The Good Doctor Posted July 9, 2023 Author Share Posted July 9, 2023 Thanks guys. They do look nice, the specs are good, and money’s not really a big issue… but yeah, 500 GB is pretty weak storage to be the biggest they’ve got. * Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s not just for me; others will be playing it. Was looking at the Nintendo Switch first, but then got to thinking of the insane amount of options on Steam. But that 500 GB seems kinda limiting. * Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigBossBalrog Posted July 11, 2023 Share Posted July 11, 2023 Judge sided with Microsoft and just destroyed the FCA's case. The British body that was trying to block the acquisition announced five minutes ago there also pretty much withdrawing there case if Microsoft can give them a couple of bones. Seems like the Acitvison acquisition is FINALLY going through Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like the Acitvison acquisition is FINALLY going through From everything I’ve heard, that was pretty much inevitable. Activision is big, but the industry is so huge and competitive that this is still miles away from constituting anything resembling a monopoly. * Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like the Acitvison acquisition is FINALLY going through What I heard basically is that Sony is winning the console wars anyway, they have the most bought systems, they’ve also run PS exclusive for the last decade without a hint of eventually releasing for all platforms and that basically way they got sided against. The biggest console manufacturer that either owns or has exclusive deals crying because their 3rd place competitors are acquiring market value to compete isn’t enough for the courts to step in 1 Fuck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The console wars are ancient history now anyway. It’s just pretend fighting between consumers with weird corporate loyalties. Microsoft’s chief aim in the industry long ago shifted from hardware to software. They couldn’t care less if you have an Xbox or a PC, as long as you’re using Windows or Gamepass. It’s why they now push for cross-platform gaming. Sony has released their exclusivity on several big PlayStation IPs to the PC market in recent years. Too much money was being left on the table, I guess. But yeah, they sell a lot of systems overseas, and still control enough of the game market that the idea of them calling their rivals a monopoly is pretty laughable. Though I can’t say I blame them for trying. Even a slight chance to retain CoD sales alone is probably worth the legal fees. 1 * Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Traveling south from the Gilded Vale will introduce you to a third companion who is really great.
