Playstation Tablet 1,725 Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 FFXIV costs 15 bucks a month and has 4 million active users paying those 15 bucks for years. Just a refrence point in comparison. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 So it was practically give away for free and it didn't even outdo Halo 4. Is this supposed to be impressive? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Lemmings are now to the point of celebrating bargain prices AT LAUNCH..... that's how low the bar is for them Little Goobs still doesn't understand what im talking about. No surprise there. You are a DUMBO Bargain Prices? MS wants GP subscribers. That's what they are trying to do, and it has seemed to work pretty well for them with this game. Where are you going to try and take this now? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Yes... to be able to play a $60 game at launch for FREE or $2 is a huge bargin..... are you denying this? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JonDnD 2,618 Posted September 16, 2019 Author Share Posted September 16, 2019 It's funny when a retard calls other people slow . Lmao Actually no , I'm not arguing that. That's exactly what I have said. When I wonder where you were going to take this I didn't think you would just agree with me and then try to argue with me about something I agree w , but you are a dumbo lmao.

Remij 4,672 Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 That's great. There's no way this wasn't a success for them. The game accomplished what they wanted it to. People are on board with using Gamepass as a rental service and that's what this was all about. They are throwing the rest of the current gen to the wolves to push Gamepass (which was obvious) and bring people around to the idea of an always online connected console + service for a low monthly fee. The fact that they were promoting and advertising how people could spend $2 and get Ultimate and allowing people to use the promotion and extend their subscriptions for years... It just shows that they aren't worried about money.. they're pushing the service. I really have no idea how they are going to make it work because I wasn't expecting every first party game to release day and date on the service.. but you'd think that they have some plan lol.

The Mother Fucker 26 Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 Xbox Game Pass needs more games if they want me to stay around, I thought they would have Metro Exodus, Borderlands 3, Control, Wolfenstein Youngblood, etc. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

-GD-X★ 7,733 Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 $2 for 2 months makes this a no-brainer. heck, i even tried it. i would have never spend $60 on this, though, especially after getting burned on the gears 4 hype. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Gears 5 was the catalyst to garner attention, and it's working. With all the new developers they have the goal is to get things to a point where game releases will be so frequent that people will not unsubscribe. They'll fill out the year with AA games inside the gaps of AAA games. It's a good plan. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

My assumption is they're kind of pulling a Sony, it seems like they both are. Not doing anything else really this gen and saving everything for next. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

kaz 2,439 Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 serious question: why are lemmings even allowed anymore? I know, for the comedic aspect but they still talk in a serious tone as if anything they say still matters. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
102020393023445948594 2,223 Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 who would have thought this game would score worse and sell worse than Gears Judgement, the most reviled entry in the franchise. This is truly a worst game ever candidate, 23k, 7.0, and lays a beloved franchise to an eternal rest. This is the flop of the gen, by far. Crazy to think both God Of War Ascension and Gears Judgment were in the same position... look at how sony turned around god of war vs how microsoft sank Gears to the grave.

102020393023445948594 2,223 Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 no wonder gears 5 ends like it does. I guess they knew already the franchise was dead and the story arc they set in motion with gears 4 was a colossal failure. expect kait and the cabbage patch kid SJW squad to be retconned entirely.
