Whatever the reason, if it's happening next week they can't really stop it by deleting a thread.Guess
Yeah in the Xbox thread
Xbox Game Studios + Bethesda + ABK |OT31| Perfect Doom Microsoft - Activision/Blizzard - OT
Finished Harold Halibut and Beyond: Good & Evil and now on the hunt for my next game. Going through the End of Summer Sale on the Xbox store and came across a game I've never heard of or seen before: Fossil Fuel 2, a first person survivor-horror game with dinosaurs!! May be the closest thing to...

He surely didn't expect it will blew out of proportion
Somebody at MS probably contacted him or resetera.
I don’t know what else made him decide to do that.

My theory: The leaks the first time around probably got so out of control and widespread that it permanently damaged whatever traction Xbox hardware had. Not that going third party wasn’t the plan, but more like it wasn’t supposed to become viral news. So now MS themselves want to control the message.
Which one? Was it the one where, for vrownie points, he called out his 3 year old son for being racist and said that Batman is a black man.
That was him? I remember reading about that and how strange it was to talk about his son like that to the internet. Especially considering the child's young age.
Yeah, probably. But I don't see that as a major title. It always felt like multiplat, just like whatever Bethesda does next. A major game for me would be a core xbox title, like Halo or Gears.
If it is Disney got paid more for no change to the original agreement.
Spencer is some dopey fraud.
Yeah it probably isn't major like halo or gears would be as those are tentpole titles for Xbox.
But losing the biggest console exclusive this years is gonna sting.
If that's true, it would also be funny for another reason. After acquiring Zenimax, MS negotiated with Disney to not release on PS and Disney agreed:
Source.
Given Xbox's current situation, the "bigger marketplaces" line really stands out. Personally, I'm just enjoying watching Phil having to walk it back. The absolute arrogance of trying to spend the competition out of business deserves the results we see today - and the continued mockery of those who attempted it and those who cheered for it.
Probable, but the damage is already done.
Shouldn't even say "damage" because this is what MS wants to do in the long-term; they just didn't want everything to be so known, accepted so openly, so soon.
So not day one but a couple months after.
I bet Avowed will be day one on PS5 though and that's why it got delayed.
MSFS2024 day one on PS5.
Starfail "gOtY eDiTiOn" on PS5 too.
Hellblade 2 port probably in development as we speak.
Everything is going as planned.
