In an architectural briefing today, Intel's VP and Director Steve Smith talked about Intel's direction with Nehalem, multi-core processors and highly programmable architectures. With information about Nehalem available to the public in great detail, the highlight topic of the conference was Larrabee, Intel's entry into discrete graphics.
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."
Very interesting read.
Intel's a powerhouse on the engineering side, if they can output high end chips at low cost, thats big trouble for amd/ati, and nvidia.
competition on Graphic cards, having just two to choose from just doesn't seem to be enough. Especially when your trying to build a dream PC like I've been trying to do for the last 3 months.
And I've always wanted to have another option. So with intel coming out with this card, should spice things up and give a really great option for system builders.
I have been looking at systems in this magazine below in the back.. ( check it out )... http://issuu.com/crazyglues...
I want to build something hot like that falcon PC but for under $2000 dollars.
If anyone can help or give advice? I'm very open to ideas...
I just want to build something that can run Crysis in Direct 10 with no problem and do video editing like it's nothing.
Whatever intels building it does not seem to be along the same pathway as existing GPU's
I dont think they be gunning the extreme top end personally. Good price/performance in the midrange is my bet. Just my opinion.
