Playstation Tablet 1,734 Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 (edited) Expected. The XBox division isn't getting a pass after this, they're obviously getting stopped of funding. Edited April 29, 2023 by Playstation Tablet 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
FIREPOWER 739 Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 Only a matter of time now before Phil gets fired and they shut down the console division. I don’t see any way forward for them now that this acquisition has been blocked. They put all their eggs into the ABK deal basket. Sales down 30% while PS5 is breaking records, their two biggest exclusives this year run at 30fps and basically all the multiplats run worse than the PS5. Xbox is a total disaster this gen. Just when lemshits thought the worst was behind them with XB1 this gen has become far worse than the XB1 generation Quote Link to post Share on other sites
lynux3 2,127 Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 (edited) Xbox's management is the dunning-kruger effect in progress. It's amazing these people still have jobs. Literally have not produced anything meaningful for 14 years. Edited April 29, 2023 by lynux3 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
sugarhigh 519 Posted April 30, 2023 Share Posted April 30, 2023 But the gaming press has been praising Phil Spencer nonstop for 10 years ever since he replaced Don Mattrick. He's a "real gamer"... he "gets it"... this kind of manipulative shit, but where are the games? This is still the same Xbox that cancelled Scalebound, except now they can barely make Halo. 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jehurey 3,278 Posted April 30, 2023 Share Posted April 30, 2023 Its kinda sucks that the Embracer Group bought out those studios from Square Enix. I think there's a very good chance that Sony passed on that because they didn't want to look bad while this whole regulatory review was going on. Its Square Enix selling the Tomb Raider IP, and Deus Ex, and Legacy of Kain, AND Eidos Montreal, which is genuinely one of the better dev studios this past decade. For $300 million dollars, that is an amazing steal of a price. You don't think Square-Enix wouldn't have let Sony be the first company they offer to sell it to? Returning Tomb Raider back to the Playstation, where it originally got popular? Instead, its in the hands of this relatively unknown investment group. WHo knows how much of a shit they'll give to have studios release new games of those IPs. I hope Embracer just holds onto those assets for a short while, and then offers to flip them for a decent profit. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TLHBO 2,162 Posted April 30, 2023 Share Posted April 30, 2023 I dont get how you could be a famboy of xbox its had literally nothing worthwhile since the end of the 360 era. Leings want to pretend Gamepass is the answer, but these same shills stuck with xbox even before Gamepass was a thing. When jonb was telling us crackdown 3 and scalebound would save the XBO. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I don't agree with that, I think the Eidos western teams would be great additions to PlayStation, especially for Hitman, Tomb Raider and Deus Ex.
