as a playstation player, couldn't care less about Doom and Wolfenstein.
it's the same shit every time. same levels with lava and fire and demons.
nothing special and nothing that says must-buy to me.
didn't people say that Eternal was really hard even on normal ?

As a PlayStation player.

 

[Goalus]

This is what's going to be happening going forward unfortunately thanks to Microsoft

The Activision purchase was caused by Sony's own behavior.

 

[Negotiator101]

"At Microsoft we don't intent on taking games away from existing platforms. We want our games to reach as many people as possible, when everybody plays we all win. You'll be able to play the next Doom in all platforms where Xbox games are available"

What?

 

[SmokedMeat]

New editions of Doom will be exclusive to Xbox/PC.

You can’t grow your console business putting your popular games on the competing system that’s kicking your ass.

 

[Dazraell]

We will most likely see with Wolfenstein III (as this is apparently in development for a while). It's a conclusion to a trilogy that was available as a multiplatform game. If they will push it as exclusive, then next Doom, Quake or any other id franchise being PC / Xbox exclusive games is more than given

 

[Slicker than your average]

Phil said he didn't want to stop gamers experiencing games from existing ips and that already had a player base on other platforms..

We all know Phil is full of shit and lies more than comical Ali. Expect every new game going forward to be exclusive unless it's some free to play garbage.

Spencer was pretty clear the purchase was all about putting games where Gamepass is available.

Actually no he wasn't clear. Stop pretending your Messiah actually tells it straight .

"I’ll just say to players out there who are playing Activision Blizzard games on Sony’s platform: It’s not our intent to pull communities away from that platform and we remained committed to that," said Spencer.

 

[In Cold Blood]

No, it won't be on PS.
The Quake 2 remaster isn't a system seller. Anything that is AAA or a game that will move consoles will be exclusive. That goes for the new Wolfenstien, Doom, TES and Fallout are all going to be exclusive.

If they wernt initially, they will be after the way Sony acted with ABK.

 

[xrnzaaas]

Not a chance with new games, but I'm glad they're at least releasing their old titles on other consoles. Thanks to that I picked up Quake 2 for the PS5.

 

[Diddy X]

Xbox needs to gain strenght, make everything exclusive.

 

[Puscifer]

Well, according to Xbox, games with an existing fanbase will still remain multiplatform while games without an existing fanbase (like Starfield or Redfall) will be exclusive, and games like Quake and Doom fit in that first category so a new Doom could very well be multiplatform.
But looking at how vague Xbox has been about TES6 exclusivity anything could happen, lol.

I truly believe that Starfield signals a change in that. It'll have to bomb HARD from an engagement and sales standpoint to make going multiplatform worth it and that's just not going to happen.

 

[SNG32]

I think it would be stupid for them not to release on PlayStation if they want digital a lot of digital sales. Exclusive means it will drop on game pass and it could have the Halo Infinite effect.

[Heisenberg007]

Phil Spencer said that they want Bethesda games available to more players, on the devices they choose to play, and that the Bethesda acquisition was not done to take games away from PlayStation players, so ...

... no, the next Doom will not be multiplatform; it will be an exclusive.

 

[Kerotan]

If MS are the scumbags I suspect they are then I can see it being only Xbox and pc. Laughable when you think how much smaller the Xbox player base is. If anything it should be ps5 and pc exclusive.

 

[Goalus]

You look confused, but also furious in that picture.

 

[Team Andromeda]

It will be on PC, not exclusive.

That's a little lame, noone thought or said the same when apparently FF7, Tomb Raider 2,3,4, Toca, Colin McRae were PS exclusives or VF 2, Sega Rally, and Virtual Cop were Saturn exclusives

And no the next Doom won't be on the PS5

 

[drganon]

Your retardation was too much to handle.

Was about to reply this, we'll see soon enough if good guy Phil is a real good guy or not.

But exactly, if they make TES6 exclusives it means they just lied. Skyrim probably sold at least 5/7 times more on PS3/4/5 than on Xbox systems.

 

[drganon]

How?

I've got a feeling you're not going to get a good answer.

Tomb Raider 2,3,

What is especially funny is that Sony stated the exact same kind of argument back then when they paid to block Core Design games on PS.

We want our best-selling franchise to reach the greatest number of consumers

Core Design

Original home of Lara Croft and Tomb Raider. Discover more about the company and the games developed by Core Design.

Of course Tomb Raider 2 and Fighting Force had versions running perfectly fine and would have released on Saturn. Development was halted in both case.

MS and Phil learnt from the best.

How did I miss this post. This insane narrative has been debunked many times . Activision purchase was born out of their inability to make games and get them out the door after failure after over promise and under delivering. They launched a new console without a single next gen exclusive for it for what, two years? That sonys fault too?

I guess it's easier to believe Xbox failed because of Sony, rather than see fault in Xbox.

 

[SmokedMeat]

I don’t know how Phil’s going to sleep at night knowing he’s upsetting PlayStation customers that hate Xbox.

You and Andromeda's level of butthurt over tomb raider 2 is something to behold.

 

[Goalus]

Your retardation was too much to handle.

Fair enough.
However, I suspect that retardation is often assumed or seen by those who are not the brightest themselves. You were able to quickly edit your post to correct your typo - which suggests that your brain is somewhat functional. I find this highly surprising to be honest. I need to wait and observe to get more insight.

Don't be so emotionally invested. I simply listed facts here.

 

[Dry_Kill_Logic_87]

Surely Eternal is the same shit as all the others? Same levels with fire and demons.

But seriously, Doom Eternal is THE GREATEST FPS EVER.

Apologies for the derail, this thread will now be a bunch of people crying about how they didn't like it as much as Doom 2016. "I ran out of bullets "

As a PlayStation player.

aww did I hurt your feelings.
"greatest fps ever" ? why, cuz MS owns it now ?

Its makes me laugh when now being on a PC isn't exclusive. It makes you wonder why SONY fans said its worth getting a PS for FF7, MGS, and Tomb Raider 2 or why SONY paid EDIOS some $200 million dollars for 4 year lockout deal, when all the Tomb Raiders were on the PC.

 

[Woopah]

I reckon old games will be multiplat, but not new ones.

 

[Team Andromeda]

Just stating the facts mate.

I also remember when Jim said how Sony Doesn't Need to Buy Exclusivity back in 2014 *rollseyes*

Yep. And here's a fact to play Doom 3 on a console you needed a XBox or to play Quake 4 on a console you needed a 360.
Funny how things come around again.

Just buy a Series X and have fun with id next games or just play them on the PC

 

[Blitzmangoman]

I wrote "as a PlayStation player" (because I am a PlayStation player) you dingus.
I really loved Doom and Eternal. It would suck if a new Doom wouldn't release on PS5.

 

[Chukhopops]

Maybe Bethesda but Activision was just pure opportunity arising from the whole Kotick scandal, when he covered for the Blizzard and Treyarch management.

ABK wasn’t even considered a serious option for acquisition before that.

 

[Mr Reasonable]

aww did I hurt your feelings.

Didn't hurt my feelings at all, I wouldn't post my support for the game just because Microsoft bought the publisher, it's a brilliant game, that's it.

 

[The Cockatrice]

No Yes

 

[Cert.in.Death]

Yes. But only if MS is allowed to offer GP subscriptions on PS.

 

[nightmare-slain]

It could be. It might not be. We'll need to wait and see.

Microsoft has every right to make it Xbox/PC exclusive though. It coming to Playstation or Nintendo consoles isn't 100% certain.

 

[Morrie’s wig shop]

No man, I doubt it, maybe, probably not, 50/50.

Is this the start of where everyone without an Xbox or “high end” PC start to get nervous about certain games not showing up on other platforms because of the new OWNER of these IPs not releasing on that specific platform huh, huh, huh is that what’s happening.

Quake 2 just released on everything, but I’m sure they consider that as a legacy like the older doom games.
But who the fuck knows???

 

[Del_X]

No. I also think id's next game is Hexen or something not doom.
EDIT: I think a switch 2 port is more likely than a PlayStation version. PC is a a given.

 

[hybrid_birth]

No it will be exclusive to ps5 and called Doom Reternal

 

[sloppyjoe_gamer]

I hope so.....i really liked Doom Eternal (with the exception of the multiplayer trophies that counted towards the Platinum)

 

[Mister Wolf]

No..........

 

[ManaByte]

Phil said he didn't want to stop gamers experiencing games from existing ips and that already had a player base on other platforms..

The next Doom already has a player base on PlayStation?

Everyone not making disingenuous arguments knows he was talking about existing GAAS games (TESO, Fallout 76, etc).

 

[EverydayBeast]

Nothing wrong with exclusives.
