He could have told that story 1000 times and would still reek of BS.

Specially in light of the Avengers situation where the developers flat out said that given the movie rights the only choice they had was to make Spiderman exclusive to Playstation or don’t have him at all.

I mean, Sony didn’t acknowledged there was a deal for the films in the first place, we only knew about it because of the hacks, and it’s also the same company that always put their public image first (like the we have the only true next gen games situation and they are totally impossible to run on ps4)

Regarding Indiana Jones exclusivity. I feel that if the game is a Multi Plat then why should MS/XGS/Bethesda waste resources on developing games for the competition? If Indy is MP then imo XGS should just let Lucas Film Games develop it. XGS should use their devs to develop exclusives that entice people into their eco system. Let Bethesda/MGG work on an XB exclusive. Now if Indy is an Xbox exclusive then this would be similar to Spiderman Exclusivity. It could possibly entice fans of the movie series into the XB ecosystem.

MS need more third person developers and Crystal Dynamics fit this bill. Get them and Eidios Montreal from Square

Microsoft needs more games irrelevant of the camera angle. I dont get why you people care so much about that aspect.

Interesting tweet by Brad Sams…

I think MS is going to buy an expensive studio/publisher.

Obviously. And to me the camera is irreverent. However there are a lot of gamers who love third person games and they should be catered to

I think it’s safe to announce the game’s camera even if we still have years to hear about the project.

If machine games want to they will if not they won’t. I mean Indy work in first and third person

I’ve literally said in the other thread that Indy will be first person and play much like Riddick escape from Butcher Bay

I know Brad focuses exclusively on Microsoft, but are we sure that Tweet is for us?

Then again Klobrille did respond. So maybe?

I mean Wolfenstein has a lot aspects that are very common with Indy. Time period, style, nazis…

The deal for Spider-Man game appearances is down to Marvel, not Sony Pictures, so they probably dictated that for The Avengers game. Anyway, I had it the wrong way round and Marvel approached Insomniac.

Last Spider-Man post, as this is the Xbox thread!

This is the Endgame. Xbox was clever this time. Now all those companies will go up VERY high in prices… Private gaming companies are going to be valued like giants.
