All it takes is a simple change of the company doing the scumbaggery to highlight how silly your comment was. MS is just as bad as EA, or Activision/Blizzard, or WB games. The only difference is they have a marketing department that can play games journalists and gamers like a fiddle.

If Sony had jack-all to launch with we'd never hear the end of it. Yet this entire thread is nothing but PR spin, and Xbox apologetics. The fact of the matter is you need good launch content to get people showing the launch games to others, to generate discussion and hype, to keep sales strong throughout the year. MS' is going to lose sales momentum around April. Whenever a new console launches there's always a crowd that will run out and buy it games or not. Because of this Christmas console sales are pretty much guaranteed to sell out. But after that you need something to move the system. Phil knows this, but instead  of just admitting the obvious he tries to spin it anyway he can. Once that core early adopter audience is tapped out Xbox is going to be in a bind until they can get some new games. Nintendo has so many amazing games at this point that they can afford to have an abysmal year of new releases like 2020, and still keep chugging on. That's what happens when 2019 is absolutely stacked for Switch games releases. We got nearly two years worth of games in one in 2019 from Nintendo. Sony on the other hand is on what seems to be a never ending hot streak with quality exclusive content. Instead of traditionally launching a new PS console with barebones exclusive content, they have three amazing games coming out within the first six months. Eventually this reality is going to catch up with MS.
