Re: Talking Point: Do You Think Xbox Will Ever Stop Making Consoles?

It's inevitable that Xbox will stop making consoles they all will eventually sooner rather then later. It's not a bad thing either. Xbox will just be the first to do it. They've already shown us that they are serious about the cloud your are able to play on phones, tablets, TVs and pretty much anything else. They are no longer in a (console war) it's not about that it's about their ecosystem Phil has said that from his mouth that they've lost that battle and that is fine. It does not matter how many consoles they sell anymore it's about how many players they have playing and the time and money spent in their ecosystem. If that means putting some of their games on other platforms that just brings more money to their ecosystem. You're still getting the games in GamePass for that low price and the other platforms are paying full price I don't understand why that upsets some people. I do disagree with the statement that was made about the other major platforms would have to accept GamePass on there stuff. There is no need for GamePass to be on those platforms damn near everyone who owns those platforms also owns a smart phone, or tablet and a TV. They've said they will expand beyond just Samsung TVs in the future. I'm a Nintendo fan since the NES and I have loved Xbox since I bought my first one in 2016 The Xbox1. I'd played them since the original but never owned one personally. When I heard the things Phil was saying about backwards and forwards compatibility with games and accessories I was so glad to hear that because it was what Iwata was doing at Nintendo before he passed and they dropped all that for the most part. Xbox is in a great place right now regardless of what is reported by so called journalist and the social media warriors. Xbox is winning be happy and just play games there are tons of them out there to get into.

Re: Poll: How Many Xbox Games Have You Actually Bought This Year?

@Kilamanjaro I didn't know there was a weekly verification, I've never heard of it. That is insanity. The vast majority of my Switch games are physical...well so are my Xbox games but I am acquiring more and more digital games on Xbox because of the forward compatibility I know what I buy will be on the next console and I don't have to change discs when I want to play a different game I'm getting old and lazy. I think my time with each console is pretty close. I love Nintendo IPs and Gamepass is the best thing in gaming now. I like being able to play anywhere as well. My Nintendo handhelds always got tons of use as well as my Switch. I bring my Surface tablet with me to play Xbox games.
