Bloomberg’s Jason Schrier: "Xbox is a 'mess' right now, Plans change every year, Teasing "Handheld" right now"

[Legal]

Not really, at one point console gamers would have LOVED something like this not caring about developers having to do extra work.

Somewhere along the lines console gamers (Sony stans) became PC elitist and determined that the series S is holding gaming back as a whole and dumb, but in reality there is a market for it, and it's no skin off gamers back to insist that those type of options are always available going forward.

Instead they blamed the lack of generational leaps in gaming on 3rd party having to develop for the S and fast forward 4 years in and the PS5 potential is pretty much hard capped and they waiting to speed 700 plus on a pro version giving them there own little version of a PS5(S)

I guess now the PS4 and PS5 base is "holding games back".

In all honesty, the bolded could be seen simply as having an idea that could've worked when it entered development, and then the market changing once the product actually hit the market similar to Concord.

Sucks, but it is what it is. History has tons of corpses of ideas that were actually really solid in theory at some point, but ended up being the opposite in practice.

College Football 25 has reportedly helped Xbox Series S sales

College Football 25 has already been a huge success for EA Sports and it even blew their expectations away. The game has helped console sales

Series S has a market as the causals move on to current gen. The base console prices have not come down, so the people who would usually wait for them to be $2-$300 have an option.

So Xbox keeps putting out mid like Shattered Space and the response is who cares they are making more money than ever with Candy Crush and COD.

Microsoft has released like 15 80+ metacritc games over the last 5 years or so.

You stans ignore all those to talk about a DLC that didn’t sit right with 8 reviewers.

Why do you behave this way

Xbox Has an Unfortunate 10 Year Streak at The Game Awards

Xbox has an unfortunate 10 year streak at The Game Awards, but hopefully it can break it at future Game Awards events.

So how do Nintendo and PlayStation keep making critically acclaimed games at the highest level voted on by virtually every major video game outlet but Xbox can't crack that?

Doesn't matter right? Biased reviews industry wide. Just admit the L and move on. We all see it. We all know.

Now the games have to be on a sony stan chart in order to exist.

Like i said you move goalposts every time to the next stan point.

You started off talking about metacritic scores. When comparing meta critic scores some of the games on your stan list have similar scores to xbox games over the years.

Why did those games not end up on your stan chart? Even you said this

Psychonauts 2 comes from Xbox Studios and it's a GOTY level game and Halo Infinite came out and got GOTY level nods

I don’t really know, could be lots of variables. But i do know that your original point you tried to make about microsoft dropping a bunch of terribly received games is wrong.

They got to get the suits out of xbox gaming. Even the buyout was a short sighted thing even us regular people were saying it wasn't going to help them long term. Need to let more indy brehs in MS Gaming and give them a budget.

I think Phil Spencer’s exit has been long overdue, but I also feel like he’s the only thing keeping Microsft from either selling Xbox or just shutting the whole shyt down.
The industry needs all three console manufacturers healthy.
