feature complete just means they’ve truly entered a “beta” phase. They’ve made it through production, features have been completed and now the real work can begin on designers tweaking settings and balancing the game for the next year and a half.

This price change would be not for gaming industry gains, but for the capitalist's private appetite. Unity engine would be added unneccesary features for it.

Leone […] tried to “opt out” of the game’s license agreement as a minor in an attempt to do a legal end run around Bungie’s multiple account bans.

Interestingly, this seems to have worked, even if it didn’t work out the way he intended:

9. Defendant disaffirmed the license agreement that licensed him to download and play Destiny 2, rendering that license void ab initio.
10. Thus, Defendant’s download and use of Destiny 2 was unlicensed and Defendant infringed Plaintiff’s Copyrights each time he opened the software

Eggyhead, 2 lata temu do games w End of the road: The Xbox 360 game marketplace will shut down in 2024

I wonder if this was spurred on by the fact that 360 backwards compatibility hamstrung their ability to profit from a lazy port of RDR being sold at a full $60 on other platforms. Best just remove people’s ability to buy anything from that generation in case it happens again.

Backward-compatible Xbox 360 games will still be available for purchase on the Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S stores, Microsoft says.

So no, presumably Microsoft just doesn't want to deal with the tangle of close to 20-year-old code that holds up the Xbox 360's store interfaces.

It will cost 3 times as much, make the entire old library of games obsolete, only allow you to buy games from Apple, and have a strange controller that their marketing tells you is better but everyone knows is objectively worse.

Uhm…what old library? LMAO.

ampersandrew, 2 lata temu

Well, in this case, they already did that by switching to their new processor architecture, so they can cross that one off the list.

Yeah but that processor seems pretty nice. Would like to have one just to mess around with it

I hope they find a way to make my SSD replaceable, because based on what I know it's not possible because of how it's married to the CPU and motherboard with a security key you can't copy to a new drive.
