Welcome to episode 61 of Shack Together! We're joined by special guest Ozzie Mejia to discuss Microsoft's surprising Xbox price hikes and dive into this week's massive list of tech earnings reports. EA enacts significant shifts with Respawn Entertainment announcing layoffs and game cancellations, while impressive sales figures roll in for titles like Oblivion Remastered, Elden Ring, and more. Today's show features our "Warframe or Soreblame" segment, testing the crew's knowledge of the popular free-to-play game's extensive weapons arsenal, from the widely-used Tenet Envoy to the fan-favorite Opticor. Ozzie also shares insights from his interview with Towerborne's Game Director about the game's Xbox debut and future plans. In Story Time, we cover major industry developments including Fortnite's return to iOS, Apple's court ruling in the Epic Games case, and Nintendo's latest (and perhaps final) System Update preparing for Switch 2. The tech sector dominates our industry news with comprehensive earnings reports from Meta, Microsoft, Amazon, and Apple, revealing significant developments in gaming revenue, AI initiatives, and hardware sales.

Ist Philipp Klöckner mit den Microsoft-Earnings zufrieden? Philipp Glöckler hat sich ein Probeabo vom Manager Magazin gegönnt und ist überrascht, wie viel Werbung in dem Leitmedium für Entscheider:innen steckt. In Folge 373 meinte Pip, dass seiner Meinung nach die Nvidia-Ökonomie nicht funktionieren kann. OpenAI zahle das 8-fache und solle daher eigene Chips bauen und selbst betreiben. Wenn das wahr ist, sollte dann die Azure-Mircosoft-Ökonomie bzw. die Hyperscaler-Ökonomie nicht auch Risse haben? Was passiert mit dem Bedarf an Rechenzeit, wenn Chips billiger werden? Würde ein CERN für KI Europa helfen? Wir schauen uns die Zahlen von LVMH und PayPal an. Hat Glöckler Apple-fatigue? Apple lässt sich scheinbar mit Apple Intelligence ein bisschen mehr Zeit. Waymo bekommt 5 Milliarden Dollar von Alphabet. Delta verklagt Microsoft und CrowdStrike. Spanien verhängt eine Geldstrafe gegen Booking wegen Missbrauchs einer marktbeherrschenden Stellung.
