I am seeing a lot more negativity around xbox cause of the profit thing, but did we not already had this discussion before like a year ago?

Also, people think its Microsoft is the only ones. I would very much like to remind the lot about who is the people making the chips and the stuff that goes into these pc and consoles, they are just as much if not more so to blame about the current issue. Nvdia is one that comes to mind alot.

Also, if these gaming publishers and companies to not realised that if price keeps coming up, they will lose more money in the long term than what they get short term is all am gonna say and this is a scenario that already happened before and we know how that turned out in the end.

Now do i think a gaming crash is gonna happen, by now am really starting to believe it. However before that its gonna be something more dire and its either some kind of economic or financial crash of some kind cause the way things are currently no one is going to win at this point.

Sorry for the ramble just tired about the overall state of things in the world at large.

Yeah, Sony is also focusing on increasing margins.

But imo, gaming isn’t going crash, AI is and that will likely also hurt gaming and all other sectors in tech.

That’s the thing Kal, it starts with one thing then it get bigger. Am kinda thankful that microsoft is diversified enough to not have everything on ai like open ai or nvidia are currently.

Yeah, my hope is that Azure can keep Microsoft from getting hit too hard. Because as diverse as they are, they have been pushing AI into all their products in someway.

Damn, it gives you an impression that their portfolio isn’t worth that much hype. I know they still make solid titles, but it’s like people don’t see it like us. Nintendo could get away with it as their portfolio has been recycled since ever. That’s not a jab by the way.

Just the first 4 comments.

Xbox invites mockery… It’s right there front and center and they don’t see the problem with that behavior. That site is rotten to the core…

You can’t discuss anything Xbox because you’ll be laughed at.

How do you download The Outer Worlds 2 base game? Pre-ordered the premium edition upgrade and I can’t find where to download the base game. Where the hell is it located?

Is it not on your owned games section for game and apps? If not I guess you can always just click on one of the the listing when doing a search to find it.

I have Game Pass Ultimate and when you do the upgrade, you get early access to the game. You just don’t own it. I did this for Indy, Avowed and Midnight.

Did Microsoft change this? WTF

I was checking Windows Central article for launch and Early access, the article mentions the premiun edition for 99 usd as getting early access. But not the upgrade version of it, so for this game that could be the case.

Try to find the early access dlc listing and seeing if it has a link to the outer worlds 2 base game.

Confirmed: Sony exiting the concert business with music business being next…

Oh this Halo CE Remake is looking pretty cool, I wish it was coming sooner though, happy co op is confirmed and that they’re not just remaking the visuals but adding extra stuff as well

It’s basically Dead Space Remake, which is awesome.

Would you be surprised if I told you that I have seen a ton of negativity from the Halo community already? mainly due to the lack of multiplayer, and look I get it, I would be hyped beyond belief if we got Halo CE Multiplayer Remake on UE5 but this looks great and it isn’t a simple remake, they have updated the entire game, still, I understand why a multiplayer with these upgrades would have been hyped.

Great more live service games. “Yay”

Anyway, happy for those that get to play it, just do not use social media for a solid month after this reveal… No scratch that, two months.

Also, i am kinda thankful that xbox is stating what is and what is not exclusive within the ecosystem. Thats a good thing if i have ever seen it, cause now no one has to second guess this kind of thing on a repeted dead horse kind of basis.
