Honestly have to wonder if the naming convention of Xbox is what largely lead to people moving from console gaming.
Sorry but I didn't know there was a Series X nor do I care to learn the differences between the exact same consoles.
Just to be clear, they're 2.99mil behind the Xbox One. This late in.
Perhaps some people don't care to upgrade, I think it's more likely the entire environment was so poor that considering xbox again just wasn't gonna happen for most people, who went to Sony and had an equally pissy poor time.
It's gotten far and a ways more expensive to game on console than PC and both companies not honoring warranty definitely adds another punch to move to PC. Something breaks in your console? Welp the whole thing's a brick. PC? Change one part and move on.
Imagine being on console when they raised prices? There's never real sales or sales in general on console. All they had was that dumbass gamepass subscription meant to normalize not owning games but liscenses (Congrats on being pay piggy useful idiots btw, we're all gonna suffer because of the enablement)
That's killer to anyone on the fence. Price increases, quality drops, worse experiences, and not supported for very long. Like ya'll why the fuck is there 3 xbox one types? Why? Who's that for? If I want real performance I'll get a Pc, not a damn console. For the most part consoles never aged past the 360 era for me, they just got dementia and angry.
Like I get the pc vs console debate is dumb but my god what a way to sabatoge a long running industry almost solely by console manufacturer hands. They got one more generation before being obsolete, mmw they're gonna jump into cloud-based gaming and cut their losses with typical consoles. What Gamepass was meant to normalize.
#microsoft#console gaming#what's funny is if you're a console gamer for the PS2 gen and under a majority of PC people find that cooler#but when ya get to the online generation it's like remembering a drunken abusive night with your father#like really? The 360? Ya sure? Like. It wasn't just you. your friends. and artpieces that made the experience?#nah it was the console that normalized releasing unfinished products and hating people with any amount of standards#the one that normalized child gambling and the damn microsoft point nonsense#the platform that normalized not owning your games and theseus ship updates#The one that year after year STRAIGHT was bad releases after bad releases after bad PR after anti-consumerism#to the point that there's an entire generation of games with more budget than any generation before that are completely forgettable#like okay sure#have fun going through dud ya remembered enjoying as a kid but absolutely hate now after dud#meanwhile I'm still playing OG resident evil having a far better time than just about anything released after 2010-2012#Seriously the amount of 360 games that didn't stand the test of time at release but people gave passes for is inurmeral#You remember Black for PS2#Gun for PS2#generic ass titles and games that you remember#Dead Rising 2 is honestly the last game I think had any effort that was on 360#like otr just suuuucks in terms of themes character story gameplay and game feel and-#Seriously DR2 is genuine masterful work while OTR is a poor man's mod with a budget unutilized.#guess what came out 2010 and after and what order#You can basically look at Crapcom and see what normalization bullshit will come next#remember when Crash Team Racing and RE4RE snuck microtransactions in after everyone's reviews were out?#and CTR is considered no longer playable because of it?#what if I told you that didn't happen before those two? Like there was never an update of Absolute Pure Unadulterated Anti-consumerism#until the generation after the enabling and normalizing generation that is the 360#Much like Reagan you can point to Microsoft as the source of most issues in the industry they partake in
