I don’t think I’ll jump back to PC but I look forward seeing SteamOS getting more traction. Windows really needs to get their act together.

I rented a car last weekend that had something similar to this and it didn’t work when I was wearing sunglasses. As soon as I put them on it said on the dashboard that I needed to take the sensor to service it or something along those lines

I think they changed it not long ago so you can play free to play games without the online subscription. Just like on PlayStation network. But paid online games you need to be subbed yes.

Not budget constrained gamers, which there are a lot of.

Another issue is that Xbox game discs this generation are 50GB while on PlayStation 5 they are 100GB. I think the reason for going with 50GB for games on the MS side was to remain compatible with the previous generation of consoles.

Gamepass devalued games in my opinion. If you “train” your user base to get used to not buy games they will. It also did not help they were almost giving Gamepass away for nothing. You could chain multiple offers and get like 3 years or mor

I read that when they designed the Xbox Series S and X they knew it was going to be difficult to lower prices down the road because wafer costs were increasing every year. Which is why they launched with 2 models from the get go, one cheape

Bungie is not a MS studio since 2007.

I think they mean on console, which has become increasingly difficult, there are a number of PS5s that can do it but that’s only because those were at older firmware versions as far as I know. The majority of the consoles are incapable of t

I would prefer a Studio if it does a decent enough job even if throttles a bit under load, way less power usage and noise than those GPUs plus the PC you need to put those in.

Problem is affording the ram…

Why? The specs and benchmarks will show the differences, there’s no marketing around that.

In the hopes of selling more consoles and that didn’t work. Not sure if you have seen the recent news but things are not looking great there. Gamepass is not making them a lot of money at all. Even after acquiring Activision their operating

Yes, even the Switch 2. Nobody escapes this.

I’d argue that Nadella has considered spinning off or even selling Xbox considering how it’s been going for them.

Suppliers have ceased to exist in the past decades for building up fabs to satisfy demand and by the time they went online prices cratered. I’d assume is even riskier and more expensive now.

This isn’t the 1st increase they do on these consoles.

And it isn’t the 1st time they increased it, also PlayStation. Microsoft said ram/storage increased prices 2.5x since late 25 and they expect it to increase another 2.5x by late 27.

I got a Mac Mini on Amazon in July 2025 for 575€, the exact model is currently 969€ in the Apple Store.

Yes, and seems they are only releasing the Pros and the foldable this year, and will release the base and e models in Spring.

by ErneX 4mo ago
Yeah I don’t think they will touch current models.

This is going to be the 1st increase of a series of increases. I don’t think this will ease in the next 2-3 years.

The new Xbox CEO said recently they are expecting storage prices to be 5x what they were late 2025 by late 2027. And that RAM should be similar. Anyone making hardware is having a rough time. Like Valve who had to release their new PC at ar

If anything they seem to be ones who managed to delay increasing prices more than the rest.

Those are next in line, it’s almost guaranteed.

We already nationalised the oil industry in 1976. You must be referring to something else. And who do you think was extracting oil these years there? Chevron is one of them.

We are geographically close and we always had good relations that were beneficial for both before these thugs came to power. The so called revolution just ruined Venezuela and caused the biggest exodus in the hemisphere. Maduro being captur

Man we were getting looted all these years, how else do you think we are now 240 billion in the hole and with 9 million Venezuelans spread all around the world?
