EA's latest social media gaffe mocks single-player games; something that is quite ironic given the circumstances and the games they are making.
Steam is changing its refund policy, but you probably won’t be affected
Should have happened a long time ago. People wanting refunds after 50 hours in game.
Daily reminder that 'TheGamer' is a corporate-generated, anti-gamer, anti-consumer, clickbait web site. They are mostly A.I. generated articles that villainize gamers. They provide nothing positive and actively try to provoke and divide the community through extreme view points and politics. Do not give them any clicks.
Only scumbags? As if people don't play their games on console put in the most amount of hours and return it to GameStop and trade it in for another game. But also how many people are actually do this? And what games have been allowed to be refunded?
Outriders developer People Can Fly's next game has been canceled after its publishing agreement with Take-Two Interactive fell through.
"the capital group of PCF Group S.A."
If you're getting funding from a group that needs two different ways of Acronyming itself, things will not go the way you want them to.
Outriders was crap. They slapped that game together and threw in a loot system to get players' attention. This game was absolutely jank and the always online nonsense made it stutter like crazy. People Can't Optimize.
I liked Outriders but I could see where the artistic vision was compromised. The way the industry is now, it wouldn't surprise me that upper management would scrap something that didn't pull in money via gaas, mts, or other means.
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.
I just hate EA I want to see the Dead Space remake only franchise I am looking forward to hope they don't botch it up. Everything else is either wash, rinse, repeat, like their sports games or the titles suck like 2042 and Anthem. Only other game I bought that had an EA logo on it was the ME remaster for PS4. As for the new ME game I want it to be good but I have will have to look over that game well before I commit to buying it.
Probably just one of their idiotic pr ppl that only think of business and don't know anything about video games but it does sum up ea lol. I kinda wish they'd sell off respawn but hey, seems vince and respawn have been doing fine...for the moment.
With Dead Space and the Jedi Fallen Order sequel coming, who thought that tweet would be a good idea 🤦♂️
EA don't troll because your rep in my opinion doesn't warrant squat rn.
This whole stupid story has so many layers to it. I thought it'd peak at EA's self ownage, but I underestimated games media. Nothing exemplifies their professional standards better than this:
"The developers behind Sea of Thieves shared this tweet. While I don’t understand the comment directly, it’s clearly a dig at EA."
