It sold better than I thought it would. Congratulations Battlefield Studios.
This is shocking news. His passing will definitely leave a void in the industry. My condolences to his family.
Microsoft. When it rains, it pours. This may be a reflection of the current culture of the company, where the top is pressuring the people below them for results, and it goes down the chain. This may be why certain rash decisions get put forward without thinking of the consequences, because they are just trying to keep their head above water day by day.
The other spin can be that they expect AMD to do all the work because they are not making a traditional console this time ...
It's nice to see fighterz get some love after they led us all to believe they were done with the game.
A happy ending will delight me.
If the storage on the Switch 2 cart was too slow for Star Wars Outlaws, then it makes sense Assassin's Creed Shadows can't run on normal Switch 2 carts as well. Nintendo needs to find a way to make their carts as fast as an SSD at a reasonable cost.
I am someone who is often critical of Sony, but I do not believe they have done anything that warrants that type of punishment. I can't recall any anticonsumer or any actions they have done in the last 12 months that are detrimental to the gaming industry. The same can't be said about their competitors, who are out there setting dangerous precedents.
This is not a console vs pc issue as consoles are also impacted by this.
On a side note, I still see Pentiment on PSN and Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire Ultimate on both Xbox and PSN.
All they had to do was to nurture talent and tell their developers to aim for game of the year. If they did that, they would be in a much better position now with less money spent.
Bad leadership. They were not interested in putting out game of the year titles, they were more interested in releasing less ambitious titles on gamepass and in that department they still under delivered.
It is a shame. Feature wise, the Xbox Series X is the best console they have ever released but because of bad leadership, the console could not reach it's fullest potential.
At this point, i want them to put the version of windows they have for the rog ally x on the series x so people who are savvy enough can find some enjoyment on other storefronts.
A 50% increase to ultimate. My word.
They have revamped the service to add more value by promising 75 day one games per year, fortnite battle pass and 1000 vbucks per month, few other benefits for the popular live service games, increased Microsoft rewards for playing games, and 1440p streaming quality for cloud gaming.
I am not sure how I feel about this, you would basically have to be the hardcore of the hardest core gamer to have enough time to play th...
At first I thought the change in the storage printed on the box was a change in the marketing of the console. I thought the console was still 1tb but they opted to change the storage to reflect the available storage size but that is not the case. They actually reduced the storage.
This is good for the European gamers who haven't moved to the current gen as yet. We are seeing some unprecedented activities this gen with numerous price increases. I think Meta is to blame when they started things off by increasing the price of their Meta Quest 2 headset back in 2023. This action shocked many people, as hardware always went down in price and not up.
It didn't take long for the 3 console players to see Meta still continuing to sell their headsets d...
It is sad what happened to this guy. What I don't understand is that he was smart enough to know how to mod Nintendo hardware and he even monetized that skill yet he chose not to hire a lawyer. Madness.
What would the price have been if there weren't any tariffs to worry about?
You just admitted in your own post that the intention of the patent is to prevent competing games in the creature capture genre. Imagine if id Software had put out a patent for making FPS games after Doom, what would the gaming industry be like today.
Nintendo is simply trying their hardest not to compete with similar games now that other developers are starting to put their own spin on those games. They won't see a cent from me in the future.
I would like to see a 3rd party do a deep dive into what is causing the port to melt.
Nintendo has turned something that is universal and made it proprietary to improve their bottom line. What we need to find out is if this is the cause of ports melting with non Nintendo chargers.
For all my other devices I use the chargers interchangeably with no issues. Some devices don't even bother to include a charger because the standard is so universal.
You guys need to stop supporting Nintendo. They have gotten arrogant with anti consumer practices and is now actively working to stop competition by creating patents for widely used gaming mechanics.
@Hypertension140 The Xbox Series X stores the quick resume data in the temporary files on the SSD. I could not find any mention of it online, but I believe the PS5 buffers those recordings in the temporary files on the SSD prior to the user storing the recording.
If the tradeoff is to have recordings needing a thumb drive to record gameplay for 1 hr or more, then I believe the ability to have quick resume would be better for the gamers as long as they give the user the abi...
