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."
Wow big news I guess this must mean the Offset Engine really is what every one is wishing it will be.
I also wonder how this will effect the game Project Offset. My guess it will help but it may not too.
I was expecting Project Offset to be a sleeper hit but now since Intel came in it might become a huge game. Not huge in terms of Halo or MGS but big among those who love these kind of games

I had totally forgot about OP, it's an interesting FPS project.
Is Offset Software a game dev or more a general software developer?
I know Intel has been involved in 3D engines and other software ventures but I have no idea what this news means to gaming, or even to the Project Offset game specifically.
Any ideas why this news would actually be interesting? (don't mean that facetiously)
I'm sorry but I'm glad Sam is happy but all I see now is a game that will take even longer to release, probably PC exclusive to tie into one of Intel's horrible processor campaigns and how it will require a 50 core 9.9gigamegahertz processor(only from Intel) to play it.
Damn, this is some bad news taken at face value. Intel is not a freakin publisher and they have no experience running a game house. I'm still hopeful but I'm starting to feel like the last years of watching and waiting for this game to hit the 360 where nothing but a waste of time.
