Re: In The US, 66% Of Xbox Series X|S Sales Were Digital-Only In 2025

I'm surprised there's even that many physical game sales. Any store I go to has more Nintendo games but even that only 2 shelves while ps and Xbox have 1 each. GameStop's nowhere to be seen anymore, leaving Amazon.

I went all digital since 360 but now that I read the tea leaves, I'm starting to think it will be all cloud by that magic "2030" milestone and they'll be giving us atats on our emissions/carbon score along with our achievements and hours played recaps.
Knowing how companies roll, I'm thinking they're going to borrow Nvidia's model. Everything is cloud because they acquiesce us to shortages if it's not unaffordable hardware and aside from the catalog, we'll be paying for higher resolutions and capped session times.

Re: Talking Point: How Much Time Have You Spent Gaming On Xbox Consoles This Year?

Mostly a mix of PC and Pro/Portal for me. The latter combo just works for me. Switch 2 was a disappointment and Ally X while good, is too cumbersome with full windows to be convenient. SEMeries X used to be my main but all their priority to shoehorn messaging killed their 1st party for me and then all the news throughout the year was just demoralizing and had me spending more on PS5 versions of games I would otherwise buy on xbox
