In early 2008 Severity was in development hell, today That Gaming Site got confirmation from John Romero that Severity is officially cancelled.
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 Comments? Weren't people hyped for this game?
I had never even heard of it till now. However the fact it had John Romero's involvement fills me with utter dread the game would have been a complete stinker.
Some of us still haven't forgotten "Daikatana", for that game alone John Romero should be banned from coming within 200ft of a programmable device. The canning of "Severity" is not bad news it is incredibly good news it means we won't have to suffer another John Romero game (trust me Daikatana was THAT bad).
I remember it was mentioned a few years back.But I guess it was in the state of vaporware for so long,it seems they pulled it.
Everything started going down hill from there. They tried bringing Q3 back a year later but by then it was too late.
Good riddance CPL and good riddance Severity.
Don't know what kind of game it was supposed to be even. Don't think it will be missed...
