In today's Daily Fix:Take-Two, the parent company of GTA 6 developer Rockstar Games, doesn't think Call of Duty on Game Pass will move the needle much on AAA games coming to the service. CEO Strauss Zelnick thinks Black Ops 6 will bring in subscribers in the short term, but when it comes to GTA 6, it doesn't make much sense for them to release that game on Game Pass on day one.

The Nintendo Switch is only a million or so units away from taking the PlayStation 2's crown as best-selling console of all time, and the Xbox Series consoles are keeping pace with the much-loved Xbox 360

In other news, Sega has trademarked Yakuza Wars, which sounds like the next entry in the popular Like a Dragon series. Unfortunately the trademark paperwork doesn't even mention that this is a

On today's Daily Fix:Since the upcoming Deadpool & Wolverine movie is a team-up, it just makes sense for that Xbox Deadpool butt controller to get a partner, too.

You'll have to check Microsoft's Instagram account for details. In EVO 2024 news, Bandai Namco has announced the return of a popular Tekken character. And on the other side of
