@Rich33 The account is for Microsoft as a whole, if you used the same email you currently use, it is valid, the login period is for Microsoft in general. You can go 10 years without logging into Xbox, as long as you use your email.

@Rich33 If you have a Microsoft account (Windows) just use it, if you never used your Xbox account again and it is not the same, it was deleted, the maximum period is 2 years without a login.

Are people really complaining about this State of Play? It was the best in years, ok what makes me think this is Sonic Racing, Digimon and Directive 8020, and I understand that they are not for everyone, but they are games that i really want.

"Countries that do not support the Japanese giant's service" the correct is "countries that the Japanese giant does not support"

@Jayslow Toys For Bob is a Independent studio, have you forgotten that?

@Hi569 Of the 30 games that showed, 17 were First party, unless you want to argue that the acquisition invalidates this and the question is: what is the limit for this argument? ABK? Publishers? Or Avowed, South of Midnight also are "paid".

@Bez87 My god, every time I see someone talk about Xbox acquisitions the value gets higher, one more year and we will be at 1 trillion dollars, 68.7B for ABK, 7B for Bethesda. You can try to argue that 5 AA studios with financial problems and 2 studios that were already working exclusively for Xbox and owned no IP (Forza and State of Decay were Microsoft properties before the acquisition) completed the 100B but it's hard to get there.

@AllStarGamer The site has at least one thing that is not about Xbox.

What would Push Square be without Xbox? What news did they cover? Because clearly PS wouldn't be.

Even PS fans should watch the Xbox Showcase, after all, it was the only source of good games announced this year for PS5.

@K1LLEGAL u dont need to buy every Xbox game, and that's the reason why purchasing is cheaper than subscribing to XGP, not to mention that you now have access to content from both platforms.

@Fyz306903 But they are available on the console at least through Rare Replay, and with graphical improvements thanks to backwards compatibility. But to be honest, it's a reboot that changes the game's history and many fans are not happy with it.

@thefourfoldroot1 Of course, but you had to not use Windows with your account, or even log into your email, no One Drive. This is very difficult for me to be honest.

@thefourfoldroot1 You had to spend 2 years without using anything from Microsoft for this to happen, it would be horrible if it happened to me, but it is something extremely difficult to achieve.

@MrMagic In fact, the studio has already confirmed that the contract was changed as Microsoft has been financing development for years sincethe game suffered delays thanks to the war. According to the studio, it doesn't haver a limited time for the exclusivity, but I don't see Microsoft having exclusives, so... A year maybe?

I'd say The Quarry is the best example of the genre.

@KundaliniRising333 TBh not everyone was from ABK, remember, Xbox, Bethesda were also hit, reportedly including Xbox's entire physical media division.

@Splat If they win Microsoft should go after them, Rockstar was created after Rare.

@EvilSilentFrame Rare logo came first in fact.

@MidnightDragonDX Microsoft put their games Day 1 on Steam + Bethesda hás a Deal to release their games on Epic Store for a few Years.

@UltimateOtaku91 What you fail to understand is that Microsoft does not need to have a sales profit sharing contract, they can pay for the license and keep all the risk, and this is very common with IP licensing

@Pat_trick Microsoft should give the IP tô a big Studio and develop some big RPG instead of licensing to Paradox

@Sil_Am Who besides Forza would win best sports/racing game? And whoever did better than literally enabling blind players to play their games, Forza went to the extreme of accessibility, yes, the game was released unfinished, but these are aspects where he did well, the only ones, but they exist.

@ThaBEN What about Indiana Jones, thanks to the FTC we know that game is a Xbox exclusive.

@TheCollector316 If Microsoft trains its players not to buy games why would it want the game to sell well? Your logic is flawed.

@knowles2 And Wolverine? And How did Microsoft convinced Disney to change the Indiana Jones contract from multiplatform to exclusive? Maybe $$$$$

@MFTWrecks You know that Microsoft can pay you to have control over these aspects, right? Remember Sony doesn't have any rights to Wolverine, and Microsoft has already renegotiated Indiana Jones as an exclusive, a deal already made as a multiplatform before the acquisition, why would they accept to make a deal after the acquisition that won't be exclusive?

Remember, Marvel is coming in with the IP and supervising it to see if it matches the expected quality, everything else comes out of Microsoft's pocket. They don't need a profit-sharing agreement, an upfront payment licensing agreement is very common. Microsoft even licenses Shadowrun in this way to Paradox.

@ThorsHammer Indiana Jones is still not announced as an exclusive and is not on the Xbox channel, even though the renegotiation for exclusivity has already happened and been leaked thanks to the FTC.

Also we don't know if all of ABK will continue as multiplat, they've already stated that there may be some exclusive games, but COD will never be one of them. And that is the only IP that they promised to keep as multiplatform, especially after the end of this generation.

@Defcon5 Still they paid for the development and probably for the licensing of the IP, all the cost and risk is with them.

@croaker_1 Noop, Sony Only owns movie rights for everything else belongs to Disney, Spiderman games with Sony are Just a licensed, like Wolverine and Blade.

@BusyOlf Yes, cause Marvel gets the check during IP licensing

@get2sammyb The same goes for Indiana Jones, also not on the Xbox Channel, but we Stills know that It is a Xbox exclusives, thanks to the renegotiation of the agreement by Microsoft with Disney, everything revealed during the FTC case, if they did this for Indiana Jones, why in a new agreement, made under Xbox Wouldn't they negotiate exclusivity? Why not comment? I don't know, but it's serving as marketing for the game, the same applies to Indiana Jones before the leak.

@UltimateOtaku91 The same guy who claims Sony bought Bandai Nanco, right?

@Gunnerzaurus almost as If console players dont buy CRPG's.

@rpawlos15133 That IS not even a thing right Now, Sony has exclusive content, and Microsoft never made a promise about maintaining other multiplatform IP's, whatever comes is profit, Sony could take this chance and bring Jak (my favorite PS IP) back.

@TheCollector316 CoD Will be on XGP, and there meu bem free perks on Xbox Game Pass, but nothing os exclusive to Xbox, and Sony (as long as they pay for It) can put CoD on PS+ on day 1.

@Rmg0731 Starfield sales disagree, seventh best-selling game of the year + XGP users

@gwyntendo What does this have to do with CoD, including his speech on the Xbox stepfather was that REGARDING COD THERE WILL BE NO EXCLUSIVE GAMES OR EXCLUSIVE CONTENT, nothing was said about other IP's. Who will say anything related to Bethesda, not even the same publisher.

@Deadsea93 I really liked the gameplay loop, five was a good game, but not what i was sold, 4 was amazing (lore wise)

And i get what u mean, but they can and will buy more, i wish they went for small studios, but right now they dont care about studios, they care about IP's.

And being honest: Ninja Theory, Playground Games, UndeadLabs, Compulsion Games, Obsidian and InXile ( all bought in 2018) have grown under Xbox and deliver some of the most polished games since the acquisition, the same goes for Double Fine acquired in 2019. The big problem are the old studio (Turn 10, The Coalition, Rare, 343 Ind and Mojang) that did not have someone overlooking for years, that was what killed Lionhead, too much freedon.

@Jimboss That one hurt. I hate Amazon.

@Deadsea93 Oh, i loved Halo Infinite, short for sure, but i do not care about online, but people did ask for a gaas Halo.

@XenonKnight Noop, still owned by Crystal Dynamics (bought at the same time as Eidos) under the Embracer Group, Amazon is just the publisher for the next game. Same as ABK being the publisher for Sekiro on the west, but From Software owning the IP.

@BobaTheFett A Publisher not for now, and even in the future a small one, but studios, they for sure can buy a few.

@IAmAshCohen17 i Hope Microsoft uses Toys for Bob to work on ALL the old Rare IP's. And i think u r right about Sega but u really Hope they Go back to buying studios, especially those who already work with them, for example they love using Asobo for Kinect games and Now Flight Simulator pra maybe even saving some Studios from Embracer (saving cause they Said that they Will close more).

@BeerIsAwesome I dont think they can do a hostile take over on a japonese company, people always say that it is more difficult to buy a Japanese company, but as far as I remember it is more difficult to buy in a hostile way, as dar as i remember It is impossible, the government literally has the power to stop a hostile takeover by a foreign company.

@Grumblevolcano Tencent, Amazon and Embracer were acquiring studios before Microsoft. incfact Microsoft started acquiring 'cause they dont want tech giants in the market. And they were afraid of Google and Amazon entering the market in a disruptive way.

@thefourfoldroot1 TBH It Just looks like u ARE not happy that this time PS IS not the one getting exclusive content as It usually does.

@pyrrhic_victory ESO and FO76 are live service games, just like Minecraft they have always received updates, it is not a case of a single-player game that has a sequel announced as Xbox exclusive scheduled to be released in 2024.

@pyrrhic_victory Ninja Theory did not work on that, Xbox hired a third-party studio to do the update for their platform, marketing.

Ninja Theory only works with their projects related to mental health at the moment, 2 being games (Hellblade , Projecto Mara) the other a partnership with the people who helped in the development of Hellblade.

I cant see why would Microsoft pay for a update on PS5 WHILE Sony was charging PS users for updates on their first-party games.

@McBurn not Destiny, but CoD Will have, Just like Hogwarts Legacy, Avengers, Control, and I'm sure I can add a dozen more without having to think twice.

@Netret0120 These would be legacy content, that is what would make sense to release on PS5. That is the only thing Microsoft said would still be multiplat, just look at Quake and Quake 2

@slayernz Larian is a studio with more employees than most Sony and Microsoft studios, are you really going to call them small?

@Nepp67 No, they have Said that legacy content Will release on other consoles, PS users used that to say that existing IP's would be released on PS5 , devs said that It was about re-releases/remasters/remakes. Devs were right, aka FO4 PS5 version/Skyrim PS5 version/Quake/Quake 2 remasters.

@NinjaNicky that IS no longer possible do to size/Speedo since the PS4, and now even worst a disk does not transmit data at the same speed as an SSD.

@Mikey856 No, he doesn't have to explain anything, the only ones who have a say in this topic would be shareholders, and for them it doesn't matter, for them what matters is who pays the most and the answer was Microsoft.

Come on guys, lets not pretendo that DLC First on one console was last seen on X360 Sony did It with PS5, still has exclusive content as some times modes...

@Dadou ABK still owns publishing rights for that one, still not under MS.

@IndoorEnthusiast Why would they use the PS3 version as the basis for a port when the X360 version is the prettier, was made for hardware architecture most similar to the PC version that is used on today's consoles?

@theSpectre I think this IS Just what Phil Spencer Said, Legacy titles will be on other consoles, legacy as in legacy software.

@Floki Bobby Kotick said that, the guy that probably will leave the company after the acquisition is finished and could have done it if they believed in the IP's.

And again, their own IP vs a third-party IP, Microsoft gets to sell merchandising (toys, backpacks, books, notebooks, pens, clothes, etc) in their own IP, like they do with Halo, Minecraft, Skyrim, Banjo, SoT, etc. They can't do that with Transformers.

It's not as big as CoD, also why risk wasting time on IP's, that following your hypothesis, should be cross-platform. Any first-party IP, makes more sense as multiplat, when compared to a third-party IP.

Not something that Microsoft would usually do, Gears/Fable fans are begging for remasters for years and they still not doing it.

@Dragonsbane Yes, It could, and as i have Said, as long as Sony pays for It Microsoft IS open to put their old games on PS+
