Stop judging games by their sales figures, says Tekken's Katsuhiro Harada: “That’s exactly what you’d expect from someone who’s never actually developed games"

I don't think anybody reading these hallowed pages really judges games by their sales figures, but it's nice to hear that perspective affirmed by no less a Legendary Fightguy than Katsuhiro Harada, the former face of Tekken. Out of the blue, Harada has posted some very nice words about Dark Souls kingpin and FromSoftware president Hidetaki Miyazaki, noting that Miyazaki came late to game development and worked on a bunch of less praised or successful games, before landing it big with Souls.

Cyberpunk 2077 Just Hit Another Massive Sales Milestone

Sales of CD Projekt Red's 2020 RPG Cyberpunk 2077 continue to grow, as the game has now passed 40 million copies sold.

"Thank you all for helping us reach this amazing milestone," the developer said.

Rumour: Xbox Still Weighing Up Physical Disc Support for Project Helix After Sony Bombshell

It's not over yet.When Sony announced that it would be dropping all support for physical discs from January 2028 onwards, it raised one key question: would its competitors be doing the same?At this point it seems highly unlikely that the PS6 will ship with a disc drive, but what about Project Helix, the next-gen Xbox? Surely there's an open goal for the Team in Green here.Read the full article on pushsquare.com

After PS5 Disc Controversy, Microsoft Confirms Halo: Campaign Evolved Will Come On A Disc

Following Sony's announcement that it will no longer support physical game discs starting in 2028, Microsoft has confirmed that Halo: Campaign Evolved's physical editions will include discs, including on PS5. Microsoft's announcement likely doesn't have anything to do with Sony's, however. In a Q&A, Microsoft said people who buy a copy of the game will get a physical game case and disc "so that you have tangible items to add to your collection." This applies to the PS5 and Xbox Series X

Noch etwas verschlafen schaute ich auf mein Handy, als ich die Nachricht aus dem blauen Hause des PS-Herstellers las: „Wir geben ’nen feuchten Kehricht auf die WĂŒnsche unserer Spieler*innen, wenn wir ansonsten mehr Gewinn machen können.“ Okay. Das ist nicht, was Sony geschrieben hat.
