If you try to buy Call of Duty in the Store you get a very peculiar message that says: "You receive this item for free with your gaming subscription. Continue to check out and use it forever!" Coincidence that coincidentally only happens with the Cod? Or are Xbox and Activision already preparing everything...?

I get the feeling most of Activision-Blizzard's library is going to drop on Gamepass very quickly after the acquisition closes, with the main exception being last year's CoD, which is most likely under a 1 year no competitor service clause still, like we know Sony makes their marketing deal partners sign. If it is a 1 year thingz last year's CoD should be on there by November though. Then this year's CoD will take a year to hit the service.

So many promising games in development at Xbox and XGS publishing. Cant wait for when they start to get the ball rolling on these big releases. Starfield and soon Forza is a good reset since the drought after Halo Infinite and FH5.

Yeah why not prepare internally? If the deal didnt go through they just dont make it public on game pass. It looks like it will happen so makes sense to get the ball rolling now to make that big splash when they dump all those games on the service once the acquisition is final.

How many people do you think will join Game Pass just because of the ABK Deal? Hard to say for certain, but I think 10 million is possible.

Kamiya is leaving Platinum on October 12. Joining XGS to revive Scalebound?

Idk...Depends over what timeframe, we'll see a boost when the first batch hit but I don't think the biggest boost will happen until Call of Duty launches day one into Game Pass and when marketing rights revert back to Microsoft.

He'll join NetEase like every other recent Japanese senior employee that have left their companies recently

Has anyone actually found any decent Epic or Legendary items in Starfield yet? Every time I see one I get exited thinking it might be something good then check them out and they are worse than the garbage I mass loot from enemies I just stick the the generic white gear.

^^Yeah I don't remember getting much great gun loot. Like Shika mentioned, it sucks you can't upgrade the base stats. Some were super fun to use, but not very great.

They added my boi @Ryuu96 in Danganronpa!
