Why the fuck are people responding with doctored footage to legitimate questions about the game. How is this sort of open trolling allowed? I've seen several people cite this miles guy as simply trolling this game and others with FUD and he's still not banned?

Miles "Hollow words, hollow man" Quaritch?

He's pretty chill.

I think it's pretty obvious that the footage is doctored without being told. Even if some people get fooled, who cares. It's a joke. You seem way too emotionally attached to this game.

Miles has become a full on joke poster.
 
Are Fable and State of Decay "BIG" or even MS owned IPs? Also does it really matter, I mean, is Sunset Overdrive "BIG"? I would imagine they are big ie, more meaningful to different audiences, and I am pretty certain that the audiences on Xbox One and PC are not the same along with different games appealing to each audience to varying degrees

State of Decay sold 2 million copies with the majority of sales on 360 and Fable is definitely big. Fable 2&3 sold 4 million+ and the original sold 3 million iirc.

Eh, really? I don't see this being the kind of game that makes big money on merchandise. I guess you would do it, in the off chance it did blow up and become the next big thing? So if it does, you have the rights to it? Could just be something that is a mart decision regardless.

If the game does well and I don't see them cash-in with some kind of comic book, cartoon (adult swim), or whatever... I'll be very surprised, that'd be a missed opportunity.

ms aint sony and Halo 4 servers are still up.

Sony is good for supporting their consoles, while Microsoft dropped Xbox 1 OG fast. Even if I was interested in 360 at it's launch I would not consider it because there was no telling when Microsoft would move on to the next thing, with Xbox One having a rocky start I'm not confident in them sticking with it as well, heck it seems like Kinect 2 is pretty much on life support and they spent a ton of money on that.

But it's true, Sony isn't Microsoft, Microsoft isn't Sony, and neither are Nintendo.

Maybe I'm dense, what's doctored about it? Nothing really stands out about that to me

Come on, MS just stopped making OG Xbox games and stopped selling the system when the 360 launched - Live support and all else was there for years and they've stated that the 360 will be supported for years to come.

Ms has actually been really good with continuing support for old products, not just games, when customers still value it.

I'm not saying Sony is bad but don't make Microsoft out to be what they're not.

That wouldn't make any sense at all. How would you propose they rework the technology for Xbox 360? It's an ambitious open world game designed on an engine that is likely not particularly compatible with such ancient hardware.

This isn't like Titanfall which was built on the aging Source engine (where PS3 and 360 were original targets). There's no way they could pull off a decent version of this game on 360 without massive compromises.

so?
is that a problem for you? are you going to write the code and have trouble with it?
on a well known (old) machine too?
I think that you are kicking easy money IF you were a dev company and got offered to do the port and you refused.


unless you think phil spencer himself or ted price will roll up the sleeves and get to work on dat 360 port?
but even if you'd like to think that, there are already prime examples (titanfall, horizon 2) that show how port to older console can be made with no hassle at all.

From what I gather, Miles is an Xbox fan. These joke posts and meta trolling are parodies and sarcasm because of all the shit Xbox and Microsoft get on gaf. Like reverse trolling, you know what I mean? Neuromancer does the same except for Sony. It's tough deciphering what's legit and what's bs unless you read a ton of these threads so I don't blame you or anyone else for not seeing through it. I think the forum will hit critical mass with this stuff eventually, like you'll see a sticky at the top telling people to cut down on the parodies and joke posts.

I don't have favourites. I love all my consoles equally. SSO threads have simply been more fun to post in because of the all concern about the game and its supposedly slow traversal, empty game world, lacking mass appeal, etc.

Does this mean you'll love your XBO more than the others once it has screenshots?

Seeing as how MS's bundling XB1s with this game, I doubt they'd let it to go to PC anytime soon.

lol, never mind its from a former playstation exclusive dev.
what a great idea to pay them to make their own game exclusive, then offer it to non-console players too, at the same time.

:D


anyway, to save myself from reading 1.000 posts, is there ANYBODY here that wrote that he expects the ...pc port in any length of time that is less that a full year?
is there somebody that crazy here?
I mean, the only way that this may happen, is if game is a disappointment and does nothing good.
are you discussing this specific scenario here? otherwise, there really can be no meaning in all these posts..

and even IF game was a disappointment, again, I really-really doubt that they would already have prepared -along with the limited exclusive white console- the marketing for the ...concurrent pc release lolololol
but sure, lets talk about that ..leaked ad for pc, yeah! :D

If I remember correctly they had to stop supporting it, something about the deal they made with Nvidia or something (graphics chip). They couldn't really do much about it without paying a lot for it. It launched in 2001 and was pretty much over in 2005. That was very short to me. I loved last gen and it's long life. I know people would like to get a new system every 5 years but that is a bit quick for me. We're already at 1 year with this new console group.

Certainly the precedent set by Ryse and DR3 would disagree.
 
Anyone who hasn't been hiding under a rock during the last year would be able to predict that this game will end up on PC sooner or later. Look at other XBO exclusives not developed by MS internal studios and where the IP is not owned by MS. Titanfall, Dead Rising 3, Ryse. They all ended up on PC eventually, and so will likely this one.

But it's not a big deal. Doesn’t take anything away from your enjoyment of this game this month.

This will be a generation where we may see a bit more exclusive console games coming to PC, remember how quick they got Forza ported to PC ..just for an example i guess is why they did that but it just goes to show that these new consoles are much closer to PC architecture this time around that porting these games gotta be much more efficient and costs far less to do these port jobs to PC but that's just my opinion, of course.

I really don't think SO is coming to PC. Dead Rising and Ryse were different situations.

Ah, good old meaningless and overused phrase.
It's not meaningless and overused, what he said is correct. The last few months I've seen lots of posts like these from people which I can only imagine crying behind their desks because they think that we (we, as in members of NeoGAF) hate the Xbox One.
"Oh its perfectly normal that everything XB1 related gets hated on over here"
"Another XB1 thread ruined, but I guess that's the usual business on these forums"
Those statements are overused, and it's getting tiring seeing these persecution complex posts everytime a thread gets derailled or ruined because some other people can't stop giving their opinion about a product that they dislike.

I'm a little confused by this quote.. Was this meant to be sarcastic? Shouldn't the GAF collective get upset when threads are constantly "derailed or ruined"? Giving an opinion is one thing but isn't derailing or ruining a thread considered bad here? Just curious about the statement here it seemed a little contradictory of itself.

It does seems to be the general perception of neogaf by other communities, wether the perception is true or false... I don't think this notion is came out of spontaneous generation, narratives are created because people perceptions based on actions and words.

it is one thing to express your opinion about something you don't like, it is another present assumptions as facts and to wish the failure of a platform you are not a fanboy of.
 
Different how?

Different because Insomniac has never made a PC game which obviously means they never will. It's like, for 20 years all they did were PS games so why would we ever expect them to do anything non PlayStation related..... let alone an exclusive for another console..... Yea I don't get that logic.
