Microsoft announced its financial results for Q3 of fiscal year 2026, including an update on its gaming Xbox business and more.
Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.
To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.
The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.
Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.
15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.
These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
Thanks to the slip-up of an artist working on the title, we now have more evidence that a new Injustice game is in the works.
Spiders: "We're going to cut straight to the chase so you're not left wondering: After a long period without clear answers, we have received confirmation that Spiders is being liquidated.
What does it mean? This means the company as a whole no longer exists. We'll cease our functions immediately. The planned DLC will release via Nacon, and then-- well, that's it.
We're sorry that it's come to this and would like to thank each and every one of you for your support over the years.
If you have any questions or run into issues with your games, please contact Nacon directly as we'll no longer be able to reply."
Congrat to SONY
Sorcery is a flop in every sense of the word.
I know that U.S. numbers are not important to all the Sony fans here at N4G, but they are important to the gaming community as a whole, meaning developers and gamers.
regardless they are good numbers for the 360, both in hardware and software.
the vita needs a push somehow, based on the numbers (17,581) i think they are going to have to lower the price.
Also Sorcery disappoints in sales (36,174). I was expecting this game to push the Move, but it does not look likely, at least in the U.S.
Ghost Recon for 360 sold aprox three times more than Ghost Recon for Paystration 3, to me it shows that the 360 is way ahead in the online arena in the U.S.
also the 360 is catching up to the WII in the U.S., that is very impressive as well. (43 M v. 37 m)
with Gears Prequel, Halo 4, Fable 4, and Forza Horizon, on the horizon, i do not see this trend ending anytime soon.
Now lets see what happens at E3.....
Sorcery scored "OK" but im sorry the move is a failure... Playstation is my favorite game company but Sony needs to take the loss & "MOVE" on cuz motion controls arent very important to stay successful.. Wii was a SUPER fad & is slowly dying down & kinect isnt crucial for core games.. They need to focus on releasing their heavy hitters, Vita support, & whats needed for PS4 to dominate the console war putting microsoft to sleep, 4ever..
