Epic Games founder and majority stakeholder Tim Sweeney took to Twitter to congratulate Microsoft for overtaking Apple as the world's most valuable company by market value. He also criticized Apple and Google in the same tweet. Congratulations to Microsoft on a well-deserved honor. From Bill Gates to Steve Ballmer to Satya Nadella, they have a 50-year track record of supporting and empowering developers to do great work, while respecting developer and user freedom. A sharp contrast to Apple and Google. That's not unexpected, given Epic's current lawsuits against both companies. As a reminder, Tim Sweeney is attempting to get Apple […]

The Epic Games CEO explained in short order that some parts of the company had become disconnected from their own revenue sources, and when the proverbial golden goose couldn't quite cover for them anymore, there was no recourse but to reduce […]
Fortnite creator Epic was willing to take Sony to court over Fortnite crossplay between all platforms, CEO Tim Sweeney has revealed. That's what Sweeney revealed as part of the ongoing court case between Epic and Google. As part of this case, Epic's CEO took the stand to testify about the company's stance on open platforms, and how far he and Epic would be willing to go to get full crossplay support on PlayStation.

Apple finally included a telephoto lens in its iPhone 15 Pro Max last year, with the upgrade extended to the iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max. This is just one of the many examples of how the Cupertino firm adopts various standards much later than the competition, likely because it wants to offer the best configuration to customers. One other technology that the company is said to bring for the iPhone 18 that rivals like Samsung introduced years ago is variable aperture for the main camera, and according to one analyst, another supplier will provide these parts. Sunny […]
