you can use it to warm your hands up before turning on your PlayStation 5
By Laboured Go To PostBuying a videogame console is a political act, you see.
Yes, but no matter which one you buy, it’s a vote for a right wing party
By heavyssandvich Go To PostDEALDon't have a PS5 yet.

By FortuneFaded Go To PostNever bothered to look at the people in the room in this scene. I see the old man from the retirement home and Lisa's music teacher. I recognise the guy with the glasses but I can't pin him down.
Anyway, tried out Persona 3. Don’t think it’s for me. Liked the soundtrack though. Just felt like a very mundane and boring 40 minute introduction. Gave up on it before reaching a combat encounter.
Not saying it’s bad, it’s just not for me. Pls understand, Yurt.

By Kibner Go To PostA shame the best modern console case design is going down like this. Both versions, really.The Switch and OLED model?
All digital future? Not so fast. The rain and wind is so heavy here in Sacramento that the Internet (fiber) has gone out.

Think you can tell a bit about a person by their console choice tho. Like star signs.

I'm in it for the story lets see..

What was the point of pushing through the Activision deal if they were so close to exiting the console business? Surely Gamepass will be scaled back in time now they won't be using it to sell Xboxes.
By NiceGuy Go To PostWhat was the point of pushing through the Activision deal if they were so close to exiting the console business? Surely Gamepass will be scaled back in time now they won't be using it to sell Xboxes.To make Gamepass more appealing which was where the focus on antitrust was. Looks like the antitrust lawyers had it right and the judges wrong.
it's not about making money, it's about giving to us gamers. it's like phil gates giving money for the development of the covid vaccine.
Gamers: exclusives are stupid everyone should be able to play every game
Microsoft goes multiplatform

By domino Go To Postlord the salt on era and xbox twitter is incredibleI mean these guys built their whole persona over a brand and went from thinking that brand was going to put its main competitor out of business to this in like a 3 month span.
cults i tell ya
By NiceGuy Go To PostWhat was the point of pushing through the Activision deal if they were so close to exiting the console business? Surely Gamepass will be scaled back in time now they won't be using it to sell Xboxes.Look at the amount of money ABK, Bethesda, etc. make. Microsoft can rake it in like never before if they drop the console and just put out games everywhere. It's probably the best way forward for them due to not having a failing console as an albatross around their neck.
Personally think Game Pass is going to die out or be massively scaled back. Big Phil and co. look at Sony selling $70 USD games by the boatload with envy. Never mind the sales wizardry of Nintendo lol. Game Pass is a failure for MS.

By Lego Go To PostNot paid more than $3 a month for Game Pass ever 😂They raised it from $3 a month to $4 on cd keys but yeah I don’t get how Microsoft is making money from me paying $4 for a month of gamepass on a random site vs $70 on Starfield in a store
I would have bought it for $70 if I didn’t have the gamepass option
Even if you pay $15 for a month of gamepass they are still missing out on $70
Microsoft goofed big time, at least wait a few months, not day 1 lmao
Hope good games are coming anyway and that this isn’t their way of saying they have nothing worth a dime.

It's probably the best way forward for them due to not having a failing console as an albatross around their neck.What's a basic timescale for the money made from the Activision and Bethesda acquisitions to outweigh the money Microsoft spent buying them?
Would love for the calculations and forecasts to leak, presumably the numbers were crunched for all kinds of eventualities.
To go from thinking that Activision and Bethesda's games were going to potentially be first party exclusives, to where it appears they're heading, all within the last three years is really some wild, wild stuff.
Honestly tho this was always the way it was gonna go. It doesn’t make sense to spend 77 billion to acquire two multiplatform publishers (Activison and Bethesda) and then ignore the other platforms.
Especially when your competitor outsells you 2:1. You should have just literally burned the money if that’s what you were gonna do
You got GP on Samsung TVs and shit. They obviously felt for a long time that traditional consoles weren’t worth it.

Honestly, MLB The Show 2023 was the primary reason I played my Xbox last year. Funny how it was MLB that forced Sony to make it for another console and it was "free" as part of Gamepass.

I expect Gamepass “lite” on Steam soon, similar to EA Access.
By Rob Go To PostGamers: exclusives are stupid everyone should be able to play every gameMore about what it signals really, doesn't make the console you bought useless but it means going forward your library is going to be stuck on that old system because I doubt Microsoft are going to bother to make a next gen system now.
