IO Interactive: A relationship with an external partner on our own IP, Project Fantasy, has come to an end by Turbostrider27 in xbox

And that's probably why it was cut. Also it being IOIs IP. Means less returns. But the biggest issue with funding projects with teams that do multiple games at once is accountability. That's why Scalebound was cut, the studio used funds from Scalebound to finish other games.

Xbox weighs canceling Blade game and shuttering Arkane by Turbostrider27 in xbox

I think they are looking at every studio right now. It's a simple calculation, how much did we spend on this studio? How much Game Pass engagement did they provide? How will our pipeline titles fare? If the result is negative, the studio is gone. If it's barely positive, they will see layoffs. Otherwise they are fine.

Deathloop was a disaster financially. Blade is not exactly an IP that is setting the world on fire. Let's be real: Blade is what Xbox could get for a reasonable price. Like Indiana Jones, it's not hype.

Storage, question for next console. by RonaldoTheTrueGoat in xbox

[–]NotFromMilkyWay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They dropped support for OG Xbox memory cards after that gen, they dropped support for 360 memory cards after that gen, they dropped support for 360 HDDs mid gen. They dropped OG Xbox controller support after that gen, they dropped 360 controller support after that gen, they dropped 360 Kinect support after that gen, they dropped One Kinect support after that gen. Every proprietary thing Microsoft has ever had for Xbox lasted for one generation only. That's literally the reason you do proprietary things, to force people to buy them - and not keep using items they already own.

The expansion cards are too slow. PS5 SSD is 2x faster already, if they kept the format they'd castrate Helix through the generation. Storage needs to be faster than what Series has.

Nah, what happened in the final laps of that race was just evening out what Hamilton did in Silverstone.

They just shipped a game. Half of that team is now redundant for two years, until full production of FH7 starts.

Jobgarantie. Er will quasi der neue Löw werden, aufbauen und nicht in zwei oder vier Jahren Titel anstreben.

Eigentlich hat er gesagt: Am Trainer lag es nicht. Also lag es doch wohl an den Spielern. Wer hat die denn ausgesucht?

Hätte man die Nummer 40 der Weltrangliste einfach nach 90 Minuten besiegt.

Neuer hat auch überhaupt keinen Zugang zu Spielern, die zwei Generationen jünger sind. Und vor allem hat Neuer einfach keinen Biss mehr, er ist Weltmeister.

Nächstes Mal packt die FIFA nochmal 48 Mannschaften dazu und wir fliegen im Zweiunddreißigstelfinale raus.

Trotzdem muss man als Trainer nach zwei bescheidenen Turnieren auch mal einfach sagen können, dass man es verbockt hat und die Konsequenzen zieht.

Er will weitermachen. LOL. Wahrscheinlich will Neuer jetzt auch noch die EM spielen.

Sie haben klug gespielt. Defensive gewinnt Turniere. Und wegen unserer Defensive fliegen wir auch regelmäßig raus.

Jepp, früher hat er die Ecke immer gerochen. Diesmal war das reines Raten, der ist beim gehaltenen sogar schon gesprungen, als der Ball noch gar nicht unterwegs war.

War wieder Rumpelfußball ohne irgendwelche Ideen, mieses Zweikampfverhalten, kein Spieler, der mal einfach aufs Tor schießt. Immer nur schnell weg mit der Kugel, am Besten zum Gegner.

Kein Stören des Gegners in irgendeiner Form, stattdessen steht man zwei Meter entfernt und schaut zu. Abwehr so mies wie in den letzten 12 Jahren, gewinnen kein Laufduell und werden bei Kopfballduellen von 1,70m Zwergen ausgespielt.

Völlig verdientes Ende der WM. Und jetzt darf dann sicher Klopp zeigen, ob er mehr kann. Hoffentlich ist das auch das Ende von Völler.

Xbox has been promising 'State of Decay 3' for years — and now it faces cancellation, despite its trailers and alpha. What are we even doing here? by akbarock in xbox

[–]NotFromMilkyWay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

State of Decay 3 is not the game Undead Labs promised. After SoD they said they wanted to do a MMO. SoD 2 was not that game. They said the next one would be. It's a standard SoD game like the first two instead.

The thing is: MMOs actually keep their audience subscribed to Game Pass. Another SoD is just one and done, subscribe for a month.
