Re: Microsoft Is Dropping The Price Of Xbox Series S For Black Friday 2022

I have an X for the LG OLED TV in the family room and an S for my TV in the study. It is a great little machine for a great price that can take advantage of what game pass has to offer. When the family is watching TV on our main TV or the kids are playing the switch I can just play it in the other room. I also sneak and may play an hour here or there during work hours. Got to get that one hour of quiet quitting a day!

Re: Microsoft Bites Back As Sony Reveals New 'Call Of Duty' Concerns

Lots of comments from both sides on the issue. The fact of the matter is Jim Ryan is a cry baby hypocrite. He is anti-gamer/consumer and wants to milk the PS customer out of as much money as possibly. Losing the exclusive content advantage on COD is all about the billions not going into Sony's coffers. The behind the scenes sneaky deals to keep content and games off other platforms, timed exclusives, upcharges for remasters of games, new games costing a whopping $70 and increasing the price of the console just add to this notion, among many other things.

What perplexes me is why so many loyal PS fans buy into this nonsense. "What Sony does is different because Sony buys the smaller studios and cultivates, grooms and loves them. Microsoft just wants to buy everyone because they are a trillion dollar company and this acquisition is different because it is huge. They have no games and that is the reason why they are buying everyone. It is not fair. It is not good for gaming."

The Sony arrogance is just unbearable. Let's face it. Microsoft has a vision and is on the cusp of revolutionizing gaming. Sony and Jimbo are complaining because they have to work harder now instead of using their position as market leader to manipulate their sheep. And I say this as a person lucky enough to own all three consoles. All three are great in their own ways.
