Google To Shut Down Stadia Refund All Purchases

The scheme is focused on making it ultra-convenient for Australian consumers to recycle batteries and Pkv Poker drastically reduce the estimated 90 per cent of batteries that wound up in landfill before the scheme began.

Sept 7 (Reuters) - GameStop Corp on Wednesday reported a smaller-than-expected quarterly loss and a partnership with FTX US to increase its presence in the cryptocurrency space, sending the video game retailer's shares up 10% in extended trading.

There's still a long way to go, but it aims to end the disposal of toxic batteries at landfill sites and recover valuable elements that are in limited supply: copper, cobalt, nickel, manganese and the so-called metal of the decade, lithium.

That tech will also be made available to Google's industry partners. Sony gave its own streaming service a headstart in 2015 by buying the patents of OnLive -- an early game streaming service -- shortly before the once-promising startup shut down.

'Other than when I was 12 years old, I have never, ever, ever - and I would never do that, that is the worst thing that I could ever do - cheat in a tournament with prize money,' Niemann said afterwards.

'I will say that this case is definitely a time to remind parents that it's very important to know who your children are friends with, whether that's in the classroom, social media apps, Snapchat, TikTok and then also gaming platforms.' 

The company has since overhauled its management in an effort to reverse years of languishing sales and has been bolstering its e-commerce capabilities as online shopping accelerated during the pandemic.

'Other players, especially those that play at Hans' level, are much more sophisticated, and engage in 'selective cheating,' using a chess engine to give advice only in key moments, and often intentionally making sub-par moves to mask their engine use.'

It appears that Google didn't tell many developers about the shut-down prior to the public blog post. Destiny 2 makers Bungie tweeted on Thursday about coming up with "a plan of action" in the wake of the announcement. Assassin's Creed developer Ubisoft intends to allow players who've bought its games on Stadia to bring them to PC through its Ubisoft Connect digital distribution service, it said Friday. 
That said, it admitted that there was 'no direct evidence that proves Hans cheated at the September 4, 2022 game with Magnus, or proves that he has cheated in other OTB [over the board] games in the past.'

There are certainly high stakes involved, despite chess's ordinarily understated image. The Sinquefield Cup paid $87,500 (£77,500) to the eventual winner, whilst the upcoming Chess.com Global Championship offers an overall prize fund of $1million (£886,000) and will hand $200,000 (£177,585) to the victor. 

Explaining the move, Stadia vice president and general manager Phil Harrison noted Google's investments in gaming through its Google Play digital distribution service, its cloud tech and YouTube streaming.

"This growth is also leading to concerns about the impact of new energy systems on the long-term availability of resources and the economic and environmental impacts of the extraction and use of critical metals and other elements.

People using Stadia will still to be able to access to their game libraries, including Pro games if you had an active Pro subscription as of Thursday. In an email sent to players, Google warned that publisher support for games may vary, and it's possible that your gameplay experience may be affected during the shut-down period (suggesting that some games could vanish or lose features early). 

A clearly frustrated Niemann quickly cut the interview short, telling the interviewer:  'You can leave it to your own interpretation but thank you, that's it,' before walking out, much to the incredulity of commentators.

‘This TCL TV has the best combination of features, sound and picture quality,' praised one reviewer who rated it a full five stars. 'Go to settings and put it on sports mode because it will be operating in 120 motion mode and the picture quality is great and bright with great contrast.'
