    Sony Will Reportedly Lessen the Number of Games It Brings to PC Moving Forward

    Subsidizing hardware just means they loose big on every player who only buys the console for the exclusives. Exactly the type who they exclude by not porting to PC.

    Sony Will Reportedly Lessen the Number of Games It Brings to PC Moving Forward

    So they basically told us don't buy a console if you have a PC, but then want to go back to the way things were? Sorry, there is no going back. That ship has sailed.

    Industry-Wide Layoffs and Studio Closures Continue as Gaming Audiences Lose Interest in New Releases

    I wouldn't call this a gyration. In my opinion the AAA gaming industry has been declining for at least 10 years, with fewer (SP) titles being released, and even fewer of those being great. Even if the sales don't reflect that decline, because sales are influenced by many outside factors as well...

    Industry-Wide Layoffs and Studio Closures Continue as Gaming Audiences Lose Interest in New Releases

    That's exactly what I was responding to. I thought you were listing examples of the "dime a dozen" good single player games. Sorry, I misunderstood. They are part of the economy not the industry. I'm sorry I just can't think of indie developers or mompop businesses as "the industry".

    Industry-Wide Layoffs and Studio Closures Continue as Gaming Audiences Lose Interest in New Releases

    I didn't say it doesn't or that it does appeal to me, If you paused before knee-jerk reacting you'd have noticed that Elden Ring doesn't appeal to me yet I accept that it is considered a good game objectively. And indies are not part of the gaming industry, isn't that why they are called...

    R U SRS? one game a year is dime a dozen? Maybe not even that.

    Industry-Wide Layoffs and Studio Closures Continue as Gaming Audiences Lose Interest in New Releases

    Good games still sell, solution: Make good games. And make games that actually appeal to the gaming demographic, not for social media virtue points. In fact I can share a secret: The less you virtue signal the more your game will appeal to gamers.

    Changing of the Guard at Xbox: Phil Spencer Retires, Sarah Bond Steps Down, Asha Sharma Takes Over as CEO of Microsoft Gaming

    I said it a few days ago, XBOX is a dead brand, this reaffirms that even more.

    Cyberpunk 2077 reviews are trickling in...

    It's not that the game forces you, it just feels wrong and breaks immersion to wander around doing petty stuff instead of looking for a solution for the ticking bomb in your head.

    Cyberpunk 2077 reviews are trickling in...

    I hate the fact that it only works with scaling at an acceptable frame rate. Even on highest quality DLSS it looks like crap compared to native 4K. I fully blame nvidia for ruining gaming forever with this crap. For me too, but that's not saying much since I love the game anyway. My biggest...

    Phison CEO Claims DRAM/NAND Pricing and Supply Issues Will Lead to the End of Many System Integrators and Consumer Electronics Companies

    Why is that an issue? That's what we want. If the datacenter is never finished it can't siphon away RAM, GPUs and SSDs. Meaning what they already have in warehouses doesn't get used so the demand for more drops.

    Phison CEO Claims DRAM/NAND Pricing and Supply Issues Will Lead to the End of Many System Integrators and Consumer Electronics Companies

    The AI bubble won't last until 2029, maybe not even into 2027, it is already coming apart at the seams. See nvidia's sudden backtracking on their openai investment or the stalling of datacenter constructions. They might have bought 60% of memory chip allocation, but I doubt they'll be making...

    Microsoft Explains Why Windows 11 Users Can’t Move the Taskbar, No Plans to Add Feature at This Time

    Not the first feature they took away but it might be the most high profile one, although I didn't use it since W95. But there is a reason for it, and it's control. MS has been slowly eroding user oversight and control in windows like the ability to control when and how updates are installed...

    Microsoft Explains Why Windows 11 Users Can’t Move the Taskbar, No Plans to Add Feature at This Time

    They keep saying this but cloud is simply DOA. For big compute usually means big data, so bandwidth and storage makes the cloud impractical and much slower. Not to mention the cost of terabytes of SSD storage on cloud. And for gaming they'd need faster than light communications to make the lag...

    Microsoft Explains Why Windows 11 Users Can’t Move the Taskbar, No Plans to Add Feature at This Time

    I did not predict the year of linux I predict the end of windows. Normies have already abandoned desktop PCs for smartphones and tablets. GenZ never even used it to begin with

    Microsoft Explains Why Windows 11 Users Can’t Move the Taskbar, No Plans to Add Feature at This Time

    That's what every "too big to fail" company thinks, until something happens to them. XBOX is already a dead brand. Windows can be too. I didn't think it possible even a year ago, but moving to Linux doesn't seem that far fetched now. And not because linux became so much better, but because...

    Microsoft Is Reportedly Exploring the Option to Combine Its PC and Xbox Game Pass Services to Entice More Subscribers

    If a company needs to be failing before implementing consumer friendly features then it deserves to fail. Why are these companies unable to learn from Steam? Instead of copying the model they'd rather destroy it thinking then all gamers would just flock to them. Like EGS. But if steam was...
