Certainly done for me. I’m sure there will be hardcore brand loyalist like meach or people in North Dakota still on xbox


The only thing that's really stopping me selling the series X is being able to play old games at 60 fps.


I wonder when the PS5 Pro is coming? I guess another year?

@MeachTheMonster it's over for Xbox man just admit it

Why can't you admit this?

:laff:

The games are all gonna be multiplat and they are gonna be publishers now it's obvious.

What do you think the announcement will be?

Let’s do it this way.

Somebody put your money where your mouth is.

If they cancel the xbox name, and announce avowed for Playstation, i’ll buy avowed for you on playstation.

If they don’t, you buy FF7-2 for me.

Let’s do it. Stand on cac tweet business :ehh:

When the bad grammar echo chamber don't work and the normal Microsoft OneDrive back-up ain't swooping in pity-dap, one is left with nothing to do but the best they can. As sad as it may be.

That people ain't see this coming when it's literally Microsoft's hardware MO is...

TBH it's adorable. The amount of hope y'all invested. Quaint.

Shame about how that's working out tho :francis:

“Some games will come to other systems on a case by case basis, as has always been the plan. We got new hardware in the works
I hope not.
They can't even move the current hardware.
And moving the current hardware is pointless since there's no software.

That'd be a worse idea than going full third-party. It's a double-down on failure and the dead last thing consumers want from them is more junk machinery to buy when consumer confidence is at an all-time low. Any nikka who buy any new 'Xbox' hardware got Stockholm Syndrome

This isn’t true. Console wars cac tweets will tell you this, but by the numbers Microsoft is making LOTS of money off their console business and last quarter was their best selling hardware quarter in a long time.

At around 30 million sold. Series X/S has already greatly outsold any of the consoles we view as “failed” in the last.

They will end up with about 50-60 million sold for the gen which is squarely within xbox usual range.

the difference is, their revenue has gone through the roof, without increasing console sales.

You are in the internet console stan misinformation bubble.

Most people DGAF about any of this. Xbox will always be a strong brand in America and certain markets around the world.
