That's some spin you got there Forbes.
Microsoft hardware seems to be down more than double the industry average and they appear so be down significantly more than Sony who is in a nearly identical situation in respects to it being the end of the generation.
Even the atmosphere around next gen is basically excitement for PS5 and oh Microsoft has a console too.
This is exactly it, Microsoft's own actions are killing off Xbox as a console. I'm not going to buy the next console, I already have a PC. I'll just buy a month of gamepass when new games come out if I even want to play them for $5 vs $10 on console and I won't even have to pay for live.
They are betting heavily on streaming but no one wants that. Mobile gamers aren't going to buy into it they just want stuff they can pick up and play for free for 10-1...
Why did you feel the need to reply, are you insecure?
A true alpha wouldn't have needed to reply to me.
It's weird all the "internet alpha males" I know are incels. Funny how that works. Probably insecurity.
Correction: EA has bought companies who made some of the most brilliant franchises ever.
Then they shut them down.
@wiz7191
I have had gamepass since day one I haven't bought a single game I played on gamepass.
I can't imagine many people are buying games this way, especially when most of the games acn still be had for less on Amazon or even on sale on live? It's not like it's really that great of a deal.
@Godmars290
Because they don't even understand what a union is or does.
All they know is the lines they have been fed coming from Billionaires who can afford to get their voices heard in the mass media and who want to continue to get rich by exploiting people who can't or are too dumb to fight for themselves.
When you look at the growing wealth gap in America every worker should want to be in a union. Why is this jagoff getti...

35% at retail.
@NewUser101
Yes of course there are, don't be silly.
Boy's Club, Boy Scouts, Men's Engage Alliance the National Education Administration has several programs for boys only and there are many many others, these are just ones I have know about. And there are many fraternal organizations that help men and boys with careers and education.
What is Microsoft strategy? Get a bunch of websites to talk trash about PlayStation constantly?
I like Sony's strategy more. Just be PlayStation.
What are you talking about?
Microsoft hasn't reported sales in 4 years.
That was PS2 and before. The 360 was literally the start of all that crap, when Microsoft opened the door for DLC it was the beginning of the end.
@2pacalypsenow
Your the one doing all the crying. This was just an article trying to help young girls. It should have never devolved into this.
I can't imagine getting angry over people trying to help other people learn.
@2pacalypsenow
Maybe I have a daughter an she likes games and I wanted to see this article so I could show it to her and see if she would be interested in something like that.
Do I not have a right to that?
What happened to that freedom of speech you guys are always talking about?
@winter_hill
That's so ignorant it's bound to be the most upvoted comment in the thread, congrats.
I'm sure women never shopped for their families in the past, it's totally a new thing, and I'm sure no man has ever bought a game for their kids or wives.. that's so beta having a family and buying them things.
The only person in this entire thread that has said anything about women being oppressed is you.
Ya know what the truth is, it's you people who constantly bring this stuff up.
For example I can't even think of one time where someone in the comments here has said "I wish they had made main character gay". But on a near daily basis I see some jackass like you go into a thread and say "oh I bet someone is going to complain that the ch...
@2pacalypsenow
What if that's not what it's about?
What if all it's about is trying to help young girls get an education? What if the people involved in these programs just sincerely want to help young girls? What if one of the girls is proud of the game she makes and someone tells her that her pride is just because she is a woman?
What if all that stuff you just said is just your take on it?
What if...
No, that's not what they are saying, that's what you are hearing, big difference.
All these groups are doing is offering aid to girls and women who of their own free will want to find jobs in the gaming industry.
"The reality is it’s that way because females don’t find games development as appealing...not the industry being sexist"
My god this is so ignorant. You speak for all women? All 3.75 billion of them? And what...
If you can legitimately explain to me why I should buy the next xbox when i have a PC that's more powerful already then I'll take you seriously... maybe.
Let me remind you I don't have to pay for live on PC and gamepass is only $5.
