particularly because the report is that subscriber growth for gamespass is slowing.  Reportedly PS5 has still outsold series x to date, despite a few months where Series X dominated, and now PS5 supply is ticking up.

I mean Nintendo is a game company.  Sony’s primary business might be games now...but that has a lot to do with their retreat from most aspects of consumer electronics.  Sony makes TVs, and great headphones and other sound systems, but never really became a serious mobile player and are there just not remotely…

Tencent wasnt ready at the time.  Google or Amazon.  I mean in other timelines, Disney recognizes that they should be controlling their IP in all mediums and properly invested in gaming studios in the 80s and the 90s.  I contiuously find it amazing that companies that owned a bunch of IP, dont have their own game…

I dont know, I think Sony does a fairly decent job when you realize they dont have the spare billions that MS does, that Sony’s biggest profit center is its games division...and that they had a massive commitment to exclusives and single player titles from the ps3 that they kept onto ps4 and now ps5.  Its only now…

I recall reading somewhere that the xbox division was net in the red until like 2011.  Like that is nuts, they made a ten year investment and there is probably a good argument that MS could have been spending that money on a better investment into the mobile market.  Google gives out android for free then harvests…

Im a 41 year old white male, home owner, with a professional degree, making six figures.  The minute he let Kanye back on, I left twitter.  I have no delusion that I will cause anyone else to follow me (i dont know how many followers I had, but a dozen or so...maybe.  Mostly friends and such.  However, I am a prime…

but like a grade inflated C- right?  Like 30 years ago that would have been a D or D - at best.

i dont know, they do a lot of simping for Trump.  The real debate is who is the bigger dbag.  Trump is probably the king, but Musk seems intent on having trump hold his hair plugs.

My cousin makes a solid argument that gamergate was really the coming out party for the alt right.  They figured out how to coalesce their user boards and target things.  They are behind most online down voting of any movie with female or minority lead.  Its how you end up with some marvel movie with a user score of…

Yeah, I know actively root for them to announce movies where they change the gender, or sexual identity, or race of a long running character just to watch grown men melt down about fictional characters.  

Its actually scary to thnk about how much damage the right could be doing if so much of the money that comes there way wasnt just grifted. Im just beyond disgusted with the US right now. How the fuck is the Georgia Senate race remotely close. Walker cant speak at trumps level of incoherence.....but he has an R next to…

Doesnt Tencent or some other chinese dev own a big chunk of Plat now?

just fuck her.  Pretty sure she can kiss voice acting in gaming goodbye now.

...being bad at a game isnt a disability.  Full stop.  

Where I live I dont know a single supermarket that carries select.  I have never even seen it on a shelf.  Its all choice, except wegmans, whole foods, and a few specialty shops stocking prime.

That seems to be changing.  They are sitting up on sites a lot longer now.

I dont call it corporate greed. Corporations literally have no wants or desires...at all. Its 1%ers greed. The Csuite, the board, and the major shareholders (and owners of the hedge funds and investment groups that own the shares) should be named and shamed. Corporations are literally paper entities. They are formed…

Yep. Been saying this for years. I payed at 59.99 or more for a lot of N64 games....25 years ago. I got Final Fantasy III (6) for SNES...it cost $80...in 1994. That is like 135 now. Hell anyone ever get a NES game like Kung Fu? Probably cost at least $40 bucks in 1988, that is like $100 now. You can beat that game in…

Why would they.  The new major owner of CNN’s parent is a huge republican donor.  MSNBC is owned by Comcast, so they will chime in on social issues, but barely pay lip service to root causes of inequality.  Fox...well they get talking points from the GOP and work with them in lockstep.

to be fair there is a contribution from major supply chain disruption during Covid exacerbated by continued rolling lock downs in China (worlds factory), rising fuel (though the Saudis have been contributing to boost their bottom line) and grain prices due to the war in Ukraine, and a massive demographic shift going…
