Capcom has pulled in-game ads from 'Street Fighter V,' but it's not clear if this is due to the backlash or just a temporary move.
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.
"Ono also suggested that Capcom was looking to "improve" the feature."
Awesome news!!!
I'm scared for future games
just make sfvi please and end sfv's misery...
I could understand if they made adverts optional and it was only to advertise a game event (world championship of X game) and it rewards players to view the content. But unsure how the ads were in Sf5 as never played.
But if it was forced then it's not acceptable on a pay to own game. But this is the sort of thing you expect from Crapcom.
I witnessed a full screen ad while i was on Killing floor 2. Totally different game but my point is it looks like a whole new wave of bullshit could be heading into games. You pay for a video game yet you are shown an ad. WTF
