Next victim of their downward spiral: gamepass and with it, the Xbox brand and the IP they own. I wonder who will they sell it to or if they'll sit on it.

Microsoft just messed up the whole naming convention after the 360 I think. You had the Xbox "one" which was a name people often used to refer to the original Xbox. Then you have an Xbox One S. Then Xbox series X which is a genuinely terrible name. Oh, and the Xbox series S which is not the Xbox One S. Sony to their credit got it right from the beginning. Simple 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. No medals for guessing what the name of the next Playstation will be.

Every time I see the names of the Xbox lineup my brain just feels tired and kinda shuts down. I am never going to remember it.

Innovation is for libtard commies, let's just rererelease another halo remaster and jack up the prices further, that'll show em!

they put all thier development into AI, and they are frantically trying to cram it into everything else,.

AI made games.

its all MTX. the only game to go reverse on graphics is pokemon.

i had no idea they gave up after xbox one, thats probably eveyrones response, they probably never heard them marketing a new console.

Microsoft is an empty shell of a company drifting on the momentum of it's achievements from 20 years ago. It's another victim of shareholder sharks. It's taking time to die, but it's getting closer. There's hardly any Microsoft products that are worth a damn these days.

Neglected Pixels? Lol, truth is they were always poorly made midrange phones sold at high end prices. Google has never made good hardware, not even accidentally.

Literally never heard this opinion before. Why are they bad?

Don’t worry, they’ll kill off and abandon the pixel line soon enough. Remember Nexus? Pepperidge Farm remembers.

I’ll play out my remaining games that I purchased for my Series X and then bail for the PlayStation (or maybe steam box) ecosystem. I’ve never owned a PlayStation or steam computer, I went straight from Dreamcast to Xbox and have been buying each generation. They got online gaming right, but now they’re so rudderless it’s astonishing. What a shame, after the 360 they had all the momentum and squandered it.

A couple months ago when the Game Pass price hike was announced, I checked my profile to see what tier I was in: how much I was paying. Turns out my account had expired, was tied to a credit card I haven't had for a while. I really only play single- player games and apparently nothing on Game Pass interested me.

Xbox One X Series X CoPilot X

My pixel 1 phone was fine. Went back to Samsung after that though.

.... But not on a snowy bench or laying on some exterior steps

Nexus line had some real quality mid range phones at great prices.

We’ve seen the buyout/burn down methodology against a lot of smaller companies; it sounds a bit like Microsoft is doing that internally to Xbox division. It’s all I can think of to explain so much of the intentional damage. So, the console war is now basically Nintendo, Sony, and Valve.

Fucking shameful. All these men in tech, and not one can bring the greatest masculine virtue; finding cool dramatic spots to die.
