Fellow gamers, we’re at a critical moment in gaming right now. EA’s horrible practices are being shined upon and other companies who want to use the same system are witnessing what their future could be like.

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.

Today, Koei Tecmo announced its financial results for the full fiscal year 2025, related to the period between April 2025 and March 2026.

TNS - NCSoft CEO admitted that AI is rapidly becoming a core part of game development, but he added that it cannot replace what makes games fun.
To be fair, there are also human made games that release and lack any fun at all either.
Guild Wars 2 been playing for 14yrs, 1st beta. This is just one company I support, Arenanet and NCSoft, even though I torrent, there are a few PC companies I will buy from. "PlayStation’s Horizon MMO spin-off, Horizon Steel Frontiers." I feel this will be good, NCSoft is a good developer/publisher.
It’s a tool. Use it elevate things and get it done faster. I’m sorry but not every game made by humans is good. If this can help things, then I fully embrace it.
So let me get this straight....
Battlefront is bad, but GTA5 and Overwatch and Heroes of the Storm and Madden and Player Unknown Battle Ground and Call of Duty WW2 and Destiny 2 and possibly Red Dead Redemption 2 are good?
Hypocrites.
The gaming community is hitting hard on EA, we're letting them know they can't keep doing this!
If that future comes to fruition, its dark time ahead for gamers....
The sad fact is that backroom deals have already been made between all the major western publishers they know that if they all push this there is no way anyone can avoid it.
This will be the next big video game market crash. It will cause purple to abandon video games. Remember, it's a hobby. Not a way of life. Purple don't NEED games. And the greed these companies are feeling will be their downfall.
At one point, all of these companies consisted of people who just ENJOYED making and playing video games...
