GR Writes: As of this writing, we're already three weeks into 2010. The "new" year is already practically ancient, and pretty soon we'll have run out of time to make wild, erratic, entirely factual predictions about things that will happen over the next 11 months. So with January nearly over, we're going for the jugular and answering the question that's on everyone's mind: between the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, Wii and PC, which gaming platform will claim victory by the end of this year.
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."
All consoles have one hell of a line-up this year. Probably, only getting Soul Silver, Borderlands, and Heavy Rain this year, but that could change depending on if I get a job, or not, and try to get an arcade 360 for reach, and halo 3.
Oh, nvm. It must've been a rhetorical question.
I think 2010 is going to be the first year that we really see the 360 and PS3 go head to head with each other. With last years terrible 360 line up and the ever blossoming ps3 line up, I think this will be the make or break year for either side. MS's chance to show us what the 360s still got left, and to see just how far the PS3 still has to go.
While I know both systems will do well I'll have to give it to the PS3. And as for hardcore gamers, SONY will defintiely take care of them with both normal games and motion sensing games. I have a feeling Natal is going to be 90% casual, 10% hardcore. SONY will probably 50/50.
It would be funny if Nintendo suddenly steals all the fame this year.
