Probably the wildest thing I’ve seen recently lol.
“If the game is not exclusive cancel it, fire everyone and kill the studio”
Xbox fanatics would rather see the game industry crash and burn if they can’t brag about Xbox exclusives.
If GTA6 can’t move the needle, nothing can.
Phil Spencer knew this when he said even if Starfield was a 11/10 game, it wouldn’t make a difference.
REPORT: GTA 6 has had almost no impact on Xbox sales in comparison to PS5.
“The thing is, though, when you look at PlayStation 5 compared to Xbox Series — Grand Theft Auto VI is coming out on both platforms, whether people know it or not — the Xbox Series numbers were bad. It was the lowest September ever for Xbox, 27% below last year in units. So there was no impact of the GTA VI reveal on Xbox, or no noticeable positive impact, at least” says Mat Piscatella from Circana, speaking to @GamesBeat.

Wow, Phantom Blade Zero reviews dropped, and so far it's at 88 on Metacritic and 91 on OpenCritic! 🔥🤯
Looks like a top GOTY contender has appeared! #PhantomBladeZero #PS5
Helen after being told they need to make Xbox profitable by making a $500 million dollar game exclusive to Xbox, for it to only sell 250k copies, and then double down on more exclusives while no one cares about your console.
Xbox’s first chief operating officer is out after just a few months. Xbox CEO Asha Sharma revealed Helen Chiang is departing today in a short internal memo. Details 👇 theverge.com/news/1018037/xb…
Rolled credits on The Witcher 3.
Originally I never liked the game, the combat was terrible imo.
Gave it another shot and really enjoyed it this time, story was good, quests were fun. The game had a lot of bugs, but nothing game breaking.
9/10
Take the L with some dignity, it’s better if you just don’t tweet anything.
Astro Bot has sold 4.7M copies, generating $291M (@alineaanalytics estimates).
Around 46.6% of Astro Bot’s copies sold have been physical, which is far higher than the typical game. This is due to it being a family-friendly game (physical gifting) and being big with us old-ass collectors who love the nostalgia.
Astro is another one of those games that continues selling over time, regularly selling more than 100K a month. It’s sold around 1M more copies this year ($60M in revenue) and is a popular title with families. We can see this using the Alinea platform’s MAU crossover tool:
- Astro Bot’s top #2, #3, and #4 games by crossover in any given month this year are Minecraft, Fortnite, and Roblox – without fail.
- The #1 title every month, though, is Astro’s Playroom, a pack-in with all PS5 consoles.
- For every month this year, between 20% and 30% of Astro Bot players also played Astro’s Playroom that month.
So the free pack-in is a noice funnel for converting players to a full paid product. The question now, though: Where does Astro go from here? I could do with another rad 3D platformer...
The narrative that is being made around Gears because the gaming media and PlayStation fans are salty that it was pulled from PlayStation is crazy.
Now every other week it’s here is the development cost and here are the sales it has to come to PlayStation.
When PlayStation first party game Concord was rumored to cost $400 million and disappointed in sales did the gaming media push for it to coming to Xbox?? Saros??
