  • Article title is click bait. They are not referring to the starting price, but the fact that more recent consoles don’t drop in price within a year or two like the older ones did.

    Also, I disagree with the premise because modern consoles tend to start at a lower relative price which could mean they are more accurately guessing the market value up front or maybe the older ones were priced to gather as much income as fast as possible on the original release and the cost drop was to get rid of excess stock.




















  • They could easily identify the worst hackers just based on the game play data without needing to actually confirm that they have cheats installed.

    Snapping between spread out people to get a half dozen head shots in a quarter second? Hacking.

    Locking on to someone behind a wall? Hacking.

    Hacks that nullify recoil? They should be able to tell by unrealistically precise counter movements.

    Sure, games can occasionally have network issues that result in these kinds of things but if someone does it regularly then it isn’t a networking thing.
