This time it may be a few days but the next piece of DLC or worse, a full game is exclusive to GP for a week, then a couple weeks, then a whole month.

This type of actions make me want to unsubscribe to the service altogether.



I don't think that's the case. If it were, they wouldn't have referenced Xbox owners having access to it "soon".

While I totally see what you're saying, I'd be a lot more concerned if it weren't Xbox branded cosmetics and an obvious promotional thing. Maybe it's a slippery slope, but considering it's obviously something Xbox asked Psyonix to do and probably worked with them to do it, I'd say it's a bit early. Any DLC comes to game pass as a timed exclusive that isn't Xbox branded cosmetics and I'll be right there with you though.

Why do you think that?

Generally, going in to E3 we would have a lot of rumours flying around about potential acquisitions and also a lot of insiders talking about it, it's just been a really low key topic on the internet outside of this thread

Personally it wouldn't bother me, i think we'll see some surprises from MGSP, but i can't deny the expectation is there because of X018 and E3 2018

Based on? Seems like at least one is guaranteed.

Just a gut feeling, i'm not an insider or anything :P

Based on them saying they're not done getting studios, and rumours of them being in talks with studios. The only reason there was talk of them announcing a studio acquisition at X0 is because Klobrille leaked it, and even then, nobody heard anything about Inxile.

I think MS is keeping a tight lid on everything for now and we already have insiders stating that acquisitions will be announced at the event.

I'm on the fence about any new acquisitions. On one hand we know they have been talking to studios but on the other I haven't seen anything really substantial to show 100% we are going to see new studios this E3. Phil may want to focus on the previously newly acquired studios and give them a chance to shine before overshadowing them with even more studios. Either way we should keep our expectations in check but I'm excited. It will never happen but if they acquired CDPR I would attempt a backflip and hurt myself.

I mean, the only studio we knew about before E3 2018 was Playground Games because of the senior staff listing or whatever it was on MS's website, I don't recall anything else leaking.

Klobrille (and others) have expressed that they find it highly likely we'll see an acquisition(s).
