Just when you thought couldn't possibly go any worse for Microsoft, it does.

meepmoopmeep6613d ago

it begins... the downfall of an empire

AllroundGamer6613d ago

we can only hope for that to happen... but you never know, when the "Empire strikes back" :D

Everything, that has a beginning... has an end.

Genesis56613d ago

No. I think it will just be the downfall of their monopoly. It will be good for consumers to have more choice. They are going to have to learn to share.

TitanUp6613d ago

this isn't good for microsoft.

RealityCheck6613d ago

Just like when Microsoft dropped Intel and went with IBM for their second gaming console.

Drekken6613d ago

and that worked like a charm!

RealityCheck6613d ago

@3.1 I hear you :)

My comment was more meant however that in business, changing partners is par for the course.

Drekken6613d ago

lol i know, I wasn't disagreeing with you at all!! Just stating that quiet possibly it was a horrible choice.

tk6613d ago

It is just a small warning to MS from Intel...
Like MS did with Intel many years ago...

Intel started looking at OS and software development...
MS was not impressed - as their view was that they do everything from the metal up in the Wintel duopoly. So they made Windows NT 3.51 for RISC CPU's. Intel dropped the development... and MS dropped NT for RISC CPU's. Ten years+ later... we see Intel testing the waters again... maybe because MS is investing heavily in CPU development. Check how much IP they develop re CPU and GPU's. This is Intel's response. You develop Hardware... we support other OS... your move.

Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.

dveio13d ago

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.

Jingsing13d 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.

Tanktopmaster9213d ago

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

S2Killinit13d ago

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

Jingsing13d 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.

Tanktopmaster9213d 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
