This shift could break down many of the traditional boundaries of consoles and unlock exciting new options.
Xbox development is becoming more expensive. Microsoft has increased the price of its Xbox Development Kit (XDK) from $1,500 to $2,000 – a significant 33% price jump. This means game publishers and developers will now pay an additional $500 for each kit they purchase.

And honestly, the person who killed Nicky? Seriously, nobody saw that coming. Even knowing who did it, though, the way they found the body… it just doesn’t add up, and leaves you with a ton of questions.
Please be aware that this discussion contains major spoilers for the Fantastic Four/Gargoyles comic book series.
