All right. Now that the semi-finals teams have been listed, which team do you think is going to take it this year? For starters, I guess Neowin should change or remove the "Supporting England", now that they're out! :p

Anyway, my prediction is that France is going to get it, seeing how they were able to beat the defending champions (Brazil)! ;)

Italy have been an average side and have had luck and bad refereeing decisions on their side. France were terrible in the group stages and therefore don't deserve the cup. As for Portugal, I think their players have been even more theatrical than the Italians and Dutch, which is hard to beat.

Its got to be Germany for me. They have won every game because they are organized, strong and passionate, and they deserve it for that. :)

I don't think Germany are as certian to win as people think, they've only played two good teams...sweden who didn't put up any fight at all and Argentina which was a close call. I think they have also had many lucky calls from the referee too, they will find the Italian defence difficult to break down and may have peaked too soon. Being the home team is a very powerfull advantage though, we'll see soon enough :)

    • Microsoft announces the return of Xbox exclusives with Gears of War and Clockwork Revolution by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Microsoft had plenty of announcements to make today at the Xbox Games Showcase celebrating 25 years of the gaming brand. Now, under the leadership of the new Xbox CEO Asha Sharma, Xbox games are going back to their original release methods. She appeared in the livestream itself to announce the return of Xbox console exclusives. This means two major upcoming games from first-party studios won't be coming to PlayStation or Nintendo consoles: Gears of War: E-Day from The Coalition and Clockwork Revolution from InExile. Both titles will only be coming out on Xbox Series X|S consoles and Windows PCs, ditching any plans they had for PlayStation. "These are not timed exclusives," confirmed Microsoft. "We’re committed to investing in and growing XBOX both on console and beyond." The company confirmed that any already announced Xbox titles for PlayStation, under previous leadership, will continue to arrive for the rival platform. This means games like the new Halo remake, Forza Horizon 6, Fable, and State of Decay 3 will still be available on PlayStation, either at launch or later. It sounds like any new projects announced by the company will avoid other consoles in the same way. Microsoft first opened the floodgates by bringing titles like Sea of Thieves, Grounded, Hi-Fi Rush, and Pentiment to PlayStation and Nintendo consoles back in 2024. Since then, almost every new game release from Xbox Game Studios has arrived for rival consoles alongside Xbox and PC. This decision follows Sony's plans to ditch its own multiplatform releases too. Outside of multiplatform live service titles, the PlayStation maker is even abandoning its PC porting endeavors that started years ago.
    • I'm missing the beginning part of this equation... but for the sake of the convo, you don't get to take a $250(?) set of normally priced RAM, jack it up to over $500/600/800 just because of a market shift, then lower it back down to more than what it was originally and call that a "sale". Not the author of this post... the manufacturer/seller.
    • SpaceX has secured a significant cloud-services deal with Google, agreeing to a monthly payment of $920 million for computing power.  This agreement, covers approximately 110,000 NVIDIA GPUs and other components.... https://cio.economictimes.indiatimes.com/news/investments/google-to-buy-computing-from-spacex-at-920-million-per-month/131543026
