Xbox is dead outside of being a different logo for windows. I think it’s obvious to anybody remotely watching the industry that all they really care about is game pass at this point. Even at the game awards, they were essentially absent outside of a game pass ad, and recently put a finance guy in charge of Zenimax.
I would love to say this won’t end well for them, but they probably crunched the numbers and determined they could continue the same revenue with minimum effort. Enough people will probably stick around on game pass, even after the recent hikes, to keep it as a solid revenue stream.
I sold my Xbox six months ago after it sat collecting dust for a year and a half, glad I did.
But what if we cram it full of AI bloat/spyware? Could we entice you then?
