Give me sea of thieves sales without Gamepass. :unimpressed:

Sales doesn't matter when you have a service such as Gamepass. The game succeed expectations and probably made more money than any other titles due to 15 million users and counting. The game is a service. shyt the game sold 1 million copies on PC in one month.

You are a smart man you know rhe business strategy. Sony blockbuster title shyt is not effective breh they treating games like movies spending 500 million to create and only selling 10 million copies with no DLC Add on etc..

Add that the games take years to come out

3 games, 3 that were in development before they were acquired

Double Fine has come out and said, that MS has allowed them to add shyt they were bout to cut out. Psychonauts 2 would have been a bare bones games had it remain on a crowdfund budget. :dwillhuh:

Ninja Theory and Undead Labs were both brought in 2018. Both of their upcoming games have been in development for at least 2 years, their last released games were in 2017 or 2018. You're acting like these games were long in development prior to MS buying them. :dwillhuh:

Sony will copy Microsoft model sooner than later. Games like Sea of Theives/Forza etc... doesn't even have the cost like a Last of Us but since it is tied to a service and have add ons etc.. the money made maybe even more than a 3 year development blockbuster title

Of course you not. Typical Ponie shyt. nikkas keep saying games where Microsoft was close to dropping Xbox. Now they purchase 27 studios and have a service where it is stated AA AAA games will be released. Now it's no games or some other bullshyt.

Phil said he want games every month along with blockbusters

Y'all wierdos spend more time arguing about sales than actually playing games. :mjlol:

Glad I don't stan a particular system and realize it is shyt on both systems to offer me. Nothing wrong with Sony making blockbuster movie style games considering they are also a film studio and there is nothing wrong with Microsoft making GaaS games considering they have always been known for their software. The lanes both companies are in fit their actual business models in real life. They aren't in that big of competition with each other.
