MS is opening the war chest for XBOX... after you said they were dead. No............these games are still coming to playstation. They are a third party publisher. That's what they paid $7.5 Billion for. Not to save Xbox, but to become a third party publisher and run a third-party publisher game rental service. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

They are a third party publisher and cannot win a hardware war with Sony. So they will be selling games on other platforms than their own to make that $7.5 Billion dollars back. That's called being a third-party publisher. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It makes total sense. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Papa Phil I like how he runs away from the subject in which he can't really explain the logic............and then runs to talking about Phil Spencer. Phil Spencer has failed as head of Xbox, the hardware, he's now trying to save the company by turning it into a third party publisher. Are you saying that I DON'T enjoy the fact that Phil Spencer has killed the old xbox and is now going to be working to put games on Sony and Nintendo platforms? LOL Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JonDnD 2,644 Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 I always thought Phil seemed like a good dude and he did some great stuff for xbox but I never thought he would grow a set as big as he did and KILL sony fans like this. And Nadella said there will be MORE killshots in the future . Fuck all your 3rd party deals Sony . MS is the BIG BAD WOLF blowing your shitty house down 😎 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Phil Spencer saved the Xbox brand at MS. Whatever Phil does with it... it's to make it successful. And MS is opening the war chest to make that happen... something which you said MS wasn't going to do because Phil was costing them too much money and Xbox was dead weight. And yes.. I know you enjoy Xbox games. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

They have made some moves to right the ship..... but we still have to wait and see how it plays out. Xbox is currently dead last in hardware, software and critical acclaim. That can possibly change next gen. . but as of now that's not the case Quote Link to post Share on other sites

And I'm pretty sure I told you before that all consoles are dead. That hardware is going the way of the dodo.. and MS... which Phil Spencer's leadership, is leading that focus... and Sony will eventually follow suit. Yay... Sony held out the longest on hardware that loses them money? congrats? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Of course, but I believe MS is positioning themselves to be set up favorably for the future that's coming in gaming. It's not about a single box anymore. MS knows that.. and so does Sony.

Xbox hasn't abandoned anything LMFAO... You guys said Scorpio might be their last console... but here they are with TWO next gen consoles... Xbox = brand, Console and PC = platforms, Live and Gamepass = ecosystem None of that is going away... but hey... Gamepass is a failure right... numbers will go down right.. now that people are paying full price.. right? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

MS knows that.. and so does Sony. it was never about a box... ever. It has always been about the games... the box was the thing that delivers the games to the consumer to play. Generally more boxes sold (means a larger player base for companies to sell even more games to) would lead to more support which would lead to more games for the consumer to play. But in gaming the lion share of the money is made on the games. Gaming will eventually move away from needing to own hardware.... we're still in the infancy of that. What if MS gamepass model is not sustainable in the long long run? Then what? You need a constant flow of great content, a constantly engaged player base and you need that base to grow quickly.... On the other hand it could work for them and they be the Netflix of gaming. Time will tell. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
