@KyuubiNoKitsune cool. Bobby firing when?

KyuubiNoKitsune,

Apparently at the end of the year. Obviously going to get a good payout in the process…

@KyuubiNoKitsune as long as he's gone I'll take it

KyuubiNoKitsune,

Same tbh

Hdcase,

400 million payout as I understand it. And odds are very good he’s going to go to some other video game company. People like him don’t just disappear.

TheresNodiee,

I saw someone mention somewhere that Unity has an open CEO position…

Fuck AbK and Microsoft. Consolidation is bad for the consumer and pre Reagon this would have never gone thru

They showed Alex Mercer from Prototype in their announcement video

They knew

It’s a shame the UK’s Competitive Markets Authority let this merger go through after all. I can’t wait for the future, when 90% of the most popular games are made by 3 companies

Honestly this is bad for the gaming industry.

I understand a lot of game pass subscribers want more free stuff.

But just look at what Netflix had became after its success.

Or even just look at MS’s track record in using their monopolies to bully competitors.

Years later we will look at this and watch the tragedy unfold.

KyuubiNoKitsune,

Pretty sure most of the abk staff were just keen to get rid of Bobby. Maybe shortsighted but hey, MS isn’t the worst company to work for.

It would be funny if they renamed Toys for Bob to Toys for Phil.

KyuubiNoKitsune,

Lol

@NOT_RICK@lemmy.world avatar

This is the dead space remake, right?

Goronmon,

Yup its the remake.

CharlesReed,

The original Dead Space (along with the two sequels and Ignition) is already on Game Pass, so it'd have to be the remake.

Once again I’ve paid the game pass tax. I just bought dead space last week lol

I kinda wish they would announce upcoming games sooner or something. It makes it hard to determine if you should buy something or hold off indefinitely

buzziebee,

Unlucky :( I’ve had it on my wishlist but it was too much for me. Glad I’m going to get to play it. I never finished 3 so a full series playthrough might be in order. If you haven’t logged many hours on it you might be able to swing a refund? Though a week is a long time.

Crystal_Shards64,

I purchased a physical copy for once, so that’s a no go for me. However I did get it on sale so it’s not quite as bad as it could be.

I’ve found this happens at least once a year or so. So I’ve just come to accept it haha.

Looking forward to trying Head Bangers, fingers crossed it’s good!

Wartales was one that I’ve been sitting on the fence for as I was unsure if it was going to scratch that itch. Glad to see it’s getting added to Game Pass so I don’t have to wait for a discount on Steam.

Katana314, do games w Coming Soon to Game Pass: Like A Dragon Gaiden, Wild Hearts, Football Manager 2024, and More - Xbox Wire

I’ve got so many Like a Dragon games in my queue I don’t even know which to go for yet. I still didn’t finish Yakuza 6, bought Judgment 2, and now game pass has Isshin and MWEHN.

MurrayL,

If you don’t finish Y6 (or at least watch the cutscenes on YouTube or read a story summary) then the setup for MWEHN won’t make sense. Judgment and Ishin are standalone spin-offs so they can be played at any point.

I REALLY wanted to like rollerdome because of the concept but did the execution fell flat for anyone else?

Came here to ask about this game. Looking forward to the answers.

@Aielman15@lemmy.world avatar

Will this be the year they finally release something good?

simple,

Hey now, Hi-Fi Rush was excellent.

Aielman15,
@Aielman15@lemmy.world avatar

I feel bad for forgetting about that game, mostly because it’s not my cup of tea, but I totally agree with you, it was great.

Renacles,

Don’t forget AoE4!

After reading this article, I'm excited for this big update! A good excuse to get back to doing "just cult things" in my free time.
