Well, my opinion.

Halo and Gears are the last bastions for the Xbox brand.

If i have to guess, i would say that it is a no brainer that they will come too to the PC. What i don't understand is why Microsoft has been so patient with the clear strategy of unifying both platforms, one game at a time. Slooowly.

Looking at this months sales, it is more than clear that the Xbox One sales are pretty much stale and going down, even tho there is a price cut involved, a new bundle, tons of promotions and arguably one of (if not) the biggest exclusive of the year, which weirdly enough it is also semi-underperforming as of today.

Are the people reacting negatively to this strategy from Ms?

Do people want a console and not a steam machine like W10 device?

I mean, there is no logical reason behind the severe drop in sales of this month, i would guess that there have been going meetings behinds the door, discussing the current state of the brand, because it is not positive at all.

Is Phil Spencer to blame?

Aren't consoles sales supposed to be at their lowest in March?
Is enough of the main stream even following this to make such an impact on sales?

I can imagine that stories of Quantum break on XBox One in 720p vs 4K on Win 10, followed by Forza in 4K on Win 10 with a free version doesn't exactly promote XBox One consoles. (I know it's re projected to 1080p, yet 720p stigma persists)
Maybe MS should promote PC games coming to XBox One a bit more. The way things are presented now feels rather one directional.

I dont know man...i mean, i have been following the Amazon charts for a while now, and this month i have been noticing that the Xbox One price drop didnt affect the console at all, i would say that after the price cut the sales have slowed a little bit.

It is fucking weird, there must be a reasons behind this but as of rigt now i cant find too mcuh sense in this situation.

If you ask me, i would say that these PC ports have to be affecting the sales, they got to be!
