Just finished Edgerunners2
What a ride! An incredible story, memorable characters with fantastic designs, and phenomenal animation and art style.
I really loved the character development everyone was morally gray and the writer didn't try to create flawless, perfect characters.
@TheRealJTV4K60@capcom Also, we shouldn't forget about the Tempest Engine. packing roughly the raw compute power of an entire PS4 CPU just for audio.
The Tempest Engine offloads heavy audio processing from the CPU, which can make a noticeable difference in an open-world game like GTA.
GTA 6 is 18 days away.
The Jason Schreier / Bloomberg article released 18 days ago.
You guys know I love putting time into perspective like this. I assure you, the game will be here in what feels like tomorrow. Weโre even closer than you probably think we are LMAO.
@DaReelSebas I haven't watched a single game review on YouTube in like eight years; I only watch technical analyses of games.
You can't even trust those anymore either. Take Digital Foundry, for example they've really fallen off and just aren't professional like they used to be.
@oliver_drk You made a great point. It looks like Microsoft really didn't expect the game to perform this poorly, and this is going to massively influence their future decisions.
Wild how people still treat Jason Schreier like just another journalist.
The man has direct, confidential ties to devs inside literally every major AAA studio.
Love him or hate him, his reporting pressured giants like Rockstar and Naughty Dog to overhaul their crunch culture.
Bloomberg's Jason Schreier confirms Gears of War: E-Day cost $500m to make, matching Kotakuโs report.
โThat is a real number. That is real. Thatโs what weโre looking at here, thatโs what [AAA] games cost to make. Especially in North America these days.โ

@MrkelsGame Naughty Dog created something so extraordinary that even 10 years later, we haven't seen a game rival it. The 2016 GOTY was an utter embarrassment.
Even future generations of new gamers will talk about it and wonder how on earth Uncharted didn't win.
@nib95_ From the looks of it, E-Day might be this generation's largest commercial failure.
A massive wave of layoffs is likely heading for The Coalition, and they'll probably end up being absorbed under Activision Blizzard.
@GreenPulsewire@nib95_ Saros doesn't need to sell tens of millions just like Remedy's games, selling 1.5 to 2 million copies will cover its costs and make it profitable. Even though it launched on April 30th, it still made it into the month's Top 10 best sellers.
@SynisterVee@IsXBOXStillLast The funny thing is that Phil Spencer and Dan Greenawalt were close friends, and Turn 10 was literally built to be Xboxโs GT-killer๐คฃ. Now look at how things turned out for the two of them.
