Dmack796358d ago

not yet. I'm glad to see Ratchet and Clank up in the top 10 for PS3. :)

Korosuke6358d ago

Woohoo, PC games are still on the top charts.

InMyOpinion6358d ago

People seem to be very interested in the Dutch charts, but not the Swedish. I do wonder why.

Rayko6358d ago

Because Sweden is a small country and noone really cares about game charts from a little country like Sweden.I live in Sweden myself (Stockholm) and it is a nice little town with small population and a lot of greenery.

InMyOpinion6358d ago

I'm from Sweden too. I was just being sarcastic about the fact that people swarm around news concerning the Dutch charts.

Holland är ju ett obetydligt litet jävla skitland, precis som Sverige ;)

Salvadore6358d ago

We Swedes are all for GH, Singstar and the very popular WOW.

PopEmUp6358d ago

Incredibly Ambitious PSP Games That Pushed Handheld Gaming

The PSP was ambition personified, so much so that it’s kinda wild to look back and realise what exactly Sony cooked up in 2004.

I still play my PSP. Sadly the UMD drive has stopped working, but I modded it to still be able to play my games (and then some). Such a great little portable.

I appreciate the article but this guy must be living in a delayed universe, The reputation was ruined 10+ years ago and hasn't recovered since. As such people have voted with their wallets and stopped buying Xbox products in large amounts.

Their reputation was lost way before that. From the moment Microsoft said they entering the console business, we all knew it would be a downgrade.

That's not true at all the OG Xbox had drive and they had hunger and they wanted to accomplish something. It was a great console.

they didn't quite reach their goals and they gave up prematurely because they couldn't win. It was halfway through the Xbox 360 when kinect released and that was when they lost their way and we're a rudderless ship ever since

Agent751d 5h ago

In all fairness, Xbox had some great games with online play, Xbox 360 even better. Xbox consoles started to die with the Xbox One. Ditch consoles for the PC and PS.

YourMommySpoils21h ago

@Bathyj hard to compute ay. Xbox was never better than a PC and that's all they ever were. A demo box. Doesn't get more true than that.

What reputation is this threatening exactly? 😂

Lightning772d ago

Rumors of Turn 10 being either shut down or hit with massive lay offs is on the horizon.

The issue is MS will do something right only to do something very, very wrong. And they do this what seems calculative at this point. Doesn't matter what they do the Investors and leadership want more and more money an endless bottomless pit of purr insatiable greed. A company that acts like it's broke or hurting is what really, really infuriates me. They've surpassed apple again well over 3 trillion who acts like they're a million dollar company is fk stupid. Pivots and changes for no reason and can't do things for more than a year with out a pivot or changing their metrics.

That would be really bad since Phil just hyped up next year as a big Forza year at Summer Game Fest.

@christopher: “ That would be really bad since Phil just hyped up next year as a big Forza year at Summer Game Fest”
The key word big can be ether good or bad 🤷🏿only time can tell

DarXyde1d 23h ago

First Forza being generated entirely via AI?

If any company would do it, it'd be them.

Nacho_Z1d 13h ago

Isn't the point that it's irrelevant how profitable MS is, the suits have decided it's time that the Xbox division started making them money. Hence the layoffs, the pivots.

hennessey861d 8h ago

That wouldn't surprise me, as motorsport has been heading down hill since the great number 4. Where as playground have consistently put out better games. I think the two studios will be merged under playground games banner.
