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."
no what will kill pc gaming is how games keep coming out that needs u to upgrade ur pc again and again
A PC is just like a table in your dining room. You can do all sorts of things on a table : you can eat, draw, write, sleep, bang your girl, play poker, etc. Of course you can do it on the floor too, but it's less efficient. Of course you can do all this on your bed, but it's not meant to be made that way... at least some parts of the list.
That's the same for PC gaming, saying it will die (even eventually die) is like saying you'll never eat on a table again.
Yeah, Consoles are taking some place, expansions, functions and all but there will always be a place in the world where you can play a brand new cutting edge PC Game. Even if the Consoles have the avantage of being accessible by the general public, I think there are enough people out there who know how to use a computer well enough to run a couple of games.
And by the way, the last PC Game I played was Thief II... so it's been quite some time and therefore I am not a PC Fanboy.
