Bungie's Apology | Xbox's Ads Patent | Halo's New Home | Resident Evil Movie 10/10? | Gamified 177
After so many failed attempts, can a new MMO offer enough financial upside to justify the risk again, or does the business case only work for established companies like Blizzard and Riot?

Red flag or green flag: watching an advertisement to earn your next block of uninterrupted gameplay?

Is Halo getting better leadership, or is Xbox admitting its previous structure failed?
