  • Eulbrednuht Blue (@Eulbrednuht) reported

    you could absolutely make an xbox smash bros now with banjo kazooie, overwatch, crash bandicoot and spyro the dragon among others.

  • Dannmann188 Daniel Perkins (@Dannmann188) reported

    @DMC_Ryan Isn't it insane that with BF being in the state it is, that MS now pretty much owns the entire FPS genre? Doom, Wolf, Halo, Overwatch, COD. Then the PS 'Mascots' Crash and Spyro? Christ they are not ****** about.

  • Hayden4293 ur mums mce (@Hayden4293) reported

    damn Xbox really just took overwatch, WOW, COD, Crash Bandicoot and SKYLANDERS😡

  • fkngnxrly N. Pushin’ 🅿️ ۞ (27%↑) (@fkngnxrly) reported

    yanno it ain’t too late Microsoft can still save Overwatch and go the Fortnite/Destiny route so instead of charging a whole new game it’s just a massive overhaul update then you just fix some gameplay and the competitive scene now it’s in the running like Halo

    @The_CrapGamer We may not see any benefit from this as gamers until as late as June 2023. However every Call of Duty game will hit Game Pass all at once. And Spyro. And Crash. And Tony Hawk. And Overwatch. And Diablo. Sekiro might even hit.

  • rogueninja25 Keiran the Gooigi🤠 (@rogueninja25) reported

    @GuestyBFC @8bitjer @XboxP3 Call of Duty, Doom, Halo, Spyro, Crash, Overwatch and Starfield keep crying bro.

  • macphisto96 Mr. MacPhisto (@macphisto96) reported

    @DarkCmf @WilmyHood CoD, Crash Bandicoot, Spyro, Warcraft, Diablo, Overwatch, etc. If they were all PS exclusives all the PS fanboys would claim they were gold, but now they will all be trash to them.

  • KeyTweetsThings your mum (@KeyTweetsThings) reported

    So no more CoD on PlayStation? Shame. Mostly upset about Spyro tbh. Overwatch is *** and Overwatch 2 is dead despite not even being released yet, Crash is only good for nostalgia, still crazy deal from Microsoft

  • CoreyHikari Corey Ware ✏️ 光 (@CoreyHikari) reported

    @mrpyo1 Truthfully the only games I see safe for remaining multiplat are CoD and Overwatch. Everything else, Diablo, Spyro, Crash, etc, could very well be Microsoft exclusive now. 😳

  • FrontlineGamer Prince Tybalt (@FrontlineGamer) reported

    @bramvw1303 @PlayStation @hermenhulst Xbox Game Studios & Bethesda. Sony buying up small teams here & there is not going to have the sway of CoD, Overwatch, Diablo, Warcraft, Crash Bandicoot etc. etc. etc. Don't delude yourself. Honestly, this is the biggest shake up to the industry since the first PlayStation. 2/2

  • megzzbtw megan maximoff (@megzzbtw) reported

    Maybe they’ll finally fix Overwatch

  • AsjadNaqvi Asjad Naqvi (@AsjadNaqvi) reported

    @paulgp Blizzard already lost quite a bit of senior developers in the past years and have not released any major content. No news of Overwatch 2, Diablo 4 that have been promised since forever. OW ranking system is also so broken. Uninstalled everything by them last year.

  • pay_way32 13-4 NFC NORTH CHAMPS🧀 (@pay_way32) reported

    @milkmankeat I don’t think cod would ever go to exclusive but I’d assume for sure Diablo. Possibility of the overwatch series + crash/Spyro going exclusive

  • KameronKKJ 🌟Koolkamjam💫 (@KameronKKJ) reported

    @MunstaMasta Crazy how Halo, Gears of War, Call of Duty, Overwatch, Banjo, Crash Bandicoot, Minecraft, Spyro, Doom are all owned by the same company

  • NotSamSage Sam (@NotSamSage) reported

    @PaulTassi Crash Bandicoot Spyro All the Blizzard games that are still going (WoW, Hearthstone, Diablo, Overwatch) All the "Hero" games (guitar hero for example) Tony Hawk I'm sure there's more, but those are some heavy hitters

  • clobberintime27 clobberintime27 (@clobberintime27) reported

    -Free Toys for Bob, Raven, and High Moon. These talented developers deserve an opportunity to make their own games. They are wasted as support studios - Fix Overwatch and World of Warcraft - Let Call of Duty breathe. Take the time to make these special again

  • drowsierstone Drowsy 🆖 (@drowsierstone) reported

    So...does this mean Xbox now own crash and spyro and overwatch ...gamepass looking way too good

  • Wiisak Ramiro Caribean 💙 (@Wiisak) reported

    If the Bethesda acquisition was already HUGE, imagine now acquiring Call of Duty, Overwatch, Diablo and so many others as exclusive titles for Xbox. It's just ridiculous. I hope Microsoft helps fix the problems they have and STOP firing people. Holy **** I am still computing

  • CrankyGuardian Cranky (@CrankyGuardian) reported

    @jonathonshirle1 @PaulTassi What? WoW, crash, Tony hawk, spyro, cod, overwatch, diablo, candy crush. That's just a few.

  • RyGoesPOP RyGoesPOP (@RyGoesPOP) reported

    @JonComms This means some things might happen Crash is now a Microsoft Character so he gets to join the Next Smash Game. A Spyro or Crash Crossover with Banjo-Kazooie Overwatch and The Elder Scrolls Crossover. Yeah that sums up

  • nova_935 ~Lucas~ | -Nova YT- (@nova_935) reported

    Xbox now owns Doom, Skyrim, Fallout, Banjo Kazooie, Crash Bandicoot, Spyro, Psychonauts, Halo, Overwatch, Minecraft, and Call of Duty. Holy ****

  • KeonDZ SliferIce (@KeonDZ) reported

    @fuckitseominsoo Halo,Call of Duty,Overwatch,Crash,and Spyro crossover

  • SpaceCamel93 L.B (@SpaceCamel93) reported

    @Alaguerre21 @Colteastwood Tony Hawk games haven't been good for decades, the Crash games peaked 20 years ago, Overwatch is cool, the rest i have no interest in at all.

  • fijithefox Fiji (@fijithefox) reported

    I don't care that blizzard got bought by Microsoft. I stopped caring when overwatch fell off. But if Microsoft ruins crash bandicoot I will cry

  • leonardomf93 Leonardo Mazzarella (@leonardomf93) reported

    @olegendfagcomic @heliom8 @Robsoniecker Diablo, Call of Duty, World of Warcraft, Overwatch, Crash, Spyro, Cand Crush, etc.

  • Cipherxz Ciph 🌊 (@Cipherxz) reported

    @AJ62024426 @HoshizoraOW Doubt it because if overwatch pvp is being updated into overwatch 2 pvp they can’t just remove a live service game from platforms

  • KPCeeJ CeeJ (@KPCeeJ) reported

    Outside of the obvious Call of Duty, but Xbox has Candy Crush, Overwatch, WOW, Diablo, and even Crash!

  • darkpanictwitch Rylie is back in Chicago 🥶 (@darkpanictwitch) reported

    @ItsDeeNB @EchoLake_ But what are they really buying? WoW is an also ran to FF14, Overwatch 2 is a joke.. and everything else (hearthstone, heroes, Diablo, StarCraft) is fairly insignificant. Looks like a land grab and whitewashing of the internal issues at Blizzard while Microsoft has money to burn

  • ItsAMeryLife Jason Edward Mery 🇱🇧🇺🇸 (@ItsAMeryLife) reported

    @NicYarbro Yeah, if they can go back and fix the WC3 "remaster" fiasco, that'd be nice. Getting a new WC, WOW, or SC would be lovely. Hell, Overwatch 2 would be a big bump. Beyond that, AV has dozens of titles trapped in limbo and/or half developed. MS has a rare opportunity here.
