cdpr went from grace of the gaming hope, to the utter shit, beneath EA. the fact that they hit worst reputation than EA is baffling. How dumb do they have, to out do EA to make gamers hate them fast. That is a trophy for them, gotta hand it to them.
gl, i am gonna wait 1 year at least. We have the digital one, here at home, cant touch it, since i have to respect his privacy.I don't think I can use Gamepass. Xbox isn't supported in my country. You should like have an xbox console and do some trickery with a US account then have it activated on PC.
Even without that hassle, Ascent is the type of games I won't play even for free. Maybe the next Forza? Not sure.
Ok, times up! R&C is playable now.

He became the boss of Xbox in 2014. Mattrick didn't even last 6 months after Xbox One released. Yes, Mattrick had lined a lot of things up prior to his departure that Spencer had to deal with. No doubt. But under Spencer, in fact two years after he took over, most of Xbox's first party was gutted. So either Spencer made the call himself or couldn't convince the ones who did to give him time to transform those teams into something his bosses would feel confident in. I remember that day the news broke. It was a huge shock. So at the very least Spencer didn't successfully manage those studios to keep at least some of them around. Nor did he crack the whip on remaining studios to improve their output. Nor did he successfully manage to get enough contracts with third parties to make up for the big gap. Spencer ultimately failed to provide the Xbox fanbase with a lot of great games and it will continue that way for a few years yet.
If you bought them in the Windows Store you could.
You can console war but you can’t make a truthful statement whereas Phil managed to do it.

Lol this thread would be 20 pages long if he had said that, when even the mildest, factual and indirect criticism causes this response.

1st, you don't understand business, which explains all your nonsense. Phil is and was a nobody at that time. Until satya promoted him in 2017. Meaning he had complete control of xbox at that time. before, he was an employee who had a boss. and couldnt do anything without them.He became the boss of Xbox in 2014.

HOWEVER, I will say that if Spencer can pull this off, if he can manage to get Xbox's market share a little higher or at least keep it from shrinking (good for share holders) and get the brand to a point where it produces a lot of great games and the studios are well managed (good for gamers), I will change my stance on him overall. I will still maintain he failed early on but will acknowledge he persevered. Like I said, I have NOTHING against Xbox. It's just a brand and a tool. I'm just not thrilled with how the people in charge handled it and I remain skeptical that they'll do a good job delivering the goods. And Obsidian is by far their best studio. Change my mind
Lol Jesus Christ you're a waste of time. Tell Papa Phil I said hi when he kisses you goodnight.
Why does he complain about people buying other games and consoles?
I hear this sentiment, along with "I'm not really enjoying gaming anymore" and "I'm not really playing games anymore" a lot in real life among people I know.

If we're playing "what if" games, imagine if Sony hadn't bought Insomniac and they were busy doing something else. Insomniac is single handedly carrying the PS5 so far.
Insomniac actually released a ton of great games recently so definitely an amazing purchase. Bethesda released nothing for next gen yet and funny enough their next game will still be PS5 and not on Xbox

200 MILLION for a Studio that had already made PS Exclusive games vs 8 BILLION...ok. The difference is Sony would still be in a similar position most likely.
Not sure what your point is. Zenimax came with a ton of very popular IPs, that's why it was expensive.
Nope. Without Insomniac, their line-up would be very lackluster. Miles seems to be the only game so far that sells well on PS5. We'll see how Ratchet does.
Have you ever played games via the Windows store?
He was a cheerleader and happy participant for that "dumpster fire" direction too.
