25 million subs isnt bad especially considering their heavy hitters havent landed yet. Gamepass is such a unique proposition that I'm willing to pay premium as long as the games continue to roll in.



But at the same time they need heavy hitters not solely dope INDIE games, i'm talking big boy AAA games.

Senua II (this one gonna hit different i predict)

Fable

ES6

All have to hit or else , and i say that as someone who has Starfield as GOTY so far and (mostly) enjoys their GP catalog, it's also pro consumer as of right but im not holding my breath on a multi trillion dollar CORP to do the right thing and give the working man their value.

Nah, I think the games need to start rolling in. Without it, they're no different from PS+. if they hold true to their promise and start dropping legit AAA titles day one, im certain the number will skyrocket.


Midfield can't do all that heavy lifting by itself. No games, no growth.
I'm surprised mostly old games and indie titles got them to 25 million to be honest. Their first party studios have been comatose for a while.

Dude is kinda right...

The heavy hitters like Halo Infinite, Redfall and Starfield haven't landed... they all bricked.

Brehs, i hate to tell you, if starfield ain’t enough to boost subs and hardware significantly Hellblade ain’t gonna do it.

The first Hellblade sold 1.5 million copies (across 3 platforms), its a glorified indie title. Yall putting it on a pedestal is going to put it in the same position as redfall and starfield. There is no game from Microsoft that is bigger than Starfield was going to be

Every game can’t be the next game to save xbox

Forza is next and then city skylines. This is $120 dollars if you buy em alone. That’s well worth the game pass yearly price by themselves.
City skylines not getting it done breh. That's a very niche group of gamers who enjoy that shyt. just like MFS, great for what they are but they not moving the needle because most don't give a damn.

You bullshytting, if that shyt gets a AAA budget it will make noise. Idk about system seller but it'll definitely earn subs.

Definition of brick might have changed since I last went to college.



Seems to be one of microsofts most successful xbox series games ever. Maybe brick new slang :hubie:
