Microsoft Using The Last of Us TV success to point out Sony's domination to disuade FTC 😂😂😂


The video has a segment about a tweet from Lulu Cheng, from Activision.


Lulu cheng is not a Microsoft employee.

FFS I know you guys have a persistent hate boner against Microsoft on this forum, but at least don't spread clearly fake info around, that's the kind of thing why people make fun of y'all elsewhere. 😬

People make fun of your shill ass EVERYWHERE. Piss off back to GAF, if they haven’t already banned you again yet. You clearly don’t want to be a member of this community in any genuine sense.

YOU talking about anything being "genuine", in a topic made on a lie, populated by drones posting "yes, and" replies.

That is one that ALMOST makes sense, when you consider that Halo Wars was a flop because the Halo audience are too dumb for RTS gameplay. MS just wanted more straightforward, original recipe Halo and not anything more complex, and Bungie was the Halo studio.

Of course, where MS was really stupid was in chaining Bungie to the Halo IP and refusing to let them do anything else, forcing them to buy their freedom and leave Xbox to rot.
It makes no sense. Destiny was massive, slap a Halo skin on that and it would have been even bigger. Bungie wanted to do that at a time when multiplayer was really taking off and seeing massive success. They let a multi billion dollar franchise walk out of the door because MS were too stupid.

I agree about Halo Wars though. I like the first one, but the second was dumbed down so bad it was pointless playing it.

the source material just isn't strong enough when it comes to halo. It was never going to be anything other than a B-level sci fi shlockfest.

Eh, they could've done a Starship Troopers. That was kinda B-movie but one of the best films of the '90s (even if it took time for critics to see it that way).

But, Starship Troopers had talented people involved. The Halo show didn't, or at least not in the right places able to make the right decisions.

MS is run by analysts, people without any creativity, but these are people who recognize it when an "IP" sells and they figured it was a shortcut for money. This is why they have a Halo studio, a Gears studio, two Forza studios, they had those franchises when they peaked, these were the succesful ones. This is also why they pretty much bet the farm on Kinekt, they were able to make a sales pitch that worked for it, so they figured that making a new version of it would work even better, while being completely oblivious of the limitations of the thing and the obvious backlash from gamers and the loss of interest from everyone else.

These hardcore Xbox centric Youtube channels are nothing but bullshit and cope.

Halo and Gears used to be on the same level of relevance as Sony's games until MS milked them to death and fucked up their entire first party output.

Sony's "dominance" is Sony willing to take risks with new AAA IPs and also respecting their current IPs by not releasing them in a shitty state like MS did with Halo Infinite. Sony knows when to let go of their older IPs and they take their time curating and respecting their new and current IPs.

They've now transferred that love and care that was put into TLOU games into the TV shows, and they are reaping the benefits of their hard work. MS released a botched Halo Infinite and then proceeded to insult the fans of Halo with a MasterCheeks TV show and are these weird Xbox fanboy channels are wondering why MS isn't as successful and also telling the FTC to go after Sony lol. Like the FTC is going to believe that a 2 trillion company can't compete by funding quality content lol. Poor little MS needs to go on an $80+ billion acquisition spree to compete with the juggernaut that is Sony, LMFAO.

Halo’s value as an IP in is the shitter. 343’s original releases have flopped back to back to back.

It always funny seeing comments like “halo is back”

At this point Halo is niche and not even remotely close to popular as any of Sony’s current major IPs.

What ?

When did "xbox" put Diablo 4 and CoD as Xbox exclusives? The deal isn't even done and the next Diablo and CoD are already confirmed multi-platform.

Your posts make no sense. 🤔
