I looked at Steam charts and it blew his other games out of the water... but someone with more in-site, how did they do?
I'm going to pick up and buy once I return from my deployment. Interested in playing and hearing more about it in the podcast.
I also got the platinum yesterday. I truly love this game and can’t wait for the next season! When the game clicks it feels like the most epic heist game.
>Will Xbox revert its first party catalog to exclusive status? This notion is all the rage in the industry right now, on the back of the speed and aggression with which new Xbox head Asha Sharma is working. But the same problems that haunted the brand still do today; indeed, if Microsoft releases some sort of PC-console hybrid, those problems could very well be compounded. Can they truly bail out of exclusivity? Are they talking far too much? And what's with the Xbox brand leaning so heavily into parasocial behavior, anyway, driving so much of this conversation to begin with? We also touch a great deal on the games we're playing, feedback for Saint Slayer, Shuhei Yoshida's recent candid interview, Uncharted 4's tortured development, and a whole lot more. Please enjoy.
>A duo of interesting stories quietly circulated around the PlayStation ecosystem over the last few days, with potential clarity shone on some lingering, years-long issues. For starters, beloved ex-Sony exec Shuhei Yoshida recently spoke at a gaming event in Australia, where he revealed more precious information on his departure from first party, noting that ex-CEO Jim Ryan ultimately fired him from his role for not acceding to his demands. Meanwhile, an ex-Naughty Dog lighting artist seemed to spill the beans on some of the behind-the-scenes drama surrounding Uncharted 4, which -- as you may recall -- was a tortured project. But no one knew things were as bad as they seemingly were, until now. Plus: Age verification is coming to PlayStation hardware near you in the UK and elsewhere, Assassin's Creed IV's remake has finally officially emerged, SEGA's classic Ecco the Dolphin franchise is being revived, and more. Then: Listener inquiries! With Kotaku making aggressive new hires while touting increasing traffic, can the once-storied media brand be saved? Do any of us mess with motion aiming on DualSense? Is there a feeling of melancholy when deleting an old online friend from your PSN list? Would you believe that Colin never even one time suffered from "imposter syndrome"?
