Xbox is Microsoft so that’ll literally never happen.
Microsoft already uses Linux and in fact even develops its own Linux distribution since quite some time because Windows just isn’t good enough for certain tasks: github.com/microsoft/CBL-Mariner
Surface Duo is another Linux-based product by Microsoft.
Surface Duo uses Android though so I wouldn’t put it in the same vein as Linux distros. Microsoft uses Linux for their web services like everyone else, but there is no way they’re going to push people to using their competitor on consumer products. They want people to stay on Windows.

Windows Phone is dead, Android is not.
One of the reasons that Steam Deck is better than Windows handheld PCs is because Valve can freely modify the graphics drivers. That’s not possible with the proprietary Windows Radeon drivers.
Only yes. GNU software is irrelevant for anything being Linux (lots of other Linux distributions use no GNU software at all, most notably embedded variants using musl and Busybox). The kernel being a modified one is also irrelevant because almost every distribution ships patches to the kernel. The only person who can revoke Android being Linux is Linus Torvalds, not some random YouTuber named Gary.
Fact is, Microsoft ships Linux-based products and even if it’s highly unlikely what they will switch the Xbox business to release Linux hardware, the outright statement “that’ll literally never happen” is ignorant.
I kinda figured those rumors were bullshit. They may be secretive, but Fromsoft still wouldn’t just quietly release a major dlc for one of the biggest titles they’ve ever made.
Shit must be massive for it to take this long, though, without much news other than a title, and two updates that they are still working on it.
They probably weren’t lying then or now, they are committed… for this quarter. When they read the numbers next quarter, well that’s completely unrelated to today’s commitments!
Pretty much everyone is claiming that, at this point. No one has a solid source on their claim though. Its all on Nintendo now to prove it, or a leaker to release images or something.
No public sources yet, but there are positive whispers from anonymous people in the electronics supply industry. Companies that make boards, chips, screens, that kinda stuff. That plus the fact that the original Switch launched in 2017 is enough for me to believe the new one is on the way.
It’s not that I don’t believe it, it just seems silly for all these sites to keep saying so, without anything to add. Just jumping on the bandwagon for clicks.
I agree. There seems to be a job in the industry called “Professional Guesser”. It’s like those companies/people who say, “Barbie Vs Kong” is expected to make $76m at the box office this weekend. How can you possibly know?
I’m currently playing Elden Ring and it’s so freaking massive. It’s incredible what From soft choice to include. There’s whole areas that are completely gated for a hard-to-find side quest, that you’ll only discover if you happen to follow a guide.
Any other company would have chopped the content and put it in a DLC.
Seven years feels about right for a length between consoles. I am curious to see what they do with it. It's hard to see Nintendo not sticking with the handheld console approach with the Switch 2, but just building a more powerful Switch doesn't feel very Nintendo, if that makes sense. Like there has to be some feature or gimmick to set it apart from the Switch.
Especially when the chipset, Tegra X1, is going to turn 10 years old next year and has roughly the same performance as the iPhone 6. Kinda impressive longevity when you think about it.
After Capcom’s DRM fiasco, they’ve poisoned the well something fierce. Giving us more of the genre they established smacks of Resident Evil many years ago when 6 was out and was followed with forgettable spinoffs. That will poison the rest of the reservoir. They never learn.
Even if one of them was a Code Veronica remake like we want, I am holding my breath. I bet one of them is a Live Service game, because they haven’t learned with their OTHER attempts at that.
I did that too!
But it’s always weird when that happens; it seems like Adam Jensen is voice acting for a live person. I did enjoy watching him play the game though.
Ah yes, in-game currency is fiction. That’s why it costs real money, and publishers mandate developers lock down the game as much as possible to ensure no one circumvents the ‘fiction.’ The mind boggling profits they bring must also be fictional.
