Great read, Phil. Thanks. It's too bad that the economics of the time just can't get over chasing whatever is growing at the fastest rate. Gaming, now AI, it'll be something else later on. Even b...

@illegal_peanut: I hear you, but I don't think long DLCs are bad. Micros? Bad. Very bad. But something long is basically a semi sequel. I'm playing Phantom Liberty right now, and the amount of go...

@RSM-HQ: That's what I was thinking. Publishers overdid it on planning live service, and now the workers pay the price. There was no way the industry was going to support all the live service they...

@Sushiglutton: The internet? Wait patiently? Surely you jest.
-
@BIG_BOSS_927: Hey, we have a forum called "Tool wars!" No one has posted in it since 1997, but it's there!
-
@girlusocrazy: Yup. Been saying it for years: Nadella has never, ever been more than lukewarm on gaming, period. I think he'd be cold to gamepass, too, save for the fact it's cloud based and he love...
-
@USDevilDog: It's going to be hard to see there being no such thing as XBox. It's too valuable a trademark for MS to just put it out to pasture and let it fade away. You have to figure that either...
-
I mean, does anyone think this will hit in a weird time of year like April? If you see a game this anticipated, and a calendar year, just pencil "November" before the calendar year. If it's ready t...

@girlusocrazy: There's also the fact that MS, with the exception of XBox has never been a gizmo company. They don't make phones, TVs, consumer electronics, etc. They had a tablet once, right? That ...
-
@gatsbythepig: Well, I wouldn't go THAT far. MS has never been a video game company. They've been a big company that does a lot of things, one of which is games. Really, for the last ten years, Nad...
-
@gatsbythepig: Amen, dude. Amen.
-
@ceelogreen94: Yes, youtube is free. Law school is not, and, as someone who paid for that, really, if it was that easy to make billions there'd be no capitalism. I think MS will be fine.

@erustenebrus: [Looks at your avy]Really? Bethesda fan? You don't say?
-
I honestly do not get the outrage, but then, I never go to system wars. I mean, OK, I can understand people saying "Why did I buy the XBox?" That said, if you CARE enough about your XBox that you're...
-
@m4a5: Yeah, I kind of agree with HolyKaPow below me. Sure, a lot of people have both a PS and a PC, but not all. But putting something on PC (or a different console) you're opening up the game to ...

@wbrabbit: Oh I know what a dry county is. And I shall never live in one. ;) Yeah, home prices here (outside Boston, which does have game companies) are bonkers. I bought my house, a split level ran...
-
@blaznwiipspman1: My dude, where are you living where >40K is middle class? We are not neighbors, that's for sure. You need a couple multiples of that around here.
-
I hope they keep some sort of choice, because another thing a lot of people are missing is a generational split. As younger people (teenagers, say) get to the point where they have their own money to...
-
Wonder when they'll introduce "toast pass." Every week, two nice slices of toast and four loaves of toasted pumpernickel no one wants to eat.

@jenovaschilld: Problem is, copyright is 95 years but trademarks are forever. That's usually not a problem. I can use a trademark for my avatar, for instance, because a trademark is all about not co...
