I thought Inkquest looked interesting..... Well, I still wonder what their new ip is that they are actually working on but i guess seeing dead games will work as well.....or really piss me off they got canceled.....one of the two lol




       

I'm starting to think the comatose marketing campaign is the new CEO's doing not so much Phil Spencer. I invite you guys to look at his previous statements shortly after taking the helm from Ballmer. Words such as "newer leaner Microsoft" comes to mind, implied then he would be running a tight ship i.e. no more $500 million dollar ad marketing campaigns.

Just a thought......

It looks like much work was done for an axed project.

Certainly goes against them buying numerous companies this year. I think they'll cut the fat where it's not important/uneccessary. Not marketing though.

True however ad campaigns by nature are fatty no? Also as most had speculated when the Mojang acquisition made the headlines, Microsoft probably did their valuations.

This is all speculation anyway.

Oh, just saw the no marketing India article. Outside of US/UK I don't know what MS are laying at, you have to wonder if they even care at this point. They're certainly not fighting hard IMO.

Not exactly cost effective but they want to beat PS4 (or at least try) and are willing to splash the cash (clearly are) they need to

A) Buy Take Two
B) $100 advantage over PS4.
C) New marketing campaigne in UK/US to start a fresh
D) Market in every other country during their holidays

This would cost $5bn+! Now way are they gonna ever spend that much money on Xbox. The only thing they will probably do from your list is the new marketing campaign and a price cut to $349 next year.

Goes to show how overpriced EA's DLC is that it is still expensive to get the Mass Effect deals even after 4 years (ME2).
