    News Microsoft has pulled its $1 Game Pass trial ahead of CoD BO6 release

    This is the same thing they did in preparation for the launch for Starfield. I guess this is going to be a yearly thing now considering this is CoD we're talking about.

    Xbox BioWare trusts its players and therefore Dragon Age: The Veilguard will not use Denuvo

    Not only no Denuvo but the game is a Native app on Steam instead of sending you to their EA app. They're pulling all the stops. Tbh it's probably the right move when it comes to Bioware considering how players view them post Andromeda/Anthem, EA isn't very loved either. It's also true that...

    News Xbox exclusive flop The Lamplighters League causes publisher Paradox to abandon genre completely

    Lmao Paradox. They're really been on a run lately haven't they? All their games are buggy at launch and undercooked.

    News Metaphor: ReFantazio shipments and digital sales top one million

    I don't play them, but you know I follow sales, so it wasn't a surprise to me. The IP just has this much pull, plus this particular spin-off hadn't seen a new game since the late 2000s. The hype was through the roof since the first trailer and people who played hands-on at various events through...

    News Metaphor: ReFantazio shipments and digital sales top one million

    DB Sparking! ZERO is selling megaton, it's #1 in the US(and many other countries) on Steam and on PS as well by a landside. It will be the fastest selling Dragon Ball game ever, beating the recent DB FighterZ and DB: Kakarot. IIRC Bandai Namco does do first week sales announcement great selling...

    News Metaphor: ReFantazio shipments and digital sales top one million

    PSN reviews include reviews from the demo as well as the full game. Detroit: Become Human hit an all-time high CCU. For the most part due to China. The game is at an historical low of 70% discount. You see this often years down the line with how large the Chinese market is. I would not be...

    Discussion European Sales September 2024 | PS5 240K, NSW 66K, XBS 26K

    You're acting like that would be a disappointment. The game was probably like $40-50M to produce + market. At that number of copies sold, it'll be a very very profitable game.

    Discussion European Sales September 2024 | PS5 240K, NSW 66K, XBS 26K

    AstroBot sold a bit less compared to Ratchet across all of Europe compared to the UK, but it's still up. Good news, but maybe not as much as I would've hoped, Little robot go! Also, No wonder the CCO of Saber Interactive said that W40K: Space Marine 2 changes everything for the company. I...

    Multiplatform Black Myth Wukong budget was $43M

    Two mobile games released before they started working on Black Myth: Wukong in 2018. They even moved to another city to lower the costs, it was looking not so great.

    Multiplatform Black Myth Wukong budget was $43M

    IIRC The studio was even paying much lower than industry standard for Black Myth: Wukong this was due to their earlier projects not doing well, they couldn't afford to pay them. This game was them tripled down one last time with their investing partner, studio was likely to close if it didn't...

    Discussion Women gamers have some explaining to do... - "Love and Deepspace"

    This is the advantage of being the only player in town. This is the same thing as The Sims 4 still being played quite a lot and raking in the DLC/MTX money. You wouldn't know looking at the usual discourse, but them ladies are playing the shit out of it still, even after all those years.

    Discussion I said that Steam doesn't have State of Plays or Showcases: I was wrong

    Next Fests are to play and potentially find cool upcoming indie games and other smaller games through demos, that's about it really.

    Stalker 2 is releasing November 20, if there isn't another delay. That's way past the cutoff date for nominations for TGAs.

    Discussion Single Player Gamers - Why do you dislike multiplayer?

    There's a reason there's a quadrillion monetization schemes by publishers to prey on people's FOMO. People are just wired that way.

    Playstation First PS5 Pro Previews are coming up

    Nah the first person who coined it was John on the DF Direct special for the reveal of the PS5 PRO. Richard,the adult in the room, even shot the idea down initially but I guess the DF community liked it so much because they've calling it the funny name sporadically.

    Discussion Single Player Gamers - Why do you dislike multiplayer?

    I love both MP and SP games, although I haven't too many MP games recently. The reason is simple, the MP games I like and the ones with high apm. Why am I not playing them anymore? It's the wrists my dude, they're cooked.

    They've already done support work on a few projects IIRC besides their work on PC ports. One such instance would be for Concord(lol) Going by the credited people, they were used to art some of the map(s) for the game.

    Xbox Xbox co-founder J Allard has joined Amazon

    Here's what J Allard has been doing since leaving Microsoft from Wiki: I'm seeing a pattern, I think he left for passion, outdoors stuff. Which is totally cool, and good for him, but not really related to what he had done previously. But what about most recently? Lmao, I bet he got sold...

    Analysis Unreal Engine 5.5 Megalights Tech Demo (Running on a PS5) | Unreal Fest 2024

    A lot very advanced rendering stuff in there won't be used in games just yet as they are prohibitively expensive to run real-time, but it's cool to see nonetheless. Unreal Engine ain't just games nowadays. Lots of "under the hood" stuff in this update. More options in several areas of the...

    Playstation Jason Schreier "Horizon Online Next for Guerilla, Horizon 3 'Ways off', Sony's Live Service Initiative was no joke"

    It could've been. Forbidden West could've had some tacked-on thing, but it's clear Guerilla is aiming bigger with the MP ideas. And when you aim bigger, well that means a full project and the reality of game development in the current age is just long ass dev cycles. Considering they didn't...
