Strictly a business relationship

Xbox never made a profit on a console?
So then all those quarterly reports to the contrary was false?

The slim models, price of parts going down only applied to PlayStation?

So AMD was hooking Sony up? I bet you they didn't even really give the series x rdna2. I guess Xbox won't leave the competition in the dust. Sony wins again (can't wait for sunset overdrive 2 )

They were under oath though

They were under oath though

What was said under oath exactly because I see tweets with narratives, but I could be wrong, could you show me where they say they never made a profit off any console at any point and time ever.

1) how historic is this case really gonna be or is the media just spinning it?

2) can someone simplify this shyt for a non-gamer

I’ll link you to a non-biased source

Epic v Apple explained: What the trial is about, and what to expect | PC Gamer

But the trial does have some really huge industry changing implications depending on who wins.

TLDR: Epic wants all devices which support downloading and playing video games to be completely open platform. Which means anyone should be able to put whatever games and stores on whatever hardware they want without having to pay the platform holder. Like windows. Epic basically has to prove that apple is trying to create a monopoly on their platform

Open platform: Windows, Android, Linux

Closed platform: iPhones, iPads, all consoles

Microsoft is defending Epic because it means they could potentially put Xcloud on sony and nintendo consoles without permission and without having to pay them a dime

In the end microsoft is not making profit on hardware, while sony and nintendo is. What this also means is eventually the PS5 will be profitable an the Series s/x won’t be which is why microsoft is relying on the subscription model
