The Xbox Series S and X will do just fine. GamePass will be a huge success for Microsoft and xCloud a nice addition.
PC Gaming will be a great part of the Xbox ecosystem, too.
Overall Microsoft will make a lot of money and be happy about it.
Let’s face it, Phil and his teams are still cleaning up the mess that Don Mattrick left. They are regaining trust and building first party studios to this day.
I couldn’t care less if Sony ...
You keep three years old articles bookmarked?
GamePass is the best thing that happened to gamers since online multiplayer. Yeah, I said it!
Still someone here to criticize GamePass?
You can still buy those games, you know that right?
What a week for Xbox gamers.
The work and the money the people at Xbox invest in their hardware, services, features and games is ridiculous.
But but they need to recoup their investments....?
According to N4G every PS5 came bundled with a $1,999 Gaming PC.
This comment is such a failure.
1st: The product you claim to have isn't even announced.
2nd: The product will be like 3 times the price of an Xbox Series X.
3rd: The game still requires you to play on a Microsoft platform: Windows.
4th: Microsoft will still appreciate your purchase for the game. Or your subscription to GamePass. I doubt they really care.
nope, too late. :(
Oh I forgot Fallout for RPGs and Prey for shooters.
What an insane lineup.
Finally.
Let’s see what they will do with it.
Microsoft can easily position themselves as the go-to console for RPGs
with
Fable
Starfield
Avowed
The Elder Scrolls
as possible exclusives.
Same for shooters by the way
with
Halo
Wolfenstein
Doom
Rage
Gears of War
Perfect Dark
...
Yet, Sea of Thieves is an outstanding success.
Yeah, like Polyphony Digital doing lots of different franchises.
Or Sony Santa Monica.
Are you saying these are lacking creativity as well?
Are Darkborn and CaptainHenry trying to convince me that Microsoft would not like me to play doom on GamePass or are they seriously worried that GamePass might not be profitable for Microsoft right now?!
You make it sound like Microsoft doesn’t want you to play on GamePass...
Will it sell Xbox consoles? Probably a few.
Will it sell GamePass subscriptions? A lot.
I doubt any Xbox fan or any real gamer is actually leaning towards Mattrick over Phil Spencer.
We both know this.
