WinB83 stands up for Xbox by scolding innocents with his economic prowess, but is it enough ?

So as we know Xboxes are sold at a loss.

We also know Gamepass is sold at a loss.

Microsoft tried to recoup with the Live price hike and you brothers bytched and complained ...

So with the eventual price hike coming for your precious GamePass, how much are you brothers really willing to pay to keep it ?

It cannot continue to operate at a loss down the line, your games division has already lost 3 billion dollars ...


What’s our eventual plan here ?

It will still be worth it at 18 a month to them. Even if they spend over 200 dollars a year on it they will just say they would spend that much on games anyway and that PlayStation games are 70 dollars.

Theyre trying to get as many people to subscribe as possible. That's the current plan, to hook people in.

Same thing as Netflix or what disney plus is currently doing. Front load the service for a cheap entry price and slowly over the next few years get it towards double the price.

I will be highly surprised if this isn’t over 15 dollars by mid-gen.

For sure, once Disney+ added star, they increased the price. Wouldn't be surprised if it reaches $20 by mid-gen.

I think, the fact that it's available on PC, is the real problem; the smartest thing they've done, they've been trying to penetrate the PC market for a minute now.
