    Arkane Austin and Tango Gameworks shut down by Microsoft

    I was talking more about the various iterations and sequels than the original titles (a lot of 360 era games still ran on the Q3 engine including COD and I’ve even heard some of the code lives on in COD to this day).

    Arkane Austin and Tango Gameworks shut down by Microsoft

    COD was popular then but there were no micro transactions to milk the suckers with, so to imagine it becoming the behemoth it is today is drawing a long bow particularly as there was a lot more mainstream competition back then (Quake 3, Unreal Tournament, Medal of Honor, Team Fortress...

    Good gaming channels on Youtube?

    The ridiculous avatar and weapon skins really ruin the immersion. I wish they'd offer an option for "realistic skins" so you wouldn't have to see multiple copies of some popstar with a bright pink AK47 running around your gritty war arena but I guess then the idiots that paid money for their...

    Arkane Austin and Tango Gameworks shut down by Microsoft

    Given the normie chicks in my office talking about their multiple playthroughs over lunch I'd say yes (all on console of course). Yeah you can buy all the IPs you want but in the end you still have to produce good games. Kotick must be laughing that he got $70billion for a company that was...

    Arkane Austin and Tango Gameworks shut down by Microsoft

    I’m assuming he’s on some kind of deal where he sticks around for a few years after they were purchased and then heads off into the Sunset (preferably for him just before MS closes the studio).

    Baldur's Gate Baldur's Gate 3 RELEASE THREAD

    Arkane Austin and Tango Gameworks shut down by Microsoft

    Tango's closure is probably the most surprising as while none of its releases were stellar, they were all at least competent. No issues with the Redfall developers closing as the metrics on that must have been truly terrible, although it's probably not entirely the devs fault it was shoved out...

    Tyranny + Bastard's Wound Expansion Thread

    Finally finished this as it has been in my pile of shame for ages. (Un)luckily my son gave me the virus again so I have been banished to my man cave where my PC is the only real distraction other than books. I got stalled in the Bastard’s Wound and finally brute forced my way through it and...

    Incline Stellar Blade - Korean mix of DMC/Nier Automata with hot model ass

    Huh? This game is a lot easier the Sekiro. There are tons of enemies that will go down with a basic charge attack before they even get a swing in and the parrying window is pretty generous (especially after you get the perk that makes it easier to pull off). Also the bosses are pretty simple...

    Xbox Allegedly Wants to Speed Up Fallout 5 Launch

    Their own IPs. Having just publicly said they're not doing any more D&D games after BG3 I can't see them suddenly jumping into bed with MS to do a Fallout game (would be cool though).

    Xbox Allegedly Wants to Speed Up Fallout 5 Launch

    I don't think anyone could have predicted the runaway success of the FO TV show which literally had every episode dumped onto the market en masse rather than being drip-fed week by week like most TV shows with aspirations of being perceived as premium/quality entertainment these days outside of...
