Sony statement on AI usage at PlayStation sony.com/en/SonyInfo/IR…

Unreal Engine 5.8 just made building for Xbox even easier. Microsoft GDK plug-ins are now public—so you can build, package, and ship to Xbox on PC without changing your workflow. 👉 Get started: developer.microsoft.com/games/articles…

Remembering 2023, when Twitter was full of "Xbox should buy Capcom, Sega, Take Two, Square Enix"

Moon Studios boss Thomas Mahler says Game Pass could have worked, but Xbox never delivered the standout hits needed to make it succeed. "You need those games your studios are producing to become smash hits, cultural events that everyone wants to play - but what was the big Xbox game in recent years that was just delightfully good? That game doesn't exist." wccftech.com/game-pass-coul…




I can’t believe that South of Midnight’s budget is estimated to be over $100 million🚀 Meanwhile… ✅Resident Evil Requiem: ~$60-80m ✅Clair Obscure Expedition 33: <$10m ✅Death Stranding: ~$100m The has to be something terribly wrong with management and development for a game to have such an inflated budget for something that hardly even looks current gen. Studios really need to go back rethink their strategies that makes their development time and budget to be that excessive and unsustainable🎤


It's official: the original Black Ops and Black Ops 2 are being ported to PlayStation in July, courtesy of our partners at @IronGalaxy. 🤝


New 'Fallout and 'Elder Scrolls' titles are a "priority" for new Xbox CEO Asha Sharma [via The Information]



According to David Krüger, the French voice of the Master Chief, he, Laëtitia (the voice of Cortana), and none of the original cast members were brought in to record for the Halo: Combat Evolved campaign. According to him, Halo Studios/Microsoft may have potentially used AI to replace them...



🚨 ÚLTIMA HORA 🚨 Matt Booty habla sobre la exclusividad de XBOX, y suena a tener un "medio compromiso": Booty: "Así que vamos a hacer uno este año en 2026, otro el año que viene en 2027, y luego seguiremos pensando en ello de cara al futuro." Variety: ¿Es concreto que solo habrá una exclusiva el año que viene, o hay margen para que eso cambie? "En mi vida pienso en unos 12 meses de avance. Así que estoy aquí para contaros lo que vamos a hacer con esos dos. Pero vamos a seguir analizándolo en el futuro. Y, en línea con lo que hemos hecho antes, no vamos a revelar decisiones sobre plataformas si aún no hemos anunciado una fecha. Así que, si sigues lo que hemos hecho, cuando salimos con alguien hablaremos de exclusividad de plataforma."

Simple one to clear up! I posted a reply to *a reply* to TimDog's OP (x.com/DigitalWolfGun…), which asked whether I actually liked console games (I play about 600 hours on them a year, and was playing that moment). I then retweeted the DigitalWolfGun's question to give context to those following my feed, but accidentally quoted tweeted Tim’s OP, too. I then noticed the mistake, and removed an undid the quote and posts. No trouble here! I'm sure this reply will on fuel the "controversy," but it's just a threading mistake (and on my week 2; nice)







Am I tripping or weren't Senua and Spyro the two newly announced Xbox first-party games? Some of the other games were promoted for Xbox Series since 2020(!), before the system even released.

Xbox will "look to try and do more" exclusives in the future if/when the business gets healthier, says CEO Asha Sharma: "Look, I think that we are the number 2 publisher in the world, and when you do that you want your games to be everywhere. You're stronger when the world plays with you. At the same time, we're increasingly becoming more of a platform, and it's hard to find examples of platforms out there that don't have exclusive services and content." "And so, this is a journey for us. Our business isn't particularly healthy, as you noted, and so we're starting by introducing 1 or 2 signature exclusives, and as the business is healthy, we will look to try and do more."
