Phil has said so many conflicting things its hard to keep track of them all. From E3 this year: https://ca.ign.com/articles/2019/06/19/phil-spencer-xbox-focus-is-on-software-and-services-not-console-sales "Spencer further defended Microsoft's strategy. 'There’s always the core that kind of comes back [with]: 'You’re reducing the need to buy an Xbox.' I actually find that in reality people play on a console because they enjoy playing on a television on the couch with a controller in their hands, and it’s an experiential thing more than it is trying to sell an individual device. To shorten it: We focus on the player; we don’t focus on the device." The average consumer will definitely see this headline as most major gaming sites will cover it. |
That’s cool but doesn’t change or relate to anything I said. And obviously E3 news will be more covered than other news cycles, but the average consumer still won’t see it. The average video game consumer doesn’t pay attention to E3. Its for hardcore gamers. Reading video game news is for hardcore gamers. Which just makes it funnier when hardcore gamers act like they have no idea what Microsoft is saying.
