Microsoft should have employed Sony's approach to this by releasing the Series X with a disc drive and one without the disc drive.

That way there is parity and since Microsoft can afford to take the hit on hardware knowing they will make their money back on Game Pass, sell the Series X Disc at $499 and the disc less version at $249 instead of $399.

This pushes people to go digital and thus locking them into the Game Pass ecosystem and possibly gets gamers from Nintendo / Sony to try out 4 generations of Xbox for $250. Those that still want their discs, can get the $499 as it is now.

Fantastic games = Great Sales

The fact the bug fixes and notes are this long for game that was released last year, just goes to show the rotten state the game released under.

This will inevitably show up on game pass but not at all surprised it was a critical and commercial failure

@BowsersBuddy

Just beat it. Plays great. Had no issues. Just bear in mind that you have to use a technique on the last mission to make it to the helicopter (guides on youtube how to do it)

Patiently waiting for Saints Row 1 & 2 along with the Final Fantasy 13 trilogy to go on sale.

COD4 Modern Warfare on Gamepass is all I want.

Few people if any are going to miss Avengers

@Serpentes420

Likewise. Gamepass is enough for me. No need to buy xbox games ever. COD is coming to gamepass soon anyway

Talk about going out with a whimper

The leaps between generations are only going to get smaller and smaller.

Doubt we will ever have that significant jump from PS2/Xbox to the HD era with the PS3/360 ever again.

@HonestHick

Hit the nail on all 3 heads.

ABK makes sense for dominating Mobile, PC and console with COD.

I hope all redundant staff are given hefty severance packages. They can most certainly afford it with the money they got from duping the public at launch of Cyberpunk 2077

Got my first xbox last month (Series S) Always wanted to play Gears of War and currently on the 2nd one and having good fun on it. My memories are still fresh

Patiently waiting for Saints Row 1-2 and the Final Fantasy 13 trilogy to go on sale.

Hope this trend continues as there will be many first time ever xbox users this generation

There is going to be an explosion of COD players once it officially gets added to Gamepass Ultimate soon.

Subscription Models are the Xbox way going forward so not at all surprising.

Gamepass Ultimate with the conversion 3:2 method and you don't need to buy a game for years.

@Jacket_p

The first time I heard about the game was with this supposed "boycott".

Loved what I saw and once the reviews rolled in, got it immediately.

@Tonmoy

Agreed. Tried playing AC Odyssey and the grind to level up had me quit midway through. You can tell they are deliberately trying to get you to buy the time saver microtransaction.

I'm just patiently waiting for the Old COD games to be added to Gamepass.

For those that haven't already done so, might as well do the 3:2 Xbox Gold Conversion Method now so you have Ultimate locked in for the foreseeable future.

@PapaGlitch

Agreed. COD4 was their Magnum Opus. The COD games between COD4 - Modern Warfare 3 were all pretty solid.

Final Fantasy 13 Trilogy
Saints Row 1 & 2
TimeSplitters Future Perfect

Hope they get put in the summer sale (Got my first xbox ever last month-Series S)

Expect Microsoft to buy SEGA or CD Projekt Red next.

The consolidation continues.

Get 3 years of gamepass now before the inevitable price hike using the Xbox Gold method.

PS5 & Series S Owner

Looking forward to savings $100s of dollars by getting Call Of Duty, Crash and whatever else comes to gamepass Day 1.

Not loyal to either brand. I just want to play games.
