Not sure if it's been posted... But there was a Master Chief Hologram in the Sydney Harbor a few days ago.
Impressive stuff... Even if I don't agree with the face reveal and nude scenes in the TV show.

“Fuck those console peasants! Long live the PC master race!” 

For real though, I wonder if Blizzard views it as a type of Pandora’s box where if they port WoW, they’ll also get forced into porting other PC only games like StarCraft, Heroes of the Storm, Hearthstone, and Warcraft III Reforged (which they would need to completely fix this game on PC first before that happens.

As long as Blizzard stays as a PC first developer then porting their games to console, they should just see more dollar signs while not compromising their overall PC first community. 

Who yall got for whomever is buying Ubisoft?

Could be Sony, would be a big get. Fits their vision for GAAS, MS too much scrutiny. Amazon is a choice if they serious about gaming, TEncent... gross.

If Sony does buy Ubisoft and makes all their games exclusive (which will likely happen in that scenario) then that gives MS the full green light to do the same with ActiBlizz especially with CoD. I don’t believe that it will be Sony tough.

I’ve said this before but this purchase would be Amazons to lose, if they don’t then they should just get out of gaming all together because this would be their only chance to actually be taken seriously in the gaming space and compete with Tencent and Embracer let alone MS. 

Whoever ends up with them won’t likely change their GaS ambitions though, Ubisoft is still headed towards a dark path with their current strategy.

Ubisoft getting bought by someone or other is really inevitable. The writing has been on the wall for years, the way they're (mis)managing their franchises, combined with the rising cost of development, and the vast amount of internal conflict they've created due to their terrible workplace culture. They can't sustain their operation like this. Frankly, I think it would make a lot of sense for Sony to potentially take them over, because Ubi has a lot of cross media ambitions for their major franchises, and Sony obviously would be well equipped to facilitate and take advantage of those IP in that realm. Ubisoft wants to create more live service titles in the future, Sony has been very adamant about pushing for this direction as well. MS, even if they still allow most of the Activision/Blizzard IP onto PS (and that's a big if imo), as of now is positioned to be able to offer VASTLY more high profile content into their subscription service, and Sony adding Ubisoft would allow them to somewhat counter that, bolstering their own subscription service with the likes of AC, and Far Cry, which are still very popular with consumers. And let's face it, Ubisoft is pretty fucking cheap right now. You can get a whole lot for relatively little. Much like ABK, you'd have some work cut out for you in terms of righting the ship to a certain degree, but it's still absolutely worth it if you have the stable culture within your own company to take that on.

Frankly, I'll be very surprised if Sony doesn't kick the tires on this.

Starfield MMORPG reportedly in the works at Zos

https://www.gamingbible.co.uk/news/multiplayer-starfield-prequel-reportedly-in-works-at-bethesda-20220424.amp.html

so Starfield will be the third pillar, ESO, Fallout 76, and Starfield MMO

If this turns out to be true, it really drives home that Zos should’ve been the one to make the Fallout MMO rather than BGS. But it shows that Elder Scrolls and could be Starfield are BGS’s baby whereas Fallout is the adopted child lol

Voted the only real option cheevos, now end this damn poll.

Mafia 3 pretty mid. Thought I would like it more than 2 due to it being more modern with controls. Missions after the first few are just boring. Side missions are pretty bad as well. Missed being part of a family like in one or two. Everyone takes themselves too seriously. Missing 2016 features in open world games like fast travel.

1 > 2 > 3

Little let down overall by the trilogy. 1 was by far the best one.
