PlayStation's VR headset won't succeed if Sony doesn't help it.
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.

A new patent recently published by Sony wants to gather biometric data of gamers to track whether one is being harassed using AI tools.
I hope this is one of those patents that never comes to fruition.
I already dislike the fact you can pay a significant amount for a online service buy associated games and content on said service and get banned from that service over potentially a misunderstanding the bans are already handed out for flimsy reasons
I'd rather see money invested in a ban that simply removes the offensive players ability to communicate with unknown players allow them to continue party chats with friends but not with Joe blow on cod.
Take my social security and bank account numbers too! Here’s a picture of my wife and our address.
At this rate I feel Sony will eventually sell a room to play games in it where they can monitor your every breath
I want them to censor erotic content by measuring my groin temperature so i dont get too distracted while playing black ops 2.
Terrible idea. Not only do I not consent to providing my biometric data, the potential for mishandling biometric data is almost a certainty. Positive stress and negative stress can produce similar changes in biometrics. Interpreting the precise emotion a person is feeling is not only invasive but could be easily misconstrued. I hope this never comes to fruition.
Sorry, buddy. Story after story on N4G keeps showing games coming to PSVR2. Quoting old Bloomberg rumors about the stop in production doesn't make it so.
It's rumored that there will be PC support, I think that's a great direction but has it been confirmed.
So YOU don't use your PSVR2. OK. That doesn't mean anything for the rest of us who do. What are they doing wrong?
Not hand delivering sales reports to your inbox?
Most sales are always estimates. I haven't seen many stories that show otherwise.
#1 price (Lower the price your wired also I need to buy a $399 console your competition once again has you beat)
#2 Games (I want some AAA 1st party games to make me choose you over the oculous)
#3 Guarantee (as a customer I want a guarantee from you that this product will be supported for years to come with apps,games,attachments...
PlayStation just needed to make at least 10 AAA games that are exclusive to PSVR 2 and advertise it which Sony doesn't realize can be done now by just sponsoring streamers on twitch and youtube with the product
Sony should throw some money Valve's way and get Half-Life: Alyx on the PSVR2
