Ya for some reason people seem to look down their nose at MS funding developers they don't own. What exactly is so terrible about that? What's so bad about funding the ideas of outside developers who are in need of such for a particular project? Isn't that really MORE commendable than just looking after your own studios? If outside developers see this and know they can have a great potential partner in MS if they have a big ambitious project that needs help and they've not found the right conditions elsewhere?

I swear MS never gets any credit from some people. They're just evil -_-

Plus it costs more money in the long term buying out a studio. That's even more wages you would have to pay to employees, and it may not be worth the financial risk. To me it makes more sense to pay a respected 3rd party dev to create a game for your platform, and see how it goes from there. If it sells well, then you have them create another. 

Maybe this is the reason MS hasn't bought Remedy...

No info today. More Sunset info regarding how good a publisher MS was to them in terms of freedom with the IP, some indie stuff, and Community got canceled... Nothing else.

Saying 3rd party exclusive is bad, unfair, sketchy etc is super moronic and shows the lack of grasp in economy and business logic of some people or just extreme fanboyism... I hope those people don't buy any product from a company that doesn't do vertical integration..... So no cell phones outside of Samsung... If even Samsung is acceptable... No movies not written, directed produced and distributed by the same holding group... Well when you come to think about it beside Heinz ketchup there isn't much they could buy keeping a coherent argumentation.... So yeah moronic trolls period...

I could bring my dog over to your house. 

And that's it. But would that be enough I wonder?

  • UK Artist doing some marketing for Sunset this year
  • Lots of Sunset Overdrive community content leading up until E3
  • Project Spark gets 1m players
  • Community cancelled
  • Part why Sunset is exclusive is because of MS resources, good things, MS very energetic and excited to work with them and other publishers refusing unless they get IP ownership and MS completely believes in them and the game
  • Sunset plays faster than what it looks like in the video
  • Players will be able to vote in what they want in Sunset Overdrive after launch and what they don't want by casting their votes, more details soon
  • E3 Talk next week from Major Nelson
  • No collectors edition of Sunset
  • Possible give away that it's coming in September?

 

See? This is how it's done!

Thanks a lot; I'll allow you to badmouth LO once freely without fear of permaban. Consider it a gift.
