Thing is, MS has Anthem marketing. They will have known the release date for sure and still, they went ahead with it.
Ya weird to do that if they knew. I see crackdown as a game they're hoping to use as another big gamepass push. It seems they're going hard with gamepass taking big losses at the moment but thinking big of the future.
Is there more to this interview? I hate when sites break it up into separate articles.
Nah. Game was not ready, and has had problems the entire development cycle.
Never doubted that, because that's an obvious observation. Without the focus shift at Microsoft, Crackdown 3 would've been on the market already though - in a state that probably wouldn't have helped the franchise.
Eh...it's really not done, and MS basically decided it would never be canceled for PR reasons.
If that is true, what is the Coalition's rumored second team doing?
Maybe they're helping get the game off the ground while The Initiative builds up their team, just to get things in motion.
I mean yes, the show itself was one thing, but even from a content perspective I think it wasn't even comparable. It all just seemed like a low-effort move by Sony. It was okay for what it was. The games all looked kinda the same(?) while technically obviously still pretty good.
The on the ground experience is certainly interesting, but it doesn't translate for a broadcasted show. That also affects content choices. It was a big misfire.
I expect it to be like QB. Fun for a little bit but super repetitive
I guess maybe They Spend 400m Dollar For all....
It's difficult to determine the exact number. The price only gets really high when these studios have own great IP or trademarks. All 4 acquisitions cumulative should be in the $200 - 400 Mio area.
