Hating Game Pass Makes You Look Foolish

The data literally says otherwise... Which even though the thread has mostly shut down these arguments on its own, is the whole "GP is bad for devs/publishers" and "GP kills game sales" and "GP isn't profitable" etc. etc. despite the data showing games on Game Pass still sell just fine on their own while increasing the sub counts for GP.  The data simply says, "money" which is the only thing these companies are after.

I literally never said anything about any of those things.

I said it's not turning the tide of the console war, which is true; PS5 is still easily outselling Xbox Series in spite of many claiming that Game Pass would be a killer app that would turn the sales war in Xbox's favour.

Many claim? Fanboy claims are not real. In the Series X|S expectation thread, the vast majority of the votes didn't predict Xbox reaching 90+ million, which I'm sure the Ps5 will hit 100+ easily. There really isn't anyone with realistic expectations that said Game Pass was going to boost Xbox sales above Ps5. There is an argument for it being a system seller because sales are higher overall and I'm sure some of it is attributed to Game Pass. The only thing that could cause a shift will depend on the output of Xbox Game Studios.
