This thread just shows that there are people who simply doesn't like Xbox and it is showing it. Then there are comments like this:

^^ Now this is a comment I would like to see more unfortunately that isn't entirely possible.

Your comment immediately gets thrown out the window when you mention Phantom Dust flopping, that game is FREE TO PLAY and player count has reach over a million some time ago lol.

I think it gives more validity to the "Microsoft is in desperate need of" point of mine, that the only Xbox One semi-hit of the year is a Free to Play game tho

Actually no it doesn't, it's more people trying to desperately downplay Microsoft.

Take it however you want, but Xbox is in DESPERATE need of a game hit.

This year has been rock bottom for Xbox when it comes to sales, Hardware and Software sales.

The Xbox One is Down YoY, it is being outselled by the 3DS in the US, every single exclusive that has released this year has flopped.

Halo Wars 2 performed horrible. Voodoo Vince and Phantom Dust too.

Forza 7, released today, is currently at No. 48 in the Amazon Top 100. Again, released TODAY.

Cuphead is at 31.

Now you tell me. Is Microsoft desperate for a hit or not? 

Forza 7 sales represent unprecedent antecipation for X1X release.

And your alignment shows as well... and when did free to play reaching 1M on 30M userbase meant success?

Last I heard Shu Yoshida was sad that the indie games on PS4 PSN+ had less than 50% download ratio.

1 million for a cult classic game from the Xbox era isn't a sucess? Whatever you say.

One thing you have to give Sony credit for, when they pay for exclusives, they make sure it never sees the light of day on another console.  MS only seems to be interested in timed exclusives.

That's because Sony has more money than Microsoft so they can lock up the games permanently.

Last I check Microsoft is one of the wealthiest companies worldwide.
