    New Xbox CEO Reportedly Told Employees That “Game Pass Has Become Too Expensive for Players”

    Theres more news/ comments milling about, logically the cost of developing games always comes up, and its always these horrible figures. I have to wonder if so many game studios now are serviced by the same laundering funny money hollywood accounting schools. I suspect they are, and this is no...

    New Xbox CEO Reportedly Told Employees That “Game Pass Has Become Too Expensive for Players”

    From a distance it seems MS is being plain stupid, but because we dont know anything about their sales/ profit/loss we will never know. To me its about getting more and more players, and keeping the margin low. Low margin wide user base. I dont know how having 50 tiers with 50 restrictions and...

    What does ' own' mean with no physical media? Sure sure in theory you may have access " indefinetly" with steam or similar, and with library access theres the whim of the provider more so, however, both have a huge loss vs. Physical: you cant re sell squat. This is why i care so much less about...

    Im not resisting libraries nor streaming, its just a pricing issue to me 20$= ok, 30$ not so much. Nothing will happen, physical distribution is already dead, so adding services, libraries and streaming wont make dent into Gabe Newell's fortune. Dont worry about Gabe.

    New Xbox CEO Reportedly Told Employees That “Game Pass Has Become Too Expensive for Players”

    Reading some old articles things seem.interesting, they had cracked 5 billion in revenue (pre hikes). I guess that means 5 MEASLY billions to MS executives. Supposedly the 20$ tier did not make money because the people there used the service, can really read it any other way. Getting legit subs...

    New Xbox CEO Reportedly Told Employees That “Game Pass Has Become Too Expensive for Players”

    I had a fire stick and ultimate for all of 2 months, the intention at 20$ was to keep it you forever like netflix. The service I had no complaints with, but a 10$ hike was an inmediate cancel, 20 I thought it reasonable enough even if a few games are played on the regular (you know finish one...

    So, they overdid it and broke the sweet spot of profit/sales. Likely we will never really know though, with solid numbers I mean.

    Geekbench Flags Intel iBOT Results as Potentially Invalid, Investigation Finds Vectorized Instructions Behind 30% Gains

    Well i think its interesting, its a good tool, but its true, its not really a ' cpu' architecture improvement. Its more of a software optimization process for the specific cpu, like a key and lock. Be it that intel needs to work on things so.its supported, yeah thats not a thing, if it was a...

    Ramageddon Claims Another Victim: Rasperry Pi 500+ Hits $410, Nearly As Expensive as a Mac Mini

    Its time now for better use of more but slower memory... Becuase of no need, since the industry seemed to always provide better and faster all the time, no one tried solutions. That era is over, very over.

    Valve Could Ditch Using a Custom Processor for Steam Deck 2 in Favor of One That Might Outperform the PlayStation 6/Xbox Project Helix

    Im getting a feeling there wont be any Steam Deck built anywhere in asia, we may get a deck in 2037 possibly made in the USA.
