I say abt time n-gage devices suckd big time n lets get real n-gage as gaming platform never really took off!

Heck i can still remeber wen the first n-gage was been previewd it was hyped as the future of gaming.

Anyhow RIP n-gage!

Its good to see the store getting closed.
Now the Ovi Store will function @ its full...
Its job will be to create games like those on iphone.

Nokia failed to deliver what they promised through N-Gage platform bcz graphics r not up to par with iphone even worse than ngage one so that bound to happen.
Yes OVI is gud but not that like app store.

Ovi ftw.. n-gage was a games only platform, and required separate coding methods to make games work with it.. and also made it very hard for games to get through their checks before being published.. so it was bound to go down, making it so hard for developers..

Not a hard to believe news, as Nokia wasn't using nice strategies to run it, like limited supported mobile phones, expensive as compared to other platforms.... and moreover similar great games are published for symbian platform so why do they need an extra platform? just for a community??? I believe mobile gaming isn't just yet there to be able to compete with current gen console features, not even iPhone.

    Phil should be held responsible for this shitfest too, just like Sarah, but it's highly likely that these decisions are coming from Satya. And this isn't even the end of it. More closures are coming.

    if we are moving towards more and more popular trash across platforms that make billions for companies, I'm happy with all the barriers and exclusivity because at least that brings some pressure to create good stuff.

  • SolitarySoldier SolitarySoldier:
    Phil keeps talking about breaking barriers to gaming, making it accessible on all platforms yada yada, while killing competition and creativity at the same time. the fact that i actually believed him for a second lol

    "These changes are not a reflection of the creativity and skill of the talented individuals at these teams or the risks they took to try new things" ... seems to me that's exactly what it is

    Microsoft deserves all the hate they can get. Seriously i can't explain how much i want to curse them out.

    They could've sold the studios instead of closing them, but the nazi bastards just didn't want competition down the road.

    So i just found out that f***ing s***bag Microsoft shut down Arkane Studio (makers of the brilliant Dishonored series) and Tango Gameworks (makers of the iconic The Evil Within series), among some other studios. I just want to say a giant F*** Y**! to Microsoft. THEY'VE F***ED UP BIG TIME this time.

    Started Dead Island 2, and i find it pretty lame. The story is shit. The characters are either cringe or bland (all 6 of them), The gameplay isn't fun. Even the goddamn zombies don't behave like proper zombies. They're all fast & intelligent unlike how zombies are supposed to be like. Any fan of "zombie" genre cannot possibly like this shitfest of a game. Dying Light 2 was million times better than this shit.

    tbh gaming industry as a whole is failing much like tech industry. They have buckled down too much to Corporate suites then relying on passionate and innovative people. A corporate only believes in financial growth and shareholders.
