  Steam Has SteamOS Sale, Doesn't Make The Sale SteamOS Exclusive
Posted by: SteelCrysis - 03-09-2015, 04:16 AM - Forum: Gaming - No Replies

It's like they don't want anyone to get SteamOS for additional Steam sales. The sale is for games that are on SteamOS, regardless of the platform you're using.

  Nvidia Threatens to Become A Monopoly
Posted by: SteelCrysis - 03-09-2015, 03:21 AM - Forum: Video - Replies (61)

Based on the findings of JPR, the only analysts I trust.

Quote:Back in October, 2014, AMD announced that it would reduce spending on sales, marketing, administrative and other structures built around its computing and graphics products business unit. The company reduced the headcount of its CG group’s personnel by 700 employees. To make the matters worse, AMD’s declining revenues mean that the company has to cut its spending on sales and marketing. Consequently, there is nothing new to sell because AMD does not introduce new products, besides, the company’s abilities to sell are getting lower too.

In the recent months popularity of Nvidia GeForce products among end-users got a lot higher thanks to graphics cards like the GeForce GTX 970 and 980 as well as due to some other reasons. As a result, a number of graphics cards makers changed their shipments proportions in favour of Nvidia GeForce solutions.

According to Jon Peddie Research, total available market of desktop discrete graphics cards in Q3 2014 was 12.4 million units. Nvidia’s market share increased 9.5 per cent to 71.5 per cent, whereas AMD’s share declined to 28.4 per cent, JPR reports. It is likely that in the Q4 2014 Nvidia’s share increased further.

DigiTimes reports that manufacturers of graphics boards are worried that the market could gradually lean toward Nvidia. If Nvidia controls a dominating market share of the market, it will force them to buy more from Nvidia, and they will lose ability to negotiate GPU prices. As a consequence, prices of graphics cards could go up, which will further reduce demand for discrete graphics adapters.

Hey what do you guys think about allowing Rollo to come back to ABT? It seems that other trolls are allowed here so why not Rollo as well? Rollo is way cooler than steel crysis IMO.

  Microsoft Is Bringing Xbox Live to Windows 10

Don't expect a repeat of Games for Windows Live. Unlike that, Xbox Live managed to establish itself in the console space when it had no competition, and has had any issues worked out. It's not going to be dislodged by Steam. What's more, this opens up the path for Halo to return to the PC, so Steam fanboys wishing for Halo on Steam are going to be disappointed.

  R9 300 Series Delayed To Computex

Apparently AMD hasn't been successful in moving out old inventory, and needs more time for that.

  Upcoming AMD Flagship GPU Spotted Powering Occulus Rift

Quote:Just to be clear, I saw a demonstration of Showdown running on the Oculus Rift Crescent Bay, being powered by an unannounced Radeon R9 flagship ultra-enthusiast product. Those words, in their exactness, were told to me officially, as in on the record, by AMD.

  Developers Port Their AAA Games To The Dead Steam Machines
Posted by: SteelCrysis - 03-05-2015, 04:02 AM - Forum: Gaming - Replies (1)

Look at all of these idiot developers, each motivated by the fear of letting their competitors go unchallenged on any platform. Just like devs were lining up to sing the Wii U's praises, until they discovered that 3rd party games don't sell on the Wii U, and the Wii U has sold less than the much-hated XBone despite a 2 year headstart.

Now they're all porting because of fear of their competition, to a platform Valve has semi-officially killed, Trollpoppin's rants and name calling to the contrary. Wait until they discover that games on SteamOS in particular and Linux in general don't sell because Linux and SteamOS have no compelling exclusive games, just multiplats that can be found on Windows.

With the developer of Runescape, no less. That's what's become of AMD's buying SeaMicro.
