FWC:Record Market Share for the Week Ending October 5th.
Fueled by the record sales of Iron Man, revenue was up over 145% to $26.8M, while the 13% market share set a new record for the top 20 Blu-ray versus DVD.
The per title market share chart shows that Iron Man sold over 17% of its units on Blu-ray - a great achievement for a title that sells to casual DVD buyers.
Universal's Ultimate Unrated Comedy Collection sold over 96% of its units on Blu-ray - of course, all three titles were new for Blu-ray, where only one was a new release for DVD.
Nvidia is allegedly testing GPU coolers to handle up to 600W for the 50 series, reigniting discussion of melting 16-pin connectors.
"They want you to believe the devs under them are super stoked to work generative AI into their processes," continued Gaider, "but I assure you what they took as excitement was really a veiled wail of despair not unlike the time that team was informed of their new 'really cool' live service mandate.".
I think anyone with some common sense knew this, im glad i don't support their games anymore, what a sh!t company.
I said this yesterday. AI isn't what we want when it comes to crafting artistry. Alas, these soulless corporate morons don't care about their work, only about cutting corners as much as possible.
Has the rapid growth of Xbox made the ship too heavy? Following the closures of Tango Gameworks, Arkane Austin, and Roundhouse, we explore what the future of Xbox could look like.
This ship was never meant to sail, this ship was made from the get go to sink as fast as possible. It almost feels that they want to lower the standards of quality in the industry so that they can fit in
I disagree, Xbox from the get go innovated and changed the industry. They did a lot of firsts and standardized a lot of others. It wasn’t till the beginning of the Xbox1 era that things started to go south.
Yep, although I’d argue it started going to shit when they tried to hock Kinect on their audience instead of continuing to invest in their studios and IPs. 2001-2010 Xbox was peak gaming, though.
@Stevonidas
I agree they never should have focused on it after the 360 era. But you do have to remember they were faked out by the huge volumes of Kinects sold. To quote info on Wikipedia, “Project Natal, It was first released on November 4, 2010, and would go on to sell eight million units in its first 60 days of availability.” So if your Xbox and see these huge sales on a peripheral where are you going to put some money? Criticism in hindsight is worthless…..if only we could all see our future. In other wards they had no way of knowing. Plus they had engagement numbers and a lot of signs pointed to people wanting it.
Their biggest mistake wasn’t the Kinect, but unlike Sony after the PS3 debacle. They didn’t double on down on exclusive good games. The other huge mistake was letting Call of Duty go to Sony.
Xbox has no soul and Phil has no confidence, and it's impossible to say either do when they killed Tango and Arkane Austin.
Everything they've said since has only made them look worse to a point that they're actually less competent than Embracer.
Whe you release something like the series S and expect it not to hurt your business model, and developers have to have parity with games. Then you know Microsoft don't care. Series s is the final nail that broke developers,
mainstream. This is good news. The more revenues Sony makes from movies, the more likely they are to reduce the price of Blu-Ray drives which means price cut for the PS3. The sooner the PS3 hits $299, the better.
By the end of next year DVD will be RIP-ed
well done SONY and BLU RAY and PS3
FUTURE IS BLU
FUTURE IS SONY

Best thing ive noticed about blu-ray is that the prices of discs have started to come down.
Iv seen recent titles for as little as £13 which is fantastic. Thats down from £20 this time last year.
The Dark Knight is going to PWN on blu-ray
