Remember when all three of these companies used to be great 20 years ago? Such a shame how far they’ve fallen.

I’m playing Beyond Good & Evil on GameCube for the first time, and this game is an absolute gem. Makes me miss how great Ubisoft used to be. They started turning into hostile trash somewhere around ten years ago.

Microsoft was always cold blooded, you probably just weren't aware of it. Microsoft lost an anti-trust case and was almost broken up in 1998 for its practices, but appealed and came to an agreement with the government.

And they are doing the exact same thing with Edge that they were taken to court for over Windows Explorer. They have been and always will be a shit company.
