Is XBOX back?
Who was that xbox exec that said it wasn't a last minute despite the fact every single evidence is pointing towards a last minute call.
The problem for me is the association with PC. Switch is the only console worth owning because everything else comes out on Steam except snoyslop which comes out on Youtube.
>>740781223>Console exclusive So no exclusive?
Why did they use clock emojis
>>740781463Only nerds fork out 2k for gaming PCsPeople need to stop equating the two
>>740781463>sony games get rave reviews on steam>suddenly when they don't come out on steam they're Bad and No One Wanted Themfox and grapes
>>740781223well they certainly found money to pay for bots telling us that xbox is back
>>740781539Urgency
Make Banjo Threeie exclusive and it's over
>>740781585>all the 200 people who bought Marathon liked it!!It's that defense again...
>>740781539It's reverse psychology to lower expectations>timed exclusive?>guess what? no, it isn't! amazing, right?
EXLOOOOSIVE
>>740781539Because the game is Clockwork Revolution or whatever the name was. They did the same with gear emojis for Gears
They should call the next console Xbox eXclusive
>>740781223Xbox had been garbage long before they started releasing games on PS5. That was a very recent development. It's such a ridiculous astroturfing campaign that xbox is somehow going to be good now that that's reverted. They're getting rid of a symptom, not the disease.
>>740781682they've already said multiplayer slop will continue being multiplatform
>>740781223they said this about starfield too
>>740781223.... yes
>>740781223if I have PC why should I buy an xbox. If they can’t answer that question they can fuck off. And yes I am arguing for PC to get less games.
>>740782172Because acting like the normal mass consumer spends the money to build gaming PCs makes you retarded
>>740781526Microsoft also owns the PC.
Have they actually showcased anything worthwhile? I was half expecting a new console reveal with an early release date to get the jump on the PS6, but it was just a mediocre lineup of almost entirely multiplatform titles.Honestly, it's going to take something really ballsy to get back in the game at this point. They need a loss-leading model, or at the very least something less Jewish, to attract a huge following and make Sony feel compelled to respond.It's make or break. That nice lady needs to get up on stage with her magnificent smile and charismatic demeanor and deliver the Apple '07 keynote of video games. Anything less is just another 10 years of mild success, if not outright closure of the brand.It's crazy because they have so much potential with their established history, monetary backing, and the adversity they're facing. It's a perfect opportunity for them to do something that will absolutely throw this shithole industry up in the air, and I'm hoping they do it. Funniest fucking thing they could do is just embrace "gamer culture" like pic related. Not that psuedo, all-inclusive bullshit marketing teams try and prop up.Market the brand as effectively having zero censorship and a return to form for old school trash talking, and hire a new team to completely reboot Call of Duty to its glory days, where the craziest skin were gold guns for as an achievement for being a completionist, with Warzone as a separate, unattached entity in the background. I guarantee those moves alone would sell consoles.
>>740782172Being able to play an xbox game on either an xbox or PC on a single license is a pro-consumer move and the fact that Sony isn't shows just how evil they are
>>740782157over/under on these hitting PC in 3 years?
>>740782340>a mediocre lineup of almost entirely multiplatform titlesAre you talking about the state of play or
>>740782262How are they stopping me from playing it on Linux?
>>740782510pro-consumer =/= more sales
>>740782539When he says console exclusive it means as it pertains to consoles, they're all on PC
>>740782613How is allowing a game on two devices from 1 purchase "more sales"
>>740782653i gotta get me one of them PC gizmos!!
>>740782742Got $2,000?
>>740782340Hey I thought of a great idea to follow up this theme>Market brand as multiplayer-focused>Emphasize return to form for multiplayer games, including split-screen co-op titles, not just online multiplayer>Console comes with two controllers by defaultThere, I fixed your fucking brand identity and attracted a huge marketshare to your console without the explicit need for a lineup of exclusive games.Honestly that's the big misstep these companies are making in general; exclusivity. You shouldn't want to trap IPs on your console because it makes people feel like they're paying to be in prison.You need to make people want to play EVERY game on YOUR console. I.E. when those exclusives do come around, make people think "Damn, I wish that was on [OTHER CONSOLE] cause it's so much better.">>740782584Both, along with the Direct. All of these companies are embarrassing. Geoff Keighley is a fucking nonce and needs to go out Zampella-style.
>>740781870But marathon is one of the most popular Sony games on PC
People need to stop pushing the narrative that PS5 owners have expensive gaming PCs lying around. They don't.PCs have nothing to do with the industry the Xbox console is competing in.
>>740782587It's only released on Windows, retard. PC means Windows computers. Mac, Linux etc aren't included.
>>740782930>one ofthere's only like 10 games they ported
We need competition
>>740783078And it's like top 2 or top 3
...Do people really think that all the games shown at the XBox Showcase are XBox exclusives? They do this all the time; if its a console release not premiering during the Nintendo Direct or on PC, XBox simply doesn't bother putting their logos on. Do you idiots really believe that Persona 6 is going to be an XBox exclusive?
Jeeta princess said they'll go back to PS5 ports when Xbox remains a failure.
It's kinda funny. Cash strapped Sony were resting on Microsoft propping up their library and filling in the blanks.After lulling Sony into this false sense of security, Microsoft performs the ultimate rug pull and leaves Sony in a panic induced disarray.Microsoft knows Sony doesn't have the money to ramp up production to fill in the droughts in their catalogue that they've left with while they're able to eat costs in a well timed war of attrition.A masterstroke deserving of a standing ovation.They'll make documentaries about this.
>>740781556true, true
Asha wasn't playing around
>>740781223No, they don't have exclusives that can drive hardware sales.
>>740783664I think people thought that for like one day because of the game's color scheme and the fact that Sony didn't/wasn't allowed to upload the trailer to their media accounts until 24 hours after the Xbox Showcase.Yeah, we live in an era of timed trailers. That's what these niggerfaggot companies are concerned about. Sony does this shit too, mind you. It's all just a bunch of malarkey.
>>740783946No ones playing the cube game bro
>>740781223They're not back until they make some gamesDo you guys even realize how many IP microsoft own now? They don't make any new games in any of the hundreds of franchises they own so people forget that microsoft are the ones squatting on them. But they're the ones who have an exclusive government-granted monopoly on making games in those series. And they're ALL FUCKING DEAD.Because microsoft don't make any fucking games. They buy up the rights to games by the dozen but not to USE them. Not to make GAMES in them. Just to fucking own them and do NOTHING WITH THEM
She only has 1 year to fix Xbox.
Reminds of that period when Microsoft bought Activision and everyone was conviced that that was the deathblow to Sony.And then they proceeded to shoot themselves in the foot 100x times.This time for real tho, they back
>>740782708it’s not that’s my point
>>740781223Everything is a timed exclusive. Xbox will gladly put it out again on their next console. Plus Xbox releases everything on PC, it doesn't have any exclusives.
>>740784417>Source: trust me bro
>>740784506Well I mean it almost did. After the whole activision thing Sony pivoted hard to live service titles and bought Bungie. They had like 11 games in the pipeline for this stuff and it all flopped tremendously. 5 years into PS5 and they have nothing to show for it. Xbox however never capitalized on this once throughout those 5 years
>>740781223No, I see no reason to get one.
>>7407849031) Do you own an expensive PC?If yes read A, if no, read BA) you're not the target demographic/part of the conversationB) you're retarded
>>740785042I have a PC and a SW2. Anything of actual relevancy I have access. PS and Xbox offer nothing but woke dei cuck shit.
>>740785232>A) you're not the target demographic/part of the conversation
>>740781223It’s strange to see the very people who used to argue so vehemently that games should be released on all platforms—because exclusives are anti-consumer and ultimately hurt game companies—now loudly defending Xbox exclusives. No, actually, everyone knew all along that it was just a convenient excuse for the anti-PS crowd who kept getting beaten by the exclusive lineup of Sony.They’d probably defend even third-party exclusives now saying something like “It’s fine because it’s also coming to PC” or whatever.I also hate that ridiculous meme claiming “PS5 has no games” because for some reason, they never say the same thing about Xbox. Twitter is currently overflowing with this kind of double standard.I actually suspect that the true motivation behind these Xbox fanboys is nationalism. They simply cannot accept that a foreign platform like the PS holds an advantage over an American company’s platform on American soil. Incidentally, this is also one of the reasons Epic is viewed with such intense hostility. According to their logic, since healthy competition in the market benefits consumers, there’s absolutely no need to view Epic with such hostility or act as if they’re licking Steam’s boots. Except for one thing, the fact that Epic is a foreign-owned platform.This is why I dislike these “le chud” Xbox gamers.
>>740785781You have a small penis
>>740785781Anon finally discovers every was cheering their teams, not their practices.
>>740785781>>740785941samefag
>>740781223Why are they suddenly trying now? They've had years lol
>>740785781>what being buckbroken by BWC looks like
>>740785992They think they can turn things around, yet the game they chose to have as an exclusive looks like complete dogshit
>>740784417are we really at a point where retarded anons from here are believing random redditarda
>>740786080>yet the game they chose to have as an exclusive looks like complete dogshitI agreeNeeds more cube
>>740786127All hail the CubeStation
>>740785992>>740781223Nothing changed, they've been doing this all the time.>pay for all the trailers for games that aren't even exclusive>XBOX WONIt's just PR and bots/shills>>740781556>People need to stop equating the twoVery much truthful, saar
>>740786080It has DEI mutts tho
>>740783931>Matt Booty and now >Matt Balls lmao
>>740785781I largely liked Sony’s exclusives from the 90s to about 2008. I think that’s the greatest difference. For Xbox it was only a gen and a half, but they’ve been such a joke since the late 360 era that they haven’t even been worth mentioning alongside the other two. If you’re a fan of Sony then that should say something that Xbox doesn’t get that same criticism, because they aren’t even worth mentioning.
>>740781223What's up with snoys begging for xbox releases? Are they tired for pretending they enjoy games starring elderly females?
>>740781223>a company paid a lot of money to make a game exclusive to its console>this is supposed to make me excitedbut why?
I can wait 15 years for emulation.
Being a retard and LARPing as if you know shit about jew finance is fucking embarrassing. Talk about video games or fuck off.
didn't the 'non-exclusivity' only last a year or so.I will only believe it once they pull CoD and TESV from PS
>>740781223>>740783931It's funny how the former AIslop director has taken a more competitive approach with the Xbox branch than the former "gamer guy" CEO
>>740786093Anon we have daily posts that rip shit straight from twitter and post it here, with the same result.This has long since been happening.
>>740785781>I also hate that ridiculous meme claiming “PS5 has no games” because for some reason, they never say the same thing about Xbox.Gee, it's almost like Xbox has been a living corpse for years now.
>>740781463>Switch is the only console worth owning because everything else comes out on SteamExcept Switch isn't worth owning because Nintendo hasn't made a game worthy of being played by anyone older than 7 in 20 years.
>>740784417The problem is that unless Asha knows how to accelerate development of games such that they take less than a year to make again like they used to, she's borked. Videogame timescales have stretched out to infinity. No amount of deck chair arranging in under a year is gonna save her, the only thing that will is whatever Phil left behind for her that he put in motion 8 years ago.
Feeding time is over for Sony
