It comes with some games, but I think it needs a subscription to get more
The xbox 360 was a great console that had some sick exclusives, but I guess the newest one isn't doing too hot?
People have basically decided XBOX needs to die and is killing itself at this point because they (XBOX) refuse to do anything a company that actually wants to sell hardware would do. And they're not totally wrong.
they could probably fix xbox by adding AI
Hey Curtana, generate me 1 million Master Cheeks gatcha games and double the price for game pass
I think Microsoft's short sightedness, inter-department competition, and genuine disinterest in their console gaming market position is to blame for the XBox's fall. Like on paper it makes sense to make everything on XBox also on PC - that is, to everyone except the XBox division, who probably weren't able to prevent that decision from going through. Other decisions that have devalued XBox over the past decade also feel like they came from higher ups and not the XBox division themselves.
has anyone noticed that, since don mattrick said “I HATE GAMES”, xbox is no longer “HOT?”
MS' decisions around the XBox for like the past ten years have been consistently bad. The XBox One had four versions with names more confusing to customers than the Wii U and the current one (the "Series X" not to be confused with the "One X") has abandoned the idea of console exclusives and made its most attractive feature more expensive. There's also a rumor that the next one is coming out next year which if true would mean that the Series X has had a shockingly short lifespan (although it might just be another mid generation upgrade with a confusing name).
I didn't even know there was a new one.
This gen has been a pretty huge marketing failure on their part imo. Xbox One was bad enough, but "Xbox Series X" doesn't sound like a new console, it sounds like some special edition.
Yeah same, I don't really follow modern gaming anymore since I can't afford it.
I'm excited about what Valve's been up to.
Meanwhile Microsoft has been busy burning down their own empire. I wouldn't touch their new box even if I knew anything about it.
oh yeah i guess xbox still exists loll
Nex(t) box more like PiPP!N
