Manage episode 402533445 series 3262288
In our latest podcast episode, we dive into critical issues facing the gaming industry. We discuss the alarming risk of game preservation highlighted by the Video Game History Foundation, where 87% of classic games in the US are at risk of being lost. We also examine the lawsuit against Activision Blizzard by Optic Texas CEO and a former star player over allegations of monopolistic practices in the Call of Duty League. Furthermore, we dissect Sony's recent announcement that major first-party PlayStation games won't release until after March 2025, and Phil Spencer's confirmation of a major Xbox Cloud Gaming feature allowing users to stream their own games in 2024. Additionally, we analyze Sony's stock losing $10 billion in value amidst adjusted PS5 sales forecasts and lower-than-expected operating margins. Stay tuned for insightful discussions and updates on the gaming industry's ever-evolving landscape.
