@DaddyDuder I can't see them not doing day 1 for other systems I think the main advantage they are pushing will be along the lines of play day 1 with your gamepass sub only in Xbox hardware as PS and Nintendo won't offer that.

If their last few years is anything to go buy they seem to care less about where you play as long as you play and they want to be in as many places as possible as soon as possible PC console phone etc which one doesn't matter.

But I wish they would launch gamepass for Google TV already

@Tasuki those people are just mad cause they couldn't play sonic on their super Nintendo

Joking ofcourse.

But this is the first time I can recall a first party going multi plat while maintaining their hardware lineup and planning a successor

Sega, 3d0 both went from first the third and abandoned their hardware shortly after that's the model everyone knows.

The issue I think many people have is the fear that the xsx and xss people have invested in will be forgotten about and Microsoft will simply abandon them only a few years into their lifecycle.

By all accounts that's not happening but try telling that to someone who had a Dreamcast back in the day and not feeling like they got their money's worth.

If Xbox launches their next gen system in 2026 while only having a current gen series console on the market for five years and then PlayStation launchs ps5 pro (not a next gen system) then Nintendo launches switch 2 this will only mean one thing.

We're going to have an even longer cross gen period with barely any real world maxing out of the nextbox 26

It's 2024 and we're still seeing games ship for last gen systems and I don't feel any need to update my current gen console yet and we're here talking about a next gen Xbox it's a bit of a joke to be honest
