why? :ko:

what kind of ad is this?

 

Think they made this in 5 mins after watching that "wear your weakness bastard" Game Of Thrones Tyrion scene :giggle:

 

That's literally a flaw that they are highlighting with a song. But then, these guys have highlighted stuff like always online, drm, no resale of discs before. :lol:

Yeah, as if games don't leave PS Now.  ?

 

Every month or so games come and go on both Xbox Game Pass and PS Now (and pretty much every sub out there). Nobody is refunding nor paying for games but rather buying a subscription.

They usually stay 3-12+ months before being rotated. Here are the games leaving Xbox Game Pass on console in August:

  • Devil May Cry 5 (leaving August 14th, 2020) 
  • Kingdom Come: Deliverance (leaving August 14th, 2020)
  • Yoku's Island Express (leaving August 14th, 2020) 

All 3 stayed for a year before getting rotated. That's plenty of time to finish those. As far I remember only GTA V was removed after 4 months and was replaced by RDR2. Typical T2. 

 

If you think few games leaving every month after staying for 3-12+ months is a problem, then subscription isn't for you. Better off buying the game during a sale. Every subscription rotates stuff based on contract and also to keep library fresh.

Who said they don't? If you are talking about the comment. That person thinks that gamepass itself is leaving. :lol: He isn't talking about any game. Thanks to the epic music video. Why the f**k would a company make a video around the fact that the games leave its service. 

 

and one should play them before they leave

 

and keep a tab on when they leave 

 

and say goodbye game when they have left.

I don't know what they were thinking making the video. Jesus. That was awful.

Their excuse is also kinda bullshit, no? They have denied only because every game has to be certified but why does it matter? Its ultimately just streaming video like Netflix or any other streaming app. I doubt a game being streamed is capable of executing harmful code. 

 

Everything they do is arbitrary hipster bullshit.

Apple being anti-consumer is something people just realized?

 

If Stadia/xCloud really take off, why mid-core players would play F2P mobile games then.

The Match-3/Hypercasual/Casino will remain same, but the Action/RPG/MMOs on mobiles will be hit.


Apple made $50B from AppStore last year and it's ever-growing. Apple will be losing billions if they lose just 10% of their IAPs.
Their VOD was never match to Netflix, so they didn't push.

I mean why would you play PUBG when you can play, far better looking console multiplayer titles with much higher fidelity.

Data speed is no longer a problem anywhere in the world, even on mobile.

 

So it is a strategic move....

As long as the ping to Azure servers is decent, this could easily become the next big thing in gaming.

 

Broadband is pretty decent everywhere for the most part but mobile internet is still pretty horrendous. I had to live on 4G this past week because of a broadband (line) cut in my area (because India :lol:) and oh f**k did I find out how shitty our 4G sevices are.

xCloud isn't launching in India, yet. But it will happen next year.

xCloud/Stadia will be launching  with Jio, most likely xCloud.

Timing could coincide with 5G launch.

No company is pro-consumer in capitalism. Remember MS pulled their games from Geforce Now because it was directly competing with their sub. And now they're bitching about Apple not allowing them entry in their walled garden.

I get like 5ms with Azure, the lowest between AWS, Google and Azure.

That's pretty nice! Have you tried comparing the ping with 4G? I'm guessing it's extremely bad.
