Last week I was at a con, and I saw the store struggle to sell 30 XBox One S with 1TB HDD, Forza Horizon 3 and extra game at 149,98 euros to a crowd of gamers that had come to buy lots of discounted games and hardware.

The offer started soon after I walked in.
On the speakers: "You already have a PS4, give the XBox a try, it's good!"

After looking at all the offers, chatting around, getting a couple games, I got in the queue.
On the speakers: "You can gift it to a friend!"

After the queue, I got to the register and paid for my games. I asked the cashier:
"You still have those XBoxes?"
"Yes... you want one?"
"No thanks, I already have one"

I headed for the exit.
On the speakers: "At this price you can still sell it and make some money!"


I largely thought that XBox's was only uncommon among my group of friends, but it really seems to be a larger problem.
I know this is only Italy, but I don't think this is true only of where I live: Microsoft has a popularity issue.

It's not about whether this will be XBox's last gen, it's about how many would care if it were, and Microsoft needs to address this.

Do you really wonder why when they keep lying to and deceiving their customers over and over?! 180s here, consumer unfriendly behaviour there and above all no dedicated game support.
