They dedinetly could. But thouse arw contradictory approaches. If they focus on cloud and gamepass and multi platform their focus on games will dictate that they program for the lowest coming denominator. That will mean games will be smaller level. It wont nececitate hardware and pretty much discourages it. A series s will be pointless as everyone would have acces to lower level machines being supported. Can they release more big games nececitating hardware? Sure they can. Im pretty sure their halos and gears will need something at least series s level. This is why I'm still waiting on more first party games. But they cannot do both as if a lot of big games show up that lower spec users run like garbage then subs will decline. If they make a lot of games that could be runes anywhere to improve subs high spec console users will feel they dont need the hardware. Can they make what they promises and yearlie pump 4 AAA and a bunch of A-AA? I highly would not think so. Still possible though. |
You know after the 1-2 year period the games will stop targeting lower hardware. So logically MS will make people upgrade gens eventually, unless you stick to Xcloud exclusively. Game Pass also isn’t universally adopted at the moment, your argument only applies if that’s the case.
So really you just skeptical they gonna release multiple AAA games per year alongside smaller titles? That’s fine. I’d tell you all the rumoured AAA games but it’s better to see it from MS. 4 AAA per year is probably not sustainable but 2 is doable, that literally breaks even on the sub cost. The rest is just value.
Xbox: Best hardware, Game Pass best value, best BC, more 1st party genres and multiplayer titles.
