"Just pushing out tons of games isn't going to change anything". Is Phil smoking crystal meth? It was good he took some of the heat from the Redfall debacle but claiming that Xbox shouldn't focus on building a huge library and that it's not going to change things is some of the most retarded shit I've heard. Gamepass is fine but when a customer is looking at their libraries and see Sony and Nintendo with multiple titles on the shelf and then Xbox with a handful of games it makes them think the company and console are dead.I mean your MS for fuck sakes, you've spent a ton on acquring developers. Why not moneyhat your way to building a library of legacy collections to pad out the count and buy some time. Why not get NIS to release Disgaea titles, Square to release Front Mission, Konami to bring over Sukoden, hell pay Capcom and get Powerstone in the works. Gaming doesn't have to be triple A or purely indie. There was a day when mid tier devs put out great shit people loved. Fuck go moneyhat companies like Cave and others and get shumps. The point is do something other than waiting every four months for your big release to fail and then say "sorry we'll do better next time".You are running out of next times.

@Jim Jim, it should be obvious to anyone at this point that Microsoft can only succeed if they control a market holding a strangehold/monopoly position on such market. The very moment Microsoft faces any kind of competition they are unable to conquer that market.Microsoft has been losing money with Xbox for more than 20+ years now, the only reason Xbox has been able to stay in business is because the Microsoft's software divisions have infinite money to pour in other parts of the corporation. This is Microsoft only strategy : dumping enormous amounts of money at a loss on a division of theirs operating on a given industry until the competition folds either by market forces or commercial mistakes so they achieve monopoly status by sheer volume of investment alone.If the competition doesn't fold (Best examples: Android, Iphone/ipod) Microsoft eventually loses interest because they're not interested in competing and earning money, they're a voracious monster that wants all the money.I wish them the worst, Microsoft popularised the concept of live services with excessive monetisation and micro-transactions plus charging a fee to to play on-line and cloud saves. Good riddance if they go the fuck away.Sadly they've sunk too much money already to stop now, so they will keep at it for another decade at least, it is that Phil won't be in charge for much longer.

@Jim I mean he is right that they can't focus on quantity over quality because if you look at gamespass there is a ton of filler. It's starting to look like Netflix, 2 or 3 games worth playing and then just a mountain of absolute shit.There are a few good indies on game pass but they are several years old now and I own them all on Steam already.

@Jim Xbox doesn't want to venture outside of FPS and Madden, Sony's too busy censoring games to actually be competitive, and Nintendo is trying to shut off access to its older games.Modern gaming at its finest

@Jim the trillion dollar tech giants were hiring people to do nothing so smaller companies couldn't compete until the layoffs. marvel seemed to pay directors that would otherwise have been producing competitive films to make capeshit.what makes you think acquiring game companies is any different?

@Jim They're making a pretty good case for "You know you can just pay the $10 a month and just play on a PC"You hit it on the nose with middle tier games. Honestly, things like that are pretty prevalent in the all-time greats when you go back to older stuff. As many developers as they've acquired, they can gamble on some more niche offerings. Hell, I've been as stoked to fire up a Dreamcast emulator and replay "Evolution" as I have anything else lately

@Jim If you ask me, the Switch is still the best console around, with the Steamdeck coming in a close second. Handheld gaming means you don't have the highest end graphics, but the fun factor blows away the consoles where you have to sit in front of a TV or even a computer. I could never go back to being stuck in one place to game. I don't know why Microsoft hasn't done a handheld, or just taken the Steamdeck and customized it or something. Valve said they wanted other companies to do that, so what's the hold up on Microsoft's end?

@DirtyDan @Jim You can still get the Nintendo games with their online thing.The basic version for $20 per year gives pretty good value in that sense, with the higher tier giving you the N64 games. Or just get a Steamdeck have at it with emulators.

@Jim What I love about the "console war" are the stereotypes of the fanboys: Nintendo's got the perpetual manchild/ soy-cuck, Sony's got the chimpout nig-nog (look at pictures of raided Walmarts in the electronics sections to see what they bagged during the Floyd days), but I feel like an underrepresented stereotype in the memes is the Xbox frat-bro that only plays Madden & shooters.

@Jim are the suikoden games actually based off the source material or is it about as close as DragonBall Z with Journey to the West? I would fucking love a game playing as Sun Erh-niang feeding dumplings made of politicians to people or some shit
