...INDUSTRY EPIDEMIC...

Premiering a new feature on D-GU.com, we analyze the issues that plague gaming today. Our first issue of Industry Epidemic, we explore FANBOYISM.

"Every Industry has it's pros and cons; the good, the bad and the ugly.
Ours industry is no different. But at least in our line of work, some adversities are necessary while others are just ridiculous and childish. We work in an industry that has grown up with some of us.
Children of the 70's and 80's should know what I mean. Granted, there will always be children games and child gamers, that's the nature of the business."

Fanboyism?!.
I dont like you because you dont like what i like and you dont like me because i dont like what you like and i dont care what you like as long as you like that i like what i like. You shouldnt like what you like because i dont like what you like and i dont want to like what you like because i wouldnt like it. I dont care that you dont like what i like because whether you like it or not- i like liking what i like.

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.

Once they re-evaluate exclusive all will be fine….

S2Killinit18d ago

Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.

Jingsing18d ago

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.

Tanktopmaster9218d ago

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
