so how is xbox becoming competitive not good for the market?

Well I'm of the mind that they were already competitive, but to answer your question, there is absolutely nothing wrong with anything about any of this. The time is neither wrong nor right.

My concern is strictly related to anti-competition, aka buying up all the competition, aka over-consolidation of industry. To be clear, the console war never was bad, it was actually good. What is bad is one company winning the console war.

Specifically, all games under one umbrella will have to adhere to those policies. It could lead to homogenization, lack of innovation and lack of motivation to innovate. Diversity is a strength of the gaming industry, and sadly we often don't know what we had until it is gone. I simply want options, and I want everyone else to have them too.

That said, once again, who knows if this move will lead to that homogenization or lack of innovation. We have no choice but to wait and see.



I don't need your console war.
It feeds the rich while it buries the poor.
You're power hungry, spinnin' stories, and bein' graphics whores.
I don't need your console war.

NO NO, NO NO NO.
