Console Wars killing the gaming industry...

There have been  many arguments about who gots  the bigger system,  people say their XBOX 360 is king, and their' Sony PS3's godly. The reason i am not naming the Wii, is because I honestly feel that it  does not deserve  to be called next generation.   In no way is that a diss to any nintendo fans, I  myself on a  Wii console. But it's really an memoir to the fans of what Nintendo truly is, an innovator. And in no way Wii is just a fad, its a new genre of gaming.  Actually getting people to be in the game.
   Comapanies that constantly   third party exclusives, timed or  peremenant are cheating the   fans of of a  great gaming experience .  I understand that hardware companies want to sell their systems for a paycheck, but what about the consumers? Aren't they important also, give them what they want.
  The console wars  are making a rift in the gaming community,  It has never been so nasty until early 2005. There was a time  where gamers could agree on games and just enjoy the quality of the games, now every piece of a video game are disected and constantly compared  and contrasted. People are  not unified as they use to be,  it's a sad time to be a gamer.
   People are constantly  bashed on forums and in real life  for  owning certain systems. Since  when did  Sony become a minority? When did the 360 become a system killer?  I  begin to think, its  time for  a unified console to rule them all that way everyone is happy.

Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.

To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.

The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.

Once they re-evaluate exclusive all will be fine….

Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.

15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.

These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
