to be honest, the backlash is bad now, but i’m thinking since that this has been happening across the board, it’s making gamepass seem more valuable than ever and also people are probably going to move on, of course if is enough to discourage you from supporting microsoft going forward or invest in consoles going forward, you’re perfectly within your right to do so,
we can bitch and moan about it all we want to, change takes time, you might stick with retro games and backlog if you’re so deillusioned, it sucks but it either that, stick to pc or free to play games, or just find another hobby to do
i understand during this economy, prices raising is bad for the people who can’t afford a lot of games, but for the people who would care less about what’s happening to xbox, don’t act so concerned, is this what you wanted, a sony and nintendo monopoly?
now we can just play games and deal with it until we reach that point, and i seriously doubt the compaines would just do that, that could get them boycotted to bankruptcy
@HonestHick, well, if you convinced the all digital future is all but confirmed that’s fine, i’m not going to try force you to see it otherwise, just i’m seeing it from a neutral perspective, it could happen that way, but things aren’t necessarily set in stone
also, you’re not forced buy digital right now, you can buy physical if you want to, it’s just hard to break a routine, and it’s value is the most important?
@HonestHick i understand that, but things could change, i understand that your evidence is the fact, that mostly people buy their games digitally, and the companies generally follow the market, but the demand is still there, if anything it would be niche but it wouldn’t full on die
@Rusty_Ruby that’s because the controllers are the same thing, also we don’t know, they might have a option for physical media, they’re going to get backlash from that
@Millionski, I understand that you don’t really care about what microsoft does, but i rather be flexible, and besides do these companies care about our console wars nowadays anyway?
@TheGiraffe I’m sure Microsoft isn’t doing this on purpose, it’s just the media wanting to bash xbox, because you notice they rarely say bad things about playstation
Can we just play games and wait and see what happens next, we never know what could happen in the future, and i know that we shouldn’t make decisions that we may regret later, i mean if you lost faith in microsoft and you rather switch sides to ps, it’s your choice, just don’t flip flop, and i’m saying it as a person who owns all consoles, and we shouldn’t get too concerned about console sales
also, let’s take everything we see with a grain of salt until we get official confirmation because that could be a mockup they might have accidentally put up
And to be honest this is why i don’t too get attached to these companies because everything you see console sales, you get upset and act like microsoft took your house away
@OldGamer999 it’s clear the stock issues it making you frustrated because it should be stocked by now, but there’s all sorts of things going on in the world, and there’s boycotts in countries because of the tariffs

Re: Reaction: $80 Game Prices Are Ridiculous, Adding Even More Value To Xbox Game Pass
to be honest, it makes game pass more valuable than ever, but i guess people are too cynical to understand
Re: Reaction: $80 Game Prices Are Ridiculous, Adding Even More Value To Xbox Game Pass
this is going to be a case of the xbox tax in action

Re: Xbox Unveils New 'Wake Up' Trailer Starring A Human Rat

@Ricky-Spanish i would say that’s a lie but i’m getting it’s europe related
Re: Xbox Handheld Seemingly Revealed By ASUS In New Teaser Trailer
you know what, if you want to be pessimistic, it’s okay, sometimes you feel like companies should listen to the customers more
Re: Xbox Handheld Seemingly Revealed By ASUS In New Teaser Trailer
@OldGamer999 they’re probably not expecting it too outsell the series x/s, it’s a sub device anyway like the ps portal
Re: Talking Point: Will Any Next-Gen Xbox Have A Disc Drive?
at the end of the day, we don’t know until they announce it themselves
Re: Talking Point: Will Any Next-Gen Xbox Have A Disc Drive?
also, i think we don’t have to act like stockholders
Re: Talking Point: Will Any Next-Gen Xbox Have A Disc Drive?
it’s okay to be concerned but too much concerned can sour your mood
Re: Talking Point: Will Any Next-Gen Xbox Have A Disc Drive?
now we can just play games and deal with it until we reach that point, and i seriously doubt the compaines would just do that, that could get them boycotted to bankruptcy
Re: Talking Point: Will Any Next-Gen Xbox Have A Disc Drive?
@armondo36 I’m expecting that at least
Re: Talking Point: Will Any Next-Gen Xbox Have A Disc Drive?
@HonestHick also i see dvd is making a comeback, i’m not saying you’re right or wrong, we’re just going by the general consensus
Re: Talking Point: Will Any Next-Gen Xbox Have A Disc Drive?
@HonestHick, well, if you convinced the all digital future is all but confirmed that’s fine, i’m not going to try force you to see it otherwise, just i’m seeing it from a neutral perspective, it could happen that way, but things aren’t necessarily set in stone
Re: OG Xbox Creator Shares His Thoughts On The State Of The Brand In 2025
He’s still confident in Xbox, And he’s right that things could be very different in the future
Re: Talking Point: Will Any Next-Gen Xbox Have A Disc Drive?
also, hot take, i think people take everything about gaming too seriously
Re: Talking Point: Will Any Next-Gen Xbox Have A Disc Drive?
also, you’re not forced buy digital right now, you can buy physical if you want to, it’s just hard to break a routine, and it’s value is the most important?
Re: Talking Point: Will Any Next-Gen Xbox Have A Disc Drive?
@Rusty_Ruby they didn’t actually close it, it was a rumor, i’m not defending the company just pointing out the truth when it comes up
Re: Talking Point: Will Any Next-Gen Xbox Have A Disc Drive?
to be honest, it’s the people who collect, would be bothered by this
Re: Talking Point: Will Any Next-Gen Xbox Have A Disc Drive?
@HonestHick i understand that, but things could change, i understand that your evidence is the fact, that mostly people buy their games digitally, and the companies generally follow the market, but the demand is still there, if anything it would be niche but it wouldn’t full on die
Re: Talking Point: Will Any Next-Gen Xbox Have A Disc Drive?
@Rusty_Ruby because the one and series x controller are the same, what are you talking about?
Re: Talking Point: Will Any Next-Gen Xbox Have A Disc Drive?
to be honest i think it would be possible, but i rather wait and see what happens
Re: Talking Point: Will Any Next-Gen Xbox Have A Disc Drive?
@Rusty_Ruby that’s because the controllers are the same thing, also we don’t know, they might have a option for physical media, they’re going to get backlash from that

@Millionski, I understand that you don’t really care about what microsoft does, but i rather be flexible, and besides do these companies care about our console wars nowadays anyway?
Re: Talking Point: Could Sony 'Block' PlayStation Games On An Xbox Handheld?
also, i don’t think sony would go that far just to spite xbox
Re: Talking Point: Could Sony 'Block' PlayStation Games On An Xbox Handheld?
I’m getting tired of the pessimistic attitude of a lot of people, let’s just take one step at a time
Re: Xbox Is Seemingly Hard At Work On Backwards Compatibility For The Next Xbox Consoles
there’s too much pessimism about xbox, have some positivity every once in a while

@Fiendish-Beaver i understand you genuinely believe xbox is actually going sega, but they’re not just suddenly pull xboxs from shelves
Re: Xbox Features 'Steam' Games In New Mockup UI Image From GDC
@TheGiraffe I’m sure Microsoft isn’t doing this on purpose, it’s just the media wanting to bash xbox, because you notice they rarely say bad things about playstation
Re: Xbox Features 'Steam' Games In New Mockup UI Image From GDC
@OldGamer999 also you don’t want to sound so sure, because you might look stupid if you turn out your answer was wrong
Re: Xbox Features 'Steam' Games In New Mockup UI Image From GDC
@MrMagic
i respectfully disagree, and i’m sure you’ll admit your wrong if it doesn’t happen like you thought it would?
Re: Xbox Features 'Steam' Games In New Mockup UI Image From GDC
also it’s clear that some people minds are set, and since they hate change, it would have to take a miracle to get them to give xbox chance
Re: Xbox Features 'Steam' Games In New Mockup UI Image From GDC
Can we just play games and wait and see what happens next, we never know what could happen in the future, and i know that we shouldn’t make decisions that we may regret later, i mean if you lost faith in microsoft and you rather switch sides to ps, it’s your choice, just don’t flip flop, and i’m saying it as a person who owns all consoles, and we shouldn’t get too concerned about console sales
Re: Xbox Features 'Steam' Games In New Mockup UI Image From GDC
@OldGamer999 well you should keep a open mind regardless because plans could change
Re: Xbox Features 'Steam' Games In New Mockup UI Image From GDC
also, let’s take everything we see with a grain of salt until we get official confirmation because that could be a mockup they might have accidentally put up
Re: Xbox Features 'Steam' Games In New Mockup UI Image From GDC
We don’t know what could happen, it’s possible
Re: Xbox Series X|S Sales Now Trailing Almost 20% Behind Xbox One In The US
I’m willing to agree if this is does kill the brand, but agree to disagree, and it’s clear i won’t change your mind
Re: Xbox Series X|S Sales Now Trailing Almost 20% Behind Xbox One In The US
@OldGamer999 see, they’re fixing it, and you shouldn’t get frustrated unless it’s something that genuinely does, like if there’s a outage
Re: Xbox Series X|S Sales Now Trailing Almost 20% Behind Xbox One In The US
@Millionski You should do that anyway, but if you actually get depressed over it, (not saying you are btw) besides is having fun the main thing
