Big Gameinformer interview with Phil Spencer and Matt Booty
- Thread starter Theorry
- Start date
I'm not. They likely are in advanced talks with someone in Asia but haven't any reason to talk about it yet. They are likely making a game for Xbox Series X, not Xbox One. We have only just seen Hellblade 2 and only after they revealed the console.
once they're ready to do a blowout of what studios are working on next gen that's when we will see the announcement
I've never understood why people complain about Xbox Game Studios games being on PC. Isn't that better for.. everyone? More people who have access to games. Which then gives developers more opportunities to take risks.
Play Anywhere and Game Pass for PC have been a godsend. Exclusivity is not a pro-consumer thing. It's a necessity for platform holders. Microsoft just happens to have more platforms.

I think the only new info there is we'll see The Initiative's project in the next 12 months. Not too surprising, though.
I didn't read it that way.
Same reason people complain if something goes on sale a week after they bought it. I can see why some would be annoyed that they bout a box to play exclusive games then found out that they didn't actually need to. I don't really see all this hate for MS games being on PC though. I see more people being happy they don't have to purchase an extra box because of PC Game Pass and games coming to Steam. It's taken as console warring though.

My assumption is the most gamers will switch between PC and console. Being in both places with services that people like and can easily move between the two will be hugely beneficial to Microsoft.
It's kind of odd that you frame it as a negative that you don't need to buy an Xbox since you game on PC. Isn't that a positive?
If I were Phil, every time he rang I'd be like, "Sorry, gotta take this. Booty call".
You know what..you nailed it. Especially the "YOU'RE not adapting" line
I can play XGS and GamePass tiles on my monster PC rig at my desk, or on my couch with my One X (and Series X in the future)
How is that not fuckin cool and how do you NOT want that to be the future?
Yeah it's such a strange concern to have.
If you have a PC, play the games there if you want to, it doesn't matter, just enjoy the games.
If you have a Xbox, play the games there if you want to, it doesn't matter, just enjoy the games.
Somehow having games available on several platforms is a problem. I'll never understand that thinking. To me it's the Xbox ecosystem's best feature.
Yeah to me that's insane. It propelled me to get an Alienware pc and invest further in the exosystem (I already have 200 ish games bought outright on Xbox and access to more thru two years of membership of XGP)
it sucks that peoples value in a console is whether or not other people can play those games
all you're doing is trying to twist the logic around to justify your purchase when in reality... if it's exclusive all that changed is other people don't have a chance to play it. it changes nothing from the perspective of buying the system.
I want the market to grow... if it grows, there's more money being spent and more games being made.

Right? Like, idk.. Microsoft does the cool, consumer-friendly moves, things are looked at negatively.
Sony DOESN'T do those things, it's totally fine
You can't explain that
The way I see it is this. Let's say Capcom invests in a completely new IP. It is terrible. Everyone hates it when they buy it. But then it goes on game pass and people start talking about the game. The finer details. About what they like. About how they can improve. The IP, though new and hampered through a bad release, ends up not costing them millions upon millions. And, likely, it can grow through new installments. Less risk and less volatile. Access, not only through platforms but also through services, improves the industry
Im totally with this. I hope play anywhere expands to 3rd party titles tho doubtful . I game on Xbox and Pc and I love play anywhere, and having GP on both platforms.
Next gen I may just stick with console, im not sure, but having the option is great.
Game on both ? Awesome
Game on Xbox or Pc only? Awesome .
Take you games on the go on your phone? Awesome.
Works out great for everyone. IDK why people are against this. Well why would we buy an Xbox? You don't have to if you have a PC how is that a negative? People seem upset that they save 500 dollars lol I don't get it. Well i do....but I cant understand it.
Let me tell you my plastic box is better than your plastic box.
We could always go play a game of baseball instead worrying about xbox platform anymore.
good thing it doesnt need a subscription to work and you can still individually buy the games on game pass.
[/QUOTE]
Please, go then lol the initiative Microsoft is showing here with the platform extending outside of just the box and instead being wherever I'm at is great and shouldn't be looked at negatively
Are people really sad that exclusivity and console wars are dying out? Can Era please stop with the corporate stanning for one minute!?
Nobody cares what plastic computer you bought. Let other folks (PC and Mobile) join in on the fun.

Surprised we'll be getting to know more about Initiative's game next year. That studio is a cool wildcard I'm looking forward to that. It should be a dope year in terms of announcements for them. Playground's second team will probably reveal as well.
Arent you the one that had a meltdown on twitter over MLB going multiplat? 🤣🤣🤣
BUT WHAT ABOUT TOMORROW
Omg wait really?? Please tell me this is true (the tweet)
If they are this is just sadder. What kind of sad childhood did you live if you're nostalgic for console wars of all things?
Pretty sure he cried on livestream cause it turned multiplat 😂😂
I guess that 's the deal, though they could have spun out a more interesting article over speculating what that game might be. However, that wouldn't get the next-gen clicks.
Man, next time I feel like a failure I'm just gonna pull up this thread and tweet..
Thanks, I really needed that
Yep he legit cried. Also said some racist things about Europeans and people who buy Xbox's. Surprised to see him on here tbh
So many good tweets in there, keep up the good fight soldier!
Just warning you it's not easy to listen to.
