A class action lawsuit has been filed against Samsung, SK Hynix, and Micron, accusing the three companies of working together to restrict the supply of DDR3 and DDR4 memory while fixing prices.

His comments align with a recent report from THR which claimed Rockstar currently has no plans to release a disc version of GTA VI beyond the code-in-a-box edition.
The post has Grain of Salt flair because Nate specifically mentioned in the comment that he hasn’t reached a solid conclusion on the situation yet.

Jason Schreier says Xbox’s reported layoffs are not expected to begin until early July.
He also mentioned in the same thread that Compulsion Games leadership has given employees permission to openly look for new jobs because they are likely to be affected, but no layoffs have occurred yet.
According to Polish outlet PPE.pl and insider Graczdari, physical copies of Grand Theft Auto VI that include a disc are currently planned to arrive in December.
The same insider previously claimed that GTA VI would not receive a physical release on day one.
Responding to questions about the update, Nate said:
“Or plans changed once GTA6 maintained its release for Nov. The game can sit in a finished state & release whenever Rockstar needs/wants.”
“If GTA were delayed, RDR2 could have been used to soften the blow. With no delay… they can hold RDR2 now.”
This is purely a logical speculation from Nate since he is a very informed person that’s why it’s not in a “rumour/leak” flair.

In IGN reviews they made the price of the Switch 2 as a way to deduct points of the system’s review when they used the Steam Machine’s as a way to justify why it’s “great”.
I understand IGN has different reviewers and no hate for either of the reviewers i just found these to be hilarious lol.
