I don’t think it’s a scam or a fraud (legally), but it’s really an undercooked assistant that is $170 too much.

I think that CZ has something, but eventually we will have to wait and let it cook, to check how the company (and maybe the device) are entangled with cryptos.

Analysts said it would sell around 350,000 units, so that’s below expectations of what Apple expected by shipping 800,000 units.

A flop would have been <100,000.

Either way, I think that Apple expected this and they were preparing for an update on 2025 if things go really well, but it didn’t. Whatever units have in the oven, they will probably be used for a Vision Non-Pro.

Even then, they will have it rough. Current VR headsets are cheap enough and good enough. It feels like the iPhone came 2 years after Android came to the market.

There are few games that define a genre, transforming them into games for history books, and that’s Super Metroid. It refined the exploration-by-abilities genre we know now as “Metroidvania”, much like Dead Souls defined the “Souls” genre, and so forth.

On the other hand, it also had it lows. Like that entry you don’t talk about that we hope someday is declared non-canon and all copies destroyed by spontaneous combustion.

I'm on the same boat, as the Battle Pass was already becoming stale. I hope this empowers more creative ways to get my daily dosis of dopamine in the game, without breaking the bank.

Those Arcanas though, they look sick but I would never buy one. Once you past the FOMO you really don't give a crap.

Yeah, but the writing was on the wall when it came to Xbox Game Pass a few months later. If Microsoft deal was better than burning its sales, then that was it.

Also, there was some other rumors that the sequel wasn’t green lit immediately since the sales of the first game didn’t meet EA expectations. Who knows it that can be attributed to missing Halloween and holidays.

I think Dead Space 2 remake will never come. Motive is working on the next BF and the Iron Man game, that look like safer investments than a sequel of a game that failed commercially (in their books).

Is part of Game Pass Ultimate. I don’t know which tier, if any, but it is.

There is little reason for subscribing when Xbox Game Pass Ultimate is closer in price. There are EA games for free but once you played all relevant games, you’re done. There are discount on the Xbox Store for some EA games.

And they better sty that way for a while. More acquisitions will bring debt that will probably be gambled on, instead of trying to stabilize their portfolio.

The only ones who won with Embracer buying spree were studio owners and execs with their bonuses.

Saved you a click. Signal boosting a site for jobs postings.

Well, making news for Geoff not tweeting something is already click bait.

Given the transition window, I can guess Control 2 will be ready for 2025.

It should be minimal. I think it’s more about the broad appeal, focused marketing, and the good quality of the releases. You got Persona on Xbox, that’s brings people in.

I’m eager to check the calendar of Japanese games for this year.i don’t know if they blow up all cartridges in January or there is more to come.
