PressA2Join writes "It’s November 4th, Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare finally launches worldwide across multiple platforms and to be honest, it was never going to receive an overly poor response from video game critics now was it? Infinity Ward simply do not make bad video games, they merely made a bad choice in setting in the eyes of fans. Whilst EA DICE’s World War 1 epic Battlefield 1 proved to a great move for the series and the studio alike, fans of the COD franchise were still frustrated, still not in favour of the route Infinity Ward had taken with their beloved shooter, but after a successful multiplayer beta this past October, were those fans finally beginning to warm to the idea of war in space?"
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
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."
Today, Koei Tecmo announced its financial results for the full fiscal year 2025, related to the period between April 2025 and March 2026.
Ive yet to see anything positive about this game.
Fairly certain that Activision paid critics to give it good scores.
No of course not. These haters don't take facts, reason, critical analysis.
They are committed to hating something they have never played because that is what they have been programmed to do. I didn't even know it was so easy to program people like that.
game great so far to me, man the hate is real, why cant we just accept the game is better then we thought it would be
It currently has a Metacritic of 81. The highest score is 100 and the lowest is 50. I haven't been following CoD for a long time. Is that on par with the last couple of games?
