You still act like GP is a feature like Kinect (absurd) that takes away from its 14 studios making games.....when the whole point is that they give access to all of MSs games. It in no way detracts from what gamers want nor what games MS is making. 

You made assumptions first....not nice when someone swings the pendulum back at you. Sony has every reason to not give you their best at launch, nor will they make the most of the hardware. Where as I know I’m getting the best at launch. 
Sony unveiled the font and logo...with no console reveal and no games. MS showed the Series X and Hellblade 2. So ya...I have every reason to think Sony is full of themselves and expect you to get excited over the brand alone. Over a font and logo. Cmon.

You want pros of buying a Series X? Fine, though you don’t have to agree you just acknowledge that there are people that my points apply to. 

They want the custom Halo edition console (me). They want the best versions of 1st party games because they don’t want to settle for less. They want the latest console purely as an early tech adopter. They want the most power (which they will get from 3rd party and 1st party for 90% of the gen). 

There you go. Remember not all gamers are early adopters. But thank you again for reminding everyone just how bad Sony’s launches are and making me by comparison extremely excited to see what a hungry MS can do :)

Game pass is meant to reach as many players as possible and all of MS's exclusives will be on GP from day one. What does that tell you about the hardware they're targeting with their exclusives?

Your whole defense is based on the assumption that Sony will have crappy exclusives at launch, instead of what MS is bringing to the table. If you do care about having the most powerful console, then how come you're fine with them not even trying to push it with all this cross gen and game pass crap? 

MSs games are designed for PC and then are scaled down accordingly. Pc specs that are above PS5 I’m fairly certain. Then Xbox Series x, Lockhart, Xbox X, and Xbox 1. That tells me that no matter what I pick to play the exclusives I will get the best version possible. Thats the advantage of MS being a PC developer now where as Sony has weak presence. 

Game Pass just dictates how I access and pay for my games. It is not the same category as hardware. Cmon, we going in circles.... GP has zero impact on specs. None. 

I know I’m getting the best for Xbox at launch and there is a lot of evidence that Sony doesn’t care about its launch offerings and instead wants you to buy PlayStation...because it’s Playstation. “Here’s our logo and font! No console reveal or games but we expect you to get excited!!!”.....ya I’ll stick with what MS is doing thank you very much.
