Holy fucking BASED.

Imagine if Playstation got somebody as competent as her.

Yeah, just look at all the great Xbox games that came out in that time like... Uh...
>>
>>737498950
I don't care about cheap games, i care about good games. The games that i want don't get made anymore, sit for 10 years in development and when they finally do come out they are in a broken and unfinished state or are used as a DLC platform.

I'm not shocked. The biggest thing Microsoft did for gaming is implement and standardize paid subscriptions. This bullshit is just what they do, whether they call it Xbox Live, Game Pass, or whatever.

Can't do this. Xbox Helix will cost $1500 and the Helix OEMs will cost more than anything Nintendo, Valve, and Sony shits out. Xbox Store on PC is also very dead vs the Steam Store. Returning to exclusivity is suicidal for Microsoft. It's simply over for Xbox.

I would not pay $70-$90 for any modern CoD title but I will try them out and inflate your numbers if they're included in the pass
>>
>>737503736
Trying them used to cost $1 since you would just get Game Pass to play it. I wouldn't play a new Call of Duty game for free, but Microsoft doesn't expect $70 for a playthrough.

>According to The Verge, Microsoft is reportedly abandoning the “Microsoft Gaming” label and returning to Xbox as its core gaming identity. This shift was announced internally by Xbox CEO Asha Sharma as part of a broader “return of Xbox” strategy. The move follows recent decisions around Game Pass pricing and platform changes, while a new Xbox logo has also started appearing internally

Say it with me! ''Thank you mommy Asha!''

Uncle Phil brought Xbox games to PC. Then he brought them to Steam. His legacy will not be beaten.
>>
>>737508610
Phil had full behind the scenes knowledge. He saw every game in production and then PUBLICLY said

>"I see commentary that if you just build great games, everything would turn around. It's just not true".

This dude knew that the games they had in production weren't cutting it and 2 years later every xbox game turned out dogshit. He knew that they didn't have any upcoming tentpole releases. Sony makes movie games, Nintendo makes family games and Xbox makes "gamer" games. Sci-Fi, FPS, TPS, racing games. Literally gun and ball. And for some reason they thought it was a good idea to abandon that winning strategy trying to broaden their appeal.

Literally two in the bush. And they went home with an empty game bag.

Those non-gamers left after the Wii and because of Steam Hardware, more and more people have been pushing away from that live-service crap. The cancer that Sony and Microsoft brought to this industry, has yet to leave it. I will forever thank Nintendo for making the Switch and Valve for making the Steam Deck, gave me a permanent escape from the trash that is the PlayStation and Xbox.

Imagine apologizing for the Xbox Live cancer because you're afraid of girls lmao. Small dick energy

I remember posting a few years ago that you can never truly stop these big companies. They may go through periods of mediocrity but the decisions they make along the way will build a foundation for the next generation of leaders who come along. For example xbox bought Bethesda and abk and stuff but did nothing much with them for ages. It only takes a competent leader to realise they have all this powerful weaponry in their armory. Now xbox can shake up the entire gaming industry by announcing elder scrolls 6 as xbox exclusive, which they probably will.
>>
>>737498950
th..that's not her real face what the actual fuck
>>
>>737512117
They, like Sony, can't shake up shit. That title belongs to Nintendo and Valve, they change the industry, Sony and Microsoft just follow like a sheep. PlayStation and Xbox only exist just to give what Sony and Microsoft think is competition. Of course, Nintendo and Valve couldn't give a single shit about them since they're the leading platforms anyway. You can try to fight Nintendo and Valve all you want, but in the end, all things lead back to them.

>>737512295
The wii u was a flop and everyone stopped caring about nintendo. The 360 was a great console and everyone cared about xbox. Just comes down to the execution. They have a powerful armory of IP to work with like elder scrolls 6 which if exclusive can be industry and generation defining. Not saying it'll happen but they still have great options. How would sony even respond to a game like that being exclusive. It's on par with grand theft auto as a tier 1 franchise.

As someone who has bounced between all the big players:
>Nintendo
Genuinely cultish brand worship. I enjoyed their games a whole bunch, but man, the fans are freaks (Derogatory). I've never seen a people cheer on a corporation fucking people over more than this one. $80 games are also just egregious.
>Valve
Adding on to your points, I still remember when Gaben tried to support paid mods. He backtracked pretty fast, but the moment remains.
>Sony
Popularizing the gay retard art piece genre. They used to make some of the coolest, most varied games around. Now all they seem to do is cinematic over the shoulder slop. They became the vanguard of DEI and 'This game isn't for you'.
>Xbox
Xbone debacle including using your Kinect as surveillance. Gamepass promoting the greater 'You will own nothing' plan. Killing off exclusivity.

For reference, I'm currently on a Series X. I've had a DS, a Wii, a Wii U, a PS2 through 4, and a toaster PC. They all deserve ire.
