| Quote: | Microsoft shuts down Mixer, partners with Facebook for gaming streams
The Twitch competitor is closing down next month.
Microsoft's game-streaming service Mixer is closing down, with the tech giant telling users to transition over to Facebook Gaming instead. The decision, announced Monday, came after Microsoft decided the time needed to grow Mixer was too long in comparison to "the vision and experiences that Microsoft and Xbox want to deliver for gamers now." The service will shut down July 22.
"We're teaming up with Facebook to enable the Mixer community to transition to Facebook Gaming," a Mixer blog post said. |
What a slap in the face to the people who've spent ~2-3 years building a community. Now they have to start over on Twitch (over-saturated crap), Facebook Gaming (wth?) or Youtube (lol).

Who's stupid enough to trust Microsoft with their services anyway?

Facebook Gaming? What a rotten death 
Oh and apparently only the big boy streamers were informed of this in time, everyone else streaming there found it out via these news. Classy move by the microdicks

Basically every Mixer streamer has already started to move over to twitch. When it comes to FB Gaming I don't know of a single one that will go that route.

Naaw, he got hurt by the big bad boomers. 
Besides are you that naive that you took Pax serious in not knowing who that coloured hairdo guy is?  The fact he mentions he's not 13 says enough. |

Those top men was a guest on that 'show', read the replies.
Happens a lot on the twitteroos, someone claims something and if you look a bit further into it: mm, not the situation that got painted.
