@Isolte i think you underestimate how passionate gamers can be, especially its for a console they think it’s their life, it’s stupid and unhealthy but if it makes them feel better they do them
besides game pass is a part of the console experience if they stop making consoles, they’re going to be boycotted to bankruptcy, you may think people would be mature enough to understand and move on, but we know people would have gotten angrier for less, if the xbox faithful are angry now, if they quit making hardware, they might flatout storm microsoft
of course the xbox faithful are hoping for the best, but you have to understand that microsoft would get crucified by the media if they stop making hardware, especially since they have the money to support consoles, we shouldn’t act like we know what microsoft is going to do, yes console sales aren’t going well as xbox fans hope, and the console war mentality is console sales mean success but exclusivity isn’t working as well as it’s used to
@Coletrain also, i think they’re afraid of the pr nightmare that would occur, i mean if the media is criticizing them for their actions now, imagine what would happen if they actually announces that they’re quitting hardware, the fans would be livid and boycott them to bankruptcy. I have seen people get angry for less things
You know what you guys’s issue is, Mob Mentality, and if it goes go against the current mentality, people who their own take is considered the enemy, even you’re not aware of it
If you’re so angry about it, it’s fine, just don’t be downers to people who don’t mind console wars, there’s more to life than worrying about a plastic box, and i’m saying as a person who own all the consoles
@IOI that’s something i agree with, not everyone is willing to have a reasonable conversation about something, if you feel frustrated too, tell it to microsoft and move one with our lives, if you keep talking about it everyday afterwards, then you probably have a problem
@oopsiezz there are facts that prove the opposite is true, just saying, you don’t want to look them up, because you don’t accept that you could be wrong
@LostInBlue0 right, all the complaining from fans all around the world is not going to get them to change their minds, besides they don’t seem to feel that consoles wouldn’t be threatened too much
@Browntrouser also we don’t know what could happen in the future, if you so fixed on the idea that console sales are the only measure of success, go over to playstation
@Isolte i agree, we should just play games on our preferred platform, and it’s clear that xbox is still doing hardware, so unless they say otherwise, we shouldn’t get worked up everytime
and don’t call me a shill or white knight, i understand you want xbox to improve hardware sales, but there’s other ways to help that instead acting like xbox is dead everytime you see hardware sales decline

Re: Ex-PlayStation Boss Compares Xbox's New Strategy To SEGA, Says It's A 'Balancing Act'

Re: Ex-PlayStation Boss Compares Xbox's New Strategy To SEGA, Says It's A 'Balancing Act'
I mean it’s silly to have full on mental breakdowns over consoles, doesn’t apply to everybody but it’s true
