Imma throw gizmo a lifeline

he was cooo for most of the thread



some of y’all were a hot mess tho

 

[Badmon]

1/10 this was hella underwhelming

 

[tinnyskillz]

I knew Hellblade 2 wasn’t going to be shown but I really wanted to see it

I don't think people that don't own an Xbox Series look at that lineup and say I have to have one.

Nothing has really changed.

Yeah they're locked into third place still this gen, but they will definitely be better placed for the next gen after. I can see that being a wii/360/ps3 type split especially since their studios and game pipeline should be well in place by than.

So far the only game the leak got wrong. Maybe they took it out last minute

nah, the fake concern he complains about was leaking all over the place.

Pretty much

switch doesn't count
it is literally generations behind in tech they are their own niche
Sony and MS are direct competitors since they are investing money to best or match each other tech wise
the split will be wii/360/ps3 but I think the xsx will be a lot closer in sales once the games start coming out and gamepass appeals to more and more people
the xsx might become a why not thing just for gamepass especially with all these deals
that will add up

You right, who wants to buy my series x and gamepass sub.


Trash console and service.

The Xbox showcase was pretty much what it was expected to be. Sequels to the usual Xbox exclusives, exclusive Bethesda games, and some multiplatform games. If you were already a fan of Xbox, you will like their presentation. If you didn't like Xbox before this presentation, you probably still won't.

Switch don't count because you'll be lucky to sell half as many yeah?

Microsoft bought a lemon with Ninja Theory imo. They have never been anything but average.
