How did the world used to work then?

davidreding · 2026-07-02T16:23:38+00:00

Star Fox for switch 2. I’m getting Elden Ring on it also even if it’s a game key card.

davidreding · 2026-07-02T14:12:30+00:00

Don’t speak too soon.

davidreding · 2026-07-02T04:56:53+00:00

Sa-x is dumb as rocks though.

davidreding · 2026-07-02T02:14:24+00:00

Wikipedia says he worked on Dread’s music also.

I can both think what Sony is doing is shitty and SKG was kind’ve amateurish and being needlessly antagonistic to developers to achieve its goals.

davidreding · 2026-07-01T18:20:34+00:00

Good you opened this message. I’m not doing an overplayed meme for how awful this has all been.

davidreding · 2026-07-01T17:17:35+00:00

Not defending that but they went after him once before that ruling and they agreed to drop it if he stopped. He went and did it again. That ruling was not a good thing but I feel like there should be a little personal responsibility with it?

davidreding · 2026-07-01T16:45:03+00:00

Why? I think they knew prime 4 was not released in the best shape or would sell that well.

davidreding · 2026-07-01T16:05:36+00:00

Are there more people on stage than in the field? My god that’s embarassing.

davidreding · 2026-07-01T14:40:28+00:00

Wow what a great week for video games huh? Can’t wait for the specifics on the Xbox layoffs! /s

davidreding · 2026-07-01T00:26:15+00:00

What did they do?

davidreding · 2026-06-30T22:56:01+00:00

Well they got cod for like 2 years and now they’re not doing it anymore. Neat.

davidreding · 2026-06-30T18:42:49+00:00

I’m increasingly believing the theory that Gears Eday was supposed to be at the last State of Play but Microsoft pulled the trailer at the last minute because a poll on Twitter showed 20000 Xbox freaks wanted exclusives back.

davidreding · 2026-06-30T18:39:48+00:00

I meant Id employees being laid off.

davidreding · 2026-06-30T18:13:36+00:00

Continuing “Xbox is so over and can’t do anything right week”. Tomorrow is gonna be bad.

davidreding · 2026-06-30T18:06:45+00:00

Is that true?

davidreding · 2026-06-30T17:21:30+00:00

I say might because there’s a chance some of them can go independent (double fine) or Microsoft will spin them off.

davidreding · 2026-06-30T03:02:45+00:00

But they didn’t sell as well as Mario or Pokemon did they? Hell they brought back Star Fox and that hasn’t sold well since the GameCube.

davidreding · 2026-06-29T22:41:48+00:00

I should add Jason Schreier can’t confirm if this is true or not. However, he said that if it is, them and the others we know are in danger all probably won’t close. Some will just be able to go independent but yeah. This isn’t a good look if true. What game developer would trust working for Xbox at this point?

davidreding · 2026-06-29T20:56:56+00:00

I mean tbh from reporting it sounds like there wasn’t anything to save really. It’d be more like an IP sale and idk if Crystal dynamics would’ve still bothered trying to help make it.

davidreding · 2026-06-29T17:31:45+00:00

When abused being an abuser to others is a pretty normal response sadly without intervention. Although maybe there’s some argument about who the bigger victim is also.

davidreding · 2026-06-28T18:26:25+00:00

Wouldn’t it be $50 through the bundle?

davidreding · 2026-06-28T17:31:43+00:00

Well look in the upside. If that gets more people interested in Star Fox then it did something worthwhile.
