In the first years, when they had to build up brand recognition. Since the middleof the 360-years, the Xbox segment is profitable. So why should they throw it away now when Xbox is an established home console and gaming brand?
Even if they don't have the most popular home console. Their mere existence in console space helps Sony and Nintendo not to get too cocky. I don't understand why some people wish less competition for the market leaders. |
How are they being competitive? They have been nothing but a failure this entire gen. Even at the beginning when they where never ahead, they tried implementing more shitty practices like drm and no used games and mandatory kinect. Consumers responded adequately and now they are selling like garbage in comparison to he ps4.
Aside from their shitty practices, one would think they pump out good software to try and win gamerd back, or change the view on the company but again, no they have had a lousy software output as well. They keep relying on the same 3 tired franchises, a bunch of tiny games, any new games they try that doesn't sell gangbuster they abandon instead of expanding on it, and they have cancelled multiple ips and studios. Third parties don't want to work with them cuz they try to force ideas like multiplayer on scalebound.
The only real advancement they seem to be going for is games as services which are some of the worst games in history. And I'm so glad this year people had enough and microtransactions reached a limit which will put a big damper on games as service.
Please tell me how the xbox has been competitive this gen. and please don't say something useless like its got a 4k bluray player, or its got useless features unrelated to gaming or the stupid its got a better online experience.
It takes genuine talent to see greatness in yourself despite your absence of genuine talent.
