You are getting mad that a company is trying to act in their best interest and by extention the interest of their player base?

A few people no doubt. But only because they think they will get 4k 60 with RT. Which won't actually happen.

I really don't think this Gen needs a pro version because it is lacking the super weak CPU of last generation. Given how far behind AMD is with RT and upscaling compared to Nvidia I would rather they just wait till the end of the console generation to benefit from 8 or so years of hardware and software improvements from AMD.

I don't think you know what cash grab actually means. A cash grab is a product primarily or solely designed with the intent of generating money. Which is basically the entire concept of the video game industry.

And they rebuild the entire game from the ground up, including redesigning the ship lay out to make it more fitting.

They also indicated that Halo would always have a couch cooperative mode. We see how that panned out.

Then stick to twitter and the 200 character limit.

In what possible way are they equal to Elder Scrolls let alone Call of Duty? In terms of player count and or income?

​

Source for this claim please. Preferably sales and income combined to show the full effects. Because those could chase Elder Scrolls tail, CoD is in an entirely different bracket all together.

So how is a limited time exclusivity deal (1 year typically) the same as Elder Scroll 6+ never showing up on PS consoles the same?

Then how is Spiderman in the new Marvel Midnight Sun's game which is being released on Xbox, PC and PS at the same time?

​

Really curious why this is listed as it is quite literally an original IP created specifically for Sony by a 3rd party. Something that isn't really a new concept given you have Sunset Overdrive, Crackdown and Gears of War on Xbox all created by 3rd party developers specifically for Xbox systems. I've never really seen anyone complain about Microsoft "taking" Gears of War away from Nintendo and Sony players.

But your argument is that they would address the problems. Seems like Microsoft was pretty happy to sit back and let 343's cluster fuck go on for years as 4 and 5 also had issues with launch and missing some basic features.

Wasn't there big issues with 343 Studios with over work and heavy reliance on temp workers who would take have their time to learn the game engine and then be let go so they didn't have to hire them full time?

​

Because they launch state of Infinite and how slow they were/are at adding some pretty basic things to the game reeks of some really fucked up working conditions in the studio.
