Google Stadia, is visionary, potentially a game changer, and something that could be a paradigm shift for the gaming industry. At this point, the idea of being able to play in 4K at 60FPS without having to pay for the requisite gaming hardware is fantastic.
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
The charity event will be streamed live from Gamescom in August.
Why it could fail? We don't know how it will end up.
I think part of its failure will be the casuals. Like the mobile gaming industry, they come and go.
It will fail until they force everyone to use it.
This isn't fantastic at all,your console experience will provide alot better picture quality and certainly sound too,i use a surround system,Stadia audio will likely be stereo
Input lag.
