| Slimebeast said: The "always on" fiasco was the beginning of the end. Xbix One losing all its exclusives to PC was another step in this process. Xbox Scorpion is like a quite powerful PC in a box. And since Xbox got rid of all its exclusives to PC, Scorpion is gonna fail in sales against Sony. The key next step towards Microsoft leaving the business is when it becomes clear that all the Xbox Windows PC games (the PC versions of Qunatum Breaks, Scalebound, Gears of War 4, Halo 6, Forza Horizons 3 etc) have failed because PC gamers dislike the Windows store. The MS PC games strategy has zero chance to succeed if they don't put the games on Steam. But that on the other hand would cut all the profits from the PC games and there wouldn't be any platform. So Microsoft is in a roch and a hard place. At that point, when at the same time, now we're in 2018, Xbox is being outsold 3 to 1 by Sony in the console market, Microsoft will realize it's a lost cause and the Xbox brand will be sold for cheap to another company. This could happen already in 2018. After this there is total collaps. Selling a console just doesn't work. The aura of negativity and failure is too strong and gamers will feel it. The other company realizes that there's nothing to do, Xbox Scorpion sales just keep declining, so they will cease supporting the platform, terminate all remaining games in developent and within another 1- 1.5 years, that should be the year 2019, it's all declared dead. |
Yeah, it will happen....in your dreams.

Yet it is still selling on Amazon.
