Fire the guy. Clearly he has no clue of what they had.
Ah yes fire the one guy that was making deals to revive xbox after the last ceo fumbled xbox 1 era.

Between Helldivers 2 and Hi-Fi Rush, Im convinced that the only thing preventing corporate success in the industry are short-sided money driven decisions. At least Sony listened
Sony didn't, even though PSN isnt a must now, the countries which dont have access to it are still region blocked from buying the game.
The only reason they listened was because of the severe pushback.
They didnt listen, they were losin money, thats all
Translation: "We want a Cashcow filled with Microtansactions that dont cost as much as AAA cause we cant take much more flops"
Hi Fi rush has been a better game than Starfield They are just jealous of it success and starfield failure
Success? Starfield sold almost 10 times as many copies as hi fi rush.. 😂
@@TheJohhnyE ok How many of those were refunded after playing it?
Who’s jealous of who?
@@michaelgarner4423 not much considering it was top 10 2023 most sold game
@@rainbowrandolph9 the big Xbox people who don’t like games they work on for literally decades and it flops and can’t understand why it does But when a newer game company makes a game that actually succeeds they hate it and try to ruin it for everyone else
I'd like to see the team behind Tange come back as an indie dev
User reviews don’t mean anything anymore.
tell that to helldivers 2
Said sony when they made linking a PSN required for Helldivers 2:
Feel the same way about Sunset Overdrive
Sony owns the IP now and Insomniac has said they want to make another one but Sony keeps making them work on super hero games (Spiderman and Wolverine)
@@P_D-px6iv Didn't they make Rachet and Clank Rift Apart a few years ago?
@Delta21OnYT they did Spiderman in 2018, Miles Morale in 2020, Ratchet and Clank Rift Apart in 2021 and Spiderman 2 in 2023, currently they're working on Wolverine
True, Sunset Overdrive was one of my first Xbox One games, it was really cool
@@P_D-px6ivif spidermannis keeping me from Sunset Overdrive 2 than he deserves all of the bad things the comic writers put him through
Guys there are trying to shrink the amount of premium product so they can further control the prices
Same thing happened to echo vr! Except we couldn’t salvage it…
Hi-fi rush was better then most AAA games and should be even more praised for amazing it was needs a sequel
It doesn't even need a reverse review bomb, it literally is a great game
Call in the Helldivers 🦅
FOR DEMOCRACY! FOR THE REPUBLIC!
We have revuew bombing with a leader (hd2) ,now we have the REVERSE REVIEW BOMB from hi fi
Trying to get some one to buy them up
Im going to miss korsica
You see, it was a game that was actually fun, and of course, we cant have that nowadays
Ooo it’s on Ps5? I’ll give it some love and pick it up 😊
Xbox PlayStation these companies really don't care about their developers and their games
Nintendo laid off people as well.
Yeah people are glazing PlayStation in the comments as if they didn't just try to prevent 170+ countries from playing one of their most popular games They are all terrible
Was a great game.. definitely should have kept studio..
Dammit, that means no chance for a Ghostwite Tokyo sequel.
Great, so people see that it's overwhelmingly positive, buy it, and all the money goes to microsoft and steam since the devs arent around. People thinking they're helping the studio when they're just lining microsofts pockets.
Hi fi rush had a 5 year dev cycle with only the first year being small. it also has a lot of licensed rock tracks which costs money too. Unfortunately sales matter most in modern gaming.
Sony's got a fuckin recipe for making gold rn cause of Microsoft. Let's just hope they act on it
It's also part of the Humble Choice monthly games bundle for May.
We did it with helldivers, we can do it with hi fi rush
The only thing that seems to be effective is to tank the rating to where the game would start to become refunded.
So glad I'm smart enough to be a playstation fan lol
You're not a PlayStation fan you like the studios they have If you are a PlayStation you'd have to be the biggest hypocrite in the world
We are letting corporations run games thats what
The sad thing about this is it was shadow dropped because of Starfield. The parent studio is Bethesda and if anyone knows our save and grace Todd Howard, he hates being outshined
Its like the Eric Andre shooting Hannibal Buress meme
There should be a law that allows you to work for competitors regardless of any contract, if you are fired by said company.
So many people are missing the point that Tango was shut down due to the fact that the founder Shinji Mikami left shortly after Hi-fi rush came out. Many of the other developers followed him in leaving the studio. He was the driving force behind the studio and without him Tango was a chicken with it's head cut off.
The reason it stood out to me was 1. Rhythm based fighting, 2. It’s a small game. 3. It’s a small game WITH A POLISH DUB 🇵🇱 and 4. Why did Xbox shut them down?
"What are we even doing anymore" exactly, friend. Couldnt have said it better myself. Corporate morons and "profits before people" have destroyed so much art, so many enjoyable experiences. Its evil.
Between this and Helldivers 2, we as a community are banding together nicely to fight these crappy corps.
Hi-Fi Rush is even in this month's Humble Bundle Choice (may 2024), so you can get it and a bunch other games for a great price
What’s up with the audio?
same thing happened to arkane studio in austin. they had plans for the dishonored series
At this point the best thing you can do if you don't own Hi-Fi Rush is wait for it to be placed on sale for very cheap or outright free show Xbox they can't make money off of games if they're gonna turn around and fire the people responsible for them.
What they really meant to say was "The prime goal of the team making this game is not making us money" But hey, if I'm wrong, it's up to them to prove me wrong
Seriously one of the best, most fun and innovative games I’ve ever played. If you have the opportunity to, you have to play.
Anyone who's ever played the game knows why this is messed up. It's art fr.
The part about firing someone is they do t have to fear being fired anymore Wish we learned to vote with our wallets for once
That game literally dropped out of nowhere last year and was just simply awesome. As most of the games from Tango! And they freaking closed it! And after that they dare to say they care about players and not their wallets
the worst part is all those devs probably signed non-competes and won’t be able to make games for at least a few years
It's one thing for Sony to force PC gamers to have a psn account to play their titles on multiplayer but what Microsoft is doing feels more blood boiling couse this is affecting more gamers and the teams that makes games combined.
If there ain’t a sequel then I’m gonna be mad because Hi-Fi Rush was fun asf 🤩 I loved the blatant humor and sarcasm scattered throughout the game was a nice touch to the rhythm based style. 😁
This game is genuinely one of my favorites I’ve played recently
The game didn’t have enough microtransactions and daily item shop that sold cosmetics and emotes
No no, you don't get it, it's the ONLINE SERVICES that gamers want. It's always the FCKING ONLINE SERVICES and BATTLE FCKING ROYALE. No online? Bye bye studio.
First Helldivers now this People really love to reverse review bomb
saw this coming. buy every studio releasing unique stuff then shut them down or put them under massive time crunch
They should probably review boost it on Xbox too.
This has now been added to the list of "ethical to pirate" games.
I've only played like 2 levels and DAMN THIS GAME IS SUCH PEAK
It was bad enough when they shut the down studio but after finding out that we almost had a sequel I’m straight-up PISSED
Hope sony picks them up, make hifi rush 2 a ps5 and pc exclusive
Yet another case of the people who hold all the power knowing nothing of what they're doing.
My problem is now buying it just lines the pockets of Microsoft who canned the team, not the team who made it
What the executive really meant: We want a small game but a bigger in game store with prestige battle passes.
Big corps want “smaller games” because it makes them more money in the end, it’s not hard to see the success of indie games, and they want a piece of that cake
Game Studios don’t know what they’re doing.
hi fi rush is such a banger game. deserved these review boosts
Awards brings no money to them.
Hi fi rush could've gotten game of the year and Microsoft would've still done this
When you're dealing with companies as a consumer, you speak their language: Money.
2 review bombings this month?! Damn
Looks like they tooks notes from Helldivers 2
Bro what 💀, that was one of, if not, my favorite game of 2023 Why tf they shutting it down 😭😭
Bethesda cant stop updating almost 10+ year old games no one wants updates for (just to break mods at this point) and shidding out garbage games so maybe they should do something about that instead.
I’m craving anything new with hi-fi rush
Someone sees a single negative review: “Nah, I’d win”
With they did that to Titanfall
Remember when Microsoft was buying up a whole bunch of studios and a majority of people were on board with it this is on you
Please don't play Hi-Fi Rush in Xbox or Gamepass, do it on PS5, Steam or Epic. MS don't deserve Hi-Fi Rush.
My guy Xbox owns them by already buying the game it's going to Xbox
@@theprotagonist1311lol dude is a moron
Just pirate it
@elithevancepaying 12 dollars to a corporation that does these scummy practices isn't a solid idea either.
I'm so glad this game got ported to PlayStation. Picked it up a few days ago, it's awesome! Reminds me heavily of No Straight Roads.
Smaller means cheaper shorter development times with way smaller dev teams. Hi Fi Rush was not cheap to make and couldn’t be sold at full RRP due to its perceived “smaller” game nature
Well Microsoft cares about money not awards.
Review bombing either way is as childish as gaming gets. Embarrassing
Agreed. Children with nothing better to do.
Childish or not, what's wrong with defending something you care for?
It did surprisingly work for the helldivers 2 community against sony.
If us helldivers can convince sony to change their mind then im sure an absolutely dedicated community would be able to do the same for xbox
Now now I'm not going to produce it legal legally cuz they're not going to get any money
"We need bigger games that we can pretend to be smaller that give us awards"
Xbox WANTED it to fall flat because it appealed to the portion of the market they can't microtrans into hell. 1990s-2010s either aren't interested in or generally just won't buy into microtransaction trends for various reasons, and Hi-Fi Rush fit perfectly into the Saturday morning cartoon nostalgic trip they love. Xbox was just trying to nip a competitive problem in the butt before it set a precedent that didn't line investor pockets.
They’re also shutting down Arkane studios, known for Dishonored, Prey, bio shock 2, and death loop
Arkane Lyon wasn't shut down (Dishonered, Deathloop, Bioshock support) Arkane Austin was shut down (Prey & Redfall)
That game was so much fun 2, landing hits on beat gave me the vibes of a action game mixed with a rhythm game.
Who are these people that clearly dont know a damn thing about games, making such massive decisions? This screams someone who shouldn't have the job is in that position of power.
