Xbox consoles still play all the games it has in the past, and Xbox games and hardware still have the best terms as far as consumer rights.

Only people that “lost” with regard to xbox are people who wanted/needed console wars ammo to make them feel good about their box
Every time a quarterly report comes out their hardware sales are down another 29% year over year. The market rejected Xbox and all it entails. That's why games they clearly didn't want to put on Sony hardware are coming to it. That's why the Xbox CEO that was rambling in that emergency broadcast almost a year ago talking about its "just 4 games" is now talking like there's not a game they won't put on a rival's platform.

You spent all that time trashing Sony and their style of games but when the smoke clears the brand you chose ran to them for survival because they failed on their own.

They can pull the plug any time and we don't know what their plans are to keep our games. A lot of xbox users don't want the rumroed pc/hybrid. That console doesn't make sense because you can't subsidize it and most will choose to buy games on steam instead of xbox. The logistics of that console doesn't make sense. There's no confidence with what happens to xbox users library when it comes to new hardware. Most don't care if its cloud is how you access games because people want to play games natively. All of this could've been avoided if they made play anywhere mandatory, but Phil being a half measure guy has made this all a mess

Market rejected playstation which is why they gotta release games on PC and switch :wow:

No. Claiming they said “only 4 games” is a cac tweet lie you stans perpetuate to fuel your dumb arguments.

He’s always said more games would be coming. Funny part is, yall reacted to this statement in real time. Just to come back pretending you don’t remember the shyt so you can say they lied.

You spent all that time trashing Sony and their style of games but when the smoke clears the brand you chose ran to them for survival because they failed on their own.

Crazy how these things work :wow:

The games are already playable on PC, and you can play your xbox games going all the way back 25 years ago on your current xbox hardware.

It’s sony and nintendo that has and will pull the plug on people’s content, no matter how much they “win” the console war.

You talmbout what “most care about” is just your opinion.

The facts are xbox hardware and software is still the most secure today, as far as consumer rights and privileges.

The same games you personally said were trash.

Now they leading your favorite platform.

Crazy :wow:
Clearly they aren't trash just not compelling enough to sell people hardware.
Playstation hardware down every time too 🇸🇴
