Xbox Big Frigging Xbox game Leak Via FTC

[ItWasMeantToBe19]

This is not really surprising at all, but it's interesting in that it shows how little Bethesda understood modern game development before being purchased.

They really projected 3 year dev cycles for Starfield and TES VI.

Do not expect a sequel for Ghostwire Tokyo and you should expect Deathloop 2 instead of Dishonored 3. This is a really old internal document.

So why are people retweeting that monkey meme that Xbox tweeted?

embarrassing for this ftc, they already showed their amateur skills during the lawsuit. microsoft will likely sue them

Is there evidence that these attachments were accidentally left in by the FTC instead of Microsoft.

According to a post on Era, yes.

Well, I haven't seen that post at all and I have no idea how accurate this post I haven't seen is.

The Microsoft / Activision Blizzard acquisition |OT| Antitrust Simulator (CMA reviews new deal; Ubisoft gets ABK cloud rights; EC new review?) OT

For the lawyers in this thread, does MSFT have any recourse here? The FTC fucked up big time and published trade secrets in the public domain, which means revealing internal strategies to competitors. The information is out there and that's damaging for MSFT.

Give me a leak about a new Banjo-Kazooie game.

Are Nintendo going to sell 60 million copies of Zelda, rather than 30 million, if they go third party? Would that make up for the increased costs and loss of revenue from other areas of their business? Will they sell 100 million copies of Mario Kart, or more?

Maybe. My point was if Nintendo went multiplatform. Now, I don't have the knowledge necessary to see if GamePass will ever be profitable or help the kind of games Nintendo makes prosper.
There's also to consider if the Nintendo base of players doesn't have well, Nintendo hardware, maybe they will dissolve into the reminder of the general market? (altho there's quite a bit of overlap in who owns a Switch so who knows...)

It sounds like Microsoft wants to make one but as of the time of these documents, no money has been invested into making one yet

 

[Octavian]

please elaborate

they'll use them as a punching bag during when they sue

 

[MisterSpo]

Yes, and I talked about both scenarios: third party or Xbox, . Even if Nintendo go multiplatform, the level at which their software sales needs to increase is enormous to offset the loss of billions in revenue from hardware, plus the lowered licensing fees, plus the higher development costs. Add on the fact that Nintendo receive a license fee from every third party game they sell through their own platform, and that's yet another source of revenue loss if they go third party.

There's also to consider if the Nintendo base of players doesn't have well, Nintendo hardware, maybe they will dissolve into the reminder of the general market? (altho there's quite a bit of overlap in who owns a Switch so who knows...)

As you say, there's certainly overlap, but again the case in point is that even if players do migrate and buy Nintendo games, costs are higher and the revenue base for Nintendo is far lower.

in which phil spencer discusses his want for microsoft to acquire nintendo. this seems to be around microsoft's acquisition of zenimax, as they speak of it not having happened yet

I very much doubt that Nintendo was unaware that ValueAct was a former MS BoD member. I'm sure they made the connection right away when those shares were purchased. As much as they may be paying close attention to it, I think they have enough confidence in their business that they'd find Phil's ambition a little amusing.

Also find it funny that MS could be suckered into impulse purchasing TikTok.

Oblivion Remaster confirmed

I have ASCENDED

2024 could be the year of dreams in a decade of dreams

 

[entut1]

Man I know realize the insanity of these leaks. So next-gen plans, a lot of private exchanges, a whole lot of the game schedule, ALL LEAKED?

This is insane and out of the three console manufacturers, even if it happened to potentially the least interesting one, it is still several MAGNITUDES of big.

 

[gamerguy]

I wonder what Doom exclusivity will look like now?

Probably no more miracle ports for Nintendo.

Oblivion Remaster confirmed

This is not a confirmation at all. This is just a confirmation that in 2019, Bethesda planned to do an Oblivion remaster.

This document is four years old.

This adds confirms the previous reports and lines up accurately to what those reports said. Even Nate heard of it

 

[Tentacle-tropes]

Holy crap, what is the FTC doing?!

Running an inept ship because the current chair ran literally everyone out of the office

 

[ItWasMeantToBe19]

Okay, but it's a confirmation that Bethesda planned to do an Oblivion remaster in 2019, not a confirmation that it currently exists.

Cool to be a Republican just because the libs think huge businesses buying other huge businesses is bad.

Fallout 3 remaster? Last time i tried to launch it on my PC it didn't go so well so i'm on board tbh

I can't believe Evil Within is dead.

I didn't think about this, but now i am and i'm very very sad.

 

[Joy-Boy]

Okay, but it's a confirmation that Bethesda planned to do an Oblivion remaster in 2019, not a confirmation that it currently exists.

This is not the only thing pointing to it. This confirms that, in 2019, a remaster was in development like the other reports (with more concrete details and more up to date release timings) said it had been.

 

[batfax]

Oblehvion doesn't even have the Ice Blade of the Monarch, smh. When's Morrowind remaster.

 

[TomNookYankees]

They’re FINALLY putting gyro in their controllers??? Now that’s the big news

This was easily the biggest factor in my choosing of Series X over PS5 at launch, so despite it being the result of a contractual mess, it worked out in MS’s favour lmao

So it was Sony's fault all along?
