Another Microsoft success, doubters kneel
>decide not to release on ps5 at the last second>game doesn't sellgood job asha
>>750590635>Acting like ps5 would have saved this shit
>>750590635Somehow i dont think ps5 was going to recoup the other $472 million lost
>>750590693xbox games released on ps5 topped the charts when they released, yes
Thats pathetic numbers wtf.
>>750590443> sold more than 400k copiesso.... not even 1 million?yikes...And this shit costed more than $500 million to make?double yikes....
Get woke go broke
> give away game on GAMEPASS> cry when nobody buys gamelol. I'm not gonna lie, Gamepass is very good value because of this shit. At the same time.... it's a very stupid move on Microsoft to kill their own sales.
>>750591063E33 sold like 7 million despite being on gamepass
>>750590950Look chud, they're 1/500th of the way to breaking even. LET. THEM. COOK. MS is never ever making that money back lmao
g-g-gamepass!!!!
>>750590443Fuck, anti woke chuds, we just got btfo!
>>750591105it wasn't xbox exclusive
>>750590783...topping charts means nothing. You know this.
>>750590950>500mThis has to be a combination of things.
I kind of associate the entire theme of Gears with Xbox itself. The series embodies Xbox and the dudebro audience it catered to and, just like the dudebros, Xbox slowly lost relevance and its video game incarnation, Gears, went with it.
>>750590783Retard
>>750590443Woah 400k units against a 500 mil budget.
You can either pay $70 or $20 through gamepass. I wonder what the players will pick.
>>750592859Gears of War has always been a completely mediocre franchise and it was only ever pushed as a flagship title because of the unreal engine. People love to shit on Halo for being babbys first shooter, meanwhile gow’s gameplay was tailored for a lobotomite.
>>750592725It's probably development and marketing costs. Gears was in development for six or seven years, right? And those devs are in Seattle. You think bloated salaries don't add up? It's one of the reasons why Microslop is giving 60k people a chance to resign before they start cutting off heads
Sucks to suck. Next time don't make it lame and gay.
>>750594885Sm2 bodies "E Gay"
>>750590443Is this supposed to be impressive for an established IP AAA game? I don't see why they bothered even making it if that's the level of success they expected.
>>750590443That's actually quite good.
>>750597965>400k on a tent pole AAA game that took 7yrs to make by a team of 150 devs or moreThis is disaster territory. If E-Day was made by a 10 person indie team, this would be a big success story.
>$500M budget>Sold ~1/4 of Marathon did, another colossal failure that had a $400M budget and just about killed Bungiekek fuck all of these faggot companies
>>750594885SM2 guys should pitch a Gears of War game when The Coalition finally gets shut down.
>>750598390No way MS licenses anything to Saber Interactive. Saber is chud coded and their CEO has outright said western dev is fucked because it costs too much and takes too long. But a GoW game from Saber would be kino, I'll agree.
