You low key one of my favorite posters. Such a funny guy

While the CMA’s original analysis indicated that this strategy would be profitable under most scenarios, new data (which provides better insight into the actual purchasing behaviour of CoD gamers) indicates that this strategy would be significantly loss-making under any plausible scenario,” it said.

The CMA does a whole ass investigation and concludes the biggest game on earth being exclusive to xbox wouldn’t make enough people switch. No plausible scenario where it makes sense for microsoft to make the game “exclusive”

But naw, i’m just making it up :comeon:

Youre arguing about 17 different things. Are you schizophrenic?

Nope they trash and refuse to learn. If they made a competent Gears 6 I’d be there day one, but this new Microsoft garbage. Putting mobile store tactics into your paid AAA game, :camby:

I could give a fukk about perfect dark, fable, or anything ABK related. Nothing they making says I need this console.
This

Drop that Gears 6 and improve the gameplay

So basically what I took away from the whole interview was

1. Expect games ranging from borderline mid to good but not great games.

2. Thanks Xbox fans but Microsoft is concentrating on the services, so you can play anywhere.

3. With the brain-dead AI, graphical glitches and a near empty open world, Microsoft thought that the game would review higher.

Phil Spencer has checked out. I expect he'll walk before the year is through.

Oh yeah, wait for the next Xbox showcase for more great games

@Volt negged me for saying Sea of Thieves is Rares most successful game.

It quite literally is the most popular and most profitable game they’ve ever made, by far.

Actual numbers and facts are upsetting in the face of stan narratives. That ain’t my fault :manny:

First of all, GOATendo keeps dunking on all of y'all :umad:

Second, how come the one era the Xbox had big dog games to compete with Sony, they wound up close?

This brand is cooked. Stick a fork in it. Microsoft might as well just throw away the pretense of competition with Xbox. Blow up the brand and try to sell GP as "Microsoft Game Pass" to everyone, become a straight up publisher, whatever.

The head of Xbox just walked in and said they can't compete, so don't. Go full Sega. :manny:

Oh wait... They don't have IPs to do that shyt either. :umad:
