Store this one away in your "Grass is always greener" file: The two companies that make the brains found in today's computers, Intel and AMD, are both pushing hard to get into graphics, just as the top graphics chip maker, Nvidia, is aiming squarely at the CPU space. It's not an identity crisis so much as a testament to how important graphics have become in the consumer computing experience - and how much money can be made crunching numbers on the corporate side.
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."
I have been waiting forever for someone to kill x86 off , its a really old form of architecture and its holding everything back when it comes to the pc world .
Any of the players in the computer industry are interested in staying in business are going to have to adapt to a U.S. in recession. One way to do this would be to eliminate either the CPU or Graphics card. I think AMD/ATI were smart as they could bring something to the table with harmony. The Intel/Nvidia fight can only play into AMD/ATIs hands...if they don't screw up.
high time, the x86 has been milked too long
not sure about nVIDIA, i know they can, but not sure they will.. i am more confident saying the IBM will kill the x86 structure of, coz they are the ones that are always looking for a new challenge, but nVIDIA keeps developing the same but better (look at the 9800GX2, its just two 8800 Ultras in one)
If Toshiba is smart they'll work on some kind of Cell computer that is way more powerful than the x86 PC. The Cell is anyway. Now we just need a computer built to take advantage of it at a good price. Use Linux as the OS. I think that would be great. The PS3 could do it but isn't really the right design. Make a special Cell for a desktop computer. I know it would sell huge in the college world and R&D/Medical industries.
