        Series s/x are selling worse than the Xbox one and PS5 is selling faster than ps4. Sony is about to cut the price to 399 and have spider man 2 with marketing deals of fifa and cod. It’s literally over for Xbox they just haven’t accepted defeat.

            Anyone defending Xbox genuinely has a mental illness or on payroll. Nothing I said is a lie or not easily proven. Sony is slashing the price of their current model to clear inventory for a slim 399 model and have Spider-Man 2, marketing agreements with cod, fifa, and assassins creed.

                Xbox raised a dollar or two a month, PS raised prices 40$ a year.
                PC game pass didn't even increase.

                You're literally paying more for a worse service. You don't get new games on PS, and the game collection is a joke. There's a reason people are cancelling PS+ but not Game Pass.

                $2 a month is a $24/year increase, and Gamepass was already more expensive than PS+ before they increased the price. PS+ Extra went up by the same amount because Gamepass is not real competition for Sony like Nintendo is.
                PC is not an Xbox and nobody is buying gamepass on PC, hence why it didn't increase.

                Both services are bad, but you are actually paying for the worse one. PS+ has a better game collection than Gamepass and the only new games you get are games nobody wants to play or buy. There's a reason more people have PS+ than Game Pass.

                Switch has a library that’s missing a shitload of third party shit available everywhere else (and usually for a better price). And you need to use words like “quality exclusives” to delude yourself i to thinking your tablet is worth half a shit after everything else it does wrong.

    Are normies going to keep their gamepass sub when the bait turns to switch and they hike the price? That's the most important metric.

    Myself and many of you would have no reason to keep it, but in my experience, my friends and acquaintances have no moral issue with piracy, but won't do it because they think it'll flood their pc with Russian ransomware, so I could definitely see them using a more expensive game pass.

      Their own CEO is barely aware about what's going on in the Xbox division from reading the leaked emails. He didn't even know if they had announced the launch price for the Series X|S when the PS5 had launched.

      It's the second biggest tech company in the world, behind Apple and only because Apple is overpriced as frick.
      Xbox is just blip on the company's radar, despite how much they seem to be pushing it this gen. They can pull the plug on any moment and not even feel it.

    Good. Xbox deserves to die. The Xbox app is a giant pile of shit that is plagued with stupid issues that Microsoft refuses to fix.

    Have more than 2 drives? It breaks.
    Uninstall and reinstall a game too quickly? It breaks
    Your clock not synced? It breaks
    Do nothing? Now your gaming services whatever has gone missing and it's broken.
    Oh you completely reinstalled windows to fix it? Too bad, it's still broken. Frick you.

    Hey Microsoft, if you want people to buy your game downloading service maybe make the download button actually work.

    c**ts.

        If MS gave a frick they would have stopped the Xbox spending spree a year ago. Even if Gamepass was hitting the targets they wanted, the entire strategy is fricking moronic and makes no financial sense.

        >spend billions to secure the right to spend millions to make games for a subscription service that cannibalizes sales in an industry where first week sales are the majority of sales most titles will ever get

        It's obvious the gamepass pitch Phil Spencer gave MS was that they could turn gaming into another industry MS controls, and that made Satya's dick so hard he didn't realize it was bullshit.

    Just media fluff pieces to make consumers feel good. The final paradigm for gaming in general is porting to everything immediately and doing it well. Going to take a lot of AI heavy lifting for that. Only thing shareholders care about is growth. Once all markets are cornered it's going to be a massive downturn in hardware and studios. Then the real golden age can begin with the hardware and large studios taking a hike for the most part.
