This is the future lemmings want Where your gaming library is held ransom behind a monthly payment. Don't like the prices changes? Ok you're free to leave, but you walk away with nothing. Greedy corporations love schmuks like this.

The business model the industry has used for decades is problematic right around the time the maker of your favourite console started a subscription service, funny how that works. As Jerry pointed out there are worse business models for the gamer of which you conveniently seem to ignore. This is just repackaged "always online". You only get to play what games Microsoft dictates as they move games into and out of the service. If you want to play a game at any point it begins with an immediate payment to Microsoft corp. If you're a casual player who only dips into games o

So Activision went looking for a buyer, but nobody other than MS wanted them? And Activision wanted anyone other than MS to buy them? This is like when a 4/10 woman is being pursued by the balding, obese Star Trek nerd, and she's trying to flirt with all the chads but none of them want her so out of fear of being alone she relents and hooks up with the loser that stinks of body odour

Microsoft failed for 20 years to make a compelling or interesting product, and despite lemmings hypung up new studios and new games nothing of worth has materialized. The only way Microsoft can compete is to spend close to $100 billion dollars buying out other publishers. It goes to show Microsoft as a company knows nothing about videogames, doesnt understand games, can not see nor grow talent, all they can do to stay afloat is buy things that are already a success. Why on Earth anyone would want this company dominating the games market...why you'd have to be a complete

What like one guy as far as im aware? Theres a difference between a single pedo and a shady chairty that always seems to be connected to organizations that as a whole commit abuse on an industrial scale. Lets not forget about Gates connections to Epstein. Once again you're retarded. Like fuck you lemmings are dumb.

What kind of dick tuckery is this? Rent-a-retard got killed ITT

Funny how gaming moving to nothing more than a subscription service became a good thing right around......ooh right around the time Microsoft put all their eggs in the subscription basket. I'm sure that's just a coincidence. They did the same with online gaming. Thats all Microsoft has ever pioneered in the industry, we've gone from full games to a subscription to play, a premium to play online, and plenty of Microtransactions along the way. Microsoft couldnt give a shit about making a quality product they just want to milk you for everything you're worth.

So what are you saying? That whoever has the most money gets to buy everything else and own the world? I don't even know why I bother with you lemshits you clearly don't have the intelligence to comprehend any of this. Carry on thinking you're elite because your eletronic devices made by children in a Chinese sweatshop have a specific logo on them.

The problem there is Sony didn't play dirty, at least not compared to Microsoft standards. Microsoft just had a shitty uninteresting product and couldn't compete. There was always the chance to provide competition. This is just Microsoft throwing around money they cheated from decades of abusing their Windows monopoly and gaming will eventually just be Microsoft, Google, Facebook, Amazon etc with shitty streaming services.

Most normal people see trillion dollar megacorps buying up everything and consolodating an industry under a few big players as a bad thing. And then there's Vini

Unlike you, I dont live life through rental services

FTC wont do shit they played softball with Microsoft on Windows. We could go into connections between child abuse and organizations the Gates foundation funds too but that's a whole other story.

It's interesting how long lost posters like Tranik and shittyboy came back the moment they heard this news despite not posting here for years. Like somewhere IRL tjey heard this news and thought "I must post on systemwars and own the cows!" Actual no lifers

Lemmings would rather see gaming die and become gatekeeped by a monthly payment to Microsoft Corp than have any other console outsell Xbox. Let that sink in.
