Xbox was at its best before 2010. Its been downhill since the One came out.
You mean Kinect.
2010 is when it released and put the brand into a death spiral.
Went downhill as soon as they got rid of the blades interface
Xbots in live support rn
haha love it!
This is a good day for the gaming industry we all should celebrate
At least SEGA realised their mistake and constantly had great games, every console had amazing games even the Saturn had many great and unique games some were Japan only sadly, Xbox on the other hand seems very indifferent to public image, I very rarely see any marketing for it and most it’s big buzz exclusives are American gamer bro type of shooters, they completely have up after the 360
>not getting on the sony lifeboat while you still can
Seriously homie, sell that xbox while it's still worth something. I traded mine in today and don't regret it at all.
>not getting a pc
enjoy your lifeboat with a small hole
I'll keep it just for The Darkness, RDR1, SSX, and Saints row 1 and 2.
Already cancelled gamepass though and looking at a PS5 slim
People that sell their vidya stuff are subhumans
>t. Hoarder consooooooomer
No thanks, I have like 200 games in my library so will keep my Series X. I will get into PC gaming for next grn
i already bought a sexbox for $100 from my xbot neighbor who got so mad he went to buy a ps5. feels good too i havent had a console since the 360. neat to see a bunch of my old 360 games working. is the series x the one i can ise to emulate too?
What? You can play your old 360 games on it? I still have countless of old 360 games. I thought xbox was gay just like Playstation.
That’s the only real good thing about it, the backwards compatibility on the xbox is great.
Now the question of if they’ll shitcan the whole service soon is actually on the table
That would be a stupid decision. If I had known this earlier I probably would have bought an Xbox instead of PS5 3 year ago.
The backwards compatibility on Xbox is good. Except they can turn it off whenever they want. I got a notice when I logged into my Xbox that the “backwards compatibility outage” was resolved and I could play 360 games again. Frick this industry.
r/thathappened
I'm going Steam, actually. I will never go Snoy. I'll go back to being a Tendie like in my childhood before being a Snoy.
Microsoft doesn't give a frick if people switch to PC as Windows has a monopoly on PC gaming from the OS itself. And they already have a steam competitor.
They don't get Xbox Live money anymore though... and they already tried to bring paid online to PC and everyone rejected it.
>microsoft doesn't give a frick
Snoys give a frick and I'm not buying any Microsoft shit.
>steam competitor
GFWL2.0? That's going to fail because it doesn't have anything interesting. Take your blockbuster and shove it.
I think we all know they don't care. That's why they're having to pull out of the console run.
I'm saving for the new switch that's coming
My series x plays games fine. I'm playing lots of different games and have a massive backlog. I'm an.old man now so I'll rock out with Xbox and then maybe buy a pc or steam deck. PS5 is the first Sony console I won't own. I will never pay $70+ tip for a game. I will never play movie games or cinematic 3rd person shooters. Maybe if they have a true exclusive worth that I can't resist, I'll get one when it's a $20 game. I doubt that happens
Same here, I’m 35YO not that old but I have less time and a huge backlog, it’ll take months to play what I already have, and I play as much of BC games as current ones, I’ll just quit buying consoles and that is that, I also hate to admit it but I have a good gamerscore and achievements completion, I don’t want to switch and make it redundant
>I’ll just quit buying consoles and that is that
Not that guy, but me too. I'm only on Xbox because I've been mistreated by Sony for decades. Even with the PS2, it might he entirely my luck instead of a common thing but I had 4 PS2 consoles because they broke and my final one couldn't even play blue discs. The PS3 was poor and the PS4 absolutely worthless, but they took the few benefits it had away with paid online and a garbage controller.
I'm 33 with a full time job, I study and have a family. I play an hour or two 3 or 4x a week. The Xbox has a great library. I know the PS4 has a lot of the sane library but the fact that I can play Resident Evil 1 through 8, and half a dozen spinoffs on one platform is fantastic. That alone is a year of entertainment for me. I don't need access to more than 1k games and gamepass has made it so cheap to play new games too.
the series X is hands down better than the PS5 thanks to backwards compatibility but lets not kid ourselves and say the PS4 was worthless. The PS4 was better than the xbox one and thats why xbox is dying as a brand right now
No. It's the first console I ever sold. Literally the only game worth a damn was Bloodborne and I'm not interested if you think Spiderman or Horizon were all time greats, they could be free and I wouldn't have played them. The controller us the worst major one I've ever used, meanwhile the Xbox and Nintndo Pro controllers are the best in history.
So? I didn't have a 360 and that's still a bad experience I've had with Sony. You don't seem to understand the point - everything bad with Xbox is also bad with Sony.
>everything bad with Xbox is also bad with Sony.
Microsoft hardware used to be way more faulty than Sony
They ditched their initial varied library to focus only on Halo/Forza/Gears (all dead IPs now)
They introduced paid online and the achievement cancer
Tried to push Kinect and mandatory online down consumers throats until they were forced to backpedal
Besides buying dozens of studios they still turn to shit everything they touch
They want everyone to hop onto their rental service which would only drag down the quality of future games
Sony might have gone woke from moving to troonyfornia but they are nowhere that evil/incompetent
sony has more and higher quality exclusives even tough I hate them. But Xbox in 2020+ has the best hardware hands down lets not get it twisted
agree, both are cancer, but xbox is a more violent cancer
>Microsoft hardware used to be way more faulty than Sony
"Used to", and like I say from my personal experience Sony had had the same issue.
>They ditched their initial varied library to focus only on Halo/Forza/Gears (all dead IPs now)
They ditched their initial varied library to focus only on Horizon/Uncharted/Spiderman
>They introduced paid online and the achievement cancer
They introduced paid online and the achievement cancer
>Tried to push Kinect and mandatory online down consumers throats until they were forced to backpedal
And if this happened I wouldn't have the console, it hasn't.
>Besides buying dozens of studios they still turn to shit everything they touch
Like Sony hasn't rebooted God Of War, Ratchet etc into soulless drivel
>They want everyone to hop onto their rental service which would only drag down the quality of future games
Sony are forced to make all these tiers or PS plus right?
What a bizarre hill to die on
Microsoft sold the 360 knowing very well it was a ticking bomb, I dont see your point
that's just stupid. It's not like Xbox will just turn to dust next week. Maybe I'll buy a PS6 next gen, but for the next couple of years, I'm perfectly happy with my Series X.
>you lived to see microsoft go bankrupt against sony's domination
I never thought I'd see the day
Microsoft is fine.
Is the Xbox divison the one on the chopping block
>Microsoft go bankrupt
Anon, they are richer than Apple, they could buy Playstation and Nintendo and literally burn them without consequences.
and xbox has been losing them money for years, if they were to close their xbox section they would, in the long run, win more money
obviously the markets would react in a negative way to that at first and lose them millions
They are out of touch. Fumbled the digital library gen then the gen after put faith in scammer todd howard fast travel simulator because X360 was carried by COD and skyrim
I remember getting an Xbox 360 in like 2005 or so and seeing my first achievement popup and knowing it was fricking over 20 years ago. Thanks microsoft for ruining everything.
Literally who cares? I am a giant Nintendo fanboy and have bought every one of their consoles day 1, even 3DS when it was $250 and Wii-U, and I would be ecstatic if Nintendo announced they were going 3rd party. Do you really want to be forced to buy more shitty DRM machines? I don't get the sadness.
I don't buy an Xbox for the exclusives, they're shit. I buy it because I want a console and as a system to use it's significantly better than what Sony offers.
One day I can tell my kids....I was there....I was there when Bill Gates VaX-Box crashed and burned
What happened?
You been gone for a week? Microsoft is going full third party.
Damn that sucks, I guess they deserve it for shitting out that turd called starfield
Nothing will hurt more than bullet witch's last achievement worth 1 point. I don't give a frick about ANYTHING else
Okay, what happened?
starfield is a shitty flop fast travel simulator when it was the chosen one to save Xbox. Thus Phil betrayed the xbros and xbox will just become a game publisher after the ABK deal and make multiplatform games.
Microsoft is out of the console hardware business. The future is full digital, always online, live service.
The power of the cloud!
The Cloud!
trannies are off their meds
The only company they acquired that even released a good game was Double Fine. They deserve everything. What a fricking failure.
Has anything happened or are people still just believing one rumour over the new console leaks?
If Xbox does die I'm not going back to Sony. It took me 25 years to leave them, but 10 of those years were awful.
holy shit buy a goddamn pc already
No. I ditched PC gaming ages ago. It wasn't worth the upgrade anymore. The franchises I liked are dead. Its at a higher cost than ever. I don't have space for it anymore now that I have a daughter. I'd gave saud the sane as you 10 years ago but in the current market PC gaming offers me literally nothing.
well, you better get used to it because soon enough, pc gaming will be all that is left
I just won't game anymore. Literally not my problem.
Im going in on PC again next gen. Will keep my X since I have a frickton of games going back to 360 era.
i have 42k points you get from achievements, ammassed during both Xbox360 and xbox1 eras, the frick can i do with it?
Nothing lol and indie shovelware companies mace it possible to get 40k gamerscore in an hour or two playing a few $5 games
I just got a new pc and I realised I don't even want it... I want to go back to Xbox. But with this news, I'm stuck between a rock and a hard place.
You can save some time, let me help. Instead of posting that, try
>I [larp online]
Why do you think I'm larping? And who for? I'm fricking devastated here.
I know Xbox will persist, but it's the stab in the back that's broken me.
I know that feel. Thought about buying a PS5 to play ps4 games i have even though my ps4 works still. Blame Todd howard releasing a fast travel simulator and not skyrim in space
There isn't even "news" you pathetic little cretin
Did these bots malfunction?
what is this 'news' 🙁
xbox will survive. Its nice having a shared gamepass on PC and xbox ngl. Play your shooter games on PC and whatever works best with gamepad on the xbox
I was a Sega kid that just gravitated to og xbox though I owned most consoles every generation. Xbox was goated and eased the pain of losing Sega. 360 was good but not as good as OG. Xbone waspretry shit. It's not about exclusives but the first party titles fell off. Series x is more of the same and them buying huge goyslop devs put me off. I'll stuck it out to see new fable, perfect dark, gears 7 but if they aint hitting ill go pc and pirate indies til I die
series X is really nice due to backwards compatibility. I'll keep one forever just to play RDR1, SSX3, and Saints row 2 in 4k
Unfortunately I have a 360 around for outrun2 and jet set radio future
not going to say its worth buying the console but the Series X 4k upscaling of old games is really nice
Exactly same here, we had every SEGA console except the Saturn, we had PSX, but after the Dreamcast we just naturally got Xbox, my older brother was a computer engineer and loved it, I loved it because it seemed vaguely similar to the Dreamcast with its controller, and went from there, the 360 era is the golden age though
Engineers love xbox because it has always been the best hardware in the console business. Too bad the studios take a decade to make shitty exclusive games and the Xbox brand put all their faith in Todd Howard to make a shitty skyrim in space: but fast travel everywhere
I don’t like to blame him for that, the Xbox team must have been watching very intensely during starslop development and knew how it would turn out, Xbox is simply out of touch, they cater for American market with very “American games” and don’t market the brand outside the us
skyrim and cawadooty are responsible for like 90% of xbox 360 sales. They just said frick it let Todd Howard cook.
Its 100% his fault he had the perfect open world fomula and made it a fast travel sim dooming xbox exclusives forever.
trophies ruined gaming
The Xbone is the console I've enjoyed the most since the GameCube. I bought it about 6 months ago as a cheap entry to modern gaming and xbox games and its great. I'll buy a series x in 5 years when that too is £80
pretty based not going to lie. Series X is alluring you can play Mercenaries 1 in 4k
>Buy PC
>Within a year xbox goes third party
My bad.
Can't wait to play sea of thiefs with my xbot friends
How long will I have to wait for the ps5 to be like 250 bucks
with the ~~*inflation*~~ and Black folk, 5-6 years
When the PS5 pro drops probably
i never got the ps4 pro and the last ps4 titles like TLOU2 run fine. might just get a PS5 slim instead of waiting for pro
Without a direct competitor? Never.
Don't see the point of having an Xbox. I have in my PC the entire Xbox™ experience through an app, i even get the damn achievements and i can use my account of the X360 days. Really, what is the point of having one?
you lack like 15 to 20 original xbox and 360 titles upscaled to 4k that are amazing, Normally that would never be worth buying a console but now with the absolute state of gaming they might as well all be game of the year
The point is that it's a console I stead of a PC and that's what some people want.
didn't they promise some announcement this week? where are we officilialising all that shit?
xbox isn't actually going away. if starfield didn't make a dent in the console wars, why would you expect it to happen in reverse?
the main advantage of xbox is how cheap and convenient it is, nothing about that is changing.
I hope they will bring old xbox and 360 games on PC
will literally never happen
People were discussing about Microsoft board wanting out of the hardware industry since the XboxOne era, they probably just saw the mid results to take actions, but it's nothing new for them.
