Another kemco partner studio going XS optimized.. only one left.
| Ryuu96 said: Reading that Kojima is apparently a big Cloud advocate, was also planning on making an exclusive for Stadia (episodic horror series) but Google cancelled it, makes me believe that he would have no issue signing with Microsoft, probably the only reason he chose Stadia over xCloud was because Stadia was first. Now I'm not particularly a Kojima fan but I say Microsoft should sign him up, episodic horror would be good for Game Pass, would be good for restricting a Kojima budget too (although Microsoft lately seems to be throwing the cash around everywhere), just tell him no movie/tv stars which will inflate the budget Which is why they should also pick up Yu Suzuki as well, again, I don't care about Shenmue Tbh but reading that he also planned an exclusive with Stadia, Microsoft should just fund the rest of the Shenmue series, I know they'll likely flop but hard sales are less important now with Game Pass and again, it increases their reputation in Japan to have these relationships. |
The Kojima Mascot on his shelf right next to the Xbox logo might actually have some significance, why would Phil go out of his way to purchase that figure when he would have zero relationship with them.
Its possible that Phil met Kojima and struck some sort of exclusivity deal after the Stadia game got cancelled and Kojima Productions gave it to him as a gift.
Not going to say that MS is buying them but if they form a good relationship then it could be a possibility down the line if Phil can promise Kojima full creativity and AAA budgets, If would be a massive slap in the face for Sony after the Japan Studio thing and would make some waves in Japan.
I want this Halo show to be good, but it's hard to be even remotely optimistic when it's been in development hell as long as it has been.
Anyone try out the Outriders and Balan Wonderland demos? Man I really think that Square Enix has two bombs on their hands.

I tried Outriders a few months ago when it was apart of the preview program. It sucked from what I played.

100% agreed Shika, this game will likely score below 70 which is a shame because I am a fan of People can Fly.
It’s crazy that a proper AAA team like People can Fly and a big publisher like Square Enix can even create a game that is on par in Quality with something like Remnant from Ashes by Gunfire Games who is tiny in comparison.

I think it's become quite obvious that Square Enix just can't properly manage their Western studios at all. Not surprising at all that Outriders is likely to flop considering Square Enix didn't have a successful Western game the entire last generation.

I would rather that MS only releases news in blogs and twitter for a whole year than watch another Inside Xbox ever again.

But my main interest in getting Kojima personally is it would help improve Japan relations, he is widely respected, if Xbox forms a good partnership with Kojima and all goes well it could benefit word of mouth across other Japanese developers.
