Weaker specs compared to what's in the Series X and ps5 because only 1% of the pc gamers currently have that kind of hardware. I'm putting so much emphasis on GP and Xcloud because it's become MS's main focus and the dna of their next gen strategy. It's why they are practically giving away their AAA exclusives for free by launching them on GP from day one.

PSNow is different in that it was meant for people who migrated to ps4 but still wanted to play Sony's library of last gen games. They also have some ps4 titles exclusives on there but it's not like they will be launching all of their big games on it from day one. And they're definitely not going to make their ps5 exclusives cross gen for 2 years just so ps4 players can play them too, practically for free. That's the last thing they want as they're focus will be on getting people to actually buy a next gen console.

I don’t mean to clog the posts here (trying hard to space them out and let others post) but just had to throw this in here.

- Ever thought that MS knows they can’t compete traditionally with Sony so they are thinking outside the box? The only reason we get day 1 first party games is to give a massive perception of quality over PS Now. It’s meant to create a vast difference between brands that sets Xbox apart. This is part of the “bold” strategy MS is doing. 

Not like they are neglecting consoles as Series X is taking the spotlight lately as I’m sure you are aware 

That sounds great, except I don't think many people would buy a ps5 just because it has PsNow. What sets console brands apart is the quality of their exclusive games, not services like GP, Psnow or whatever.
