At Ghent University in Belgium, no longer do students learn, they just cause sexually based problems! Read on to find out why…
Microsoft just posted the third quarter of its 2024 fiscal financial results. The software maker made $61.9 billion in revenue and a net income of $21.9 billion during Q3. Revenue is up 17 percent, and net income has increased by 20 percent.
Xbox content + services up 62% while hardware down 31%... seems about right with the way they tout you don't need the hardware to play. People can play on their phones or smart tv or other means. I don't hardly play on my consoles directly since getting devices like the logitech g-cloud and ps portal. Which is to also say I have been playing more digital than physical because of these devices.
Too expensive hardware when others offer the same or more for less? Good work, Green Team.
"Despite some early successes for Xbox games on rival platforms, Xbox hardware is down by a massive 31 percent this quarter."
"Without Activision Blizzard, Microsoft’s overall gaming revenue would have actually declined this quarter."
"Xbox content and services would have only been up a single percent without Activision Blizzard..."
"It looks like next quarter is going to be a similar story for gaming at Microsoft, too."
That is crazy... so A/B/K is carrying the whole Xbox gaming.
Oh and Microsoft will be fine. Windows, Office and Cloud are growing with each pc purchase.
As of right now, there are no monopolies in the games industry, and for the sake of the medium as a whole, they never should either.
And yet the biggest tech companies in America are essentially that. They buy up all the small comps only to kill them off and steal what they have, and if they can't buy em they bleed them to death.
They buy IPs not talent. That's why these buyouts never work and the IPs die. Right now it's too expensive to develop games - but I expect that to shift maybe as AI tools can make it easier. The best games have been indie games for awhile as big developers fuck their ips to death with "games as a service" -
INDIE Live Expo, Japan’s premiere online digital showcase series , will debut never-before-seen games & content updates across more than 100 titles on May 25th.
My ex-girlfriend used to love Fable II, but got flustered when she would get swarmed by enemies, so I guess the study is correct!
New study also shows GIRLS CANT DRIVE!!! HAiyooo
Another waste of money on a pointless study.
Girls are too complicated for gaming.
this study is BS, I don't feel games are too complicated, and I game on demon souls, FF, MGS, Uncharted 2, Killzone 2, also I kick my bf's arse at soul calibur.
As for throwing the towel in my 200hrs session on FF13 says hi, still have to get that platinum but collecting every single item and weapon is so boring it's all grind no fun, yet i still keep on going every now and again in the hope that this may be the day i get that trophy
