Because everyone is going insane. GameStop took the Game Pass ad down as well.
Gamers don’t deserve nice things.
For days we have clung to every little detail we find on Twitter to better understand Xbox’s plans. And every little detail creates enormous indignation for now. So it’s likely it was removed to avoid more of these rumors.
I’ve been there for well over a decade. What took you so long?
Like I said you were economical with the truth. It wasn’t the case of just installing your old PC games onto your new PC and they’ll work.
The “gaming community” might be one of the shittiest subsets of human beings on the planet.
I have never really been a XBOX fan, that is why I actually chose to pick an XBOX. If I wanted to become a cultist I would have chosen a different console.
It sucks for those that are too emotionally invested on XBOX. But being emotionally invested on a brand or product honestly, it is nothing healthy. It does not matter if it is XBOX or BMW or whatever.
Enjoy your console and be happy with it. And be happy that some of your friends are going to enjoy games you like now. Who knows what is going to happen in the future. Decide your next console (or moving to PC) when it is time for it.
This reminds me a bit of when people said that PC was dead in the 2000’s
Its one thing to care and want your prefer console to still exist, but there is no need to act out on Twitter like a freaking 12 year old idiot. This video shows this. I watch his content cause he make fun of fanboy idiots. I find it to be funny. Usually mostly he make fun of PlayStation fanboys cause they are the dumbest, but when its Xbox fanboy being the idiot. They too need to be make fun off. especially that Kidsmoove dude lol.
Phil Spencer exists*
Gamers: OMG XBOX IS DYING, THIRD PARTIES ARE LEAVING THEM, MS IS GOING TO SEEL THEM.
Thats the ridiculous level both fanbases are reaching in all of this. What’s next? Overanalyzing and overreacting if someone at xbox wears a blue shirt and red pants?

People mocking us thinking we are this sad. Im getting more irate at others taking joy in our misery than if the news is true. Why is the talk taking another week?
“Our misery” XD
Getting off Twitter would be a good idea
But this is going to happen while XBox stays silent. The damage to the Xbox brand is getting painful now and yet nothing from Xbox not even a date for when they will announce their plans. Which tells you they don’t know what to do and making it up as they go along
Xbox PR is not fit for purpose. Very hurt and disappointed in Phil Spencer I thought he was better than this…
A friend sent me that to “cheer me up”. I called him a pr*ck afterwards.
You do have a good idea. I’ll need to limit my time.
Understatement of the millennium.
I do agree that comunication is atrotious, the rest is again:
Has anyone been keeping up with that sneaker guy on another forum? they started making these multiplatform claims back in December.
Also, someone posted a timeline on other era and when you look at all the wording used by MS reps it feels pretty clear this was planned all along.
Nov 28, 2023: Tim Stuart (Xbox CFO): "what you’ll hear from us more and more is a bit of a change of strategy. And again, not announcing anything broadly here, but our mission is to bring our first-party experiences, our subscription services to every screen that can take a – they can play a game. That means smart TVs, that means mobile devices. That means what we would have thought as competitors in the past like PlayStation and Nintendo."
Dec 01, 2023: Phil Spencer: “We have no plans to bring Xbox Game Pass to PlayStation or Nintendo.”
Jan 18, 2024: Satya Nadella (MS CEO): “We love gaming. In fact, Flight Simulator was created before even Windows. But, we were number three, number four. And now with Activision, I think we have a chance of being a good publisher — quite frankly — on Sony and Nintendo and PCs and Xbox.”
I am missing the point here. What is the big deal about that tweet?
Nothing. We’re too on the edge of the roof. I can reach for my pocket to take out my wallet and someone will gasp heavily thinking I’m pulling out a weapon.
Yes. He is a total fraud as I pointed out in these 2 posts
He has spread FUD for years.
He has been claiming Xbox would go multiplatform since they won the ABK case.
