Xbox Just Restarted the Console War | Gamified 164
<p>Sharma took over from Spencer last month and is already torching every major decision Xbox made. Employees are surprised. Retailers are confused. Layoffs incoming. Future Halo on PlayStation? Nobody knows.</p><p><br></p><p>Single-player cinematic games are the new prestige format. The shift already happened — prestige migrated from multiplayer/live-service to authored, story-driven experiences, just like it migrated from film to TV. Live-service is becoming the direct-to-video of gaming: cheap, formulaic, and increasingly abandoned. Change my mind.</p><p><br></p><p>Sealed Super Mario Bros. just sold for $3 million. A Superman comic fetched $6 million. But whose nostalgia is actually winning? Is there a ceiling? Is it 10 / 20 / 30 years out? Does Gen Z compress the model so hard they break it entirely? Whose nostalgia wins?</p><p><br></p><p>Change my mind: YouTubers make great movies because filmmaking is adjacent to what they already do. Gamers can't make great games because game development is nothing like playing them. The skill transfer is one-directional. Is this right, or does it oversell how easy filmmaking is and undersell game development? </p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p>CHAPTERS:</p><p>3:22 - Asha's Xbox Exclusive Program</p><p>18:19 - Live Service Games are Dead - Change My Mind</p><p>45:46 - $3M Sale for Mario Bros in 5 Years?</p><p>1:06:04 - YouTubers Are Better Than Hollywood?</p><p><br></p><p>Watch instead of listen on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CMu4oqkffDs</p><p><br></p><p>Host: Payton Kaleiwahea - https://x.com/paytkaleiwahea</p><p>(Sam is on his honeymoon)</p><p><br></p><p>PANEL:</p><p>Oliver Maroney (OpenSea) - https://x.com/OliverMaroney</p><p>Kohji Nagata (Parallel) - https://x.com/ParallelTCGpod</p><p>Gnoc (Digital Collectors Club) - https://x.com/itsGnoc</p><p>Chris Heatherly — Ex-Disney / Ex-NBCUniversal / / chrisheatherly </p><p>Wills Spangler — GameCred / / wills-spangler </p><p>Tony (Makko.ai) - https://x.com/Tvalc</p>

God of War: NO Kratos | Steam Wishlists are BS | Roblox AI | What Killed Destiny? | Gamified 162
<p>Have Steam wishlists become a vanity metric that no longer measures what people think it measures?</p><p><br></p><p>The market just split on AI, and gaming is the clearest example. Nintendo has no AI features and no AI roadmap - and investors rewarded them for it. Roblox is doing the exact opposite: going all-in, building its own generative foundation models and baking agentic tools into the core of how games get made.</p><p><br></p><p>The new God of War: Laufey makes you play as Kratos' wife. Is this bullish or bullsh!t?</p><p><br></p><p>After a ~12-year run, Bungie is ending active development on Destiny 2 with one final content update. There is no Destiny 3.
