MS isn't targeting the core gamer anymore, they are targeting the cod/halo frat boy and 12 year olds. They usually abandon the old game when a new one comes out so they wouldn't care. Even if some of them do, there will be enough xbox fanboys who buy it just because "lulz new xbawx". That and they are supposedly also targeting the casuals with the next gen so they wont care ether.
Sony is okay, targeting the core gamer a bit and for some back asswards reason trying to push social media crap on games too. Sure it may look better on paper, but if the next box sells way better which are developers going to flock to?
As for nintendo and pc, they are as usual doing their own thing and seem to be fine.
As destructive as the last generation, especially the xbox/cod crowd, was for gaming in general I fear the next gen will be worse at this rate. |
