I hadn't even realized about this contest before getting the note :).
Thanks!

Congratulations... :(

Thanks Blades, and many thanks N4G.

I will be investing the money wisely into a 'bug-out' filled with all the necessary paraphernalia to survive the impending zombie apocalypse - there's a tonne of wish lists on amazon already compiled.

(I need to stop playing DayZ)

Congrats to the winners!

Congrats to all winners..

Thanks a ton N4G! This is great! Question for previous winners and/or Cat: How long is the wait usually for the prize email?

Congrats to all winners! :D

I'd give a shout-out to macdonagh's blog just for this quote:

"It's not that I hate people, but I feel a lot better when I'm not around them."

My wife pushed me out of the winning blog spot? Confounded woman! I think I will actually have to start writing again to put her back in her place......

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
