the thing without accidentally pushing the rear paddles.
Amazing customization with the X1 app though. |
Still no reason to buy an Xbox1 here.
|
The controller is great in Rocket League on PC, but since I only have Sunset Overdrive and Rare Replay, I've only used the hair triggers for Slalom on the console it's self. Saves me holding up to accelerate.

Square Enix has announced an event to announce the release fate of Final Fantasy XV on March 30th
Digging through the website source code has uncovered Javascript references to a Steam version so it'll probably come out on PC, which will be nice. |
Cool. Is 14 already out? 14's an MMO, right? Are 14 and 11 both running "concurrently" online and stuff
|
Went and pre-ordered Final Fantasy 15 today. The combat and "open" gameplay if you will, has me interested to give them $5 for the moment.
