I dont see the turn around yet. Nothing has changed yet. Its expected to change in a year or 2. Its still very lackluster. Untill it happens and some games actually come out and they are great, it would be rash to assume they will deliver.

Just with Forza Horizon 4 they more then delivered for me on the X1 closing in on 1,100 hours played its my most played game of the 8th generation.  I'm pretty sure either Forza Horizon 5 or 6 will be my most played game of this generation.

No one is denying Forza are well made but part of the problem last-gen for MS was all the hitters they had were more Halo, Forza and Gears. Halo and Gears have lost a lot of lusters. So none of these were moving the needle to challenge the competition in sales. Now they do on paper with the studios they bought but we have yet to see that group of games that pushes Xbox over the edge to really challenge the other 2 systems.
