*In-thread warning*

 

Will Xbox To beat NX and PS5 combined? Will they ever stop being Play Station's evil twin? Will they give up before it happens?

I mean, the original Xbox was second place, 360 is arguably at third and Xbone doesn't seem to top PS4. What do you guys think it would take them to win by a landslide?

No, I don't think it will ever happen. They had their chance in the 7th gen, and Sony still barely passed them. Unless both Sony and Ninten goof badly again, I don't think it will happen.

There won't be anything to beat, because there won't be strict hardware anymore. Just XBL serving as their digital/streaming next gen platform, creating a symbiotic non-compete with all other platforms. Everybody wins.

Consistent.

Debatable, really.



Why not? This generation was theirs to lose. If the X1 reveal hadn't been such a PR disaster, and they had released it at $400, who knows...they might have been in the top position right now.

Meaning, MS can learn from their mistakes, just like Sony and Ninty.

Probably not but who knows. I certainly hope not though. Also something like spemanig said above.



I don't see why not. Anything can happen and Microsoft has the muscle to make things happen

yes it is.

Then lets avoid the pointless argument and just go with, "joint second place with PS3"



No. too late... at least globally. Maybe next gen in the US will be different.



Nope, neither Microsoft nor Nintendo will win another generation.
