In today’s episode, me and Associate Editor Peter Glagowski discuss the recentpurchasing habits from Microsoft, which lately has included a number of notable game studios. From Obsidian Entertainment (the fine folks behindFallout: New Vegas) to even Ninja Theory and InXile Entertainment!
But, will this help them in the next generation of hardware? Personally, I think this has been a long time coming. DespitePhil Spencer’s statementsin the past in regards to exclusive games, I absolutely still think they’re the reason whysomany people buy the hardware itself. I just hope these new studios they’ve purchased don’t end up down the same road as Rare did for nearly a decade.
Whether or not these studios will be making Xboxexclusivegames is still anyone’s guess, but, if anyone can doFable IV— Obsidian Entertainment sure as hell can.
