TBA HELL

Ru|5861d ago |Blog Post|0|

<strong>C</strong> onsidering the fact that you are reading this blog means your a Gamer who happens to read Gaming news, am I right?

Well that is the whole reason for naming this blog TBA Hell!
Let me explain...

We are what some would refer to as "Gaming Enthusiast!" You might be asking yourself what exactly a Gaming Enthusiast is and trust me don't bother trying to figure that out, cause most likely it don't matter anyhow. There are a dozen different answers to that Question and they never truly can categorize everyone into a neat package.
 None the less since you are one apparently, So you can or soon will understand the treachery of being such.
 Viewing online screen-shots/trailers/game-pla y video's/previews or even slash opinion oriented articles well before your fanatically crazed hands set touch to the retail game or even have any idea of when you might have the chance of getting it is <strong>HELL, TBA HELL </strong>to what I assume, the vast Gamer population.
 Is this a curse that  plagues us "Gaming Enthusiast's?" or Perhaps a Gift?
I'll let you decide that one, but one things for sure in the world of Release Dates
The way they go about releasing such plans hasn't and isn' t changing.

 One of the more annoying and persistent problems with release dates is Online Retailers. Some of you might already be aware of this, but sometimes... Retailers like to add release dates to there online listing so they can generate pre-order business! I know, I know... Who would do such a thing right? Well as it turn's out money is important to these guys for whatever reason and they can take advantage of your pre-order money to make more money or fluff there profits margins.
 But  I must <em>stress </em>the fact that these retailers can quite often receive and list the Real Confirmed Release Date before anyone else in the media gets the word. This is due to publisher priorities I can only assume and once again, I believe its guided by the green stuff that makes the world go something something!
 There are many more reasons why Release Dates remain TBA for what seems to be forever and I will do my best to help clarify what other Factors come into play in those regards in the future!

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.

Jingsing11d ago

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….

S2Killinit11d ago

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

Jingsing11d 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.

Tanktopmaster9211d 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
