It appears as though Epic blocks accounts of users who buy too many games too quickly. The company stated it was part of its attempts to stop fraud.
Sony has launched the PSN Store "PlayStation Indies" sale this May 15, and this one is full of smaller titles at a discounted rate.
Microsoft is pushing for no "red line" for what games could come to PlayStation, and it all revolves around Satya Nadella and CFO Amy Hood's plans to increase every department's margins.
"The plan to move Xbox games to other platforms is codenamed "Latitude" internally, and I know there's debate and unease at Microsoft about whether or not this is a good idea. More upcoming Microsoft-owned games slated for PlayStation are already being developed. At least for now, they're potentially obvious games you'd most likely expect. And yes, while it's true Microsoft is a prolific publisher on PlayStation already, it has typically revolved around specific franchises like Minecraft. From what I've heard, Microsoft is pushing for no "red line" for what games could come to PlayStation, and it all revolves around Satya Nadella and CFO Amy Hood's mandate to increase every department's margins.

Yeah, they are going to kill Xbox hardware.
i think it will kill off the xbox brand. windows will be fine.
but there is and would be a chance that xbox might be killed off in the future. if they fail to make the money they put in. imo.

Forza and Starfield next?
In the words of Phil Spencer when he was talking about Nintendo last year
“It's just taking a long time for Microsoft to see that their future exists off of their own hardware"
Epic Games is facing a $1.2 million fine by the Netherlands Authority for Consumers and Markets over "unfair practices" in the Fortnite shop.
It might be cheaper to simply pay the fine. Fighting said fine could cost millions due to court and lawyer fees. Fortnite generates well over a 100 million in each month, so Epic has plenty of cash.
I'd fight back too. These are kinda meaningless reasons to fine someone like really for THAT. It's like they just wanted to make money or something.
So consumers are punished for making legit purchases. I'm sure people would love to buy multiple games at once, yet the store doesn't even have a f**king shopping cart. You must make one purchase at a time. What a f**king joke. Add in the fact that China is known for the worst security in the world, so in a way this makes me very worried what would happen when they do add a shopping cart.
Buying games in large quantities being banned an attempt to stop fraud.
Hmm so you're admitting now your service is easy to hi-jack Epic?you don't say?
Guess this is what you get for trying to outright buy customers rather than earn them through good will and service.
I also don't see the sale prices that include the $10 off anymore. I did grab one thing before the prices reverted, but this whole sale has been one huge cluster.
Imagine being kicked out of gamespot for buying "too many games"? Teh future is digital!!!
