Xbox is probably being killed off next week
My guess is investors wanted to see returns on all the massive buy outs
And that will never happen with exclusive games, because Exclusives don't make money in 2023.

A console market being only Playstation & Nintendo is going to be actually dreadful imo

And of course all of this is happening when GPU prices are soaring and windows 10 is being sunsetted.
PC gaming is as inaccessible as it's been in decades
@kirby We don't know for sure but the writing is on the wall and Phil has already spoken out
We've been told there will be a business meeting in one weeks time where all their exclusives will be going to the other consoles

Basically it's a Sega turn, Series X is the dreamcast

@oshy
I wonder how they handle shutting down the servers — won't happen right now, but sooner or later will. Will I be able to at least download updates for the games I have on physical media to back them up locally? 🤔
@kirby

@m0xee @kirby I'm imagining sever shutdown will be decades away.
Xbox 360 stuff is still up right now and that came out 20 years ago
@oshy @kirby @m0xee I for one am ready to bully any developer who doesn't target old hardware for new games because we're entering the home computer age again and I've been saying this for a few months now.

So true — I don't even know what they use all the power of modern system for? My current phone is more powerful than some computers I use quite comfortably😅
And it's a fucking midrange phone, that is insane!
