general media Watchdogs/Microsoft giving a shoutout to Bronies

[Carbon Maestro 1,003]

Okay, on Twitter, I find it crazy how the official Xbox twitter custom-made a response to RainbowDashed16.

The Xbox custom picture is based on Watchdog's main character, now ponified in Rainbow Dash form. Also, this showed up while you're playing Watchdogs.

Zachary White writes MLP fanfiction as a hobby? Oh man, this is funny. 

 

I wonder what other things these huge companies do to place references of bronies.

 

EDIT [5/29/14]

OH MAN. Xbox Live now has MLP Avatars!!!

 

 

Hasbro has teamed up with Microsoft....Well then.

 

[EDIT May 31st]

OH MY GOD, now in Watchdogs, look at the keys!!!

 

Also, there's a Trixie keychain.

In fact, just go check out the easter egg yourself in Watchdogs.

This is pretty awesome, can't wait to tell all my gaming buddies. ^^

 

It's nice to see how popular  our fandom has become, being noticed by Xbox themselves like this. ^^

 

It's very cool, thanks for sharing! ^^ (\

Bronies are particularly everywhere

Many people now wanted to know our fandom existed and awesome

[Azure Envy 1,093]

That is amazing. I need this game. Now.

If you're using PC then you may want to wait until game is more stable; I've read many people are having quite a bit of problems with Uplay as well as the game having bad optimization. If you're on console then... I guess it's fine?

It can't possibly be worse than GTA IV or Ghosts -- but thanks for the warning.

[SnipSnap 432]

I must must MUST have this game now but with it being M and I don't have a PS4, Xbox One, or Windows, I can't

 

Oh...

 

And I wonder what the Anti-bronies will do with their copy of that game? Burn it openly, maybe.

[a Pegasus Pony 134]

Actually the game has tons a References such as being a Furry or a COD commentator even some League of legends out there. They didn't do this because they are bronys but because that is whats out there right now. Xbox twitter post was because of bronies tho.

According to someone I know who has Watch_Dogs for PC, the optimization problem isn't as bad as Ghosts but definitely needs improving. Ugh Ghosts; optimization is one of the biggest problems in that game and it hasn't been fixed in over half a year.

 

Edit: It's said that optimization is particularly horrible with AMD cards.

Yeah, we all know there's other references, but it's cool that they gave a shout out to us either way. It's not like they gave Furry shout outs because they're furries; but it's cool to see a shout out or reference to something that you're a part of or like.

[Rainboom Dash 1,056]

Wow, this is really cool. I was already excited for Watch Dogs but now I'm even more. Microsoft are awesome for this!

[child of the night 271]

Well, time to buy an xbone.

 

Wait... Am I missing something here, an xbone, an xbone... PERFECT, I am using this from now on

[Justin_Case001 4,910]

This made my day.  Awesome.

[The Crimson Cross 7,532]

I had said somewhere that Watchdogs needs to be at least 20% cooler... Well played Microsoft... Well played. 

[Umbral Noir 1,556]

Wow! Now that's a good plan by Microsoft! Get bronies hooked into their game with cool references... I might have to go and buy this game now! xD

 

I think it's pretty cool when brony references pop up in games, but overall there aren't that many. Still, bronies are slowly but surely taking over! It's only a matter of time..... Mwahahahahahahaha!!!

[ReverseFaller 2,484]

That's pretty awesome! I always planned on buying this game anyways, and this makes me want it even more. 

[Carbon Maestro 1,003]

Oh man, now pony avatars are being added to Xbox Live. See the original post for added content.

 

 

Those Discord hips don't lie

[Azure Envy 1,093]

This just made my decision more difficult...

[Hovershy 3,815]

Oh my god, I need this game! Zachary White writes MLP fan fictions?! Priceless!

 

This seriously made me so happy!

[Carbon Maestro 1,003]

OH MY GOD, now in Watchdogs, look at the keys!!! This is so cool for an Easter egg Ubisoft!

 

The keys look like this RD vector...There's also the Trixie one:

In fact, go see for yourself on Watchdogs

This... This is just so terribly, so absolutely, so profoundly.. EPIC

Would get if I had Xbox live! 

[Nit Pick 247]

Well I was going to the avatar store on my Xbone to see if I can find some digital MLP swag to wear on my avatar.  Turns out there isn't one I could find, however I signed into http://marketplace.xbox.com/avatarmarketplace and was able to access all the MLP goodies from there.

 

EDIT: Oh and if I had to nitpick (hehe) the pony models don't look really good.  Their eyes are misshapen and they are not to scale.  They're supposed to be 4 feet tall on average right?

Now I'm torn. I was gonna sell my PS3 to free up some much needed money, but now I'm kinda tempted to keep it and get a copy of Watchdoge. Although then again, I do have my PC, but it's likely not the same.

Uh guys, sorry to be "that" guy, but here's what one of my friends juste sent me.
