The Xbox Podcast deep dive on E-Day was published on Monday and briefly featured a version of the latest trailer that incorrectly stated that the game was coming to Sony’s console.
The PS5 logo slip-up in the Xbox podcast seems to support claims that the decision to make Gears an Xbox-only game was made at the last minute by its leadership team.
I wonder if you could make a case for false advertising here.
People are allowed to reasonably make mistakes. This doesn’t reach the threshold for malice
I don’t see how. Lot’s of games get announced and later cancelled and that’s never seen as false advertisement. Even if the game releases, and there’s only a PC/XBox version, you wouldn’t buy that and then sue Microsoft because you can’t play it on PS5 and if you don’t buy it you don’t have a case.
Well, yeah…
But you cheated, you used critical thinking. These days that’s like Shaq bragging to toddlers that he can dunk and they can’t.
It’s the same as when Sony announced Demon’s Souls with a “also on PC” trailer.
