#NuNews: Just Die At Work!

2023-05-09

Instructions unclear. Insulted Lee immediately. Maybe it's not quite what he meant... The CMS has blocked the Microsoft Activision Blizzard merger! We did not see this coming. And on the basis that Microsoft may get too much market share of the "cloud gaming" market. Like what the heck? Everyone thinks this is the complete wrong move, and even Microsoft has published a very unveiled threat about pulling their entire business out of the UK. Could this see the Uk government reigning in the CMA? We wait and see. But whatever happens, we have at least another year of talking about it.

Lee has a conspiracy theory. He seems to think that devs are training us to accept 4K30 as the default for this generation. How right is he? Do you think there's any weight to this theory? Or do you just think the devs aren't very good? All this in relation to Redfall releasing without a 60FPS option. And then Jedi Survivor came out, and it performs better in 30FPS mode... Kyle just thinks that games are all broken.

Hogwarts comes to the Xbox One generation! Now everyone on old-gen can enjoy the wizarding world of Potter. And it comes with more content. Whats the extra content you ask? It's a song. A song is now in the game for everyone. And everyone is HYPED! We wish we could understand why, but no questions here.

Xbox is geting a new home screen and it doesnt suck. It's even amazing that we have to make this point in 2023, but hey, progress! Have you gotten it yet? Have you seen it? What do you think? Do you like your pins as much as Kyle, or like Lee, are you unphased?
