| HoloDust said: I think a lot of folks here underestimate allure of $25/month for console and 200+ games for many parents out there. Unless Sony has something similar to offer, MS could potentiailly grab big chunk of that market. |
Nope. What a lot of folks here understand is that that is not something new. It's not like this is something MS is doing for the first time right now. They have been doing this since 2017. It has not made any meaningful difference whatsoever. To somehow assume that it would suddenly account for them gaining a "big chunk" of the market is honestly preposterous.
There is absolutely nothing to feed that narrative at all, especially when as has been said already, they have been doing this since 2017. If there were two or three flagship titles that would be added to GP on o around the launch of the new Xbox, say like a halo and new Forza, then that would be a totally different thing entirely.
Most importantly though, and this is what I think folks are really ignoring coming to launch, who has the mindshare? Who has the momentum? Whoever that is,is the one everyone s going to be talking about. That's the one kids are going to be asking or and people are going to be primarily buying. A cursory look at social media will tell you who that is. eg... MS officially announces series S, pricing for series s and x and release date and when preorders start... and what happens? PS5 starts to trend on twitter. Thats what you call mind share right there.
