So COD is it? That is the only thing Activision produces? No other games?

It's their biggest moneymaker.

I’d like if Microsoft bought the High on Life dev.

Obsidian just had one of its best years ever, without releasing a single RPG

This is what I love about Obsidian; making games outside of the genre they're known for. Hopefully they'll be able to explore more niche games under Microsoft.

Very talented studio with some serious range developing.

The rumor is that Starfield is getting it's own presentation show.

It's confirmed.

To dedicate the proper amount of time for a deep dive into Bethesda Game Studios’ Starfield, a standalone show is in the works.

Xbox and Bethesda to Present Developer_Direct Livestream on January 25 - Xbox Wire

I've heard much better things about Redfall recently, and also good reactions from Starfield playtesters. Could be a good year for Bethesda.

 

[Silvermoth]

I hope so. They’re overdue for a win

 

[Iceman]

I'm hoping other rumours about Hellblade at the end of the year and Avowed early next year also end up being true.

Hi-Fi Rush looks great! Lovely art style. I will wait for reviews but I'm looking forward to play it on GP once I re-sub.

RedFall out on May 2nd. Forza Motorsport still slated for 2023.

hi fi rush looks fun way more so than that other rhythm based game Metal: Hellsinger

That was a great surprise, especially being a shadow drop.

Looks like it’s doing well already too.

Game Pass shadow drop Hi-Fi Rush already a hit with players

98% positive user reviews on Steam. Microsoft seemingly stealth dropped a 2023 GOTY contender.

Wow, this one they did a great job of keeping quiet. Very nice surprise to have.

I played it last night and it’s an absolute delight. Highly recommend. It feels like a proper current gen game as in it’s not like anything that’s come before

Awesome, will give it a try asap. Love it when something drops out of the blue liek that after other games get announced years in advance and continuously delayed.

 

[Silvermoth]

Yeah it’s quite unusual but much appreciated. I could see it being, like, an icon of this era of Xbox
