A good friend of mine who works for a developer in the UK has told me he's heard Bruce Straley is joining The Initiative - but I can't find anything online to match that. Has anything been discussed? He was at Naughty Dog for many years.

No chance I would say, he would be a studio head or have his own start up, he won't be going to work underneath someone.
It hasn't been discussed because there hasn't been any online chatter or rumour about the matter. You're the first to bring it up, with hearsay from the dev scene.
If true, it's not nice of Xbox to steal experienced developers like that.
They should grow their developers in tubes.

Interesting, ND is in the same area.
IDK maybe he's not fit for the high end management, most of the devs in TI are from a well defined region and background and he really fits those parameters
It will happen sometime after the DLC releases next year.
Fuck, I totally forgot about the Cuphead DLC announced at E3. That's going to be amazing.
Oh, great. How I could miss that? Great news.
Can I have a link/source for that please? :)
Thats was also an anomaly. MS had everything going to destroy the PS3 at the time.
However, they decided to bury themselves. Sony kept producing great first party games, and MS thought Kinect was the future.
Theres literelly like 45 Kinect games versus 3 AAA games released in 2011-2012 for the 360.
That was the reason why Xbox died towards the end. I barely turned it on at the end of its lifetime.
Added the source quote to my post.

Hi! I work on Cuphead.
There will be a physical version after the DLC is out and everything has settled down and we have a final-final-final version of everything as good as it can be. Whether it ends up being some special edition thingermaroo or just a spiffy case and a disk...well, we're still working out the kinks on that (physical goods are a whole different headache from making a game).
But there will be a physical release of Cuphead.

That's a great news! Thanks for your answer. I'll buy it for sure
Now I'm confused. It basically is one big longer Inside Xbox episode then? It kinda did sound like a stage show thing to me. Hmmm.
Imagine if along with Obsidian and whoever else, Microsoft started another studio like the Intiative with Bruce at the helm, what a kick to the balls that would to to Sony lol
https://www.xbox.com/en-US/X018
It's a two-day event with a special Inside Xbox episode (main announcements will be here) - and various more specific streams over the two days.
It remains to be seen if there will be a live audience at the Inside Xbox show - which essentially would make it a conference.
In Brazil some publishers aren't even releasing the disks here anymore (but they are bringing the Ps4 version)
I just don't know if that's a good thing or not, because the games they don't bring are a lot cheaper digitally because of a very favorable dollar conversion rate that Ms uses on their store.
Klobrille, you said that if this one turned out true you would have a better idea of what you were looking at. Hope this being real clarified some juicy deets.
I would be suprised if Ninja Theory only release a retail version for X1, but not for PS4. Well, one of the reason is that Hellblade was multiplatform before Ninja Theory purchase.
It's not true until it's confirmed.
But if it's true ... I might've found the Pandora's box and I'm not sure if I want to keep going on that path.
Playground. Obsidian I want making a Shadowrun game or a Halo RPG.
Looks like I was going on the right direction with those job listings. Wasn't entirely sure, but it's still nice to know.
Good job, Klobrille! Let's do it again!
Looks like breakdowns are already happening.

Playground. Definitely Playground. I want a British studio to make it.
Let Obsidian make a traditional WRPG/CRPG. Let Playground make a Fable game.
Xbox buying Gearbox and the Borderlands IP confirmed! :P
Playground Games! Let Obsidian make whatever the hell they want to make, in a perfect world it would be KotOR 3 or a New Gears Vegas :)
They really aren't messing around any more it'll be interesting to see what Obsidian can accomplish with full financial backing support from MS.
No please, Halo gets enough love from MS. We need a new AAA flagship series from Xbox
