roun90 Posted September 22, 2020 Report Share Posted September 22, 2020 (edited) Major news out of this though - Todd Howard now has a whip on top of him. Hope MS cracks the whip efficiently to ensure ES and Starfield don't take forever and are not a buggy mess anymore. Anyway, this is major, major news and MS has acquired excellent studios that will hold them in good stead. That said, personally I'll still be going PS5 (Though most prob not on launch). Sure-shot all Yakuza Games, Persona Games, Final Fantasy, Trails of (Cold Steel/Sky) Games, Ys Games and other JRPGs along with the actual 1st party exclusives will still require me to get a PS5.

I don't think streaming will be particularly popular in Japan as well. Well who knows they might end up buying some Japanese company next week and suddenly catch the imagination of japanese gamers. PS- I'm still not sure if they'll support the one x fully this generation. It has more power than the series s. If yes, then it makes more sense to pick up the cyberpunk edition now.

Heard people on Era saying ES worth over 1billion Also Im pretty sure They will release ES first Xbox and pc and 1 year later PS5 for 70$. Simple. ES6 will sell even after 1 year. Skyrim still sells everywhere for 40$ on consoles lol Sony doing same with FF16. So MS is like we will do that also bitch. You JRPG power house and WRPG power house Edited September 22, 2020 by WhiteWolf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The buyer always pays a premium.But i think it was all worth it. Look at how the reaction around Xbox brand has changed literally overnight. You can't put a figure on that.

i_rock098 Posted September 22, 2020 Report Share Posted September 22, 2020 Hope they don't start cutting fat out of these new studios MS has a decent track record of treating their studios fairly. People talk about the Rare flop but nobody talks about the fact that rare chose to make shovelware on their own choosing. This was not MS forcing them.Phill is not like other heads before him, he is very smart despite people here calling for his head after the infinite showcase.

Keano Posted September 22, 2020 Report Share Posted September 22, 2020 (edited) Personally, I am happy that MS is flexing at the right moment(a day before preorders going live). The gaming side of things have been doing so bad for the last 6-7 years. MS doing good is good for me too Will not buy the Series X/S as everything will be available on PC anyway. Upgrading PC+PS5+Switch will be my next gen thing. Am glad that I bought 3 years worth of GamePass Unlimited for the low price during last thanksgiving.

Maybe not immediately - but after the holidays. MS generally re-orgs after holidays and after end of FY.
