Microsoft has been pushing their Windows App store as their own digital marketplace to purchase games for PC and have bene announcing games left and right the past year that will be available on their platform (Basically it'll be like Steam, GOG, GMG, and any other digital marketplace now). They've also been talking a lot about connectivity between Windows 10 and the Xbox One (As well as getting some version of Win10 on XBO). All gaming related stuff in Microsoft has moved under the Xbox banner so console, PC, and mobile games are now "Xbox" products and will be talked about as such now. Phil Spencer is going to be making an appearance at the PC Gamer conference on Tuesday; most likely to talk about Windows 10 gaming stuff + DX12 stuff. Should note that it is only the creative director (Matt Nava) and the composer (Austin Wintory) are people from Journey who are working on Abzu. thatgamecompany kinda split apart after Journey shipped with some head people at that company parting ways. thatgamecompany has another game in development though and I'm always interested in what Jenova Chen (co-founder of the company/director of all the companies games) has in store. This does remind me though that I hope Journey for the PS4 finally gets a release date. It's in that weird state of "it's announced...sorta". It's officially coming to the system but that version of the game is going to be treated as if it doesn't exist until the arcade version has been out for a bit. There was this: which was just a giveaway for the event and not like, a retailer bundle/special PS4. Yeah this happened just after we finished recording. Though Nintendo has an odd tendency to deny rumors from Nikkei that turn out to be true (Nikkei also leaked out that there was going to be a New 3DS, which Nintendo denied until they officially revealed it lol).
