That doesn’t really happen though what happens is-
MS buys one of the biggest older players, then changes whatever direction they were going in, to their ‘new hotness’
MS kills the company they bought after being way too late to market, and everyone has already chosen the cool product
Remember when EA did a whole gaywashing thing after being voted worst company in America, two times running.

‘They are’
It’s usually measured as the performance doing a floating point fused multiply-add (fma) - that’s it.
But also, multiply then add is the cornerstone of 3D graphics…
Year of the ReactOS Desktop!
We did it!
Year 👏 of 👏 the 👏 Linux 👏 Desktop!
Yeah I feel that, I didn’t like Horizon 5 due to that, I don’t want to be a superstar out of the gate, let me buy a clapped out mazda demio first.
Do you want themed racing games in different time periods?
If you’re using realworld(or alikes) cars, there isn’t really much more to go for, you’ve got circuit, street, rally, drift and touring cars - which really the only thing you can start to really differ is locale or time period.
F1 is F1 and F1 fans will slaughter anyone who tries to mess with F1. But also there are yearly games, since the rules change every year and the new game is the new rules.
Do you want more arcade style?
What are the indie games that have piqued your interest?
Nothing to say they won’t - it’s actually pretty uncommon for the studio developing a live service to be the one supporting/maintaining it long term.
It must be nice to be so rich you can afford so many 8 hour games though.
That’s what the publishers keep saying, because it distracts from the real issue. (also- 3D artists, 2D artists and graphics programmers aren’t doing gameplay systems…)
The real reason is the monetization of play, if they make things too fun, you’ll keep playing some osingle player game instead of their expensive live service titles.
They make everything bad to try and prop up those live services.
*AAAA industry.
They tried to market it as the first AAAA game.
Also to be fair (and critical), while Sean lied to both Sony and us about the state of the game-
They also probably did have most of everything they promised at one point, then the Christmas Flood happened. That’s when the lies started and but those lies were likely more for Sony rather than us, as it’s entirely possible Sony would have outright cancelled the game if they’d known how much was actually lost in the flood.
Instead they released what they could in the time they had left then just kept plugging away at it post release.
It was a scam then and it’s still a scam now.
El-Niño Southern Oscillation?
*Who needs a modern remake/reimagining of Shakespeare.
If Nintendo were only showcasing games developed AND published by Nintendo, that might be the argument.
They’re not though, some of the games they’re showing they didn’t develop or publish.
Nintendo says emulation is transformative, that due to the recompiler, it’s a new work. Do they have permission from all the rightsholders for third party games to make a transformative work?
Do they even have the permissions from artists who might have licensed their work to Nintendo for X game, but not for the newly emulated ‘Y’
They aren’t the owners of most of the games though, did they ask, in writing, all of the rightsholders for the games they made?
Did they ask the artists if it was ok to re-use their work in a ‘new title’? (according to Nintendo, emulation is transformative)
It technically does, but you won’t be able to run the Windows Phone 8 app on modern Windows ARM.
