    Discussion Timeline of the Decline of the Xbox Series

    I think a next-gen console/PC hybrid from Xbox is practically guaranteed. There's no reason not to try such an approach, and that's partly where the handheld talks are also coming from. I've outlined multiple times how such an approach could probably work out in their favor, taking into...

    News GTA6 for PC in 2027 according to Rockstar alum.

    Switch 2. I'm calling it right now; R* and T2 want a Switch 2 version of GTA6, and that's probably what they'd push for 2026. There's also the outside chance Microsoft does release a new Xbox console/PC hybrid system, and they'd like to have the "best performing" version of GTA6 on the market...

    Discussion Layoff at King affects 47 workers in Barcelona (more than 7% of their workforce)

    Bigger news here is that the $2 billion revenue King generates is nearly 30% of the total gaming division's. With some simple math, you'll realize that means total annual gaming division at MS is pulling in sub-$10 billion, or the percentage in the report is wrong. Although with the way this...

    News Metaphor: ReFantazio shipments and digital sales top one million

    People did use that tact against FF XVI, so I guess fair is fair 😁

    News Metaphor: ReFantazio shipments and digital sales top one million

    These are shipped or sold-in numbers that SEGA/Atlus are referring to as sales, not sold-through. They'd have no way to declare them as sold-through as the game literally just came out. That said, it will sell-through all of the initially shipped going by metrics, so congrats to them on...

    Discussion European Sales September 2024 | PS5 240K, NSW 66K, XBS 26K

    You say that like it's a bad thing. This is a high-polished AA game, but still a AA game all the same. It has a budget under $100 million, including marketing. We can infer that much. It's also a new IP to the vast majority, as they probably didn't play the PSVR game and might've even...

    News Concord seems set for an eventual relaunch as it receives large updates on the back-end. Via Luke Stephens

    Unless those updates include SIGNIFICANT character redesigns for the majority of the cast, it won't mean anything. And no, that doesn't mean swapping out non-white characters; only the smallest portion of gamers who happen to be complete idiots would be pushing for that. They're ignorable...

    Discussion Google may be broken up, could Sony pick up something interesting in the fallout?

    This is partly why them playing the victim during the ABK stuff pissed me off so much and eroded most of the goodwill Xbox had with me at the time. It just kept getting worst and worst, and the worst was seeing no-name idiots shilling for them as if the narrative were true.

    Discussion Google may be broken up, could Sony pick up something interesting in the fallout?

    If they're going to break up Google, it's only fair to break up Microsoft next. They have a complete stranglehold on the PC OS market with Windows...let's see if they keep that same energy.

    Rumor Rumor: Microsoft has officially informed major stores in Saudi Arabia that it will stop selling Xbox devices in Saudi Arabia.

    Yes the Discord leak was 100% true; only Xbox diehard fanboys & fangirls were denying them. I can't see 3P OEMs making next-gen Xbox devices unless Microsoft at least R&D out a specification & blueprint those 3P can leverage, plus providing them Xbox OS alongside a Windows license and the UI...

    Discussion Sony forecasted 18 million units for the fiscal year

    If I wanted to build a case against your talking points when it comes to GAAS & PlayStation/SIE specifically, I could. But I don't have the time to do that right now.

    Discussion Sony forecasted 18 million units for the fiscal year

    If GAAS were the future you'd have a Concord to sell him.

    Discussion PC gamers aren't buying games again - Silent Hill 2 debuts on Steam with 21k player count

    People need to keep in mind the Silent Hill games have NEVER been that popular. They weren't big sellers back in the day, and there's no reason to expect SH2 remake will suddenly put up RE numbers when Silent Hill 2 never did even between PS2, Xbox and PC. That said SH2 Remake is doing pretty...

    Nintendo Nintendo Announces Nintendo Alarmo

    I don't hate it. Not for me, of course, but I have younger members in the family who'd love it. Actually, I'm much more interested in the technology and how it could be leveraged for games. It'd be cool if Nintendo could repurpose the tech into subwoofer (in design)-like motion detector...

    Discussion Sony forecasted 18 million units for the fiscal year

    You're both right. If Sony ported all their PS3 exclusives to PC that gen (specifically, to Steam) then no matter the price, they wouldn't have recovered at the end of the gen as they managed to. We already have proof of this with the Series X and S. On the other hand, a big price cut DID...

    Discussion Sony forecasted 18 million units for the fiscal year

    Uh...higher cost of the system IS one of the reasons we've been speculating FY targets could get missed. The problem is you're an all-or-nothing and only want to attribute a forecast miss to one factor. The rest of us acknowledge it can be multiple reasons. Price increase is one of them; the...

    Discussion Sony forecasted 18 million units for the fiscal year

    So are you and @Yurinka finally gonna start listening to some of us who've been mentioning the warning signs well in advance, or will you keep burying your heads in the sand? It's never too late to jump on this train.

    Discussion I said that Steam doesn't have State of Plays or Showcases: I was wrong

    So you admit you were wrong? Because XDEV taking up some of Japan Studio's responsibilities in a future collaboration doesn't mean Japan Studio didn't help co-develop Bloodborne on some level. Which is what you were saying... ...which was 100% factually wrong. Could've fooled me, because...
