I am a very happy owner of "Xbox360 Halo Reach Limited Editon" So... Microbe-soft needs to come up with good incentives, meaning: 1 - Dual controller must be included in the package with minor or no price increase 2 - At least 2 TB ssd must be embedded in the console 3 - Outer design & paint job must be attractive 4 - At least 3 months of gamepass gift card must be in the box
I said this back in 2020:
"Horrendously overpriced graphics card era, offers uncanny opportunity to both microbe-soft and sony. If they come up with a good value compact pc, instead of usual console. They can sell it even more than the total number of consoles in their history. It is all about the contract they make with "nvidia/amd/intel" triopoly.
With a very simple motto, like: JUST FOR A MIDRANGE GPU PRICE, YOU CAN GET A FULLY FLEDGED PC. EVERYTHING YOU NEED IS HERE
microbe-soft and/or sony could skyrocket their balance sheet.
They do not even have to include a controller to the package, as all controllers in last 25 years may easily work with it.
If (software wise) xbox series x (somehow) gets fully utilised next year, I'll be happy to witness that... I may even consider to buy it, with no disk drive and 2 TB solid state disk, if offered for a right price.
Otherwise, I'll look at the next flaghip xbox console, if such thing gets to be released.
As you know, mixed signals keep coming and makes us look like group of kittens watching very long ping pong match.
I do enjoy and appreciate "play anywhere" feature. It is lovely to (be able to) continue to games, once on console and once on my pc (rotate basis). It is a unique and comfortable, quality of life. Just can not have enough. I wish "play anywhere" feature can be also valid for bandai namco games, in years. Fingers crossed.
Mainly on my PC... But, I also use my "xbox one s" For example, I recently bought "Diablo 2 Resurrection + Diablo 3 Eternal Collection" combo. I play both on my "xbox one s" which hooked to my odyssey oled. So much fun... I can only wish, both game were supported HDR10+ (but that besides the point)
Dear friend @LogicStrikesAgain If, microbe-soft manage to come up with a "good value" solution, I'll gladly buy it. I am sick and tired of overpriced and extremely diluted graphics cards of "nvidia/amd/intel" triopoly. They refuse to provide good value options since 2017-2018. That is why I did not buy their deliberately overpriced and downgraded gpu. I have R9 380 from 2015 and not gonna buy another gpu. As I mentioned above: if, microbe-soft comes up with a "good value" pc competible solution, I'll gladly buy it.
I am happy for everyone who received the code. Not only lovely, but also meaningful gesture... Unfortunately, I'll never be honored, cause I have physical disks of "Gears of War" + "Gears of War 2" + digital copy of "Gears of War 3"
As a person, who have zero interest in handheld consoles, I totally support people to be outdoor and free. I hope it may help people to come together, share and enjoy everything in socially. I can only hope that, high price and/or windows operation system won't kill the potential. Fingers crossed.
Dear friend @Sindayl As a person who did not buy neighter "Xbox Series X" nor "PS5", I would not strech it and carelessly say "last 15 years" I happly bought Xbox, Xbox 360 Halo Reach Limited Edition and Xbox One S. I still using them along with my powerful pc. Last 15 years is not mistake as a whole. It is not typical either. There were ups and downs. Somehow, this generation failed, probably (mainly) because of the software and also some poor decision making. I'll gladly buy next flagship xbox if it turns out to be faster and stronger than PS6. More importantly, if it is priced competitively and reasonable like previous xbox consoles.
Dear friend @GuyinPA75
Thank you.
I do not expect Microbe-Soft to realize it's mistake and/or other people to join me with taking a similar stand.
I believe in freedom and it is perfectly fine anybody to act how ever they see fit.
By the way, microbe-soft's wrong decision making process (in this generation consoles), unintentionally directed me to investing for my own future, rather than wasting my hard earned purchasing power to imperfect xbox series x.
So... For that, I can not thank enough to (both) microbe-soft and sony. They (not only) saved me wasting my time and money for PS5 and Xbox Series X, (even better) they directed me to make highly yielding investments. My purchasing power keep increasing as I blissfuly clear my back log on Xbox One S + PS4 + PC games.
Can not be more happy...
As an extremely happy owner of; 1 - Xbox 2 - Xbox 360 Halo Reach Limited Edition 3 - Xbox One S I wanted buy Xbox Series X all along. But, microbe-soft did make some critical mistakes, like;
forcing me to pay additionally (around 100 $) for a disk drive which I was never gonna use
Forcing me to buy the console with inadequate storage, with a hope of I'll buy worthless seagate ssd someday. Guess what! I never bought Xbox Series X! (despite the fact that I loved it) It was a bad move to, not letting people to install, their own PCI Express 4.0 ssd they already have. Purposfuly bottlenecking the console's storage to force people to buy seagate ssd did not work. Because it was not gonna work. I did not buy it. Just like, I did not buy Xbox Series X despite the fact that I had more than 3 years of gamepass ultimate subscription. so, how profitable was for microbe-soft to not selling Xbox Series X and additional seagate ssd?
Honestly, handheld does not interest me at all. I always prefer to buy flagship xbox console which is always stronger (hardware wise) than playstation equivalent. I never regreted that I bought: 1 - Xbox 2 - Xbox 360 Halo Reach Limited Edition 3 - Xbox One S I always been happier with them, contrast to playstation equivalents. I am waiting for next flagship xbox, which I hope to be better than PS6.
I had no interest in this whatsoever and no plans to buy it. Therefore, I hardpassed it on the announcement. I'll wait for next proper souls game. I never waste my time and funds for shameless cash grab attempts. Kadokawa group corrupted From Software at very noticable degree.
To be honest... Vampirism sickness in oblivion was the big wall I hit everytime I tried to complete the game, back in the days... I was having great time, buying my own house and decorate the interior. But, vampirism sickness forcing me to stay away from sunlight and keeping me at the city sewers most of the times. It was very depressive and souls crushing. I tried to find cure multiple times but (unfortunately) never succeeded.
I waited too long (very patiently) to buy Xbox Series X without a disk drive and with adequate ssd capacity (lets say 2 TB) which never offered until my game pass ultimate subscription expired (which is around 3,5 years later). So... Despite that I was very determined to buy Xbox Series X (again without disk drive which I was never gonna need and use) but, during the years my patience consumed. I'll consider to buy next gen flagship xbox if it offers good value. Fingers crossed. Note: Despite that I never had any Xbox Series X, I always loved it. I wish, disk drive (that I'll never gonna use) and ssd with inadequate space were never pushed. Whole value and the deal is murdered upon arrival (unfortunately).
Dear friend @SuntannedDuck2 I still have Kingdom Under Fire - Circle of Doom and planning to play again this summer. I enjoyed it, back when I bought it.
I am happy that i did not rush and bought the initial models of the xbox 360 with 3 red lights of death. I patiently waited and purchased Xbox 360 Halo Reach Limited Edition. Can not be more happy.
It is just too late and very illogical for me to buy current gen xbox console. I prefer to buy next gen flagship xbox, if: 1 - Priced correctly 2 - Offers good value 3 - More powerful than PS6 (both hardware components and software wise) 4 - Have adequate size ssd for games 5 - Does not force me to pay additional 100 $ for a disk drive I'll never use. My money is ready for a good flagship console. Lets roll on to it...
@themightyant Sony says "For The Players", you say "Luxury" Believe you me, I do not like sony at all, but I am kind'a leaning towards "for the players" motto.
Windows based new Xbox with steam support sounds great (to me) if priced affordable. I am ready to buy upcoming xbox instead of an overpriced graphics card.
If Dear Mr. Phil Spencer comes up with a stronger flagship console, I'll be more than happy to buy next xbox, instead of PS6.
My funds ready.
I hope it turns out to be better, both on hardware and software wise.
...
I was preffered the very first xbox instead of PS2, years and years ago. I always been happy with it.
I am not interested in any type of hendheld, but can not wait for next beefy flagship xbox.
I am hoping that (especially software wise) it is going to be better console, unlike to xbox series x.
I played (both) on Xbox One S and PC, who knows how many hundreds of hours. Probably I almost fully consumed it. There is no reason for me to re-install it and spend more time.
Dear friend @Nintendo4Sonic Colsoles, with and without disk drive, must co-exist. For now, it is the only way we can be sure that "sony & microbe-soft" duo won't be able to abuse gamers of this world. We (all end users) are eternal friends, regardsless the type of games we prefer...
Dear my friend @Nintendo4Sonic I am also happy that world does not spin around me. I am only a mere one, among the hundreds of millions of gamers in our world. I am not saying (as I never did) physical copy of games must die. I got close to 90-95 box / disc games of Xbox and Xbox 360 But it if we include the counting PS3, PS4, PC disk games, they are close to 200 (not to mention hundreds of DVD and Blue Ray Disk Movies). My shelves are not only filled with science, scienfiction and fantasy books, but also with physical games. I respect and support the physical media games (despite the fact that I have no more additional room for new games in my house) because, I fear that sony/microbe-soft duo, may abuse gamers via the absence of the physical media. But, I am sick and tired of paying 100 $ more for the disk drive on each new console. By the way (as you know) gamers of our world lost their purchasing power. We need, more affordable, lighter, less electricity consuming, less heating, less space accupying consoles and personal computers.
We need (both hardware and software wise) powerful flagship console. 1 - It must have (both) with and without diskdrive models 2 - Adequate ssd size 3 - Reasonable price 4 - No bandatory (and seperate) subscription for online play 5 - 100% Backwards compability to all previous xbox games, along with pc games.
I stated that back in 2017 and I'll repeat again (hopefully one last time):
GAMING WORLD NEEDS CORRECT WAY OF REWARDING AND INCENTIVES.
GAMERS WOULD BE MORE THAN HAPPY TO PLAY & COMPELETE GAMES, IN CASE "SONY/VALVE/MICROSOFT" TRIO IMPLEMENTS RIGHTFUL REWARDING MECHANISMS.
ACHIEVEMENTS MUST BE CONVERTIBLE TO REAL PURCHASING POWER, WHICH CAN BE USED FOR REFUND OR BUYING OTHER GAMES.
I bought my first Xbox, instead of PS2, because it was superior hardware wise and it delivered. I still keep it and never gonna sell it. I bought Xbox 360 Halo Reach Limited Edition, not just because it's GPU was stronger than PS3's, but also games were lovely. I bought Xbox One S because it was affordable and natively supported 4K BlueRay Movies. I was going to but Xbox Series X but I was waiting for disk driveless model which never release in time. So, I am waiting for next gen flagship xbox console. I am hoping that it is going to have better hardware components than PS6. I'll gladly consider to buy it, in case it (hardware wise) it is superior and diskless model is 100 $ cheaper.
Indie games where all the creative ideas implemented to modern gaming world. Microbe-soft and sony should focus on independent game developers. Sinking fortunes to each & every AAA project are not sustainable.
I bought Xbox a few mounts after Halo 2 was launched. I also bought additional controller to play (co-op) with my friends. We were blown away... I was so happy saving money by not purchasing PS2. Games were much better on Xbox due to the stronger hardware (such as "BurnOut 3 - TakeDown" )
