New data suggests Microsoft's Bing search engine is continuing to grow well, weeks after its launch. It's great news for the team at Redmond...but it started us wondering: Are we in the middle of a Microsoft Rennaissance?
Microsoft's own data, released yesterday, points to an 8% growth in unique visitors in June over the previous month, and the number of visitors who'd "likely recommend" the service to friends doubled in June.
Add in the roaring success of the Xbox 360 in the console market--where it's busy beating the giant Sony at its own game--along with its potentially amazing Project Natal game motion controller. And what you have is a Microsoft that's looking like a totally reborn entity, strong on many fronts and with good public opinion.
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."
Bing is teh best.

This is funny...
its just a matter of time before the media starts to virally rip apart google as some kind of terrorist organization built to destroy americans in thier homes.
cnet, then variety, then mtv and boom ! youve got public opinion.
Microsoft always likes to call victory before they even play in a game. We'll see how windows 7 really does. Remember, when Vista came out, it was to be he 2nd coming of the greatest OS ever, and it was a POS. They are having success with the 360, but Natal remains to be seen. Looks like this shows the real strength of Microsoft, the Microsoft marketing machine, and it's success for building hype for unreleased products that very may fail regardless of what is hyped.
