Shadow of War is 35.99 regular edition on Xbox deals. Glad I waited because Barozi and Jason told me about some deals they saw. Thx guys.

Now I'm not sure which to get. There's also a 47.99 Silver edition. I think I'll just pick up the DLC later and pick up Wolfenstein 2 30.00 and the 35.99 version of Mordor now.

 

Trying not to spend too much. 60 is what I want to spend on games this season. No more than 70.

Slightly more evidence that Playground Game's New IP is Microsoft Exclusive, Multiplayer.IT are correct on the second studio's location (That was pretty much 50/50 though) and they are also correct on when they would start staffing up judging by when this Studio opens.

Coupled with the Microsoft job postings for an AAA Next Gen Title (Art style like Horizon Zero Dawn) based in UK and that same recruitment agency also being a client for Playground Games.

So if this game is the AAA Horizon like game that was revealed in the Job posting that means that MS has 2 AAA games in the works by 3rd party's that we know of (not counting the Japanese game). If this game by Playground is exclusive and is even moderately successful and Forza Horizon continues to grow then can see MS buying them outright.

I'm presuming this is their big stress test and final play session and shortly after it they will be announcing the release date for Sea of Thieves.

Wow lame month, you would think that they would go big to end the year.



Barozi on 22 November 2017

Great month for me!

Was thinking about getting Vermintide a couple of times.

Free trial to a 12 HR game a month after release tells me it's selling badly.

Also did anyone see GameStops Black Friday deal?
190$ 500gb xb1s
200$ 1tb PS4 with 50$ gift card.
Npd is a wrap with a deal like that. If ms was going to win they would have needed a better deal at the top 3-4 retailers.



Halo MCC will sell 5+ million copies(including digital)

halo 5 will sell 10 million copies(including digital)

x1 will pass ps4 in USA, and UK.

Slightly related but I discussed this in Discord about Microsoft announcing things, I wish instead of announcing games too early that they would instead just announce partnerships like they have done with Studio Gobo, that way we aren't actually seeing this awesome CGI trailer, we aren't waiting years for this great looking game and eventually disappointed at it possibly being cancelled, sure our expectations will still be high depending on certain studios but they will be lower than if we actually see a game and the wait will be easier, It also gives us reassurance that something is actually happening on the games side.

I have a feeling that MS will acquire Playground Games soon.

Out of all the studios that they can potentially purchase at this moment, this one makes the most sense and is a no-brainer for MS.
