  • WarGameJunkie posted a message on the post Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater Still Doesn't Have A Release Date.

    @majorstefan: Pressure from the community? Why? Honest question, I don't remember reading anything about it and don't religiously follow Konami or Solid Snake blogs or social media.

  • WarGameJunkie posted a message on the post Terminally Ill Fan Was Able To Play Borderlands 4 Early, And He Says It's Amazing.

    This is really an awesome thing for Gearbox and the Borderlands team to do. The fact that they'd do something like this for a fan is why layoffs in the industry depress me. There are a *lot* of good p...

  • WarGameJunkie posted a message on the post Joker 2 Getting Home Release Less Than A Month After Theatrical Flop.

    @just_visiting: Wait. Joker 2 is basically a musical?!?! What were they thinking?!? Of all the genres you could place a movie about Joker or any of Batman's villians in, a musical is *not* one of them...

  • WarGameJunkie posted a message on the post Joker 2 Getting Home Release Less Than A Month After Theatrical Flop.

    @Crazy_sahara: How good is that show? I love the Batman "universe." Is this show worth getting a Max subscription?

  • WarGameJunkie posted a message on the post Joker 2 Getting Home Release Less Than A Month After Theatrical Flop.

    @bat725: According to Business Insider & The NY Times, WB originally planned to just release Beetlejuice Bettlejuice on Max because they were afraid it would be a financial flop in theaters. Repor...

  • WarGameJunkie posted a message on the post Ubisoft Stock Sinks To 10-Year Low As Star Wars Outlaws Underperforms.

    @dushness: Cyberpunk 2077 had been in development for so long the hype, trailers, etc. generated 8 million preorders. The game breaking bugs weren't widely known until after launch. The hype train wa...

  • WarGameJunkie posted a message on the post Interview With the Cast of Batman: Caped Crusaders.

    @adrardohan: I binged all 10 episodes on Prime shortly after the show released on August 1. Batman is most definitely still pretty central to each episode. If you have Prime, give the show a chance. S...

  • WarGameJunkie posted a message on the post Disney+, Hulu, And ESPN+ Get Price Hikes This Fall.

    Given the yearly price hikes by nearly, if not every, service, I'm starting to be shocked that cable/satellite continues to decline in the US. Yesterday, I read that the "reality" show genre started b...

  • WarGameJunkie posted a message on the post Assassin's Creed Shadows Is Ditching An Iconic Franchise Feature.

    @Jarrkha: Yeah, that's not going to happen. Currently there are 11 AC games planned or in various stages of development. Next year's game is Hexe. For single player games, there's one codenamed Nebula...

  • WarGameJunkie posted a message on the post Assassin's Creed Shadows Is Ditching An Iconic Franchise Feature.

    @BeefoTheBold: I've generally ignored the modern storyline. I've read that the modern storyline will be played inside Infinity, which releases alongside Shadows. Given that (allegedly) Infinity will h...

  • WarGameJunkie posted a message on the post Ubisoft Cancels The Division Heartland, But The Division 3 Is Still Coming.

    I am somewhat shocked at Heartland's cancellation. VGC reported in late November that the game was far enough along to be rated in Taiwan.According to things I've read about the most recent beta, at t...

  • WarGameJunkie posted a message on the post Xbox President Talks The Future Of Its Hardware And The Importance Of Backward Compatibility.

    This is another example of there pretty clearly being an internal rift within XBox IMO, and for whatever reason, Nudella and Microsoft leadership are seemingly content to allow it to fester.In the pas...

  • WarGameJunkie posted a message on the post What The Hell Is Happening At Xbox? | Spot On.

    I think you're right about XBox putting more of its games on other platforms. However, if they do that, what does that do to the hardware part of XBox? They've publicly admitted that last gen was the ...

  • WarGameJunkie posted a message on the post Perfect Dark Reboot Is Allegedly In Bad Shape.

    How does development even proceed if management can't come to a clear, concrete decision as to whether the game should be a FPS?!?! It's one thing to have the top down structure that contributed to th...

  • WarGameJunkie posted a message on the post Xbox Is Moving "Full Speed Ahead" On Next-Gen Hardware.

    @Tiwill44: GTA 6 absolutely will run on the Series S. Any idea Rockstar wouldn't have known what compromises they were going to have to make for the Series S and started discussions with Microsoft abo...

  • WarGameJunkie posted a message on the post FX's Shogun Season 2 May Never Happen.

    I never even thought it might have a season 2. They split material from the book up into 10 episodes. There's nothing left. The reason I'm pleased it's doing so well is that I hope the success will sp...

  • WarGameJunkie posted a message on the post Warner Bros. Discusses "Volatile" AAA Console Games, Will Lean Into Free-To-Play And Mobile.

    Does Perrette not pay attention to the gaming industry as a whole? Or is he just pompous enough to believe Warner Bros. is going to suceed with live service despite so many companies like Rocksteady, ...

  • WarGameJunkie posted a message on the post Skull And Bones Review - Dead In The Water.

    @dussan2: The original plan and the start of development would have done just that. This game was originally supposed to be a single player pirate adventure set in the Caribbean, then the setting was ...

  • WarGameJunkie posted a message on the post Skull And Bones Review - Dead In The Water.

    @CyrusDrake20: They couldn't cancel it. Ubisoft Singapore's subsidy deal with the country's government requires them to release two original IP. This game is one of them. Ubisoft's already privately a...

  • WarGameJunkie posted a message on the post Prime Video Now Has Ads Unless You Pay $3 More Per Month.

    Amazon lost approximately $10 billion on Alexa in 2022. It's not yet known how much that disaster cost the company in 2023, but given that the Alexa team reportedly comprised a large percentage of the...
