Support NeoGAF

[L Thammy]

off-topic but anyone else getting this from MMaRsu post? strange lol

My understanding was that they aren't able to get enough consoles ready for the release they planned, so they have to cancel it in some countries to support others. That's the fallout of their previous problem - which CBOAT had intelligently referred to as a "tarbaby".

 

[Cbajd5]

Does Xbox One even have a Japanese release window yet? Why would Japanese devs want to release games on it?

Does the PS4 have a Japanese release window yet either? I really don't know anything other than the financial stuff from a few weeks ago only mentioning it launching in the US and Europe this year.

You do, my friend. You do speak buttocks. You just don't know it yet.

But then the banhammer fell and they were trapped and not able to GAF. "No! I must kill the buttocks!" he shouted. The radio said "No, Crab. You are the buttocks"

 

[Regiruler]

I should stop coming to these threads expecting anything relevant to me. The only one I would be mildly concerned about is Truthfact Numbah 4 and that isn't even coming over here.

 

[Backfoggen]

A Japan-only Xbox One Platinum game that's worth getting mad about? Wth.

At least MS only 1-year hats instead of doing a complete hat.

 

[chubigans]

It thought Cboat was a MS insider? How would he know about a PS4 release date?

He knows some Sony folks, but they're nowhere near in the know as he is with MS. Considering a few retailers know the release date of PS4 it was probably easy to find out.

Also, jeez at a kinectless SKU. If that happens, then holy crap.

Sometime in 2014? They won't commit to a date/timeframe/sometime after Europe tier 2...

 

[Bunta]

wat

and goodbye I suppose

It's amazing there are people who don't know who CBOAT is still.

 

[suddenlyissoon]

I put all my faith in CBOAT until proven otherwise.

 

[LiquidMetal14]

What in the world does this mean?!?!?

Every business spends to succeed.

MSFT had their antitrust case years back. Look it up. They basically buy success because they can. This time it's catching up with them though since they obviously are stumbling to fix their "mistakes".

 

[Pound_lb003]

Gies vs Cboat!!!!

EDIT: Just to remind people, the dude is a person regardless of if you disagree. For the asshat who came straight in with "you're full of shit". Wish I had that as a disclaimer before I got quoted to hell.

 

[phosphor112]

Lol, I wonder how many translations we'll get... A lot of the translations seems to match though, so that's good.

Gies vs Cboat!!!!

When has that guy ever been right? And when was CBOAT ever wrong?

 

[Law Abiding Stranger]

Platinum JP only game for Xbox one.

Really, really dumb choice of Microsoft.

 

[Nirolak]

Does Xbox One even have a Japanese release window yet? Why would Japanese devs want to release games on it?

To be fair neither does the PS4.

 

[cyberheater]

I don't understand why a later SDK would reduce performance. It makes no sense.

My mistake i should've cropped the text in his post, i just meant under his name it's all empty. Nvm it's stupid forget it

 

[Can Crusher]

I think Platinum game isn't just going to release in Japan, but rather it's fully aimed at the Japanese market.

Sucks if MS locks down more japanese exclusives.

Gies vs Cboat!!!!

Gies has been consistently wrong so I don't think his word is worth shit.

 

[Dr. Kitty Muffins]

Fuck, MS got Plat games? Well, looks I'm out of their games again. Oh well.

Edit: Ohhh. Well that's weird.

Hopefully, it is a timed exclusive and it sees all territories on the PS4. I have my doubts about that from the way it is worded but we are dealing with translated second hand info (on a message board) at best.

 

[Frumix]

Gies vs Cboat!!!!

Remember, when they deny, it means it's true.

 

[DrM]

It thought Cboat was a MS insider? How would he know about a PS4 release date?

He will be on Gamescon, so he is probably connected to some devs or even work for someone

 

[LiquidMetal14]

Gies vs Cboat!!!!

Why on earth you would even bring that fool into this is beyond me.

 

[statham]

MS moneyhatting Platinum for a Japan-only Xbox One game? Good luck with that.

Thank god for region free.

 

[Bobnob]

With this news about a kinectless x1 early next year.Could this move ms into launching without a kinect out of fear of people holding back on there original launch day purchase ?

 

[chogidogs]

Everybody! Don't buy xbones at launch so all of us gets the GOOD version!

 

[-griffy-]

Gies vs Cboat!!!!

Why or how would Gies know anything about any of this stuff?

 

[ShogunDarius]

WHAT ABOUT POPERSIA CBOAT? WE HAVENT FORGOTTEN

I put that down to who on earth expected Master Chief in the desert wearing a cape

 

[fastford58]

Gies vs Cboat!!!!

Why did we have to drag that asshat into it.

 

[Uno Venova]

Gies vs Cboat!!!!

Opp

Arthur shuts down the thread with his limitless credibility.

 

[everyday math]

Gies vs Cboat!!!!

This should be interesting.

 

[suddenlyissoon]

Gies knows about as much "inside" stuff about the PS4 launch as I do. And that's absolutely nothing.

 

[Kouriozan]

Why? Xbox is Region free.

Gotta learn Japanese now x)

 

[Breziron]

If that's true: what the hell is going on over there at MS? *shocked*

 

[Katana_Strikes]

Bayonetta 3 XBone exclusive!!

 

[Samyy]

Gies sure does have amazing grammar for a "journalist"

 

[Dug]

Gies vs Cboat!!!!

This will be interesting.

 

[Vastag]

I still can't undestand how MS has botched so much this console.

 

[Pyccko]

Man, "ass storm is coming" might be the most beautiful use of the english language I've ever seen.

 

[JCizzle]

I think Platinum game isn't just going to release in Japan, but rather it's fully aimed at the Japanese market.

Sucks if MS locks down more japanese exclusives.

Dat 10-15% power reduction secret sauce.

 

[LiquidMetal14]

Thank god for region free.

Amen.

 

[Coxy]

Gies vs Cboat!!!!

if gies denies it you can take that as confirmation it's true

 

[Broken Joystick]

"XBottles" is my new favourite thing, thanks CBOAT <3

 

[nib95]

Gies vs Cboat!!!!

Gies is a proven floose who is more likely to get shit wrong in order to peddle PR than he is to offer anything resembling facts.

 

[Grecco]

Disapoointed if the twitch stuff is true thats one of the good things xbox has over ps

 

[Nirolak]

I don't understand why a later SDK would reduce performance. It makes no sense.

You make a code change that has unexpected results when actual games are run.

If you've ever had a bad driver on PC that's hit performance or introduced new bugs to older games, it's similar.

 

[Can Crusher]

Why or how would Gies know anything about any of this stuff?

Maybe he means grammatical inaccuracies.

Dat 10-15% power reduction secret sauce.

There is no power reduction. Probably driver/api problems.

 

[alr1ght]

Gies vs Cboat!!!!

Cboat #truthfact confirmation then!

 

[Tempy]

MS should moneyhat idol games for Japan.

Coworker is going to Black Tusk. Seems like they're going to do promising stuff.

 

[Guymelef]

Digivolution from Microsoft's bitch to Microsoft's insider bitch.

 

[NullPointer]

Gies vs Cboat!!!!

two asses enter, only one ass leaves.

 

[Dresden]

Gies vs Cboat!!!!

Well, when a respected journalist like Arthur Gies says it, it must be true. Locking this thread in two minutes.
