Microsoft is a criminal organisation that thrives on corruption (no real action being taken with respect to anti trust proceedings is still relevant today).

Crime isn't only about someone stealing your phone, extracting many billion of dollars via oligopolistic methods of limiting competition and leaving people with no other option than to use their products (irrespective of price or feature considerations) is also criminal activity.

They are not going to fight the US administratorion on this.

He is done with releasing good games, he is not done releasing trash.

Well deserved!

It's one of the few games where I truly felt I was in an alien/different (sci-fi) world.

Congrats on the 365!

I mostly play indie games, so it's fun to see some of the bigger titles and get some brief commentary!

It's almost comical how incompetent the Xbox BU's executive management has been for 10+ years.

This analysis immediately identified the use of several elements protected by copyright, including parts of the game's storyline, mechanics, and UI (User Interface).

The UI is protected by copyright?

Sounds like bullshit. DDS's publisher should focus on improving DDS2. I was considering getting it, but decided against it when I read the reviews (many bugs, subpar updates).

The piece about Mac makes no sense. That's purely a result of Apple's decision to drop support. In general, if you are interested in older games, MacOS is not a viable platform.

It feels like a complete bloodbath with the job situation in the gaming industry in the west.

The worst thing is none of the executives are getting fired (in a proper manner, no golden parachutes and clawbacks on any stock based compensation).

Huffman is just another american technology oligarch. It is in his interest to spread corruption and undermine rule of law.

Didn't he get all fucked up and miserable from all that money from the sale to MS?

From the translation of the claims, they appear to describe Pokémon-style activities, with ‘191 focused on the act of throwing a ball at characters in a field, ‘117 tied to aiming, and ‘390 on riding characters.

If this is indeed the case, the lawsuit is clearly illegitimate (in the real sense, can't speak for legal nuances). Not surprising.

Whatever the topic, it's best to avoid the opinions of videogame streamers/youtubers on matters outside of videogames.

I somehow doubt Hoyt has ever lived in Israel/Palestine, speaks Hebrew or Arabic or has ever read the Talmud, Bible or Quaran (even partially, but in a serious manner; one that provides some context on the "styling" of Abrahamic religious texts).

I haven't seen much of Hoyt's content, but the few clips I've seen seemed very low effort. If you can't even be bothered to make good content around videogames, you should definitely avoid narcissistic outbursts on serious matters.
