You should probably read the entire article, it’s available for free. The context of the part about trends was in regards to battle royale, not “good showing of SP games from Sony”, lol. I mean... the OP literally begins with him discussing how long SP games will always be around. That’s the opposite of a trend that changes every year.

I know this is MS and Chartz so most of the talk will be negative but is there really anything surprising here? Microsoft has always been more about MP games and they’ve always put less resources into SP than the competition. With GamePass, why would they not continue to put an emphasis on GaaS? It also doesn’t mean they aren’t making any more SP games. Personally I’m fine with there being strengths and weaknesses for each console. I wouldn’t want MS to try and emulate Nintendo and Sony because that’s not why I game most on Xbox platforms.

For all the talk about how amazing Nintendo and Sony SP games are and how MS has nothing... they just released SoD2, which I’ve already put more time into in single player than I’ve put into any SP game from the other two. MS knows their fan base, what is wrong with them focusing on that fan base? They can try things to appeal to a wider crowd but there’s nothing wrong with appealing to their fans.

LMAO!!  If that's what they really believe, boy.  A trend that has been going on since the late 70s will end in a year or so.  Weird how those single player games keep doing great.  With many of the current sequels having the largest sales of the franchise.

Holy crap, that's it.  Especially the Major Nelson part.  Was wondering why he looked familiar.  Is this guy Nelson's younger brother?

I wouldn't say they are happy.  You have MS spending less money and time on the console side of things, and seemingly trying to draw people back to PC with GAAS that will be on both.  Not sure if that's going to work for them, but it may.  I do think they are going to give it a pretty good try next gen, with XB2.  Though, it'll be interesting to see if they even have exclusives on it, instead choosing to release it on both XB2 and PC.

This just reminds me why I've ever hardly considered buying an Xbox product.

Dude we have the same talent that can read the similarities on people face LOL , you are right He  is indeed have  similar face with Geoff Kelley and Major Nelson LOL. That smug face from Major Nelson  combined with thin structure bone from kelley LOL. 

Even more live services!

Thanks, I tried to keep the theme going.

Because they're the best?

Explained it exactly how it is. Its one if the reasons i got into the Halo series, they offered some of the best campaigns around and some of the biggest multiplayer experiences at Esports and in peoples home. Hoping Halo 6 brings back those big level designs and a multiplayer that continues the games legacy for years.
MP to me is just as important as the SP.

Well if you use facts and numbers obviously only a minority thinks that way.
