Rest in Xbox
Seems like a reasonable business decision from AMD.
>>722580424dead already? lmao
Poor poor Vert.
>It has to sell at least as many units as the Wii U>UNREASONABLE, CONTRACT DECLINED
>be megacorp with literal infinite money and deep ties with the US government>cant take risks, gotta lay off thousand of devs on the regular, gives up on projects after the first bump in the roadSurely all those newly hired pajeets would steer Microsoft in the right direction
>>722580519Vert getting killed off is the only actual negative emotion I feel from any of this.
>>722580424Why hasn't Microsoft made its own CPU? Why are there only 2 CPU manufacturers?
They are probably better off optimizing for the Ally or other existing handhelds.
>>722580845Same reason that Intel can't get their GPUs off the ground.
>>722582140What's the reason for that?
>>722580845Because chip manufacturing isn't like a opening a restaurant or even a bank
>>722582140Would that reason be that no one would but their CPU?>>722582285Surely a megacorporation like Microsoft could do it.
>>722582285actually it's a fair questionAmazon and Apple both design their own CPUs, they just don't manufacture them themselvesWhy the fuck can't MS design their own chips? Seems like this wouldn't be a problem if they had in house expertise
>>722580424let's be honest, there was no way an xbox handheld sold 10m units
>>722582442Wasn't it going to be priced at $1000?First they want us to own nothing then they want us to purchase expensive shit.
>>722582414Apple designs ARM chips and ARM is fairly open.Microsoft is only interested in x86 which is proprietary locked down by Intel & AMD. They can't just produce a x86 CPU out of their ass, they need them.
xbox is doomed
>>722582645>Wasn't it going to be priced at $1000?That's their Xbox branded ROG Ally, which is still coming out.Their actual handheld probably would have been cheaper, but still not cheap enough to justify buying.I imagine it would have been somewhere between $600 and $750.
>>722580845>Why hasn't Microsoft made its own CPU?They have made many dedicated ICs.>Why are there only 2 CPU manufacturers?There are far, far more, you confused brainlet.
>>722580845because designing a CPU is not something easy. there's literally just a handful of people on the entire earth who can do it, and even less people who create machines that manufacture CPUs i think this webm can give you a slight idea whyyou should google how CPU factory look like, or just try reading about them a little bit more, and you will quickly understandim sure that if Microsoft really wanted they could invest billions of dollars for research, to train people, and to be able to start manufacturing this kind of stuff, but it would take years and years and years and billions and billions of dollars and you still can't expect great effects, so for a company that is used to only chasing easy profit it's practically impossibleChinese government has unlimited budget that they're pouring trying to catch up, and they're not even close to being close to manufacturing such CPUs
>>722583459Nothing about ARM is open. Its just as proprietary as X8 and now their licensing structure doesn't even allow mid sized vendors to try and customize core Arch, basically only Apple and Qualcomm can
>>722580424Is that the new handheld they marketed recently?
>>722580748That's really what having a CEO with zero vision and who only cares about net profit does, really.Since the jeet took over it's been an infinite succession of closing departments and cancelling products left and right, before him windows 10 was shit, but it was honestly a reasonable OS, but after him the infinite advertising and spyware made their appear on every single of their products.It seems his only motto is "let's extract every single cent we can from every user", without any regards for making it better or more user friendly, just make any money possible at any cost necessary.
>>722580748saar pls redeem the xbix chip saardo kindly revert the cancel saar
>>722584550No, thats just a rebranded ASUS unit that was quickly shit out because they cancelled this
>>722580519>>722580752>VertI haven't been keeping up with leaks. QRD?
>>722584085Let me rephrase, its easier to design a ARM chip than it is to design a x86 chip. no matter what. partner or scratch.
>>722580424Microsoft also spent 8 years on Perfect Dark remake to cancel it.
>>722582645>First they want us to own nothing then they want us to purchase expensive shit.we only said they were evil, we never said they were smart. one of the biggest problems with the current ruling class is that they have been infected with the same retardation they clandestingly imposed on the lower classes in order to cripple their economic and social advances. Originally, it was only suppose to be poorfags who embraced being a fag and race mixing. It was only suppose to be poorfags who threw away their history and culture and adopted the new globalhomo faux ideology. These things were pushed by the elite with the explicit intent of creating an inferior underclass so that their own children wouldnt have competition ruling the world but at some point, these retarded faggots started huffing their own maladeptive propaganda and treating it like the bad faith arguements they intentionally engineered were good ideas so here we are. The inferior subhumans they brought in to replace the middle class are now firmly entrenched in the ruling class, the retardation designed to cripple middle class growth and development is now the global standard. They created intentional generational knowledge gaps in technology by outsourcing industry to forigners while neglecting passing on skills to their domestic population and then the worthless shits that were suppose to keep those tech trees in tact and expand it ALSO dropped them and started persuing outsourcing as well because monkey see, monkey do.People call the chinese evil for their BRICS/belt and road/ect plans but the chinese are just copying what they saw the international jew bankers were doing in the 70s and 80s and 90s to fuck over south east asia.These corporations can have all the money in the world but it doesnt matter because everyone running them and working for them are worthless nepobaby hires.
>>722580424If this is a lie why don't microsoft sue them?
bump
>>722580424It's better this way. Now the combined might of Sony and Microsoft or S&M as I like to call it will crush Nintendo once and for all
>>722580624Seeing as the series s and x "sold" 30 mil at most, with them giving away Series S, the Xbox handheld wouldn't sell 10 mil
>>722582414Microsoft is a services company that sells hardware because lol.
>>722580519DON'T SAY THAT.
Steam deck sold 5 million and the vita sold 11 million. Making a custom chip for a handheld wouldnt sell very well even if you have MS's full might behind it.
>>722584016It's just like when Shirou activated his magic circuits...
>>722585087No leak, xbox is just exiting the console market and posting Vert is fun.
>>722588459Microsoft is a services company that does hardcore scientific research and sells hardware because it builds brand prestige that investors like
>>722580424This means that Valve is going to use an off-the-shelf APU that isn't custom because AMD won't make it, as Kepler stated. Kepler has stated that the Steam Deck 2 would use a cutdown AMD Medusa Premium, meaning the modular Medusa Halo Mini APU. So, Steam Deck 2 would be>Steam Deck 2>2 Zen 6lp + 4 Zen 6c (8 cores disable), 6-thread>12 CUs of RDNA 5>16GB of RAM>7.9-inch 1920x1200 120Hz HDR VRR screen>Wi-Fi 7For the base model I can see Valve selling it at either $499 or $549 using an LCD screen and just 512GB of SSD. Microsoft and Sony are fucked on next gen prices when their handhelds come around especially Microsoft's since theirs an OEM.
>>722589504Forgot Frame Gen
h-hello?
>>722580845because microsoft are retards relying on a OS to bring in their income and investing it into AI thinking it will save them from their inevitable collapse
>xbox literally dying>/v/ doesn't carewhat the FUCK happened to this place?
>>722594554sony runs this board, nerd
>>722594554Xbox has pretty much always been in last place. Sure it has some old holdouts from the early Halo games, but that's about it.
>>722594554Xbox became dogshit years ago, they lost all of their fans, and they lost respect. We're also cheering on the coming death of PlayStation too.
>>722594554Why would I care? X-box died in 2012. This is just Phil finally burying the decayed corpse.
>>722580748They fired pajeets and are trying to fix it by hiring pajeets.It's a pajeet-feedback loop.
>>722594554Both Xbox and Playstation died as far as I'm concerned.
>>722580845Because making CPUs is one of the most difficult things we know how to do.
>>722594554Empty Internet bro. Everyone else is either wageslaving or have gone homeless. Just us and some gooners here and there. So unless you want the bots to come over and give this place fake traffic, you're gonna have to wait a bit.
>>722594554Xbox is responsible for most of the cancerous monetization schemes in the video game industry. Good riddance.
