Thank you Mikami-san @shinji_mikami for your leadership and your great contributions to the industry. Your guidance and input over the last 2 years has been valuable to me. Looking forward to our continued friendship and looking forward to what lies ahead for @tango_jpn https://t.co/RFP6HRUpj8

I think you will get your wish. There are two more big 3rd party Sony hats that have been rumored for years, Metal Gear Solid and Bioshock 4. Rumor is one of the two will be on this State of Play.

Strong doubt that Sony has BioShock 4.

Moneyhats are extremely rare from Take-Two.

I'm expecting all of the MGS remasters to be exclusive though, Lol.

B4 would be a major piss take too, I think would amount to their biggest money hat thus far.

They are losing COD marketing most likely. That money going to go somewhere.

China Expected to Approve Microsoft/Activision Blizzard Merger, According to Local Lawyers | Equity Report

We had reports early last year that China was waiting to coordinate with EC.

If those are accurate then I'd say China's approval bodes well for Europe approval.

At least that's 1/4 down once China approves, Lol.

My understanding is that Mikami was always hesitant to leave Tango because he thought the studio would get shut down without him as a buffer. I guess now he’s more confident in it within the larger Microsoft portfolio. https://t.co/nlUHQxxXrg

Arkane have announced DEATHLOOP has passed 5 Million Players since launch pic.twitter.com/ziGHzElsnx

Neither bad nor amazing, just kind of so-so. Obviously this is players, not sales, so this includes players from PS+ mid tier, Gamepass, and rentals, as well as people playing the same bought copy on more than 1 account within the same household, but here is how this compares with the sales of Arkane's previous games:

Dishonored 1- About 7-8m lifetime
Dishonored 2- About 5-6m lifetime
Prey- About 5-6m lifetime (noteworthy that full priced sales were down considerably compared to Dishonored 2, 60% lower first week in the UK at least, so while it's lifetime about matched Dishonored 2, more of it's sales were discounted)
Arx Fatalis- Somewhere between 750k-1.5m I believe
Dark Messiah of Might and Magic- Somewhere between 1-2m I believe

Man I love her, she is so savage while also being so calm, one heck of a combination.

1) The headline is mistaken. If you’d reached out, using standard journalistic practice, I could’ve helped you avoid the error. And you don’t know my “hopes.”

1b) Disappointment and criticism may have been your response but nothing supports that it’s “the most common response.” pic.twitter.com/Ym2iZEkfEc

4) This is not my work account. That’s why my bio says “personal.” Most of my work is stuff you never see; again, I would’ve explained if you’d asked.

5) FYI there are some typos / grammatical errors throughout the article. Not a big deal, but happy to flag them if helpful. pic.twitter.com/Yf4k2Ycbxt

Given SVG’s commitment to objectivity, accuracy, and corrections, I hope you will make and disclose these changes.

Your commentary is your prerogative (albeit better if “clearly identified as opinion”), but the factual errors should be fixed.

Thanks for your consideration. pic.twitter.com/hxHnEgNp2e

Gaming media clutching their pearls, while probably lol'in at How to share used games.

Hope this deal goes through...
