Not selling consoles literaly affects Gamepass directly Xbox will end up as a 3rd party publisher and releasing most of their games on PS5 at the end of this gen...it's quite obvious that's where this is going. They make less money by having their games exclusive to Xbox and PC and they didn't spend almost 100b dollars to lose money now. COD will stay on Playstation cause they know they would lose money otherwise. Most of their franchises will be the same in the end. Starfield is already with less daily players than...Skyrim on PC Sis, stop with the dramatics and fanboy circle-jerking over a console sale. It costs Microsoft almost nothing to keep the consumer products division of Xbox going. The next Xbox has already entered pre-production. Did you miss the Microsoft leaks? They truly are not worried. But regardless, you just said it yourself, Gamepass sells even more on consoles....so....if that's the case wouldn't one assume they'd keep their main driving force for subs? The only two of the big 3 worried about console sales is Sony and Nintendo sis. Why? Because they rely on them. Microsoft does not, leaving them free to do more in the space while keeping their ecosystem and expanding onto playstaytion and integrating it with Nintendo, remember? Beast in the corner mentality, they truly don't care because of the sheer amount of cash they have. They could keep Xbox itself as a fanservice and it still wouldn't hurt their bottom line. Now let's see what yall say when you're subbing or buying in to play Elder Scrolls 6 as you just admitted there what a juggernaut Microsofts Skyrim still is. 1 hour ago, glitch said: As a very casual bystander, I've always found X-box's naming convention very confusing. Like how are you supposed to know a new one is out when you went from 360 to one to series Meanwhile PlayStation is very clearly 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5. You must be extremely casual, cuz sis did Nintendo and Sega confuse you too? Jesus H. Jones Edited November 21, 2023 by Afterglow

Nintendo also flopped with the Wii U and a lot of people thought it was just an optional thing lmao. I remember stores with signs saying Wii U games didn't work on the original Wii because of how bad their marketing was. Edited November 21, 2023 by tiagol88 2 1

Yes I am..are you that misinformed you couldn't tell if it's a brand new Xbox console or the same as the 360!? Cmon now, what kinda GPEE nonsense 1

thatsmydemi Posted November 21, 2023 Posted November 21, 2023 buying a xbox series s is one of the best things I've done. I'm having so much fun with it. So 50k people with taste.

Sis the 360 and Xbox One were some of the most successful console launches of all time calling yourself stupid isn't the key here, just be informed, millions of others were and ended up enjoying those consoles. 1
#Beautiful Posted November 21, 2023 Posted November 21, 2023 literally who cares both ps and xb are great
Rence Posted November 21, 2023 Posted November 21, 2023 No one cares about Xbox outside the West and it seems that the West is starting to not care either Microsoft Gaming division’s greatest asset is Game Pass and their current strategy to improve it is by buying huge third-party studios instead of supporting what they already have
LustSpell Posted November 21, 2023 Posted November 21, 2023 (edited) Xbox has always been local to the west and it will continue to be. At one point it was selling 2-3 consoles a WEEK in Japan. But it's such a failed console - it's completely understandable why they buy every studio. They aren't competent enough to make **** on their own. Imo, they need to give up on consoles and just push PC. Why buy a boring, worthless console that's more ~powerful~ when there isn't a single good game on it? You can have a great PC and get everything you need. Xbox consoles are dead, but they can play catch up with Game Pass. Edited November 21, 2023 by LustSpell
JennyWayne Posted November 21, 2023 Posted November 21, 2023 Truly the Xtina of gaming Maybe it's because their names are so similar 2
Domination Posted November 21, 2023 Posted November 21, 2023 (edited) Console wars are so late 00s. Y’all look like pop music stans posting iTunes #1s in 2023. The future of gaming is in streaming and micro-transactions and Microsoft just bought half of the gaming industry. They don’t care about hardware. This should not be a surprise when Nintendo stood their ground and continued to produce inferior hardware that sold like hotcakes. Edited November 21, 2023 by Domination 4
Navyofbadgals Posted November 21, 2023 Posted November 21, 2023 Xbox is a waste of the GPs money I fear.. Might as well just get a good PC 1

Why would there not be a powerful counterpart in the console space? Also, do you think Microsoft minds being local to the west in console sales? Really? Do you? Isnt Microsoft a Western company? Yall need to stop the insecurities now that Microsoft owns the gaming industry. They won't attemot to buy Sony unless they really want to. Edited November 21, 2023 by Afterglow

M!X Posted November 22, 2023 Posted November 22, 2023 Xbox has been living of xbox 360 glory days for 2 decades, like back then owning a Xbox made sense, however then they just stopped releasing exclusive games while Sony and Nintendo released so many classics last generation, Xbox existing in 2023 makes zero sense tbh
Cheers Posted November 22, 2023 Posted November 22, 2023 GTA still top 5 . Surprised to see Hogwarts still in the top 10. And It Takes Two top 10 cute game!

Sadly, Sony doesn't seem to agree shelving IP and developer after developer in favor of bets on service games Last of Us - has more remasters out than original titles Last of Us Multiplayer - shelved, cancelled? Spider-Man, iterative sequel Uncharted - dead

It’s not like they are stuck with sequels of the same IP. Uncharted “dead”? You just complained about sequels but you’re also complaining about an IP not having a new game? There’s rumors about a studio working on a new title btw.

And they still released better hardware regardless. tbh with all the lawsuits recently I'd say Sony and a few other companies are terrified of Microsoft. They've always been the beast in the cage, being the youngest, richest and sexiest brand. Now people are worried about their sheer power in the industry as a whole, while some people are still fanboying on "console sales" like it's 2006. You just answered your own question. Xbox has its exclusive games and Gamepass. And you really aren't sure if THE ELDER SCROLLS 6 will be a HUGE release for them? Cmon nah Put your fanboyism aside for a bit. Do yall even play video games here Theres too many insecure fanboys sad Microsoft is buying up all their favs. Nintendo loves it though so no shade to them. Buying up half the industry but can’t deliver a game anyone wants to play is truly something else edit: also cheering on said buying up the industry is insane Edited November 22, 2023 by Rigalo
