I was the product marketing manager for @GearsofWar 2. We did zero focus testing on the ads. The team was locked in together. Total trust in each other and in what we were making. Taste and confidence.
@revenant_MMXX They can't conceive the concept of a backlog, they think everyone's like them and gotta play the current thing to be up to date on the "conversation". i got 15 games that came out in 2007 i still gotta play, It couldn't be easier to not give af about the next ue5 slop.
@bao_t_nguyen Allot of these brands seen it as free advertising. U don't see it often now cause the aftermarket parts economy doesn't exist like it used to

"As Microsoft gets ready to overhaul its struggling Xbox gaming unit, it hasn't ruled out spinning out or restructuring the unit as a wholly-owned subsidiary, which could make it easier to sell, or creating a joint venture with other partners, according to three people with direct knowledge of the discussions."

Crazy for a game that involves the Mafia and police, never seeing past the HR approved made by committee vibe going on here. maybe its the Karen on the phone or the protagonists wooden dialog or the out of date fashion he's dressed in. It just all feels so sanitized

I got a hands off demo at SGF and it was one of the 3 games that impressed me most out of the 20 or so games that I saw during that weekend.
We live in this weird age of Halo where you can customize your gameplay in anyway you want but people still complain.
Don’t want sprint? Turn it off
Want a 60 round AR? Do it!
Want third person? Go ahead!
Don’t like the HUD? Change it!
Don’t want a remake? Go play MCC!!!
#Halo
@dynamic_voltage possibly gotta do with the upnp had to give my Xbox a static ip forward the port and made sure it doesn't change. Damn nat was always on strict a third of the time before

Hop in and hold tight—Producer Kenji Kanno just dropped a quick dev message for Crazy Taxi: World Tour!
Get a sneak peek at what we’re cookin’ up—fast, loud, and totally crazy. Let’s RIDE! 🔥
I already see people are saying the high skill tech wont make it in but i wouldnt be so doubtful.
"kanno stressed that the game wont just be visually funny, it also needs to be genuinely good as a game, with satisfying skill expression for the player"
It's still baffling Microsoft got rid of tango game works, one of the only studios fluent with idtech engine. And then they open up Halo studios that plan to use unreal engine. @asha_shar learn from that mistake, don't let Xbox continue to making fumbles like this anymore
