This shift is happening precisely because Game Pass subscriptions have plateau'd and Xbox Series console sales are on a downward trajectory. That's going to get even worse if it has less games than Playstation in every way while PlayStation has almost everything. It'll snowball. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:PlayStation_5-only_games Like what, 15 games that you couldn't play on another platform? --- Hello ... Copied to Clipboard!

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:PlayStation_5-only_games I'm gonna assume that the remaining Xbox audience don't want to primarily play on PC. Otherwise they'd already be doing so. But yes it will snowball. They're obviously not going to get Playstation first party games. Those Halo, Gears and Forza die hards may decide to shift to Playstation if those games end up on there. Rumors are also pointing that it will be a digital only console soon. So anyone who values physical games (and note that one of the ways they gained momentum with the Xbox One was their backwards compatibility program) will also leave to Playstation. Xbox is currently spotty with Japanese game and indie game support. If hardware sales continue to dwindle not only will that not improve it'll get worse. Then other developers and publishers may also leave and stick with Playstation. Playstation can continue to bury them with more timed exclusivity deals to really finish the job. If Game Pass subscriptions dwindle due to the above then chances are they have less money to get content too. Which will also lead to less subscribers. So what are we looking at in 5 years time if Xbox are still in this? --- A Fallen Mascot ... Copied to Clipboard!

Can you imagine the shitshow if Xbox backtracked on their Game Pass promise? Good lord.
That's sort of their big issue here. They're at the end of the rope. How much longer can they be given? It has been over 10 years since Xbox has been relevant. The TV/Kinect gamble didn't work. The Play Anywhere/Game Pass gamble hasn't worked. Minecraft works. I'm guessing the Call of Duty revenue works. So logically... --- A Fallen Mascot ... Copied to Clipboard!

In FY23, Microsoft CEO Satya Nadellas performance-based pay targets were no longer tied to Game Pass growth, as opposed to the previous three fiscal years. This comes amid uncertainty and a lack of officially disclosed data about the current state of the subscription service. Sure wonder why that is --- A Fallen Mascot ... Copied to Clipboard!

I can't understand having loyalty to something that could not possibly care less about you. Unless it's bought loyalty, in which case why the fuck does this even matter.I don't get it either. I criticized the GP model in the past several times, but not because I "hate" Microsoft or because I'm rooting for another company. Nevertheless some Microsoft fanboys called me Sony pony. They always try to drag any discussion, any criticism on their favourite toys, into a console wars even though I just criticized one aspect. I'm a multiplatform gamer through and through and don't care about console wars. I play on all consoles and enjoy franchises from all console companies. That doesn't mean though, that I defend any and all actions they make. But yeah... fanboys are a curse, regardless of which company they root for. I mean, it's okay to have a preference. Someone who likes one more than the other, that's fine by me. But this blind brand loyalty... Definitely no. --- Like: great videogames, peaceful discussions, open-minded people Dislike: console wars, trolls, haters, review-bombing, negativity ... Copied to Clipboard!
