Must possess excellent verbal communication skills and ability to work as a team.

Anyone who has searched for a job has heard the cliche in one form or another. I'd like to start of by giving a shout out to fellow xbox live players: RK0 LegendKilla, Enyce24, and Doug Y Funnie. Up until then I, like most of us, have this image of playing online as just some loud trash talking palooza that you had to endure in order to get even the slightest satisfaction in getting a game in. Then once the game commences, the fear of betrayals(From the Halo days) due to pre-game trash talking always lingered in the back of your head. Not to mention possible saboteur that may be lurking on your squad. This was not the case on Monday night. No, this night was different. The lights were dimmed, headset cranked and although there was tons of trash talking, non of the usual shenanigans occurred. No one complained about being first in kill death and the rest of his/her "team" bringing him down. Needless to say, I had probably the best outing thus far in Modern Warfare 2. I am fully aware its a competition and that I may just suck. However, isn't this what online team gaming was meant to be? It is called team-deathmatch is it not? Accolades and kudos are definitely deserving to those beasts on the team. But there is just a certain satisfaction in being part of a winning team in which everyone played a roll and did it well. I do care deeply about my kill death ratio, and leveling up. Last I checked, you also get points for winning. So I salute you one man army killers out there that help us civilian players in this game or any other team game for that matter.

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….

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.

Tanktopmaster9213d 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
