A magazine called PSM3 has an article related to PSP2 with supporting images of the portable gaming device. The image of the PSP2 looks like the leaked devkit images that were published by VG247 but the picture quality seems pretty sharp, neat and seems to have details as well.
Could this be real? Could this be fake? Only time will tell but till then, it's best to take this news with a grain of salt.
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" -
On Amazon, you can't get an RTX 4090 for less than this one from Gigabyte, which now offers great value after an eye-catching April deal.
well im sure there will be a few people who blindly believe this and post without even clicking on the link lol
..and I really love my Droid X. Very happy that its not out now...as I fear that my very powerful 'knee jerk' purchasing powers would take over.
Looks just like the blurry dev kit shots. If true, it looks more sturdy than the PSP.
The way the buttons and analog sticks are dug in would add validity to the rumors heard from IGN about them being somewhat "concaved".
Whatever. My rumor-squashing abilities were done after truly believing that the old "leaked PS3 Slim" footage from a store in Indonesia was 100% fake. I was shocked to find out that a small store in a foreign country actually got a hold of the Slim 4-5 months before it was even announced.
Its obviously FAKE!! Although I hope its real. I want a new NEXT-GEN PSP that can run games as beautiful as GoW3.
Frontline is the name of the section.
