The ceo makes $96.5 million a year. Where’s the “accountability margins” when that was decided? These companies and their decisions really show how stupid the stock market really is. At least that’s the way I see it being uneducated from the outside

They are asking the impossible. If they refuse to take any risks on new titles they will not have breakout hits like they are wanting. They have enough studios that you can have some stinker releases that get offset by the surprise hits.

Ah the gamers will pay for the AI data centers!

We made decisions that have absolutely decimated the value of our brand. Now go make money from the ashes!

Soooooo they've crippled their game making divisions with layoffs that obliterated employee morale so that they had more money to throw at AI, and now they're demanding that this same section of the company offset even more of their AI costs because it's one of the few parts of the company that actually makes money?

Reminds me of how Hasbro is milking WotC for all they're worth while destroying faith in the brand.

Xbox division: making money

Microsoft execs:

lol MS customers are going to get screwed. They’re making Sony and Nintendo look pro-consumer.

just kill xbox already man

Let the enshittification commence!

That's gonna be hard, hell I won't even unpack my X, it's not worth playing

Number must go up!
