A large team (200'ish), I figure didn't lose that many folks after the original Bioshock so they probably had over 100 for long while, working on Infinite for 6 years, selling 3.4m. And if that article is right about the marketing then that probably doesn't even come close to break even.

Still, it does seem pretty insane that the studio just implodes because Levine isn't hot on doing big scale games anymore. Dissolving a studio of that caliber seems nuts, but yeah it probably was sales combined with Levine wanting to step down.

Holy shit, that's awful D:

Yeah, that video makes the actual shooting mechanics look pretty rough, doesn't look like there's any aim assists on.

Does look quite pretty tho, definitely wanna see more of it.

Daaamn the latest episode is some good shit, really starting to amp up now~

Cool looking locations! 13 maps in total, can't wait! ~

The story a few weeks ago was that a bunch of shareholders wanted to cut loose the Xbox, Bing and Surface divisions, but going from that to actually executing on it seems like something that would take quite a while. It's definitely interesting to see what Amazon does next after acquiring Double Helix, pretty odd move on it's own maybe, but it's likely the first of many. If that's just going to developing games on Kindle then that'd be a bit less exciting tho

Every time I've gone with the Smart Pistol, Shotgun or DMR then I've sucked horribly and have gone back to the Assault Rifle or SMG. But yeah, have seen some people be pretty fucking lethal with the shotgun, cloaking and running up to you, fuckers. Also makes fairly short work of your Titan when your being rodeo'ed by a prick with a shotgun.

Also, Stim + Enhanced Parkour kit on Angel City is fucking nuts. Wall running and jumping between rooftops goes so fast that it feels like playing Quake 3 or something, it's great

Puddy is OP

Yeah first sitting and beating the game, a lil bit short but great stuff !

Yup, was just waiting for it. Figured It'd be fairly odd if it didn't address that there.

Just finished the Left Behind DLC in one sitting, starts pretty slow but pretty much just gets better and better (bit like the full game actually). You definitely need to have finished the full game first too, but I definitely recommend this to anyone that has finished and wants more TLoU. Considering how TLoU plays out, then this manages to not feel totally unnecessary and actually adds some interesting details to the character of Ellie. Also has some encounters that rival the best ones from the main game.

Anyway, really good stuff, pretty much couldn't put it down once I started it

Played it for a couple of hours yesterday, really good stuff! And yeah, so fucking fast paced, much faster than I'd expected really, both in terms of gameplay and round time, makes it pretty easy to always justify just playing another round

Ah just got my beta key, downloadin~~

I think it looks like it'll be a lot of fun with enough small additions to mix up the COD formula and make it feel somewhat fresh (something the COD studios are completely incapable of doing these days it seems), but not an absolutely mind boggling revolution of the first person shooter, which I guess some people might've expected considering how much these guys mixed up things in the past. I don't blame them for taking what seems like the more safe route, though it would've definitely have been interesting to see them go way out of their comfort zone and do something radically different.

Pampers just had to touch that low hanging fruit........that's wha-NO!

Signed up, mainly to see if my ancient relic of a PC can handle this.

Pretty damn good, actually~

Yeah, I just wanted him to stop talking for a minute to catch his breath

I'm pretty excited for it, sounds like it will be some good hectic fun with a couple of friends~~from that video then it doesn't exactly blow minds with it's visuals tho

And just when you thought it couldn't get any weirder...

I'd choose Tomb Raider over AC4. Do both if you've got the time/money tho.
