Well, I just didn't get why you seemed to complain about so much, said that you want Japanese games and so on...That's why I told you to buy a PS4 instead, so that you can be more happy about your situation and so that you don't pull down the mood in this thread. I mean, it's not as if I'm the only one who told you something similar.

Since you said that you don't care about much releasing on PS4 I didn't tell that to you anymore. I stopped with it since you explained it properly, before that all I got from you was "I like Japanese games, I own an Xbox and complain about the lack of Japanese games pretty much every day even if there are other consoles which do obviously get more of them". 

Now I know that you also don't care about many Japanese games and only some special ones and that you want to get exactly these you have in mind to be happy about "the Japanese support" and also to get higher XBO sales to increase Japanese support even if that would be once agains a point where I think that it would be easier to own a PS4 which will get all these games which XBO could get with a higher user base in Japan. 

I also didn't say B.C. would be bad, I said it would be at least decent if they wouldn't fuck it up and with that it would be a great experience for many since even "bad" games are fun for people if they play them with friends. With bad I obviously don't mean games almost not playable But if indie teams can release these games and generate millions of sales even with so many flaws it tells me that games like B.C. made with a little bit more money could be a huge thing for many players. 

 And it's not my fault that you never see people talking about these kind of games, just because as example on VGC aren't these discussions doesn't mean much. You just have to look at the success of these games on Steam to see how many people like this stuff. There is just not much like that on consoles, it's not a suprise that people don't talk about it then except for the "I want a B.C." you see from time to time.  If a game like Reign of Kings which is clealry not perfect sells better as Ori on Steam (both same price but Ori is considered as almost flawless) you can't deny that there is interest in these games.

And I know what you can and can't do in Gears, Gears is awesome but it's just not this kind of game where you go on a server to play in a world for hours. Where you invest 10 minutes just to get some wood and stuff...

Since day 1 I was really specific on how I felt about ps4 line up, ask shika I believe he read those posts. I only want the games that do well in the west like persona/tales. The real jp niche is meh all around.

As previous said(not by me) I don't see anyone hyping wild, I don't sense that beloved genre you are talking about honestly.

Having a fan base on PC doesn't mean it will have on consoles, look at CS, I love CS.. Played it for years and is still on the top 3 (steam). On consoles it flopped.

I play gears for 8 hours straight on the world of matchmaking.

State of Decay, DayZ, Terraria, and Fortnite are all examples of these type of games.  Then you can also out Destiny, GTA, and other open world games that have coop abilities in them in a similar context.

What all these games do is not necessarily just about building with resources, but rather playing a game how you want it to be played with your friends.  By sometimes creating your own fun, maybe farming, or maybe building.  Every player is different, but right now there is a huge market for these style of games if done correct

I said destiny but it wasn't what he was talking about(see his response, he was being specific about hunting animals and stuff), but there you go, Xbox also got all of those minus fortnite.. There's more than enough.

You realize that you don't play together in State of Decay? and that Terraria is a 2d game? Where is the Rust, DayZ, Fortnite, Reign of Kings or similar stuff on Xbox? Exactly, it's just not there. A game like Rust with a 10x bigger budget (which would be still less as a "normal" game) would be just huge on PC and Xbox.  

Those weren't my examples, I didn't even play them in my life.

DayZ is confirmed for XboxOne tho!

I play gears for 8 hours straight on the world of matchmaking.

One year ago Rust generated more revenue as Garry's Mod. Garry'S Mod generated over 30m at that point. So, Rust is probably already over 50m now, if you don't see that this is big stuff people want I just can't help myself. That was at a time where Rust was still pretty mehh and it still got so many people interested in it. 

CS is a really bad example to be honest. I am a console and PC gamer and I love CS and I would never touch it on console. This game is made with very fast and accurate aim in mind. Using auto-aim in it is just wrong  and a controller isn't good enough to play this game without auto-aim. I mean common, just look at CS, it doesn't make much sense on consoles where every millimeter counts. CoD, yes, but not CS where it's not only important where you aim when you start to shoot but also what you do while shooting. It's highly complicated to master it (even on PC you need hundreds of hours to understand all the weapons correctly)  and it's either not possible on consoles or it has to get tweaked so that it's not the CS people love anymore. 

And you can play Gears like you want, it doesn't change that Gears has nothing in common with the other games, otherwise you wouldn't love Gears but find the other games and concpets (like for B.C.) boring...

so, I don't know if ^^ has been posted here or not, but a Microsoft exclusive 2k nfl game would be the absolute bomb.

it apparently has a summer release (could be one of those games microsoft said they have under wraps for the middle of the year).

I wonde if EA would be mad about this? Or if they wouldn't care as long as MS would still have also a deal with EA for Madden (if that would be still the case)

Boyos, getting Final Fantasy Type-0 HD?

Think it's coming in the mail tomorrow for me. Just want to play FF XV for now. Probably won't touch Type Zero until 2016. 


WTF are you playing that takes too damn long to finish?

Yeah, I was wondering that too, but I believe that the nfl-ea deal doesn't hinder on other publisher nfl games (2k nfl) so long as they're not multi-plat or something like that.

NFL 2k would be absolutely huge in the US if it happens. Many of you may not know, but nba live was the dominate nba game for about decade before the Nba 2k series.

EA would probably be upset though, but I don't know how things would change, being that Microsoft is the official sponsor of the nfl.
