So now that Xbox is officially Dead and done as a brand and platform, let's have a comfy thread>Who here still owns an Xbox in 2025?>How often do you play it?>What are you currently playing and looking forward to?>Do you think Microsoft can still redeem or is it over for them?>Playing anything on Gamepass?Currently enjoying Routine and Marvel Cosmic Invasion
>>729513567I think they can redeem, Phil is gonna strap a Series X to his ass and rocket boost to the moon
>>729513567I've never owned an xbox and bought Series X back in 2023, before the price hikes (cost me like 450 euros which was the same price as for ps5 digital).I mostly use it to play backwards compatible xbox 360 titles that have been sitting on my backlog (recently finished Gears of War 2 for example)Used gamepass for a year, but realized how much of a scam it is, so cancelled and am just buying old games for cheap.It's a shame xbox died, because hardware wise, series x beats PS5 and backwards compatability is top notch.
what happened to it??
>Who here still owns an Xbox in 2025?Me>How often do you play it?I play more on PS5 and Switch 2, I only play one hour of Xbox before going to bed>What are you currently playing and looking forward to?I have around 250 titles, mostly old games and backwards compatibility games, sometimes I don't know what to play but I'm currently finishing Silent Hill Downpour>Do you think Microsoft can still redeem or is it over for them?It's so over>Playing anything on Gamepass?Finished Marvel Cosmic Invasion, might play that Grinch game>>729513968Microsoft happened
>>729513567>/Comfy Xbox Series X thread/try to make it less obvious that you are indian
>>729513567Anon you and the snoybloggers have been screaming for over 15 years now that xbox is dead and then sony rolls over copying their every move but worse and get praised for it.
>>729514171LOL
>>729514110well the reason i was asking was because i only play on mine once a week. and this morning i keep getting an xbox game pass pop up over and over, and i can't launch arc raiders. so i thought maybe something wild happened since i played last weekend
>>729513968First kinect and then gamepass.The latter was a wolf in sheeps clothing that only ended up making it unappealing to develop for xbox.
>>729514110lol I actually played that Grinch game when they added it in october during my 2 months sub. Nothing really wrong and it is a perfectly fine 2d platformer. Would be a good game to play with a smaller kid thanks to the seemless coop.
>>729514563Trve
>>729513956Yeah but Xbox never recovered after the Xbone fiasco
>>729513567Need series S with disc drive Phil please
>>729513567I have 3 gens of xbox. been an xbro since the 360. I play almost every day. 2 weeks ago I got gamepass ultimate for 1 euro, currently playing sniper elite resistance with a friend. not a great game but whatever. after that I'll play robocop.I love my xboxes.>>729513956man, gears 2 and 3 look amazing on the series consoles. 3 looks like it was released last year. I also recommend dead space 2 and dark souls 3 for the fps boost.
>>729513567I have had an Xbox since the OG Xbox, tho I mostly play on PC these days. I use my Series X mostly as a console to play games that I bought in the past and occasionally for Gamepass, right now I am playing Republic Commando.
>>729517670I need to play Gears series
>>729514110kys ubishit shill
Playing that Prince of Persia metroidvania forgot what it's called.It's surprisingly good for a Ubisoft game the free flow combat is pretty solid.
I bought One X for Ninja Gaiden series. Runs great
>>729513567>>729518014Is Republic Commando any fun?>>729520638Yeah, backwards compatibility is great
Let’s be honest 360 was a great time So was OG Xbox No one will say it online because it’s a normie narrative, but it’s true
>>729520464I only ever heard good stuff about it except the AAA price for some reason.
>>729521689>Yeah, backwards compatibility is greatI wish that were actually true. Instead, I have to play half of my 360 games in 480p 30fps on the old shitbox
>>729520638Souliest console since the SNES
>>729524585It pretty much killed the Xbox tho
>>729521808OG Xbox was great
>>729525547no, the xbone did, almost. Still kicking, though.
>>729513567>>Who here still owns an Xbox in 2025?I got an Xbox One S>>How often do you play it?Not much desu, only been playing games that my old computer can't handle>>What are you currently playing and looking forward to?Been playing Batman Arkham Knight a lotDon't have any game looking forward for Xbox One>spoilerIt's dead, JimThe price hikes killed the brand >>Playing anything on Gamepass?Not gonna use Gamepass>>729524585Unfortunately, not being able to remove advertisements on the DASHBOARD remove most of the soul from the console
>>729527937oh no ads on my media consumption machine whatever will I do
>>729527937Arkham Knight was ok
>>729528017You can remove ads on PS4 dashboard. This shit is unexcusable. I don't want to see ads of the latest AAA garbage on my home screen every time i boot up my console That automatically removes all the soul from the console
>saar... >buy the Xbox saar... >we built it saar the xboxs, saar... >cheap and acessible games saar... >just $15/month saar...>gamepass gift card...>redeem it saar...
>>729531148LOL
>>729513567>>Who here still owns an Xbox in 2025?Aye.>>How often do you play it?Maybe once a week. I mainly play on PC now, but I sometimes play crossbuy games on Xbox too.>>What are you currently playing and looking forward to?Halo Infinite and E33. >>Do you think Microsoft can still redeem or is it over for them?Nah, it's ogre.>>Playing anything on Gamepass?I unsubbed because of the price hikes.
>>729513567>Who here still owns an Xbox in 2025?I own a One X and a Series X>How often do you play it?everyday>What are you currently playing and looking forward to?Currently playing Ion Fury, looking forward to playing Turok 3>Do you think Microsoft can still redeem or is it over for them?I'm doubtful that they could turn things around>Playing anything on Gamepass?No
>>729532752I boughted some Gamepass codes before the price hikeI'm covered til 2027
>>729513567Xbox brings in as much money as Windows does, they have no reason to not keep doing it and no reason to not have a platform where they get 30% of all transactions.The main problem is Nadella and all the other C-suite dipshits that want infinite money from insane profit targets to waste on AI so rather than focus on longterm growth and rebuilding a console userbase, e.g. the entire point of Phil Spencer rebuilding Xbox's dead first party output after Don Mattrick let it die during the latter half of the 360's life, they'd just rather port everything everywhere for smaller bursts of cash. Xbox Game Studios has been publishing 6-8 more games than Playstation does every year, just imagine if they weren't constantly porting them.The second main problem is also AI just hoovering up hardware and PC parts as we've seen with GPUs and RAM prices, but that'll be a problem for Xbox's next platform in 2027/2028.
>>729513567I was just playing OG MW2 this morning. Was able to find a match in like ten seconds. Crazy for a 16 year old game on a dying platform. Later tonight, I'm playing the Silent Hill 2 Remake.
>>729534729Trve
>>729513567I bought an xbox series X, I hate it. Stalker 2 sucks, bethesda games suck because mod support is only partial also they run like ass at 4k, gaylo sucks, Armored Core 6 plays like it was made in 1998 with colossal thumbstick deadzones because it was made for PS controllers they can't be bothered to do actual complete ports, can't play Titanfall 2 online without an extortion pass, Cyberpunk 2077 is a vaseline smeared upscaling mess as compared to playing it on my PC, no mod support either, almost nothing has mod support not even fucking terraria. God it just fucking sucks so bad, holy shit jesus christ I am in severe pain every time I look at it and this stupid piece of shit turns on by itself at 3am for no reason. Literally no reason at all because it doesn't update anything during these shadow boots, I have to do it manually, why does it do this? Scanning me with 5g while I masturbate so some jeets can jerk off to my featureless, lewd hentai man silhouette under the covers? Also cloudsync occasionally bugs out and eats all your save data because fuck you, you consumer piece of shit PLAY IT AGAIN.>Currently enjoying Routine and Marvel Cosmic InvasionAlso OP is an unbearable fucko-pop collecting faggot. The only things I regularly play on it are PSO2 and palworld, since my skyrim setup got nuked by bethesda.net shuffling the load order and deleting mods for no reason.Xbox series X is a complete fucking nightmare and I hate it so much.
I wanted to buy a Xbox SeX but considering all that happened to it I guess I'll just buy a high end PC and a Xbox cap.
>>729513567>>Who here still owns an Xbox in 2025?Me>>How often do you play it?Rarely, last time was for Indiana Jones and occasionally for Forza Horizon or OG Xbox games>>What are you currently playing and looking forward to?Nothing and nothing>>Do you think Microsoft can still redeem or is it over for them?Xbox is dead. It's too bad because I liked the hardware and BC for Xbox and 360 games but MS shat the bed on public perception and gave up on exclusives>>Playing anything on Gamepass?No
>>729513567>Who here still owns an Xbox in 2025?I do>How often do you play it?Last time I played my series x was months ago>What are you currently playing and looking forward to?Forza horizon 5 nothing to look forwards to>Do you think Microsoft can still redeem or is it over for them?no they're going all in on AI>Playing anything on Gamepass?Forza horizon 5
I like the series s a lot since it was very cheap when I got it and it's very portable. Great to take to a friend's place and play coop or split screen stuff.Then also play current stuff that my pc can't handle anymore.Sucks that performance does suffer a bit on the more current stuff but oh well, I usually enjoy more older games and rarely buy new ones unless the discount is that deep
>>729536674You should be playing on PC if only due to TAA being forced into modern video games and it makes everything look like turbo dogshit in motion. On PC you can atleast force that shit off with some tinkering. If image quality and performance mean nothing to you then you should go for a console, but even then I see no reason to go Xbox over a PS5 now that MS is bringing over the games.
>>729513567>Who here still owns an Xbox in 2025?Had to sell my Series X but I still have my One X>How often do you play it?Maybe once a week now>What are you currently playing and looking forward to?looking forward to buying a Series X again for Forza Horizon 6 >Do you think Microsoft can still redeem or is it over for them?No. Not as long as that Indian fuck is still running Microsoft.>Playing anything on Gamepass?Since you cant download BG3 onto an One X, I used a trial code for Gamepass Ultimate so that I can use the cloud streaming feature. And on some non-shill shit, I was actually suprised at how well it ran. Granted BG3 is a slow paced game but it was way better than how I remembered it when cloud streaming first launched years ago.
I wish Microsoft hasn't ruined the industry by introducing achievements at all.But I wonder if anyone agrees that their approach was correct. Just a simple number that gets bigger. Where's on Playstation virtually nothing matters except "the platty".
>>729538681Streaming is a seriously underrated feature. You absolutely cannot play games that require precise inputs like Ninja Gaiden or pretty much any competitive online game but it's perfect for what I like to call slop games.I bought a gamesaaaar controller and play shit like assassins creed or the outer worlds while in bed and it plays perfectly fine even with a little bit of lag.
>>729538981>I bought a gamesaaaar controller and play shit like assassins creed or the outer worlds while in bed and it plays perfectly fine even with a little bit of lag.Yeah thats pretty much my experience with it and how i'll be using it also.
Does anyone else here use their Xbox as a blu-ray player?It's fucking kino!
>>729514563GP is weird because it takes potential play time away from other new releases and set a ridiculous value proposition in the mind of Xbox gamers, especially before all the price hikes so not only did most full releases not seem worth the price companies were asking but they had so many other games to play that they could just wait until a new release went on sale.Everything is fighting for peoples time these days, Nadella wasn't wrong when he said he considered TikTok competition for the Xbox. Time spent scrolling is time not spent gaming so the backlog piles higher and some fotm game gets passed over.
>>729540143oh god, they made blurays of the orange bricks?
>>729513567>Who here still owns an Xbox in 2025?softmodded OG, RGH modded 360, stock Xbone X>How often do you play it?i play the one x once a month or so when i get a hankering for frotnite, maybe some back compact og in 1920p>What are you currently playing and looking forward to?nothing on xbox atm>Do you think Microsoft can still redeem or is it over for them?it's incredibly jover>Playing anything on Gamepass?game pass was a scam years ago and it's worse now
>>729540359Yes!>orange bricksYou're so funny!
>>729513567>>729513656Microsoft is run by a jeet. They are literally physically incapable of redeeming.
>>729540143I use it as an ad-hoc 4k bluray player. It's not very good at it but it will have to do as I don't have the space for a dedicated player.
>>729513567>>Who here still owns an Xbox in 2025?me>>How often do you play it?all the time, i buy most of my games there, for free cloud saves and Play Anywhere. PS5 is mainly for exclusives and multiplayer. Switch is for retro. Waiting on the Steam Machine to enter the PC realm.>>What are you currently playing and looking forward to?Currently: The Outer Worlds 2Looking forward to: Starfield 2.0 + DLC2>>Do you think Microsoft can still redeem or is it over for them?Xbox will be fine, if anything, i think they are ahead of the curve. Going multiplatform, free cloud saves, Play Anywhere, Going PC/Console Hybrid next gen, Gamepass, they are buiding the ultimate ecosystem. All that's left is free multiplayer>>Playing anything on Gamepass?No, im done with subs
>>729540859Oh nice!Please show me your blu-ray disc and your DVD collection!
>>729513567>Who here still owns an Xbox in 2025?all of them except the xbone, fuck don matrick>How often do you play it?every week on my series X to play PS1/2 games>What are you currently playing and looking forward to?Crash Bash and looking forward a Steam integration and then xbox death>Do you think Microsoft can still redeem or is it over for them?It was over 10 years ago, there's nothing to redeem>Playing anything on Gamepass?I was playing something on the free trial but it got delisted, fuck those jews and fuck microsoft
>>729513567>Who here still owns an Xbox in 2025?No one>>How often do you play it?I stopped playing my 360 years ago>What are you currently playing and looking forward to?Nothing>Do you think Microsoft can still redeem or is it over for them?No>Playing anything on Gamepass?NoMicrosoft has done nothing positive for gaming, can't wait for them to become completely irrelevant.
Here are the top 5 ways that Microsoft can save the Xbox brand!1. Lower the prices of their consoles!2. Lower the prices of the Game Pass!3. Make online multiplayer access become free for everyone!4. Add more Original Xbox games and Xbox 360 to their backwards compatibility lists!5. Bring back exclusive games!Am I missing anything?I'm glad that the Microsoft made the developer mode become free for everyone so that everyone can use emulators! Baby steps!
>>729513567the series x is actually a great console. too bad xbox fumbled the bag on first party exclusives.i fully expect microshaft to impose genai retardaton on the next gen, which will 100% be the final nail in the coffin in the xbox brand
my pc is an xbox does that count?finished outer worlds 2 on gamepass
>>729513567The only time I used my Xbox was to play Unicorn Overlord. And that's only because it wasn't on PC.
>>729541912>Microsoft has done nothing positive for gamingI agree. But I think that includes both Microsoft and Sony. It should have remained SEGA vs Nintendo with SNL pulling up the rear. Steam could still exist just fine and we'd be in great shape.>But the industry might have died without the PS1 and PS2 opening it up to mainstreamI don't care. When games were relegated to being a thing boys did "in their mom's basements" it was much better. As soon as it became more acceptable and mainstream it was ruined beyond repair.
>>729542329>But I think that includes both Microsoft and SonyIt is, now that Microsoft is going away, Sony needs to join them next.>But the industry might have died without the PS1 and PS2 opening it up to mainstreamDoubt it would have since going mainstream is what killed it in the first place. Without Microsoft or Sony, the industry can finally properly condense and go back to what it once was. I'm so tired of this current era.
>>729541912>Microsoft has done nothing positive for gaming360 being bundled with a headset by default was the smartest most any console ever did
>>729513567>Who here still owns an Xbox in 2025?I own OG, 360, Xbone and series S>How often do you play it?OG every once in awhile for Morrowind. Series S as my Youtube>What are you currently playing and looking forward to?OG Morrowind and then nothing>Do you think Microsoft can still redeem or is it over for them?They could but they won't.>Playing anything on Gamepass?I did have gamepass when it first released and had a great time. I got my value but now it's shit.
I have a massive backlog of Xbox Series gamesCan anyone rec me which game should I play next?https://poal.me/pc8kpc
I feel guilty for persuading my friends to buy an xbox
>>729513567>Who here still owns an Xbox in 2025?I do.>How often do you play it?Eh, sometimes. I've mostly been playing blu ray movies on it lately. >What are you currently playingFull Spectrum Warrior. The game seems cool but the controls piss me the fuck off. >looking forward to?lmao>Do you think Microsoft can still redeem or is it over for them?It's over but who the fuck cares. Over the last 30 years, so many great games have been released that a lifetime isn't enough to play them all.>Playing anything on Gamepass?Never used any kiked subscription service and never will.
>>729542004That's what they were doing since the Series launched but it didn't work, it was only this year where they said fuck it and just increased the price on everything. Their next strategy is that PC hybrid, I'm getting one but I would have rather they continued Phil's path
>>729542803Which led to those idiots wanting to eventually kill off singleplayer games for multiplayer-only games and going full online-only with their shitty console. I hate them and the fact they brought online paywalls and paid DLC to gaming, seriously, fuck Microsoft.
