I believe it will be Mobile/PC. I predict that this or maybe the next gen of consoles will be the last, That is because of the anti-consumer practices by the two major console companies. PC is the most superior platform to play games on, and Mobile is the most portable platform to play games on...
First of all, Great article. I read through it all without getting bored, which is rare. (y)
So, some back ground, i have been learning how to make games since I was 9 back in 2008. I have been actively developing games since the last 4-5 years, But I am yet to finish a project as I cant focus...
Halo ce
I remember playing HALO Combat Evolved on PC back in the day. i think it was 2001 or 2. such an epic game. still one of my favorite PC games. The fondest memory would be the Flood level, honestly that scared the living crap out of me back then. XD
Phil keeps talking about breaking barriers to gaming, making it accessible on all platforms yada yada, while killing competition and creativity at the same time. the fact that i actually believed him for a second lol
Phil should be held responsible for this shitfest too, just like Sarah, but it's highly likely that these decisions are coming from Satya. And this isn't even the end of it. More closures are coming.
if we are moving towards more and more popular trash across platforms that make billions for companies, I'm happy with all the barriers and exclusivity because at least that brings some pressure to create good stuff.

"These changes are not a reflection of the creativity and skill of the talented individuals at these teams or the risks they took to try new things" ... seems to me that's exactly what it is
So i just found out that f***ing s***bag Microsoft shut down Arkane Studio (makers of the brilliant Dishonored series) and Tango Gameworks (makers of the iconic The Evil Within series), among some other studios. I just want to say a giant F*** Y**! to Microsoft. THEY'VE F***ED UP BIG TIME this time.
Started Dead Island 2, and i find it pretty lame. The story is shit. The characters are either cringe or bland (all 6 of them), The gameplay isn't fun. Even the goddamn zombies don't behave like proper zombies. They're all fast & intelligent unlike how zombies are supposed to be like. Any fan of "zombie" genre cannot possibly like this shitfest of a game. Dying Light 2 was million times better than this shit.
