Xbox Acquires Fallout: New Vegas, Star Wars: Knights Of The Old Republic Developer

@godfather830:

Hey man..my new post on this page asks for a Alpha Protocol review & why it sucks or was awesome & worth playing...

WIll you hook me up with a thourough opinion?

@godfather830: I think Sega owns Alpha Protocol. That game was a hot mess, but I do kinda hope Obsidian tries something else like it in the future. Just, you know, finish it this time.

@moonwatcher99: Kotor 2 had a more original storyline unlike Kotor 1 which was a rehash of episode 4.

@moonwatcher99: Moon watcher,,,i wanna tell ya a short story about KOTOR. if youre willing..

2006/07 I got a new caming PC and gifted my old one to my wife. I fealt cheesy and ended up getting her a new HP.

medium specs with a uber video card. etc etc.

AND she agreed to play KOTOR 1 w/ me & hopefully KOTOR2..

And by " with me " I mean our C's we're side by side separate desks...

~but after KOTOR1 again I was bored..and she looooved the game btw...It led to her being a gamer..i'll briefly mention this @ the end...

~So we started KOTOR2 and like I said, "I was bored af! " so I decided to FLip the script and played Dual pistols instea dof lightsaber..

OMG what a experience....I had sooo much fun that she replayed KOTOR2 w/ pistols and I went to kotor1 to play it with pistols...I cant remember if I diddo pistols on kotor1 or redid kotor2 w/ with her..

~So that's the story. I genjoyed it so much that I was able to get a 25 year old hottie to play a game like KOTOR2 & without a lightsaber. which led to her emmediately plying StarWars Empire @ War & to this day she is a gamer..not a power gamer like me but she always has a game going. more on this goes from boring to stale. so whatevs...

~But yeah man EVERYONE should try KOTOR2 with Dual Pistols. it's a whole different experience..

I honestly can't remember if KOTOR1 has the option and even if they do it wont be as good as KOTOR2 as KOTOR outshines KOTOR1 in every single way EXCEPT STORY...

@moonwatcher99: Correct.

@cboye18: Microsoft has always tried to throw money at problems. It hasn't exactly worked for them historically.

@cboye18: They already created a studio called the coalition, they're planning to open another one too.

EDIT: They also opened a new studio called "the initiative" and are still making more.

@cboye18: As opposed to Sony who...also buys studios?

@cboye18: True. Unlike Sony, which certainly didn’t buy Naughty Dog, Sucker Punch, Guerilla Games, Psygnosis, Eidetic, Media Molecule, Zipper or Evolution. No, sir. All created from scratch and not bought at all.

@gleencross: remember when Bungie wa scomplaining about Microsoft being dictator over them before hey left?

The grass is always greener..

imagine if Destiny was a Microsoft exlusive?!?!?

holy! awesomeness..

im no fanboy but I hate publisher control. esp Activision for turning Bungie into the most hated vile scum in all of gaming..

All the good people left bungie & all that remained w'e're the greed & yes men...

@KaptenHaddock: With Xbox's new stance that all their first party stuff with be Play Anywhere titles, that seems pretty unlikely.

@fatsnoopy: Almost like they're desperate or something.

@fatsnoopy: You think its odd that they are buying highly talented developers? Its exactly what they need! My concern is that they'll force certain business models upon them.

@fatsnoopy: how is it odd, its normal business. There is nothing odd about it

@mrdinghat: obsidian has had financial woes for a while now. With this they don't need to layoff people anymore.

@mrdinghat: Do you mean Obsidian? They've been in difficulties for a while, financial speaking. MS just saved them.

@xcael: That escalated quickly.

@xcael: is there a reason why you're so damn aggressive?
