Yeah, this is twice now that I said they should've bought a company and the company slips out of their hands. Good going amazon. What clever girls they are. I said MS should've bought BIoware. They could've had so many great potential IP's come out of their internal system from that point on. Double Helix is up and coming. So sad....so sad. I would say buy Remedy but then someone might buy Remedy after  I said that.

I think they didn't have gamers or someone that knows gamers in the board.

Acquisition of SEGA was on the table in early 2000 and they didn't go forward with it. I hope they don't commit the same mistake with Remedy because Ubisoft and 2k got a lot of money this last gen and I'm sure they'll make some acquisitions.

Mass Effect series would probably be like the 1rst one with a better game mechanics. A lot of space opera and open world with optimized shooting mechanic of ME2.


If Microsoft didn't know what was cool, they wouldn't have acquired exclusivity of said titles. They aren't really that good at making games. Their best asset is their eye for games they haven't made at all. Halo, Gears, Titanfall, Rare titles (and others) are a legacy which shows Microsofts strengths. Its self evident they are better at picking and choosing from other peoples product than their own.

Hum...You're basically saying they are useless ... They have to learn how to make their own exclusive games without buying them to be useful to gamers and to get a real and proper legacy.

This is why i agree with the man who said industry is better with sony domination, it will prevent microsoft to buy 3rd party games and force them to create their own games so it will bring more games and variety to the industry.



Predictions for end of 2014 HW sales:

 PS4: 17m   XB1: 10m    WiiU: 10m   Vita: 10m

 

Im happy with those DK numbers, should give Wii U a decent boost. I expect it to be over Xbox One globally next week, assuming we dont get any big adjustments.



When the herd loses its way, the shepard must kill the bull that leads them astray.

Well seriously, the only four games to have proper success from Microsoft for core gamers was Project Gotham, Forza & Fable with a possibility of Crackdown, but lets be real now that they have Gears they have no need for Crackdown.  Microsoft only cares about what profits more, not whether the game was actually good. They have a great eye for finding what can sell well with market demographics. The games Microsoft sees ahead of time and acquires are far greater in quality and overall value to their consumers. Sony sucks at scouting games and acquiring their exclusivity. They are better at working in tandem with companies and coming up with their own projects, much in the same vein as Nintendo, but with a greater eye for storyline detail and variety.



Microsoft acquired a bunch of studios recently, this cant be for nothing , if they wanted, they could create new strong ip ( too bad they didnt let black tusk create the new ip instead of geow)
