XBOX: 1,600 Layoffs Today, Another 1,600 Over the Next Year, Four Studios Now Independent or Sold, Arkane in Limbo

More broadly, Microsoft is cutting 4,800 jobs.

Today, Microsoft is laying off 2.1% of its workforce. This equates to 4,800 people that are being let go. The company's XBOX division is cutting about 20% of its entire workforce. All of this is being done in an effort to cut costs due to rising prices and expenses brought about by artificial intelligence (AI).

As a quick reminder: Microsoft plans to spend $190 billion on AI in 2026. In 2025, the company spent $80 billion...
 

PlayStation is Killing Physical Game Discs

Digital only after January 2028.

Starting January 2028, Sony will no longer produce physical discs for new PlayStation game releases. All games released in January 2028 and after will be available only through digital stores such as the PlayStation Store.

Sony attempts to justify this move by claiming it's a "natural direction" in order to "adapt to consumer trends as the general preference for digital media significantly outpaces physical discs."...

Lord of Hatred Review: Diablo 4 Finally Finds Its Final Form

This is Diablo 4 at its best. I mean it this time. For real.

Returning to the world of Sanctuary for this latest chapter feels like a true homecoming for those of us who have spent hundreds of hours traversing its dark and unforgiving landscapes since the base game launched back in 2023. The release of the Lord of Hatred expansion marks a significant step forward in the narrative that was originally set in motion during the initial campaign and furthered by the events of the Vesse...

  • New Tease from Xbox Community Manager Might Be for Call of Duty: World at War II

    The Xbox Canada Community Manager, Raj Patel, Tweeted out the following teaser image earlier today.


    The not so secret morse code translates to: "Presented by Xbox, 10am PDT, 1pm EST, May 4th 2015"

    Interesting, the red "II" does close resemble this other "leaked" image from the day prior. This image is said to be faked but the similarities between the two are unmistakable. It could just be a huge coincidence, however.

    Exo Zombies Havoc Trailer for Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare

    The longer cut of the Exo Zombies Havoc trailer for Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare was released a very short time ago by Sledgehammer and Activision today. There's some really insane looking things going on in this trailer, the least of which is John Malkovich.

    Naturally, Xbox owners get the DLC first on January 27. The rest of the world has to wait for an undisclosed later date. I'm guessing it's going to be at least another month of waiting while that gloriously lame exclus...

    Exo Zombies Mode is Coming in January to Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare

    The new co-op zombie Exo Survival mode for Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare is slated to arrive this January 2015.
    As things were wrapping up around launch, we started playing around with the idea of what happens when zombies were thrown into the mix with exoskeleton gameplay. What we came up with is Exo Zombies — an entirely new breed of zombies and an entirely new co-op experience that is truly unique to Advanced Warfare. The first chapter of Exo Zombies will be coming with the Havoc D

  • Activision Claims Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare is the Biggest Entertainment Launch of 2014

    Activision busted out the PR machine today and made the bold claim that Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare is the "biggest entertainment launch of the year." Yes, that once again means they did better than other game releases, movies, music, and books for 2014.

    Of course, that isn't terribly hard to do when the starting price for a game is far and above the starting price of a movie, a music album, or a book. Moving on... Activision also noted that thanks to the big sales of Advanced...

    Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare is Now Available

    Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare is now available in North America on PC and both old systems and new systems. It probably includes a bunch of explosions and stuff. Also, lots of bad guys are probably in the game. Maybe this year will be a five hour campaign of peaceful negotiations instead of violence. Hey, you never know. I think I'm also legally obligated to make the "House of CODs" joke before you guys get a chance to. As has become "tradition" around these parts, I'm sure I'll b...

  • How Many Games Did You Complete in 2025?
    by Shawn Zipay
    Make up your own definition of "complete."

    Was 2025 a big year for game completions for you, or were you more of a "stick to one never-ending, live-service game for the entire year" sort of player?

    For this, you can take whatever definition you want as a game "completion." Beat the main story? Earned 100% of the game's achievements? Or simply played enough that you're satisfied with what you accomplished and have no plans to return any time...
    I did not complete any game in 2025
    33.33%

    I completed up to 10 games
