For the 9000 people that just got laid off that must read like a real kick in the teeth, knowing the company that just gave you the boot has never been so prosperous and profitable.
Nadella is being really insensitive to those people who he thanked and bigged up massively while ruining their livelihoods.
You may be winning Nadella but youāre also a loser.
@N1ghtW1ng yeah thatās one of the reasons I liked it, there were no Jediās in sight and it was refreshing just to play as a smuggler. Why they didnāt use Han Solo for the main role though Iāll never know seeing as heād fit perfectly.
Was cool though how they weaved main characters into the story though like jabba, darth vader etc and the world they created was by far the best in any Star Wars game Iāve played. Felt like the OG films many times.
Massive shame from my perspective as I actually really enjoyed outlaws. Ubisoft made changes to their usual open world formula and it seems not many liked it even though itās been moaned about for years lol.
Would have loved a sequel. Just hope it sells so well on switch 2 it makes them change their mind.
@Northern_munkey nice but please shield your friend @Kidfunkadelic83 from me. I unfortunately donāt have the time, money or space for one myself and donāt want to be tempted š
Yes we realise keeping them online may be expensive but what many are asking for is for an offline mode once the servers are shut off. Surely that wouldnāt be that expensive in most instances?

@somnambulance not sure but I did have to google Mandela effect š¤£
Re: Sony Job Listing Implies More PS5 Exclusives Will Be Ported to Xbox, Nintendo
I donāt really understand this as Sony are in a totally different position to Xbox in terms of install base.
They really wonāt reap the same benefits as Microsoft has as the sales potential is much lower. I guess helldivers will be an important litmus test.

@somnambulance your autocorrect is better than mine it changed my Nadella to Mandela š

@Lowdefal Ah well I was close enough with a quick mental calculation!
@SoulChimera Thank you for confirming š
Re: Sony Invests in Elden Ring Publisher Bandai Namco, Signs Strategic Partnership
@Oram77 yeah thatās what I thought. It would put a valuation on Namco Bandai at $18.5 billion!

Re: Sucker Punch Would 'Love' an inFAMOUS Trilogy on PS5
@Oram77 yeah bluepoint would be a great shout.

@Nepp67 same. Is criminal sly and jak have been deserted.
Re: Sucker Punch Would 'Love' an inFAMOUS Trilogy on PS5
Man Iād be so down for more infamous. If we canāt get a new game then this would do!
Re: Worried About AI in Game Development? It's Here, and It's Only Getting Worse
@djlard youāre correct but this is percentages.
If you have 1000 and add 100% itās 2000, add 200% is 3000 etc, so 700% increase is 8000.
Re: Worried About AI in Game Development? It's Here, and It's Only Getting Worse
1000 to 8000 is 700% just sayin!
