there are only two alternatives for me pc and mobile, the rest don't appeal to me at all, especially facebook

With the improvement of the Cloud all these platforms will slowly see the same games.

Next Gen will be about platform integration. Playing your game on any platform at anytime.

All Hail Nvidia's Grid!!

That's the thing I enjoy about Cloud gaming as I said before, all you need is the good internet connection and hardware is irrelevant. hell you could play Crysis 2 on extreme via Ipad if your connection is good enough.

it totally eradication the need to upgrade your PC or Console again. however this could also see the downfall of the console, without the need to upgrade hardware, why bring out a new console.

My problem with cloud is u need MASSIVE bandwidth and the image ATM isn't as clear as an in system run game.

MaxXAttaxX5084d ago

If I can't play first party games from Sony and Nintendo, along with plenty of other console multiplats with proper controls and community, then these are nowhere near being good alternative.

saladthieves5084d ago

I'll take anything (cloud gaming, mobile gaming etc...) anything BUT facebook.

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.

Jingsing37d ago

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.

Once they re-evaluate exclusive all will be fine….

S2Killinit37d ago

Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.

Jingsing37d ago

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.

Tanktopmaster9237d ago

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
