not even a trillion dollar company can compete with sony and nintendo
M$ never really needed Xbawks, it was always a bizarre product with artificial exclusives that had no reason not to also be on Windows. At least Sony and Nintendo have the excuse of not having a desktop OS as their main product line.
>>722483748They could if they weren't retarded
>sony was already shit with minimal competition>now they have nonewell it truly is over
Nintendo hasn't been an Xbox competitor since the Gamecube era and they lost to it then.
>>722483748i hoped for Microsofts gaming part to die of when they introduced games for windows livethat shit was so horrendously bad and nothing has changed the only good thing that came out of the box was maybe Halo but even for that genre there are better games out there
Steal dramcast controller and steal dreamcast fate
>>722483748All because they got greedy with the Xbox One reveal. They fucked up big time and killed their own console before it was even out. Once people started rallying behind PS4 to boycott Xbox, it was over. People buy the same console their friends own, so it was almost impossible to win back the players.
>>722483748Sony has other hardware, movies, music, manga, and anime, even mobile gacha. They can survive without PlayStation, and their current CEO doesn't even like gaming which probably tells you why things at PlayStation are getting worse. There's a new version of the PS5 Pro that's 3% weaker than the current one and Sony will launch as a complete replacement at a higher price while also hiking up the price of their other PlayStations. Sony is also expanding the PlayStation ecosystem beyond the PlayStation hardware seeing that as no longer really needed when PC, Switch, and cloud exist. There's also rumors that Sony is heavily partnering with Valve and the Steam Deck 2's specs and the PS6 handheld's specs (if that handheld is still happening currently) will have very similar specs with some minor differences exclusive to what Sony and Valve want for their different handheld hardwares. PlayStation is next in going fully third party, it's just at a slower pace than Xbox.
>>722483986They plan to pull that stunt again with the Xbox console. Xbox backwards compatibility is getting axed completely.
At this point I'm doubtful GTA6 will come to Xbox Series.
>>722484253It says PS5 and Series X in the trailer. PC ain't getting it until 2027 at the least.
>>722483748mismanagement happens all the time at trillion dollar companies anonarguably more than anywhere else really
This is the 879th time xbox has shut down. I can't believe they survived the other 878th shut downs.
>>722484159What does that even mean? You can un-compatible a game. I got the console, I got the disc, I play the game.
>>722484474It means that the Xbox Series X will be the last "Xbox" that can play all of your console games. Xbox OEMs and Xbox cloud won't allow you to.
Xbox has already had a longer tenure than Sega did by more than a decade
>xbox shutting down
>>722483748Xbox can't announce they're shutting down the hardware division until the PS6 is publicly announced because otherwise every single company that's making live-service games for current-gen hardware is gonna be pissed the fuck off.Just imagine someone like Rockstar who are gonna be stuck supporting GTA6 Online on the Xbox Series S for the next decade for a dwindling playerbase that wasn't very big to begin with, only because Xbox was kept on artificial life support a few years too long.
>>722484618Easy, just don't announce crossplay
I already assumed a collapse was coming when they started buying up dozens of shit studios for millions, if not billions, only for them to produce nothing but shit.Sony has also had huge issues with that but managed a pretty gigantic success with Helldivers so it might have supplemented the huge holes the Bungie and Firewalk studios left
>a reddit screenshot quoting a post on neogaf >thread will get 512 replies
>>722483825What the fuck are you talking about? Nintendo has been kicking Sony's ass since the Switch.
>>722484781>Sony has also had huge issues with that but managed a pretty gigantic success with Helldivers so it might have supplemented the huge holes the Bungie and Firewalk studios leftThis isn't true >>722484124
>>722484834>this isn't true>links post that disputes nothingThey objectively lost a shit ton of money acquiring both of those studios anon. I'm specifically talking about their gaming division.
>>722484801Nintendo is in it´s own league.Call me when sony makes a portable console.
Seems like new information just came in, Magnus APU never hit the assembly line and is getting cancelled. Next gen Xbox as a whole, including OEMs are cancelled. Xbox is just going full third party and pushing Game Pass to cloud before they kill that too. This comes directly from Timdog. Holy shit.
Sony is a shell of their former self they started putting their games on PC left and right just like Xbox. If you told someone a decade ago that Sony would do that you would've been laughed at.
>>722484898They lost a lot of money and haven't recovered from that, that's why they're doing what I stated in my post. There will be more Concord-level failures from Sony. It's over. They will go full third party sometime during the 10th gen, their final gen.
>>722484124>There's also rumors that Sony is heavily partnering with Valve and the Steam Deck 2's specs and the PS6 handheld's specs (if that handheld is still happening currently) will have very similar specs with some minor differences exclusive to what Sony and Valve want for their different handheld hardwares.Why would they need to partner just to have each release their own handheld with near identical specs? What would be the benefit to that?I don't doubt they plan to go 3rd party though. They will take their time with it, but they are 100% heading there.
GODny CHADstation WON!!!
>>722485086Remember, when Bloomberg first fully leaked the PS6 handheld, they stated that it was still up in the air if it'll happen or not, Sony is probably using the Steam Deck/Deck 2 as a test drive or their handheld.
>>722485086>What would be the benefit to that?To be able to have a chance to compete with Nintendo in the handheld market.
>>722484124>schizo babbleYup. Playstation won.
sooo uhhhhseries x perma softmod when
>>722483748xbox is going cloud only. why sell consoles when you have data centres which can run xboxOS and stream games? xbox is about graphic optimisation and not a hw console.
They should've left after the Xbone. Could've saved themselves from embarrassment.
>SEGA tried to challenge Sony. They failed and became 3rd party>Nintendo tried to challenge Sony. They failed and became handheld exclusive>Microsoft challenged Sony. They lasted a bit but now it's overKEK. Sony never loses baby.
>>722484923I understand your point, and its fair to be be specific when talking about competition between these companies.However, in terms of which games division between Sony, Microsoft and Nintendo have been the most successful, irrelevant of their direct competition in the marketplace, I think Nintendo is soon to be crowned king.Xbox is dead, Sony is stagnating with bleak prospects for a return and barely even makes games, and Nintendo just keeps increasing their audience.Just because Nintendo isn't taking customers away from their competition (though there must be some) they are winning the console wars.
>>722483748>>722483815>>722483825>>722483890>>722483986Xbox has always been a Windows PC
>>722485227You're coping like Xbots were, Snoy, there are some Xbots coping over this news, but SneakersSO's Xbox leaks have never been a miss. Even Tom Warren says Sneakers has some internal sources at Xbox. Sony is making similar moves that Microsoft were making, this is where it's going to lead, the same exact place.
>>722485220Why would they need Valve for that?
>>722485187Sony is going to need a cheap console, because non-gamers will not buy $800 console.Sony already has a problem where the consoles are becoming a tool for old people.
>>722483748xbox is even more justpcinabox than ps
>>722484801Nintendo lost more console generations to Sony tho.
>>722485053i specifically remember the old normie game discussion standbys of shit like "playstation should make games for xbox"well little timmyyou got your wishhope you're happyyou fucking nigger
>>722485353Sony may have won the battles but they are losing the war.It's not that complicated.The winner at the end isn't going to be decided by who won the most generations, it's who won the last one. Or maybe who won the most important one.
>>72248480131 > 8Nintendo is next.
>>722484801Soitendo isnt even considered a competitor by Sony.Reminder ShittyTablet 2 has the hardware power of a PS4 and cost like a PS6. Literally a scam.
>>722483748>Indian takes over>Microsoft as a whole goes to shitKek.
>>722485220Sony's going to fail at that like they did before. Sony is looking at Valve's Deck 2 at a surface level. Shoving dedicated NPUs and AI Accelerators in that while pushing hard on ray tracing on that is going to kill the battery and raise the price. Valve will just use the baseline specs, ray tracing and AI features already available on their custom APU and have a cheaper handheld, that has a balanced performance and efficiency level for 15W while Nintendo will win again for the same reason they beat the PSP and Vita. No need for me to mention that because it's the same advantage Valve has mixed in with their exclusives.
>homosexual tendie lingoKek, they cannot stop larping, Shitendo is finished.
>>722483748Why didn't they just decide to make good Halo games?
>>722485343Xbox is gone, Sony can do anything now to their PlayStation players since they no longer have to compete. Greedy Sony may be back.
Are we finally seeing the death of consoles?
>>722485514>reason they beat the PSP and Vita.That reason is gone. You don't make game for separate systems anymore. Especially if the handheld will play PS6 games while being backwards compatible with PS5 and PS4.
>>722485434>Maybe who won the most important oneThat was the 8th.
>>722485489Reminder that Nadella openly said he will do "everything in his power to make his homeland great" lmao. Reminder that as MS laid off 12,5k people in US and EU they requested over 14k H1B visas from US gov just for this year. Reminder that Nadella moved overwhelming majority of AI projects to India and american gov just doesnt care. Amerimutts bitch about AI while Nadella is currently doing racially based takeover of american giant while mutts do absolutely nothing about it.
>>722485586ok, but this way they're limiting themselves to existing PS players and nothing else
>>722485514Little Johnny Switchy is so scared that his arabian tablet won't get any games... Well you're right, it won't and the Canis will be the definitive place to play all games, indies and AAA on the go.
>>722485597PS6 was the most profitable console ever.
>>722483748>Xbox collapses into becoming a publisher and gamepass is dyingKeeeeeek
>>722485326Imagine the Deck 2 isn't a flop.I'm just making up some numbers here but>30 Mid-High end PCs + 20M Deck 2 + 40M PS6 > 70M Switch 2If (big IF) those systems are substantially more powerful than Switch 2, that would secure third party AAA ignoring Nintendo for at least another gen.Now, I personally think it's retarded, but that has been Sony strategy since PS4 gen; pretend like all 3rd parties are Playstation exclusives.
>>722485636>exclusives>affordable pricing lower than competitor>longer lasting battery with a very efficient handheld>can just play the games without having to do anything fancyThey literally still have the same advantages they always had. Doesn't help that current PlayStation has no games. If the PS6 handheld was BC to the PS1, PS2, PS3, PSP, and PS Vita, it would be worth something.
So when do modders turn the series x into the ultimate emulation machine
>>722484124>There's a new version of the PS5 Pro that's 3% weaker than the current one and Sony will launch as a complete replacement at a higher price3% more efficient doesn't mean 3% weaker retard. Also it will launch at the same price, and with a new DualSense model with replaceable batteries.> expanding the PlayStation ecosystem beyond the PlayStation hardware seeing that as no longer really needed when PC, Switch, and cloud existCool, so can I play Ghost of Yotei on PC right now?> There's also rumors that Sony is heavily partnering with Valve and the Steam Deck 2's specs lol> PlayStation is next in going fully third party, it's just at a slower pace than Xbox.Yes, maybe in 40 years. Sony are the only ones making serious money besides Nintendo. It will be complete duopoly like the old golden days. Valve doesn't even count, my delusional PC vegan friend.
>>722485679Where's the Nintendo DS?
>>722485674They have PC, Switch, and cloud players, they no longer solely need PlayStation players.
All these nintendies writing essays about a company that shits on Nintendo and literally keeps them alive by developing games for them is failing.
>"Everything is a XBox!">"Wait, what do you mean no one is buying our console anymore?"Masterminds at works.
>>722485786Being backwards compatible with PS4 and PS5 will automatically make it have more games than the Switch 2 because it is only backwards compatible with Switch 1. Wii u flopped.
Seeing the prices and reliability of the latest gen chips, I would not dare the attempt to bulk buy 10 mio of those blunders to plug them in some branded box and try to sell them on at markup either.
>>722485679Sony's handheld ventures always got crushed by Nintendo, this will be no different. This has the same advantages the PSP and Vita had over the DS and 3DS. History will repeat itself. Why do you Snoys still have confidence in Sony's handhelds when that's been shown to not be their forte?
>>722485679Sony is going to make Jewtendo look like they went back in time to the GameCube era KWABOTY

>>722485914You're crying? Send video.
>>722485868PS4 and PS5 have no games, why do you think everyone only think about PlayStation before those consoles. Switch 2 will have its on exclusives especially by 2028, mixed in with Switch 1 exclusives, mixed with exclusives on NSO.
>>722485943I just threw some random numbers. The point is that Sony wants 3rd parties to go for all the bigger combined install base of PC+Deck2+Playstation while ignoring Nintendo WHILE also treating Playstation as the "default" system.If Switch 2 becomes the "default" system, it's over for Sony.

>>722485296>Sony doesn't challenge themselves >They fail to beat Nintendo
>>722483748It has been downhill since 2014
>>722486257Kepler is a Snoyfag, who's a big AMD insider, if he's saying your shit is taking a loss, then your shit is taking a loss.
>>722486294*2016, that's when the changes started happening at Xbox.
>>722486116Switch 2 has some severe hardware limitations in terms of the kinds of games it can run that kinda prevent it from ever becoming the default.If every game was built for the Switch 2 instead of PS5 then the next Battlefield you'd see would be a completely different game, GTA6 would be significantly cut down and most big budget open world franchises would simply cease to exist.
>>722485302>However, in terms of which games division between Sony, Microsoft and Nintendo have been the most successful, irrelevant of their direct competition in the marketplace, I think Nintendo is soon to be crowned king.sony will literally have exclusivity of all third party games the switch 2 will be unable to run, without even trying, which is to say, 80% of video games, and i'm being modest
>>722486384>Switch 2 has some severe hardware limitations in terms of the kinds of games95% of this is just related to graphics though, which people have never cared less about.
>>722483748sony always wins
>>722486294How many billions dollars are they gonna reward him for this monumental achievement?
>>722485296Nintendo is market leader though, Sony lost
>>722486402Not him but, Valve exist Snoy, and as long as they exist with the Steam Deck 2, which will be cheaper than the PS6 handheld, btw the way with the SteamOS 4.0, rumored to finally fix the anti-cheat issue, means that PC gaming will make the PlayStation irrelevant for those third party games. You don't seem to get it, Nintendo's and Valve's blue ocean strategy killed the PlayStation.
>>722486402Third parties are all falling in line and Sony has literally never faced Nintendo with third party support funnily enough, only SEGA did and they're dead.
>winsYup.
>>722485276>Let's become the ouya, that's going to be a ticket to success, people LOVE playing games from hardware on the other side of the planet over the internet.
>>722486402If you ignore pc sure. I feel like even normies will soon be considering getting on the pc train.
>>722486578This, third parties are picking both Nintendo and PC, thanks to Steam. Sony trapped themselves like Microsoft did and PlayStation will die like Xbox did.
>>722486610The only people who don't play games on their computer are dad gamers with 13 minutes a year to play games and they're going to do it in pajamas surrounded by pops in their basement on a console.
>>722484618The series s didnt need to exist.
>>722486384>Switch 2 has some severe hardware limitationsThat depends on the developers. The hardware gap is decreasing each gen. Normalfags have a hard time telling the difference.Playstation themselves did cross-gen games for the majority of PS5's lifetime.The newest Resident Evil is releasing day 1 on a Nintendo system after more than a decade.
>>722486540>>722486610yeah i'm obviously talking about consoles. But even with PC, games are primarly developed for PS5 first and foremost, it's still the most popular platform
>>722486667Not him but most young gamers aren't playing on a PlayStation. PlayStation has a dying 7th-8th gen fanbase that gets smaller each gen. They lost their handheld fanbase to Switch and Steam Deck. Why would any of these come back? Why would their home console players give a shit about a handheld?
>>722486709>it's still the most popular platformIt's not lol. Switch 1 outsold PS4/PS5 by tens of millions and it's still selling.
>>722486667Dad gamers with 13 minutes a year to play don't buy many games though.
>>722486709>games are primarly developed for PS5 first and foremostThat's changing, PC will be the primary platform to develop games for.
>>722486775I'm not talking about nintendo, they've been in their own bubble since the wii. I'm talking about a platform that will play every game that's not a nintendo exclusive>>722486787Maybe, but that's not the case yet
I liked game pass, but everyone here is so ingenuine over not liking it that youre not going to get an honest answer. I liked being able to play old Xbox games and new ones, 1st day releases etc. Then they go and do some stupid shit and its wild to watch this company destroy themselves for no reason.
>>722486742And ps5 killed it on sales since its release. Shut the fuck up
>>722486787Bullshit, it'll always be pc and console.
>>722483748frankly amazed it has lasted as long as it has>>722486875this was always gonna happen with gamepass, it was running at a loss for years to try and build subscribers and now they're desperate to get any profit they can.Gamepass is also just kinda bad for the industry, games are too expensive to make and gamepass took away a lot of revenue they could've gotten from full game sales, also bad for us because its more "you dont own shit" bullshit thats plauging everything nowadays
>>722486874>Maybe, but that's not the case yetIt's already the case, third parties are giving up on PlayStation for PC and Switch, more and more will start doing this especially next gen. That way when Sony goes fully third party, devs can just cut them off. With Xbox gone, a lot of third parties are going to start seeing the writing on the wall for high ends. I'm expecting a lot of Switch 2 ports, Steam Deck verifications until the Deck 2 releases, and patching games to work on weaker gaming PCs. Sony will probably be the only ones using their exclusive AI features in the PS6 because Microsoft isn't there to help get devs to push it anymore.
>>722486943PlayStation is losing its influence
>>722486173This but for Jewtendo of Arabia, the whole is getting bigger and bigger.
>>722486905What are you talking about? Switch nuked the PS5, and the Switch 2 is currently nuking the PS5.
>>722486580>Wins by winning Can't stop the Playstation train!
>>722486960At a loss, not at a loss, which fucking one is it? I saw ame pass was doing great last year and they hiked up the price because of more people using it and fucked themselves. $30 is way too much, bring it back down to $17 and fucking stay there.
>>722487040Nintendo always sales at a profit, Sony doesn't
>>722487039I really doubt it.

>>722486874>they've been in their own bubbleMarket leader moment, even Sony fanboys say this shit now because they now Playstation can't reach those numbers and you really think that's how GAMING COMPANIES who only cares about HW numbers thinks like that? All they see is the market leader with a handheld market they've dominated forever.
>>722483748does this mean xbox controllers gonna cease to exist?if so I gotta hoard tens maybe hundreds of them
>>722487190That part? That part.
>>722487190GTA V couldn't even sell PlayStation and Xbox consoles in the past, COD did, lol. Why are you so desperate to push this $100 shit, that will be on PC in the next year if they don't delay it again?
>>722487182I sure youre lying, theres no way Playstation has sold less and lost influence. It is "the" console
>>722487269Where do you live?
>>722487253>that will be on PC in the next yearNot on PCs like yours tho...only 1% of PCs will be able to play the shitty port properly.
>>722487253>Gta v didnt sell consoles Youre a fucking liar
>>722487269New to tendie larp? They're absolutely insane pedos.
>>722487269Switch is bigger than PlayStation, Steam is bigger than PlayStation. Devs are starting to call Sony out, no one will release third party exclusives on PlayStation anymore, many devs are making the games for PC and bringing those to tournaments while also putting their games on Switch 2 now given its success. Sony no longer has the influence they had in prior generations.
>>722487294In the usa, but you thought I was in some third world? Anyone I met that has a console wants or has a ps5. I bet youre some Nintendo manchild.
>>722485317The 360 used a PowerPC processor (like the Wii and Macs). It was nothing like a Windows PC.
>>722487335>>722487339You can check the best sellers and COD will always be number one on Xbox and PlayStation now GTA, you faggots live in a cave.

>>722487521Snoys are deranged and scared because they're seeing their future in Xbox. Others are delusional and still think Sony won anything acting like Switch and PC doesn't exist.

Capcom called Playstation a big barrier >"To us, PC gamers hold a special significance.

"Until then, we had only released our games on PlayStation, and they were exclusively in Japanese

>>722487594Meanwhile the TRUE market leader can play the entire list minus two of the bing bing wahoo shit (those games would probably run best on the PS5 too if it was possible) while also still having two games exclusive to the platform that the PCniggers are begging to have in a year or two.Playstation drives the industry FORWARD not backward like Nintendo and their outdated hardware.
>>722487589>make good gameswin>make bad games but bribe developerswin>do absolutely nothing but close studios lose
out skilled
>>722487739And this is counting PS4. Notice how it's shrinking?
>>722487741After that OD shit, I don't want to play anything from Cuckjima anymore. That shit may me OD
>>722487741Aren't PS5 games running at 240p upscaled to 4k?
>>722483748They probably need to higher more cute women to make a day in the life of a microsoft employee video
>>722487787We're not talking about Japan.
>>722487763>chinkedYeah, they're next
>>722487253>GTA V couldn't even sell PlayStation and Xbox consoles in the pastGTA has always been a playstation leaning brand, Sony always gets marketing rights, GTA6 will sell 30 million PS5's.
>>722487792*made
>transition gamepass into solely focusing on xcloudExactly what I've been saying they're planning for years only to always get shouted down by their fucking shills.
>>722487741Tick tock sonyfag. The console concept will soon be obsolete and pc will take everything from you.Nintendo will keep trucking with their hardware because they adapted.
>>722487861Good luck selling a $100 game on a $600/$800+ console.
Most stores don't even sell XBOX consoles or games anymore.Not sure if a third party publisher position through gamepass is even gonna work out for them - their big franchises barely put them on a level with the likes of Ubisoft.>Halo has been shit for a while and nobody cares anymore>Forza remains in the shadow of Nintendos and Sonys racers>Fable is in development hell and at this point hardly anyone cares about the franchise in general>WoW is a joke>Call of Duty going Fortnite killed the IP>now they want 360 dollars a year for Gamepass>and the next price increase is already comingMicrosoft and gaming simply don't work together. They had one success with the 360 - after that threw everything away with the focus on Kinect and XBOX One. And everything since Phil Spencer took over has been a massive shitshow.
>>722487824Well what do you want? All the numerous posts of people leaving playstation, leaving PS for PC or that PS5 will be their last ever, all the casuals on social media sharing Playstation has no games? It's all out there but given Sony fanboys still live in their bubble and deny raw hardware numbers and every single day they repeat "temporary exclusives is the only thing that matters!" like a mantra
>>722487824Anon, Japan is the second biggest vidya market after USA. Guess which system is also the leader in America.Chinks technically are the second biggest market, but they only play gachashit on phones and PC since their government does not allow them to play pretty much anything else.
>>722484253I doubt TES6 and Fallout 5 are getting released when their parent company just minecrafted themselves in broad daylight.
>>722484253>xboxs out of production and pulled from shelves>Sony gets all the GTA 6 money
>>722487965I like xbox, but ps5 won this gen. The fanboi shit always gets in the way of actual fact. The ps5 is a major console, just face it.
>>722487937Its not going to work out, thats the thing. I dont understand why they fuck theyre doing this. Its like a car accident, its horrible but you cant help but look.
>>722488024A wet towel could beat Xbox.Nintendo beat Playstation, PC beats Playstation. Sony can't win against that>but ps5 won this genNS2 broke all the Playstation records kek
>>722485850thisI think in general microsoft has always been a terrible company with good ideas. desktop (gaming aside) windows is terrible and unreliable. now that apple processors are fast and cheap there's literally zero reason to buy a pc, especially if laptop (again, if you plan on gaming its a different story, but compatibility is growing and growing on mac) with this idea that everything is an xbox i might say that they pushed it a little bit too soon than expected. unfortunately they locked too many things on windows because le ecosystem but again, windows is getting considerably worse by the minute.
>>722483748I've been saying this for 2 years now..Xbox is dead press f to piss on it ..dreamcast was better..
>>722484576And far less to show for it. Sega created ips that are still beloved to this day despite decades of neglect. Microsoft made ips that are all actively fading away despite Microsoft pumping tons of cash into them. Nothing actually made under Microsoft's watch has endured, aside from their fucking car games every active property they have is something they bought.
>>722488080Someone thats not full of shit for once.
>>722487798Just like God intended
>>722488183Shit, if Horizon 6 :Japan is coming out soon it can possibly sell consoles for Xbox.
Imagine using any microsoft products in year of our lord 2025
>>722488080>722488080In what dimension fag kek shitendo is the next to die nobody buy those shit tablettes they are everywhere on the shelves...
>>722487787meanwhile worldwide.. I'll let you do the math once xbox is out of the picture
>>722488318Praise the Lord Sony ichi ban
>>722488298I like xbox, but i dont know what the fuck theyre doing. Its like they became even more retarded and feels theyre actually trying to tank the company.
>>722488237>>722488310Insane levels of cope
>>722488318Where is pc on this chart?Oh no!
>>722488318153 millions so far, baby. Sony couldn't do that if they gave away Playstations for free. They're never gonna get Japan back, Nintendo is growing massively in US/Europe, the biggest markets.
>>722488237It'll be on PS5 too.
>>722488427How is that cope?
>>722488464it's a console chart... Besides PC isn't a competitor to playstation, xbox is.
>>722488427No,>IP already dragged through the mud due to mismanagement and indifferenceIs what is going to save india's #1 software development studio.
>>722488427Sure.. reality is a bitch wake up incelbox bing bong wahooo
>>722485778That is still a flop, the Meta quest sells more units hahaha
>>722486521The PlayStation store alone makes more money than all of Nintendo >>722486775
>>722488503>Besides PC isn't a competitor to playstationHe doesn't know
>>722487604it's more like>FUCK YEAR SONY ALWAYS WINS BABY>bro? this may actually be bad for playstation too>I'M NOT LISTENING I'M NOT LISTENING I'M NOT LISTENING
>>722488483Probably. Just saying maybe, but I wanna see in May when gta 6 is released and then the xboxes numbers. Shit even resident evil 9 broke over 2 million wishlisters. So that can translate into sales, hopefully.
>>722483748remember when /v/ said MS buying Activision would kill Sony lmao?
>>722488482I'm European no one want that shit tablette wtf are you talking about kek ..this isn't cov19 anymore no one gives a fuck about switches ..that were given away here if you had a fucked up car windshield..
>>722488561Well I did look it up and he was right. The switch 2 did sell more at launch than the ps5
>>722488634There was no ps5 at lunch for 2 years retard..
>>722483748I'm not looking forward to a world where only Playstation makes consoles. Xbox has held them in check for a few generations, but they'll fuck customers over as soon as they have no more competition.
>>722488626Even the kids got PCs now, lil bro, unless you're a third worlder.
>>722486775>It's not lol. Switch 1 outsold PS4/PS5 by tens of millions and it's still selling.And how many third party games does the switch get compared to PS5? That's the platform most publishers will prioritize
>>722484105Honestly, they had plenty of time to correct their course. They had plenty of levers they could’ve pulled to claw back their competition. Such as free online or a cheaper console. They could’ve actually made fucking games rather than buying studios. They were a shining example on how NOT to support a platform. Gamepass was their best idea which was cool on paper but didn’t sell anyone an Xbox.
>>722488767Anyone with little money or broke as a Pc in Europe what's your point..,
>>722488554there's 27 playstation-published games on PC, anon.
unironic recipe to save xbox:- trash system and windows only support- create transveral app on iphone/android/mac/windows/linux- use ai datacenters for streaming purposes- cloud gaming only, deliver best performances
>>722488545Sony counts everything including all the money that they don't make, guess why their profit margin is tiny compared to Nintendo. Sony fanboys play this retarded stupid game every time.
>>722488509Barrierstation 5 is a flop
>>722485653surprised there's so little pushback against this kind of literal cronyism/nepotismand it's not just microsoft
>Be Phil>Put all my games on online stores on PC and sell a subscription>make more money in a year than I did in a generation of hardware salesShocker. Who could have forseen this outcome.
>>722488634>The switch 2 did sell more at launch than the ps5yeah, we will have to see if nintendo keeps the momentumnew nu-pokeslop for christmas may assure they will, dunno
It all started with Kinect push during the end of Xbox 360 era
I got 2 switchs for free..and they were doing this all around Europe.. switch numbers are fake as fuck most of them were given..trash
>>722488770Yeah I'm sure all the companies love losing money, who would wanna be on the next console that sells 150+ million? Uuuh nobody I guess. I remember when Sony fanboys said games would never come to PC and now they all do, history repeats itself
>>722488918Sony does this as well. I see people sell PS5 constantly they were given for free in promotions etc.
>>722488818So why buy a playstation?
>>722488982Cope..kek
>>722488894Yeah and what just happened? Masses of people have canceled their Xbox accounts. So it doesn't really work out the way they wanted didnt it?
I liked the Series S as a budget way to play next gen games, so it's a bummer that there won't be something like it in the future
>>722488926And yet there's barely any third party support for the switch1/2, compared to the ps4/5
>>722484784
>>722488794The X1X, backwards compatibility and Game Pass sold me on Xbox. Unfortunately that was also around about the time Xbox just stopped making games, exclusive or not, and all of those advantages diminished going into the next generation.
>>722489119Fuck poor people
>>722489015Why you deny it? Change internet? Free PS5.
>>722488926Third parties skipped switch 1 and are bombing on switch 2.
>>722489125You mean like when Yakuza first starting coming to PC and Sony fanboys said it was only 1 game? Or when Xbox said it was "only 4 games?" And Sony said they were gonna be "selective and careful" or whatever about what they port to PC and now they port everything?>compared to the ps4/5lol. Yeah and what do you think happens with PS6 when all the games are on Switch 2, retard? That all the casuals are gonna show up again when switch 2 is the cheapest new console on the market, even cheaper than last gen, a library that is 100% backwards compatible. Real exclusives and system sellers and tons of games to play on a faster system with a larger screen and higher resolution.
>>722483748Nephew of phill Spencer here we are fucked Xbox bros..
>>722489359Stop the cocaina brother..
>>722489548Eat shit, sony fanboy
>>722483986>the only good thing that came out of the box was maybe HaloMS didn't even develop that game. They just bought it because Bungie was going to release it for Mac.
>snoys are already getting uppity
>>722489603What kek gtfo with Bethesda...
>>722489685Yeah about to open the champagne for the dead of shitbox brand ..switch troons next
>>722489632bungie immediately went to shit without micro$oft's tard wrangling, so who knows if halo would have turned out good if they had stayed independentit's safe to assume halo would've been a one and done game instead of the multimedia franchise it is today, though
>>722488310ta gueule faguette
>>722483815The ps2 scared MS even as an OS company. The ps2 was a home entertainment device and companies like MS look a few gens ahead. What if the playstation brand could evolve into a thing beating out home computer use? So they wanted to also be in that market so they wouldnt be blind sighted by the console market. Kind of simple way of putting it, but it wasnt just a "gaming box" they were scared of.With the xbone they thought the time was right to evolve into an all in one tv box(hense the name "the one"). They always saw games as a stepping stone into. See also: oculus
>>722490074He's right. Now Sony want to be a jack of all trades and a master of none. Ever since they switched to porting their exclusives and GAAS focus they became a npc (non playable company) in terms of just following “growth” no matter how stupid an idea. I call this strat “deadbox” because it’s obvious that’s where this strategy leads cough cough..
>mfw we'll never get xbox one series x two
>>722489359>lol. Yeah and what do you think happens with PS6 when all the games are on Switch 2that's not gonna happen. Technology goes forward, not backwards, so do visuals. Switch 2 simply won't be able to handle the newest shinest prettiest games normies love to buy. Playstation 6 will be unmatched by this in the console market, if xbox really drops out.
>>722485489We just need Windows to flop
>>722490756That is like their third or fourth money maker.
>>722490074It's bewildering because MS was ahead of the curve there, and could have clinched it. OG Xbox could rip CDs and play them as the ingame soundtrack in many games. Netflix was practically born on the Xbox 360 while blu ray failed. Hacked Xboxes were such ubiquitous HTPCs that it spawned XBMC.And then the Xbone misread the situation so hard.
>>722490804It's the sole reason anybody uses microsoft anything, regardless of how much money it makes.
>>722487994Japan also mostly plays gachashit on their phones
>>722487594>donkey kongshovelware>monster hunter wildsactual trash, and I loved both worlds and sunrise>yoteiantifa trash>ds2Don't let kojima cook that shit was retarded>sonic racingwhat?>mario kart worldalso shit, but the only contender here, which is a sad state of affairs for console gaming. There's a better chance of nightreign winning console game of the year than half these titles. But considering kojima is butt buddies with geoff, its obviously which way it'll go.
Windows will be fine, Linux fanboys have been shilling their 6 gorrillion distros (and arguing about which one is the one to switch to) for decades now. Some people switch over and find that they don't like it or that it can't run programs they want to run, and then go back to Windows.
>>722490883And they will continue to use it. You know how much of the world's infrastructure runs on Windows (or at least the systems that manage it)? More than 90%.These systems aren't getting replaced with something different ever.
>>722491182I've left windows for good, so at least some people ditch windows
>>722491228European nations have been moving to Linux for political/privacy reasons
goodfuck microshitits the reason consoles stopped being consoles and the reason they aren't worth owning anymore
>>722491521No they haven't. The systems running the electrical grids, water treatment facilities, and more are certified for 50-70 years. These Windows systems were put in place in the 90s. They're not changing shit before the 2050s.
>>722491182
>>722483748>Can't compete on hardware>Decide to compete with Steam on softwareJesus fucking Christ
>>722491542Sony beat them to the punch when they entered the video game market boasting about how their console was capable of turning their games into movie-like experiences
>>722491738because movie-like experiences didn't exists before the ps1 right?
>>722491587Yes they have.https://cybernews.com/tech/europe-linux-open-source-digital-sovereignty/Europeans no longer trust a pajeet-amerimutt closed-source spyware OS
>>722491182Microsoft>70% PC market sharewill sure rue the day when people flock to Linux>2% of market share, useless to anyone but the most devout autist
>>722491804Nobody boasted about it to the extent that Sony did. And it's obvious that they always wanted to be the "cinematic experience" company since the beginning.
Remember when /v/ spent a whole year saying PlayStation 5 would die after the activision buyout lmao
>>722491885what you call cinematic experience isn't different than any fucking jrpg on snes
>>722491848Linux is perfectly fine these days, grandpa, this isn't 2013 anymore
omg snoy sisters, we won! sony is going to fuck us even harder now! let's freaking go!!!
>>722492051Don’t be a sore loser
>>722483748They won't stop making controllers, right?
>>722492051i forgot when sony started the trent of paying to use onlineturning consoles into pc hybrids, making them worse than consoles and pcsand paying 70€ for a shitty digital game in 2007
>>722491804>>722491885I hate current sony, but your responses both seem pretty retarded. Before the first Playstation, video games were synonmous with Mario, Sonic, and Mortal Kombat. You didn't get cinematic experiences, like Metal Gear Solid which was groundbreaking for it's time for feelig like a mix between a movie and a game. The Playstation brought us CGI cutscenes which was the closest we could get to pixar level visuals at home. Sure you had PC and maybe the Saturn had them as well, but Playstation was the most popular and accesible and bringing players onto the next generational leap. Current Sony is just slop pretending to be a movie studio, and a product of a total different time period compared to what was being marketed in the 90's.
>>722491961PS is just a better console for both devs and players, even if they make shit exclusives.
>>722484576They're a trillion dollar company that owns almost every major publisher. It's a far greater failure.
>>722492139Sony saw that and was like "holy shit why didn't we think of that first?"
>>722484576and still the only people who prefer the xbox are social rejects
>>722492149>Metal Gear Solid which was groundbreaking for it's time for feelig like a mix between a movie and a game. The Playstation brought us CGI cutscenes which was the closest we could get to pixar level visuals at home.Completely unnecessary and set the industry on the shitty course it is today.
>>722492204can't argue thatstill its shit and the only reason it become normalzie is xboxwhen they tried that shit on pc no one supported it so they changed their mind
>zero proofCool fanfiction bro
>>722483815>artificial exclusiveswut
>>722492365>stole halo and ruined it for consoles>stole dreamcast exclusives>almost every exclusive was timedi guess he means that
>>722485317And yet it still uses a different OS, which sucks so much that even their devs don't know if it's possible to make it compatible with Windows.
>>722492253That's not an intelligent opinion. You might as well be blaming (Atari, Magnavox) games existing at all for getting us to where we are today
im so happy brosfuck phil spencer
>>722492528Atari and Magnavox games weren't aspiring to turn the industry into a shitty Hollywood alternative with ridiculously bloated budgets
>>722493259OH YEA IF ONLY WE COULD GO BACK RIGHT BRO!!!!
>sony wo ackkk
>>722493259>Atari and Magnavox games weren't aspiring to turn the industry into a shitty Hollywood alternativeits so easy to spot underage retards like you whos first console was a xbox and first game was gaylo
>>722483748Xbox really is going the way of Sega. Never thought I would experience something like this lmao.
>>722493563This game wasn't even trying to be cinematic you mong.
>>722484801The argument that was presented to Congress as to why Microsoft shouldn't be able to buy Activision is the same one most people view as reality despite Congress shooting it down for whatever reason. Even though Nintendo and Sony are in the same console sphere it's Nintendo on their own while Sony vs. Microsoft happens in the background and PC is floating around. Nintendo is not a competitor to Sony and vice-versa. That's why most people don't want Microsoft to go because it means Sony will get even worse due to their monopoly.Nintendo is their own market. They focus on lower budget and graphical fidelity and scope games that can be played in a hybrid manner of handheld and console. They have the Japanese market but only the lower budget one for the most part.Sony is competing with Microsoft. They focus on story-driven high graphical fidelity games that have huge budgets. They have standalone consoles. They have the Japanese market, primarily the high end, but also some low end devs as a spillover from the PS4 and Vita.PC is its own thing because it doesn't really drag people from any group and instead has a completely different library and demographic it focuses on despite having the same games as Sony and Microsoft.Nintendo is selling gangbusters, make no mistake, but they are not Sony's competitor when it boils down to it. Nintendo isn't spending 100+ million per game to get 4K onto everything and pores you can see on your TV. You can even show Donkey Kong's fur technology as an example of the difference between what Sony/Microsoft do and what Nintendo does because it's a compromise essentially.
>>722484105They announced the mandatory Kinect feature right when Edward Snowden was telling the entire world they were always being watched, whatever they were doing online. Absolutely terrible timing and inability to read the room.
>>722491961That was before Microsoft deciding to not make it exclusive.
>>722493873No how could it? It was 8-bit. Shame games had to strive for more visuals
>ruins console gaming forever>dies lol
>>722483815>it was always a bizarre product with artificial exclusivesit existed to try and force asian companies out of western marketsit workedfor a bitbut nips are just more blindly devoted to their own corps than westerners arethey will buy nintendo/ps slop NO MATTER WHATbut westerners will only buy xbox if its the best optionso 1 misstep for xbox is a huge fumble and takes years of good decisions to make up forbut xbox kept fumbling
>>722490074>sightedsided*
>>722483748big, if true
>>722484359that might change due to all of this PC might get it sooner
>>722484124Sony has a bank and an insurance company etc. etc. here in Japan.
>>722494873
>>722483748Why has USA businesses been collapsing so badly this year?
>>722486480Pictured is the WHITEST Sony-Pony.
Xbox died with the 360 no idea how it managed to stay alive up to this point in time. I'm sure the majority of people outside of gaming circles don't even know what their latest console is called
Playstation has been my main platform for some time now. I have a huge collection of PS4 and PS5 games so hearing that PS6 will be backwards compatible will probably be my main reason for getting it. Also, I really want to see the handheld PS6, Sony made great looking handhelds. Between my job as a firefighter and working out, I don't have much time to game so Playstation console is perfect for my needs. I buy the games I want to support and wait the sales for the rest. When Sony stops making Playstations, I will probably quit gaming or get a PC so I can pirate all the games I already played.
To think wii killed the xbox
>>722496228Based.
>>722487521>Homosexual tendie crying because he can't spam his famitsu bubble fantasies without being exposed AAAIIIIEEEE
>>722487589Xbots pretended they won for years, lose literally everything.Guess who also loves to pretend they won.
>>722487594You mean three? Sonic Racing Crossworlds?Also: if you think Wilds and Yotei are good you should probably consider transitioning
>>722487787Now post software sales, you know those games that sells less on 36M switches vs 7M PS5?
>>722483748Can I get the timeline where Nintendo acquired Rare and is actually still making games
>>722488003Like, they should've at least held out until shortly after GTA6. Keeping their prices the same until then and getting a rare boost in interest can't possibly cost more money than just (internally) giving the fuck up now, jacking prices up to ridiculous levels, and already having major retailers pulling your current gen off the shelves.
Neogaf? Lol.
Tendies hiding behind PC while posting the exact same lies they post on their cultists threads doesn't sit well with me, we don't want pedos like you talking about PC.
>>722483748I'm skeptical since leaks like this are typically bullshit, but it would be very funny seeing Microsoft go the way of Sega given how people saw the original Xbox as something of a successor to the Dreamcast
>>722497219Neofacts, 'fraid so.
I still cannot believe how many resources they poured into making Kinect some new sensation rather than the fun gimmick/holiday stop gap. Do we have numbers? The kinect sub division alone mustve been insanely expensive
>>722483748I'm so happy to see Xbox death.
>>722497453Me too, Nintendo's next.SEGA will be reborn from their ashes.
>Playstation will probably get an exclusive marketing rights for GTA 6Nadella really is handing out slam dunks to Sony kek.
>>722483748Cheers for beta testing halo and gears of War xbitch>t. Sonyger
>>722496228>Between my job as a firefighter and working outGot too greedy, anon. Rein in your larps next time.
It was inevitable that either Sony or Microsoft fell they are occupying the same space in a market that has reached saturation and is now chasing margins.
>>722483748>Xbox dies without delivering a single game on the Switch 2 like they promised under oath Kek, 2 shit companies getting fucked!
Corruption was the only reason they were allowed to buy Activision.
physical won. shitbox, eric, and it's gaypass all lost and got raped. i won't miss them or their staunch drm defenders.
Now if Sony and Nintendo weren't retarded, they would made online free while still keeping the subsription service.
>>722499252well that would mean not fucking over consumers and sadly it wont happenwe wish anywayonline free like it should be and just keep the sub for the shitty renting games service
>*runs microsoft into the ground*Why'd they do it bros?
>Xbox going the way of the dodo>Sony is still movie game bullshit constantly>Nintendo is suing the entire planet to patent fucking everything then charging 80 dollars for itI've never been happier to have made the full switch to PC years ago than I am now.
>>722483748Unfortunately all the cancer Xbox has introduced to the video game industry will remain despite their death.
>>722483748>make poojeet the ceo>he ruins both microsoft and xbox
>>722499668The level of nepotism is insane.
>>722499668the right thing is a female or a tranny?other than the phyco face clearly
>>722499668>>*runs microsoft into the ground*
>>722483748>[NeoGAF]Is this Reddit's version of [Sad news]?
>>722500771just like shills say>its not making billions of profit so its a flop
>>722497227If you make a Nintendo > Sony argument you'll just turn around and go>But Nintendo and Sony arent even competing with eachother!If you make a Pc > Sony argument you have nothing but passive aggression. Kinda funny
>>722500941And if Nintendo fans want to mind their own business, snoys won't let them because they need to convince themselves that Sony isn't going to slowly follow in Microsoft's footsteps like they have with everything else over the last 15 years.
Anyone else kinda curious about the portable PS6? Sony always had KINO handheld designs.
>>722484801You don't buy a Switch over a Playstation, you buy a Switch and a Playstation. You don't buy a Playstation AND an Xbox, especially now with all the Xbox games ported off. You buy one or the other. That's competition, they are competing for your money because they play the same games. PS/Xbox are in competition. Nintendo is not, it's something entirely different and that's why it sold well. Arguably, PC and Playstation are separate markets too since a lot of PCfags are never buying a console and a lot of consolefags are never buying a PC. It's actually the worst case scenario because we'll have 3 monopolies in their own sector and no competition unless the Sony handheld and Deck 2 really take off and we have handheld wars instead of console wars.
>>722501287Yeah but sony also doesn't know how to market and support a portable device.
>>722502012Isn't that why the handheld PS6 will play PS6 games at a lower resolution? Pretty sure that every leaker is basically saying the same thing.
>>722502137yeah i'm pretty sure the day of separate games for handhelds are over, it'd just be the same games in a different form factor. i'm not sure how sony will make it work but if the dock has a built in bluray player that can transfer discs to the system's ssd, that could be kinda cool. going digital only would be kinda cringe.
>>722502316I wonder if they will use the handheld as an excuse to bring the PSP and Vita games to it? Could be a neat console when jailbroken.
>>722492494Interesting, you'd think it would have been something akin to windows embedded.
>>722483748they came in wanting to challenge the consoles who were challenging their PC market. They knocked Sega out. But then as people reverted to digital copies even on consoles, M$ decided they are better off being the Netflix of videogames and compete directly with Steam, despite their inability to unseat Steam from the online purchasing space. You'd think they fuck around with the DirectX platform to fuck Steam rather than compete with them directly. Then for some reason Steam decided they wanted to enter the console space with a GameGear knock off.

>>722487787if they actually over produced their console maybe people would play it rather than being turned off by the price, availability, or by the scalper price.
>>722483748CIA is going to release an affordable VR setup. Announced Christmas.
>>722501937PC will slowly eat the playstation market. Once it seeps into the normie consciences that you can just plug your tv and controller into the pc all thats left for sony is a small handful of movie games.
>>722503729I think we need a Valve console that removes all the friction for that to really happen. Something that automatically loads protondb presets for games or something that devs can explicitly optimize their games for but with more power than the Deck. You'll still have people stick with Sony's ecosystem due to the sunk cost of having so many games there but I do think that'd be an actual threat to Sony since it's basically the same thing but with more games, free online, and free cloud saves.

>>722486294I sold my Xbox in 2015 and moved to PC gaming, feels good knowing where Xbox is now. It's the end of an era.
>>722504042Sony will hold what they have as their audience dies off out of life or gaming, but I feel like each new generation of people are going to funnel into playstation less and less.The end game of 1 standard platform will be won by pc over playstation no doubt. Nintendo may be able to keep their bubble strong since they actually make games that have relevant exclusivity, and portable consoles can fulfill a different niche to what pc/playstation
>>722491668>imagine Steam, but if it were shitty to its customers.
>>722484359>It says PS5 and Series X in the trailer.It said 2025 in the trailer too and it changed lmao
>>722504042Can't the deck be used as a "console"? More like portable PC. Just plug into the tv. They could just sell something to mount it on like the Switch docking station, but not necessarily something to make it stronger like with the Switch, just to make it more convenient, a good looking hdmi hub if you will, and sell it for like 10 bucks.
>>722490074https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Embrace,_extend,_and_extinguishAmerican companies and specifically M$ are evil villain tier
>>722504790You are forgetting Sony had a good track record with portables and the Deck is strong. Sony can just go like the Deck/Switch. But yeah, even with that both Sony and Nintendo will die out eventually. At some point portable will just be a glorified smartphone just like now consoles are glorified PCs. It will take a while tho
>>722500771Is that only a 0.3% increase?AIEEEEEEE HELP ME JEETMAN I NEED 10 GORILLION MORE H1BS AND CANCEL EVERY VIDEO GAME IN DEVELOPMENT
>>722504790> I feel like each new generation of people are going to funnel into playstation less and less.That's 100% happening across the industry as kids are happy playing Roblox, Fortnite, and Minecraft on their phones and tablets. Console gaming will die and PC allows them to be streamers so that's a massive extra benefit that will push them towards that ecosystem. I don't think even Nintendo is safe from this, I think Switch 2 will end up selling much less than the Switch 1 despite the explosive start. >>722505214There's already a dock for the deck but it's too weak to play a lot of the newer games without tinkering, to win over the consolefags you need something that just works so a stronger piece of hardware to brute force games is needed.

>>722505471>You are forgetting Sony had a good track record with portables and the Deck is strong. Sony can just go like the Deck/Switch.Once again Sony will have to get on its knees and crawl in the wake of Nintendo's ideas. Sony does what Nintendid alreadyI don't think it will work this time though because Sony doesn't make games
>>722505840Back to mastodon, linjeet.
>releasing their software on any device that has a marketplaceSo...Android? Could be huge.
>>722505471>At some point portable will just be a glorified smartphone just like now consoles are glorified PCsreally good point because we're gonna reach a point while the switch 2 is relevant where the new iphones/samsung flagships surpass it in graphics like what happened with the switch 1. if third party games are all ported to phones like we saw some japanese devs experimenting with, that's easily the greatest threat to handhelds. microsoft trying to push cloud gaming might factor in eventually too. if people can save $450-$750 on buying a console and still play the same games, they're gonna do that.
>>722484359its rockstarthey are releasing everywhere anywayand only underage kids are impatient unable to wait for timed exclusives
>>722505634>so a stronger piece of hardware to brute force games is needed.Maybe so. But I think gameplay over graphics had a renaissance and they could get away with just making it work without much hassle because I don't think we will be getting much more graphical fidelity in the coming years. Besides, with Deck becoming the norm, devs would develop to it instead of it being Gabe's job to make the games work
>>722485679>PSP didn't outsell the system it was directly competing with lol
>>722503331Drunken gambler mentality.
>>722483748Only poor people buy xbox and game pass. That's why it's called peasant box and peasant pass.
>>722485296SonyCHADS just keep winning.
>>722507254Graphics are being held back by companies chasing after larger markets, right now games can have absurd graphics but they're just not doing it so they can release on Series S/PS4 but people are making Cyberpunk mods that look ridiculous.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MwnUlgmIfXMIf there's 2 games, 1 that has shitty graphics and 1 that has good graphics and both are basically the same game because of how much the industry copies each other, chances are people will flock to the newer and fancier game instead. Especially when they're the same MSRP. That's nothing new, people have doing that since tilesets for roguelikes so they could ditch the ASCII characters for real graphics.
>>722483748I'm surprised it has lasted this long. Consoles stopped making sense after the 360 generation.

>>722494910Not entirely true. I know people who have stuck with and continue to stick with Xbox despite being the worst console for the last two generations
>>722508025When SneakersSO says something about Xbox, it's true, multiple insiders are corroborating with him, give it up, it's over. PlayStation is next.
>>722509764>Nintendo with zero competitionErrr, this can't be good, right?
>>722509959Nintendo has had 0 handheld competition for a decade. That's how they've gotten this bad.
>>722490872The mediacenter approach was bound to fail with the advent of smart tvs. There was just not enough time in the sweetspot of having a plug and play console that can do all the multimedia stuff while smart tvs didnt yet take over the market. And at this point, why buy a gaming console without any killer apps if a smart TV will do the job?
>>722509959Nintendo hasn't had competition since the Wii, even longer if we talk about the Gameboy. They're like Valve with Steam, no competition because no one understands PC gaming.
>>722499668>mfw I'm a high end PC gamer watching console peasantry
>>722491848>Microsoft>70% PC market share>will sure rue the day when people flock to Linuxnigga it's not just Linux, it's smart phones. Windows used to dominate the normie market among those who wanted to send emails and check the news. Now, Windows PCs have to compete against phones for that market. Among the power users, theyre the ones who know how to use Linux or are willing to learn
>>722509356>i know stupid peopleok and?
>>722483748Xbox's problem was always chasing. All they did was chase and never gave their devs room to breathe. Even refused games like Yakuza simply because they thought it was garbage meant to fail. Sony in recent years have become just like this too but they have the advantage of the niche and loyal fanbase they build with the PS1 and PS2 but Xbox never had anything other that Halo fans but even that franchise they ended up crashing it pretty quick. The hyperfocus on AAA games and big sales will always lead to failure.

why do you think they increased the price of everything.people are leaving in droves but they still need to post profits in the next quarter, gotta make up for the loss.

>>722511184What did Eric did to you, Tim?Thought you were both BFFs.
Who will be held accountable for this ? (:
>>722509959Nintendo found their niche. Making a traditional console at this point would be stupid because they got gaped by Sony in that market.
>>722509356how is playstation better? They're more successful businesswise, but nothing they have produced for the past 4 years has been any good.
>>722510439>Noooo, my identically specced shitbox is better than your identically specced shitbox!It's like watching apes flinging shit at the zoo
>>722500771>Market CapMeaningless.Market capitalization only takes into account equity. It does not take into account the amount of debt in gearing used to keep a firm financed. It's a shit metric to track actual value, but an EXCELLENT metric to fleece the sheep and hide bubbles that are on the cusp of bursting.
>>722483815It was their attempt to beat Sony. Sony was talking about the PS2 being the "water cooler" for office workers and MS said "nuh-uh" and then proceeded to Kamikaze themselves into poor sales.The OG X-box was pretty revolutionary in terms of "lets put a Pentium 3 PC into a console box with a unified Online system and free DLC subscribers can get as thanks for subbing."The 360 on proceeded to blunder it. The 360 a little less so (since it still had J. Allard from the OG team, who was there for Blades up to NXE UI 360 era), but every X-box generation after the 360 completely fucked the pooch and MS never could figure out who their market was (gamers? Wii audience/retirees with Natal/"Kincet"? Dudebros that subbed to X-box Live? Netflix subs [Goypass]?) and focus.Anyone that followed their PC studios (remember Ensemble?) knows they would mismanage shit.>>722484801Fischer Price tablets aren't on the level of adult consoles.

>>722499668Nadella is only the double-tap.The real kill shot was Don "We have a console for those with shit internet, it's called: The X-box 360!" Mattrick and Adam "Why on Earth would I live in the mountains?" Orth.Even Phil Spencer admitted that gaffe is what killed X-box and they can't recover.
I wonder in a timeline where the Acti-Bliz aquisition never happened, would have this still be the endgame this soon?
>>722511886I left for Gay Ben's dick when Sony decided to be retards and follow X-box Live (which sucked with the 360 era) with Playstation Rental Service (PSRS).Fuck paying for online play and games I would never rent from Blockbuster.
>>722510292>>722510403They still overlap third party wise and if Nintendo becomes the only console manufacturer, all third parties would depend exclusively on Nintendo for half of their revenue. Both Sony and Nintendo fleece their costumers already, it could get much worse if only one is left.
>>722512543the only thing that came close is the blizzard "you guys don't have phones?" thing. They might have recovered having the weaker console that gen, but making kinect mandatory and also more expensive sealed their fate.
I just don't get their strategy. Moving COD on gamepass lost them a fuckton of money which they admitted and now they decide to go full subscription cloud gaming only? It will lose even more money because nobody will want to play that laggy shit
Wait, making all their franchises about angry lesbians didnt work?
>>722513021They overestimated how much people cared about CoD and how many would make the jump to xbox due to game pass.CoD peaked years ago, it will never get any better.
>>722510393They did NOT forget to include the IA!!!!!!! >:(
>>722512932>They still overlap third party wiseThey truly do not. There's so many third party games not on the Switch and the Switch has games that aren't anywhere else, the game catalogs are completely different. AAA games more or less pretend the Switch doesn't exist.>if Nintendo becomes the only console manufacturer, all third parties would depend exclusively on Nintendo for half of their revenuePhones will always outpace Nintendo's hardware because Nintendo cheaps out on it and phones cost 2x as much, so probably not. Third parties would probably go PC/Mobile so they don't get blown the fuck out by some f2p Chinese gacha that ripped off their gameplay formula but has crazy graphics and doesn't cost $80.The only saving grace for the Switch 2 will be if Sony copying Nintendo and making their own portable gives devs a reason to optimize their games for both, ensuring the Switch 2 gets ports. The Wii basically killed the Xbox because Microsoft chased after it with the Kinect, if the Switch kills Playstation because of Sony chasing after it, that'd be too fucking funny. But PC/Mobile will win the end regardless of what happens to the consoles.
I swear to god if microsoft is the reason why we never get the elder scrolls 6 I will be pissed
>>722512712I can't wait for the Portable Cleveland Steambox 2. I'm ready to play my games on the shitter.
>>722483748>destroys the gaming industry and then leavesWhat did they mean by this?
>>722512932That's a good thing though, these devs keep trying to make people pay $1000+ for hardware just to play their shitty poorly optimized games. It's a punishment they deserve.
>>722507460All consoles are peasant boxes.
>>722483748Yeah, resources alone don't win a battle. You've also gotta have vision, and that's always been their weakness. Always.https://www.eurogamer.net/why-xbox-failed-in-japan
More news, the Windows team is putting the next gen Xbox on hold (they killed it) as Microsoft wants the Windows team on AI and they're putting the Xbox full screen experience on permanent hold. It's over, lol
>>722487798Yeah, and what does that say about the weaker Switch 2?
>>722483748Has Microsoft tried making good games?
>>722518335Their way of trying is throwing millions at a wall and watch if some bills stick
>>722518335>Has Microsoft tried making good games?Yeah it was like 2001-2012.
>>722487787Sony killed their japanese presence when they stopped making handhelds.
>>722514180Anon that's not how any of these things work. Mobile doesn't mean anything for consoles, it never did. The gamers that want real game only has consoles or PCs and that's it.
>>722512932This. Now when Xbox is dead, Playstation will start to die because they can't jump on the hybrid model and they're light years behind Nintendo. Without exclusives they're dead too.Switch 2 with third party support will kill Playstation so fast people will be surprised but who the fuck wants to spend 600-800 euro on a console that doesn't have any games. Playstation is in a really dire situation
>>722501937What's with the weird copes? Why the fuck would anyone buy PS over PC today if they got money lol?
Roblox
>>722519340>Mobile doesn't mean anything for consoles, it never did.The line between both is blurring just like the line between console and PC games blurred until it's more or less gone now. We have some console games with iPhone ports and many phone games are now getting PC ports. It's obvious that the end result will be games on whatever you want and that will either be phones for casuals or PCs for hardcore gamers. The console middle class will die out and this is the crux of Xbox's business strategy with their pivot to cloud gaming right now. They want to get in early as one of the ways to play real vidya on mobile and smart TVs but phones at least should be able to run games natively too.

>>722512932>if Nintendo becomes the only console manufacturer, all third parties would depend exclusively on NintendoNot with smartphones and tablets existingNot with PC (desktop, laptops and handheld PCs) existingNot even with cloud gaming existingWhat will happen is you'd see an overwhelming and near instant exodus to PC and mobile with others trying out cloud gaming. They might even ask other 3rd parties who are established on PC (Capcom and SEGA for example) for tips on how to get their games there. May even ask Sony and Microsoft for help Other will look at what Apple Arcade and Google Play and do for them. None of this is to say they won't look to the Nintendo and depend a bit on them, but they have options and they know it. And I can almost guarantee you that when Xbox consoles go, the majority Xbox console players are either going to move straight up quit playing games, move to PC, or try Xbox cloud on their TVs. They aren't going to run to buy PlayStations or the Nintendo Switch 2. If PlayStation goes, likewise the majority of them will either move to PC or just be done playing games. This group is DEFINITELY not running out to buy a Switch 2 if anything happened to PlayStation.

BASED BASED BASED GOODBYE XBOX
>>722483748Fake and gay
>Xbox OEM with backwards compatibility + Steam machineThis is a good scenario for a living room PC. You could arguably build one yourself already, but the backwards compat could be better coming from the source.
>>722520317>people who like movies instead of videogames stop playingand nothing of value was lost
>>722497098Rare doesn't want to go back to their old IPs
Microsoft could easily make the xbox surge if they made it compatible with PC games, could even give it a full blown desktop environment, the amount of people that would buy it would be insane due to the price being incredibly competitive for a desktop device, just like back in the days with the PS3 being bought for bluray playback.Then they could focus on their subscription services which is what they're milking already anyways.Yes, I'm saying that the xbox should essentially just be a steam machine, there is no other saving path for the xbox than becoming that, since that platform library is basically all on PC anyways.
>>722521489>still believing in Microsoft's liesIt's like the warnings of the past mean nothing to you.

How does Nintendo and Valve keep doing nothing and winning?
>>722512932>if Nintendo becomes the only console manufacturer, all third parties would depend exclusively on Nintendo for half of their revenue.Microsoft and Sony's nuclear card is official emulators to play their catalogs on desktops, tablets, phones, etc.
>>722520317If Nintendo is left by themselves, maybe SEGA will rise from the console ashes to save us. It would take SEGA or a new NEO GEO for me to consider coming back to consoles.
>>722485353>>>>>>
>>722523512>SEGA >saving anythingThey can't even save themselves.
>>722488767No one has a PC anymore, you ignorant turd. This isn't the 2000s anymore when everyone needed a pc so they could get on the internet.Except me only my two younger brothers have one. Everyone else has forgotten the HOME PC was a thing in ages long past.It's all pocket kompyooters now.
>>722490872>And then the Xbone misread the situation so hard.Problem is Xbone cost a lot, and it played games notably worse than a PS4. I'd have been all for its other features, including the HDMI-in support so I can picture-in-picture my cable box while gaming.
Just in time dor valve new console
>>722512543That's just a shitty excuse from Spencer.Sony has dropped the ball hard with PS5. It is shit. Overexpensive and no exclusives.Xbox only had to use their resources to get a killer lineup of exclusives games across various genres from Western and Japanese devs.But instead Xbox has zero exclusives and they keep raising the price.They yet again have a flawed vision with the subscription based future for gaming.
>>722526458Wow, so all these people doing streams in their rooms, using full physical keyboards and mouse inputs, fixing their monitors, doing podcasts and such are ALL using their iPhones?
>>722526458Do you live in the Bronx or something?
Only broke people do PC gaming over getting a PS5 lol.
>>722527220Those are just retards "making an investment to become the next mrbeast"You can ignore them. They have no love for it.>>722527356Well, maybe. Considering Europe has been negrified to oblivion Europe is now one huge ghetto.
>Xbox has killed itself>Playstation is slowly killing itselfSo where do the platform wars go from here? Do we just get an eternal Nintendo vs PC stalemate? Or will Valve double down on pushing Linux through deck, splitting up the PC camp and giving us a MS/Windows vs Valve/Linux vs Nintendo war?
>>722527423So, what you're saying is no one is going to own a PS5 in the future?
>>722527654of course. what the fuck else is there?
>>722527654They die, you get a Switch 2 and then you get a Steam Deck 2 and call it a day.
>Giving the xbox brand to third parties so they can shit out flops like the 1000 dollars xbox handheldIt's over.
>>722520162A white man killed xbox long before poojeect raped its corpse
This all can be traced back to kinect and the xbone debuting as a glorified DVR instead of a console.Microsoft spit in their core audience to chase Wii trends and it just was never the same after
>>722528109To be fair to MS, Sony eventually won by being the "It only does everything" console from PS3 Slim onwards, so naturally they'd want to one-up that.
This is really interesting because if MS gives up on consoles does that mean they give up on DirectX as well? that's the only thing keeping windows afloat in the gaming market. Steam is getting better but most games that don't use Vulkan see performance drops anywhere from 10% to 20% compared to windows.Without gamers windows is pretty much the office OS because agatha from accounting has a melty if the internet icon isn't in the same place on her new computer.
>>722520317Even Sony fanboys buy Nintendo now lmao, Xbots will be the same.
>>722528182The PS3 started winning because microsoft went full retard with kinect, pushing it even in core audience titles like fucking mass effect 3Nobody wanted that
>>722528027Every time Phil is asked about xbone he says everyone at MS thought it was a good idea. They are like google in that they live in a bubble. I don't know how you do so well with netflix on 360 only to turn around and say cable is the future.
>>722528353>This is really interesting because if MS gives up on consoles does that mean they give up on DirectX as well?No way. They are going to make Xbox branded 3rd party PC's. Like an alienware "xbox". They are not out to that extent. They are probably just considering ditching the in house xbox hardware and allowing Asus, dell, and samsung to make an xbox for them. What might be interesting is it could open the door for companies like sega to make an "xbox".
>>722528524I never liked how they completely forgot Japanese games during the latter part of 360 era.They had exclusives (or regional/timed exclusives) like Ace Combat, Tales of Vesperia, Lost Odyssey, The Last Remnant etc.Steins;Gate was at first 360 exclusive in Japan.
>>722529136Rumors are coming out that they're killing the next gen chip that was meant for OEMs and switching fully to AI. The OEMs were meant to pay for the next gen box. It's dead altogether. They're going full third party and even Game Pass is on the chopping block once it fails on cloud.
>>722485679Now show us the software sales because everyone bought a PSP to hack it.PSP got raped by piracy so badly it killed the vita by proxy because no third party wanted to lose more money so they pulled a 3DS on it. And unlike Nintendo, Sony doesn't have a first party library to keep a system afloat.

>>722483748Rest in piss Gaming as an entire culture and sub culture died since the vaxxies slopped it all up with ai ironically.Let the great crash continue Sega died the same way which is super duper ironic considering Xbox was Sega 2
>>722529279Don't remind meXbox 360 after blade UI and the falcon jasper HDMI units where max soulessXboner surprisingly has some good exclusives until they all got ported to PCRip halo rip Forza rip fable
>>722529351If this is true then xbox should just be spun off from MS. An AI and media company can't coexist without one cannibalizing the other.
>>722512445retard
>>722529279Lost Odyssey was such a great game. Makes me sad that a bunch of jrpg fans have never played it due to xbox exclusivity. I'd love a pc port.
>>722530052For gaming they're just going to focus on software that can make money on other platforms>Halo (Master Chief campaigns and multiplayer)>Gears of War (campaign and multiplayer)>Forza Horizon>Call of Duty>Minecraft>Fallout>Elder Scrolls>Overwatch>World of WarcraftAnything that doesn't make them money is getting cut.
>>722486875gamepass is a fucking stupid idea it makes the user go ahh wait for it too be on gamepass then buy the 300mil game
