I sooo hate these fan boys who knows jack crap comming in here spewing their "CELL" bs. Just STFU already.

Anyway, AMD is hurting, that's for sure... nothing they haven't seen before though. Eventually they'll come around and only to get trounced again by Intel a year or two later but you know what, that's just fine by me, drives prices.

Intel + Nvidia FTW.

yea ati n amd are really slipn this past year and looks like they are not catchn up right now

Although, Intels C2D processors have been beating the hell out of AMDs dual and Quad core cpus but I still want AMD in the Arena. Otherwise if they're out then there will be less motivation for Intel to innovate. And all we'll be seeing would be slight clock speed jumps. Same goes for 360 and ps3 both should be there to keep the both rivals on their toes. Competition is good for the consumer, ultimately.

No surprise here - thats how the industry works between the two companies. First Intel with its Pentium, then AMD's Athlon pwns Pentium 4, and then Intel releases Core 2 Duo, and now we await AMD/ATI to release something more powerful... Thats exactly why you dont need to be brand loyal to any chipmaker, just buy the chip thats the best value on the market at the time (Core 2) for your pc needs, ya heard?

Even though I'll probably be going Intel with my next CPU purchase, I still think AMD has it's place. AMD pushed the 64bit market for years and was destroying Intel for a while. It's what made Intel do their homework for years and force them to bring the great Core Duo lineup we have now. Today, AMD is more of a value product. You can get some of their most high end products for under 160 dollars. They will compete with the E6400 and E6600 which typically sell for much more. I'd still probably use them for somebody wanting a gaming computer on a budget. (Same with ATI's 3850. Trails behind the 8800GT for only $179.) They're also more energy efficient, which is something businesses and anybody who hates their electric bill is to be worried about. AMD/ATI is a true money saver these days.

Tell me again how the multiplatform strategy was supposed to fix everything. Look at your results and compare them to Nintendo, which keeps thriving with exclusives. Your loyal fans are gone. And let’s not forget the pile of IPs you purchased only to let them rot.

The worst thing is this is down from last years numbers/expectations which was down from the previous years numbers/expectations. You think about how long “down” has been a consistent part of the communication and you realize those subscriptions are what’s holding that boat together. The price cut of gamespass is still a price raise in a string of price raises. They are trying to use players to offset the missing revenue. Now call of duty is out of gamespass, which is literally WHY they bought the company. To draw people to the subscription. They realized they missed a boatload of money and that wasn’t sustainable. Now you pay for it like you would have if they never bought the company… so why buy the company? Mind you those billions still need to be paid back. Yeah it gives you a chance to say we make the biggest FPS… but the internal conversations must be brutal at high level on topics that really matter. Like revenue. Profitability. And ROI for the shopping spree.

Is this like the 10th quarter in a row they're down 33% on hardware how is that even mathematically possible. You would think their mediocrity would Plateau
