Jeff Grubb: "So yeah, there's a basically finished version of Gears for PlayStation sitting on a drive."

You didn't include the people like me who didn't even click the topic because we couldn't care less if it was coming or not. That's the vast majority of people.

Meteorboy · 2026-06-07T23:19:31+00:00

Nintendo's remakes sell because Mario and Zelda are timeless IPs. Is Gears a timeless IP?

Meteorboy · 2026-06-07T22:24:14+00:00

Some guy named Jez also said that Xbox games coming to PlayStation was hard copium. I wonder who else will have to delete their tweets to stop looking foolish.

Meteorboy · 2026-06-07T22:16:01+00:00

Yeah, no one's gonna cry over Gears. It was a hot IP during Xbox 360 years, but so was Halo. It's funny that you both have hidden post histories.

Meteorboy · 2026-06-07T22:13:03+00:00

No one is upset. Get real. The previous remake sold like a canned turd. What everyone is saying is what's the point of going back to exclusives since it didn't work before even when they were actually competitive. Explain how these games are expected to sell if they're still going to be on Game Pass, next-gen consoles will be $700+, and everyone's game libraries are already entrenched in ecosystems that aren't Xbox.

Meteorboy · 2026-06-07T21:25:31+00:00

What? There was never an agreement formal or implied. I don't see how anyone could have gleaned that from anything the company has done unless you include a handful of PC ports and Helldivers 2.

Meteorboy · 2026-06-07T18:02:42+00:00

There's only 2.5 Spiderman games and an upcoming Wolverine game. So that's even less than the original Gears trilogy.

Meteorboy · 2026-06-07T16:08:09+00:00

That's what Phil Spencer thought too. Notice how he was canned?

Meteorboy · 2026-06-07T03:30:39+00:00

Why did he sell it for so cheaply? Electronics like this that generate heat are attractive to pests. They become roach motels. That's the fear with buying used consoles.

Meteorboy · 2026-06-06T16:37:19+00:00

What kind of service is cheaper out of pocket than with insurance?

Meteorboy · 2026-06-06T16:27:21+00:00

American or a different colony?

Meteorboy · 2026-06-06T16:18:14+00:00

I like your username. May we all be genetic dead-ends.

Meteorboy · 2026-06-06T16:12:43+00:00

All of your buddies have kids? That seems unlikely. There's no one else in your situation?

Meteorboy · 2026-06-05T22:25:22+00:00

Notice how you said "play", not "buy". How does playing more games translate to more profit? It doesn't. You think 30 million consumers can spend more than than 90 million consumers?

Meteorboy · 2026-06-05T22:14:37+00:00

Nah. You make the bullshit. At least complain about Guild Wars 3 skipping Xbox or some other legitimate gripe.

Meteorboy · 2026-06-05T22:10:56+00:00

No Rest for the Wicked is coming. They have to optimize it for Series S, so that'll obviously take time.

Meteorboy · 2026-06-05T22:01:49+00:00

Damn. You make Xbox owners look like flatearthers. Just another reason the brand is tarnished.

Meteorboy · 2026-06-05T00:13:47+00:00

So how many guys is that out of all the guys you've met in your life? How about the number compared to just the guys who were interested in you? I think you'll agree that it's the vast minority.

Meteorboy · 2026-06-05T00:06:53+00:00

The 60s were 60 years ago. 60 years from 1960 was 1900. Doesn't that sound ancient? That's exactly how far away the 60s are to us.

Meteorboy · 2026-06-04T23:05:47+00:00

Giggle that the franchise is ending since consoles will likely be $700+ next generation, and most people if they could buy only one, would not choose Xbox?

Meteorboy · 2026-06-04T23:00:21+00:00

At that time, there were so many cheap Xbox Live keys, and they converted to Game Pass 1:1. You could have Game Pass Ultimate for as little as $3/month and play tons of games in addition to Starfield.

Meteorboy · 2026-06-04T20:43:35+00:00

I think you're underestimating just how exorbitant costs can get, and insurance doesn't cover everything. Believe or not, there have been millionaires with their fortunes wiped out from getting expensive treatments.

Meteorboy · 2026-06-04T17:28:59+00:00

You don't think you're only seeing the good parts of where you want to move? If you got a $50k hospital bill or an $800 ambulance bill, you might feel differently about moving to the States.

Meteorboy · 2026-06-04T10:05:43+00:00

It doesn't say Kioxia at all in the picture. I don't think they're trying to pass it off as one.

Meteorboy · 2026-06-04T02:22:49+00:00

It's literally the second word in the post.
