The image which you show often reflect to you a lot.
Really.... what MS did:
- They closed one of the most damned succesfull gaming studios in the world (Ensemble), together with a lot of other more or less succesfull studios
- The games they give out those days are in general ports from consoles
- Windows sucks. If you want Windows to work OK, you need to know VERY well what you're doing, use tons of tools to fix giant holes in the security (since even patches from MS tends to create new leaks in the security) and have plenty of time to fix it.
So no, MS is doing a bit for PC, but not much
MicBenSte:- Windows sucks. If you want Windows to work OK, you need to know VERY well what you're doing, use tons of tools to fix giant holes in the security (since even patches from MS tends to create new leaks in the security) and have plenty of time to fix it.
That happens to every OS that is being released. Even the beloved MAC OS and Linux is not secure. They will always be bugs forever and ever and happily ever after.
i dont post much here but i read almost all the news. but this particular topic gave me some
interest to write a reply.
anyway, ARE YOU KIDDING ME DUDE?
microsoft used to do a lot more for pc until the xbox came out. then they focused on that and
closed some pc centric studios/games. gfwl has been out for about 2.5 years and it still doenst
have out of the game chat, no way to check game achievements out of the game unless xbox.com,
no way to check whos online out of game unless xbox.com, . . .
they tried to charge 50 bucks for online multiplayer on PC? the service which was free even before
the first console to support online play came out (dreamcast - R.I.P).
and microsoft's biggest competitor, sony doesnt charge for online play.
i agree that if xbox players were to stop paying for live, eventually microsoft would make it free.
and personally, i think that microsoft wants to close down gfwl because they hate giving
things away for free but they cant close it down because there are so many games right
now that support live.
Don't forget about BING driving more and more people away from Windoze. Less people, less gamers, less money = less games. MS doesn't really care about it's users. I think that's pretty obvious.
