Oh great. Another developer that will lose all of its talented people and will eventually be shut down. I'm still waiting for the day when RARE gets shut down.
MS will simply be on fire next gen. Some serious talent now.
pfft, they don't shut down studios ever! Just ask Darkside Games or Press Play or Lionhead...oh wait lol. Yeah MS is going to fuck these studios up and run them into the ground. Going to be sad to see and Wasteland may die again. Or we might get Wasteland Legends rofl. MS is so fucking bad at managing studios and projects. While Obsidian was about to die anyway as they had no money to continue going, at least they would have died on a good game but more likely now they will die in a few years from either being shut down or everyone left and be a shell of a name like Rare.
I just hope they don't start buying Japanese studios esp Platinum (tho not likely). I really prefer it when console makers partner up with developers rather than outright buy them for the most part. Some exceptions. Like Naughty Dog or Monolith Soft.
Are you trying to make a joke? You trying to say Sony troll? Or maybe you're coming out of the closet admitting you're a troll? I mean that's about as much of a revelation as Pat Patterson coming out as gay. Aka not at all because everyone already knew that.
Its a joke and we all know what you are... NCL R Us. And if one going to troll at least get some balance and some sort grasp of knowledge. SONY cancelled more games and shut down more studios than MS and unlike the poor staff of Studio Liverpool, MS gave the staff of Lionhead more than a day Notice and adhere to UK employment rules.
So spare a thought for the poor staff of Studio Liverpool, Studio Cambridge/Guerrilla Cambridge, Evolution Studios, Zipper Interactive, 989 Studios, Incognito, Sony Online... when trying to troll.
Literally, the only reference to Sony was when I said "I really prefer it when console makers partner up with developers rather than outright buy them for the most part. Some exceptions. Like Naughty Dog or Monolith Soft. " No one said Sony isn't bad at managing studios as well. Just in the very few exceptions to the rule, it worked out for those 2 studios as examples. Had Nintendo gotten their way and did purchase Namco (if those rumors are true) then so many games last gen like Dark Souls would have never happened but getting Monolith out of the deal was great. Getting Namco as a whole would have sucked. What did happen benefitted both companies. Naughty Dog, well before PS1 they had such hits as..Way of the Warrior and Keef the Thief..yeah some real winners there.:|
Other than that no one said GEE SONY IS SO MUCH BETTER THAN MICROSOFT! In any shape or form. I dislike when console makers buy studios as a general rule. IPs typically die and become forgotten. Would not want to see Obsidian go out of business as they were damn close to doing so but would have been better if Bethesda (doesn't have to be them just an example) bought them even if they got stuck to Fallout only at least they likely made a better game than 76 or Fallout 4. Seeing Wasteland go to MS is like seeing Ultima go to EA. You know it's going to die not long after the next entry.
I know you aren't SONY its quite clear, since you fail to grasp how many Studios SONY have closed down. You were just using SONY to troll and try and point score over MS, but come a cropper since SONY have closed down more Studios, but never mind....
We all know you're Nintendo to the core, hence the 'NCL R US' reference; Speaking of Nintendo they really need to get some Studios, because MS and SONY are looking to be on fire for the next gen, with the number of Studios they have to make games. Here hoping SEGA and MS allowed Alpha Protocol to be BC and get a 4K patch
There are not enough words in the English language to requisite your buffoonery. I cannot sanction it. So I am finished with this discussion as it were.
You two remind me of Guntz and Knuckle Duster.
I've been on this forum for waaay too long.
I wouldn't mind another Fallout spinoff. New Vegas was excellent. But I just don't know how much they can milk this studio when their most well-known games are sequels to borrowed IPs.
