AEGRO said: 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!
