I’m surprised to read that Paradox rejected a proposal for a new Battletech game. I thought the first one made a lot of money.


PC is another of MS’s platforms with Windows. No shit they’re ok with their games being released on it when consumers are paying over a $100 for a Windows license every few years.


Why comment if you didn’t read the article? Also if you read the article in its entirety you would know why your take received a negative reaction. I don’t agree with deleting comments btw.


I read this last night and thought it was a good article. I’m surprised by the lack of comments.


He made Call of Duty from the ashes of Medal of Honor Allied Assault by helping form the studio Infinity Ward. He wisely bought Guitar Hero from a small device manufacturer. Under his watch Tony Hawk and Spyro made several hundred millions before he ran them into the ground. I hate his guts, but I’m not going to deny his business acumen. There’s a chance MS doesn’t even replace him and he can go further into MS executive suite.


No, MS owns the digital rights to FASA games. Harebrained Schemes did what MS couldn’t do previously. MS made fps online multiplayer Shadowrun game for Xbox which bombed. After that and a few years later Harebrained came in the picture.


Your expectations should be set on low. MS with their infinite money couldn’t do shit with Battletech and Shadowrun, not to mention Rare.


At least Kotick is capable of making good game franchises before killing them with endless sequels. Microsoft is completely incompetent at making games unless it’s a driving sim. This is the final nail in Bliizard’s coffin. Bye bye Warcraft, StarCraft, and Diablo.
