Owners of PCs with Intel's 965 chipsets can finally download drivers that will immediately improve the performance of games running on those systems. The 965 chipsets were supposed to be a dramatic step forward for integrated graphics performance.
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."
lmao at seeing Crysis and Intel Integrated Graphics together. DX10 and Vista is probably just a waste of time for Intel.
before that one of the main things Vista was going to do was force PC makers to stop puting crappy integrated GPUs into PCs. SO most average PC's would be more PC game friendly.
This is to help the "Gaames for Windows" push.
Granted these PCs won't be Crysis capable. They will have better GPUs though.
i was choosing between two laptops for homeschooling and i chose one with an nvidia 6150 inside, and i ALMOST got one with this chipset for about the same price but it didnt support certain things important to me at the time. darnit!
this could be a major catalyst in pc gaming for the general population. this does make it quite a bit more accessible, but who knows?
WOw now 965G chipset owners can proudly play games in 5fps from 2fps.
Edit: I dint attack you or anyone owning mobos with integrated intel chipset. My sarcasim ws directed at the news. I till sometime back had 7950GX2 1gb VGA which burned or conked off and had to send it for warranty. So inbetween i picked up 7100 nvidia card to atleast use it till the old card is replaced. I tried playing BF2142 stupidily at the same settings but i ws getting less than 1fps so lowered most of the settings to almost min level, the game managed 15-20 fps at the most. SO you think 7100 chipset is less than 965G ? YOu think anyone will be able to run a game made out in last 2 years to even run on 965 chipset? IF it is able to play HD videos (720 or 1080p) i'll be happy for the owners but forget gaming other than playing solitare.
