Smart delay. Q3 and Q4 are already very packed with big games on various platforms.
Including of course the behemoth that is Grand Theft Auto 6
This is year is packed with incredible games for XBOX players to enjoy, from Halo: Campaign Evolved, Gears of War: E-Day and Call of Duty Modern Warfare 4 to Control Resonant, Star Wars: Galactic Racer and Grand Theft Auto VI. In order to plan our game launches through the holidays, in a way that works best for players, we’re moving Fable to February 2027 so it can have the dedicated moment it deserves. We’re excited to be giving players a major new look at Fable, as well as our broader lineup, at XBOX Games Showcase on June 7.

Why does it feel like ever since I left and stopped covering the video game industry so much of it has gone to absolute awful news constantly.
I'm so sorry to everyone at Bluepoint. You were such a talented and studio and did not deserve this
This industry is in a sad place
Logging in just to say give every single animator that worked on Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3 every award immediately. The cinematography is absolutely insane and incredible. They should be so proud of what they accomplished with their art
While I was away I still kept a close eye on the industry. I see a lot of worrying trends. The biggest of which is how expensive its becoming. Everything from hardware prices, game prices, subscription prices and more. If the trend continues I can see many people being priced out
Typically at this point in the cycle is where getting into a console is supposed to be cheaper. It's where you get console sales to those less well off financially and kids to buy in and sustain a late tail
Thats not happening. In fact consoles are only going up in price

Thought the Xbox Showcase was absolutely fantastic. One of the best they've ever had
So many games in there I'm incredibly excited about. Gears of War E-Day, South of Midnight, Fable, and too many others to list. Congrats to all the developers and Xbox teams on that great show

Looks like the full specs / architecture of Switch 2 are mostly out there now minus a few last pieces of info (clock speeds)
Really excited to see what Nintendo 1st party games look like. What they pulled off with limited Switch 1 tech was impressive and this is a big jump
