Re: Xbox Is Giving Away Free Gift Cards To Celebrate Spring 2026

Romans12

I did receive a $5.00 gift card which is about as useful as anyone offering a $5.00 gift card when you are not in the market to buy anything. Something to get the customer thinking that they are getting a deal. lol. Marketing is such a joke. Keep your $5.00. Send me a free game or something I will actually use. There's a reason why Microsoft is worth a few trillion dollars. Bye.

Re: Rumour: Microsoft Might Not Launch Call Of Duty 2026 On Xbox Game Pass

Romans12

Well, the last COD was trash. I played it for one hour, quit and uninstalled it and I haven't played it since. But, I think they have to release it on day one. If not, then it won't stop with COD. That will just be the trend going forward. Certain games will not launch on GP when they are released. And then it's no different then PS Premium. I think that's the only thing Microsoft has on Sony right now. But couldn't care less either way. I don't subscribe to GP consistently.

Re: Talking Point: You're The New Head Of Xbox, What Do You Do Now?

Don't show my full hand of cards -
1. Don't announce that we are behind Sony and that we need them. Microsoft is a multi-trillion dollar company, Sony is not. Figure it out.
2. Some things must be kept exclusive - Halo and Gears should be only on the Xbox. If the Xbox doesn't have a big enough player base, make it so it does. In other words, be better. The better you are, the more success you will have. See how that works?

Re: New Xbox Boss Makes Official Statement As She Takes Over From Phil Spencer

Romans12

Matt Booty was the one who was next in line for this position. Not sure who this woman is. Not sure a woman should be in this role. I highly doubt she is a gamer, which Matt Booty is. At this point, I doubt any real positive changes for gamers will be made when it comes to the Xbox. It's all about revenue for them. I'm still pretty much done with the brand.

Re: Poll: As Things Stand, Will You Be Buying GTA 6 On Xbox This November?

Romans12

Hell no. I'm getting it for my PS5 Pro. The Xbox has made a career out of slipping on banana peels and stepping on rakes. One stupid decision after another. Namely deciding to put Halo and Gears on the Playstation. Because of that, I vote with my wallet. Any game I want to purchase, I do so for my PS5 Pro. My Series X is used for old games and my 4k movie selection.

Re: Talking Point: Will The Next Xbox Console Be Revealed In 2026?

Romans12

Does anyone really care? The Xbox brand is irrelevant. I mean, Forza, Fable, Gears and Halo - all new games coming out on the PS5 on day one. Kinda pathetic for Microsoft. I don't care how much money they are making. Customer loyalty should count for something. So no, no one cares about the next Xbox. It's irrelevant.
