Microsoft stock just hit a new 10-year low.
Analysts cut forecasts for Microsoft, citing "downward pressure on PC unit sales.".
Video games are no longer just a simple past time. Today's games are evolving into true works of art. Offering intriguing narratives, cinematic setpieces, and profound messages, games can entertain us for hundreds of hours.
I never got around to mass effect - I’m skeptical that it would hold up if I were to try it now
EK Cooling allegedly has slipped itself into a hot soup of seemingly endless financial woes, where it has not paid its staff, suppliers, and contractors for many months as the company is facing liquidity problems and a surplus of inventory left unsold, stuck in the warehouse for a more extended period. Gamers Nexus investigated these claims made by former and current personnel, where he found trails of unpaid bills lasting as long as three to four months and unpaid raises that accumulated for almost a year.
EK Water Blocks has two entities—a Slovenian-based headquarters and a US-based subsidiary, EK Cooling Solutions. Steve narrated the series of events in detail, stating that the company was reportedly irresponsible and negligent regarding payment. Consequently, partners and employees are forced to share the burden of alleged mismanagement. It all begins with its extensive range of products, leading to a surplus of goods. EK has over 230 water blocks, 40 liquid cooling kits, 85 reservoirs, 40 pumps, 73 radiators, and 212 miscellaneous accessories.
Yes this is not about video games directly but indirectly this will impact the pc gaming/workstation space hard.
This company is massive one of two in the water cool space so if it goes poof then thousands out there have no spare parts or half built computers.
SO yeah i know not about a video game but think of it as amd leaving the pc space but this is ekwb that could be leaving water cooling in the pc space
Jayz2cents a supporter of there products also has issues

Originally launched in 2011, El Shaddai: Ascension of the Metatron is coming to Nintendo Switch, so It's time to look back at the original.
Still have my ps3 copies. Bought it at launch and another one when I found it cheap and in perfect condition about 10 years ago. I wouldn’t buy it on Switch but if they made a PS5 version I would. I still have one of my PS3 Fats hooked up so good to go either way.
Id play it again on the switch. I wished my 360 version was bc but this is still a good way to play.
This could spell major trouble for microsoft, especially since it comes after multiple failures like Zune, the Yahoo bid, Vista failure, Xbox 1 failure, the RROD, the Xbox Live downtime failure, and the 360 failure to gain market share worldwide vs the PS3 (although it's doing ok in one country, the US).
I wouldn't be surprised if they try to cut their losses by giving up on gaming much sooner than expected. After all, they were outsold by the PS3 last year and this year too, and the 360 is basically dead or dying everywhere except in the US.
If MS doesn't intend to stop with gaming, why was there only one AAA exclusive this year (Gears 2) compared to so many on PS3 (MGS4, LBP, Resistance 2, Wipeout...). Why did they close studios like Ensemble too ? They need to cut their losses right now.
....just wait for fanboys spinning this story as if they know what it is all about.
Didn't they just say they were recession proof?
Check your 401k, ALL stocks are down. We are in a recession gang.
-Death
everything is down - the economy is crashing but mark my words the one company to pull out of this whole thing will be sony because M$ will abanden their gaming market before it costs them alot of money and nintendo has already abandend theirs - to be honest i dont know how the wii is still selling without any games i would pick a 360 over a wii but im happy with my ps3 - and another thing sony will stay with the ps3 for as long as it takes
