Epic Games sheds 830 people due to 'spending way more money than we earn'

I suspect a lot of Epic's potential customers are like me, who have dozens of games in their Epic account but haven't spent one cent on any of them. Basically, Epic trained their customers to just wait for the free games instead of spending money.

Third Counter Strike game in the franchise.

I'm sure the board of directors is keen to buy any successful technology company and add it to Microsoft's portfolio. Heck, they would probably even be willing to buy Sony at the right price.

Steam Deck a 'stable target for a couple years' so no Steam Deck 2 for a while

Quoting: GuestI love my Deck but I do wonder just how many years it really has in it to stay relevant. It's a delicate balance between keeping a good hardware target and being able to actually handle games until the next, but I feel we're already seeing it at the end of its limit with newer releases, so a few years from now does seem a long way off.
I think it primarily depends on whether or not developers are willing to optimize their games for the Steam Deck.

We may see Counter-Strike 2 release next week

Another Valve announcement that isn't for Half-Life 3. :sad:

Microsoft leak shows Fallout 3 and Oblivion Remasters, DOOM Year Zero and more

Quoting: razing32I honestly wonder how that Fallout 3 remaster will look like.
Starfield and all the bugs I've seen so far doesn't make me hopeful.
Have you actually played Starfield, or just watched click-bait YouTube videos? Because my experience in over 40 hours of play is that it actually has very few significant bugs, and the graphics are often quite gorgeous.

It seems strange to me that driver developers have to make their drivers work with games instead of game developers making their games work with drivers.
