About a month ago I decided to finally spend my money and buy Modnation Racers. I loved making tracks in the demo and thought the racing was better than other kart racers, and most of all I had fun with what little the demo offered. The first week I played Modnation, I loved it. I didn't really care about the horrendous load times, as long as I got to do what I wanted to do. And after a week of having fun with it, I took a break with it to play through Red Dead Redemption. A couple weeks later I came back to Modnation, and I found out had flawed it really is. I tried playing through the rest of the career, which I didn't finish, so I could unlock everything, and then make my tracks with everything unlocked. But I can't, because the difficulty and cheating AI make this game totally unfun, which is the opposite of what a kart racer should be. And once you start getting frustrated you realize how long it takes to get from one thing to the next. And I can't have fun just making tracks, when half of all the cool objects are locked unless I beat those infuriating challenges in the career mode. I've been reading on the PS Blog that United Front Games (the devs) are working on a patch to fix the unacceptable load times and a new casual mode that makes the career slightly easier, and if they ever get it out, I will definitely go back to Modnation Racers, but until this game gets patched, it's staying right on my shelf while I play something more exciting.
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
The charity event will be streamed live from Gamescom in August.
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.
Does the fact that you aren't good enough to play this game justify a reason to write a blog about it?
I suggest you buy Demon's Souls if you want an easy game (Shhhhh)
