Just because you say it, doesn't make it true

Back to reality? Because Shika made a post about Xbox console sales we're back to "DOOMED!"

It'd be nice if Shika could make educated posts on a subject matter without someone else diving in with a hyperbolic take formulated based on absolutely nothing, Lol. I and many other Xbox fans are still very excited due to the Xbox showcase, I and many other Xbox fans accepted years ago that Xbox won't beat PlayStation 5 this generation, who on Earth thought a great showcase would change the narrative in Xbox sales versus PlayStation?

Destroyed in Gaming News? What? Lmao. Again, all I see is excitement from the Xbox community lately about the future line-up. Starfield is literally right around the corner and the excitement for that is massive. You do understand that not everything can be perfect right? We can criticise one aspect of something without jumping to "IT'S ALL TERRIBLE, WE'RE DOOMED" Lol.

Don't give a shit if Xbox outsells PlayStation or not, I don't even give a shit if they come close to PlayStation. You're too invested in beating the competition. You have a mindset of "If Xbox can't win, then they're a loser" or that for someone to win, someone has to lose, that isn't the case at all, otherwise we can say that Switch is the only winner in the console market and PlayStation is a loser as well, Lol. I only care that Xbox grows as a business and provides me with games to play, if Xbox is profitable then them beating PlayStation is irrelevant.

It took 29 days for you to go back to your hyperbolic negative takes...It was nice while it lasted.

I don't speak the truth but sales numbers don't lie. Also gaming news is positive? What was positive since the xbox showcase? The baldurs gate situation?Sales numbers? We are on Vgchartz a sales site so yeah sales numbers are partially important.

It is not about beating the competition but MS making xbox relevant. 

Nobody asked for the Xbox series S 1 TB, go to youtube and you will find plenty of live Xbox TGS 2022 reactions that are rather negative and most will summarize it as ' Xbox announces games that were available for years on Playstation'.      In face some of us in this thread played thos games on PS and then played it on xbox like the Ni No Kuni games.  I mean can you even point out why TGS for Xbox in 2022 was great? 

I am also so tired of 'but konni they showed Atlus games at xbox showcase'  I am sorry but if you are a Persona/Smt/Atlus games fan you don't have xbox as a primary console, espeically when games like SMT Nocturne are available on PS5 and switch but not on Xbox. 

Right, sure, Switch beats PlayStation so nobody must be happy with PlayStation, sales numbers don't lie, PlayStation is doomed. Also is it sales numbers or is it a stock issue? Make your mind up, if it's a stock issue then you can't use sales numbers to justify your argument that everyone is down on Xbox again, Lol.

The Xbox showcase was literally only a month ago, JFC. Xbox fans are riding off that momentum because it was a brilliant showcase. Looking forward to the future, counting down the days to Starfield, Lol. We're in the middle of Summer though, major gaming news or videogame releases rarely happen in July.

Here's what else we have to look forward to in the near future.

  • July 11th - ID@Xbox Showcase.
  • July 14th - ExoPrimal Day One Game Pass.
  • August 23rd - GamesCom (Which Xbox is labelling as a "special year" for them, also, Sony has confirmed they aren't attending).
  • September 6th - Starfield
  • September 21st - Tokyo Game Show (Which Xbox is listed as an exhibitor, meanwhile Sony is only listed in the Indie section).

Numerous other anticipated indie titles coming to Game Pass in the near future, such as Party Animals, Payday 3, Cities Skylines II, Lies of P, etc.)

We had 11 Bit Studios announce a Game Pass partnership with Xbox as well.

But tell me more how Xbox is being dominated in the Gaming News...Especially when the vast majority of the recent Gaming news has been about the damn FTC vs Microsoft trial, Lmao.

I knew you'd mention Baldur's Gate III again, we've already been through this. It'll score very high, it's also niche on Consoles and releases on PC a whole month before PlayStation because they wanted to avoid Starfield, the game you think is in trouble because of Baldur's Gate III...When some Sony fans can't even get the genre of BG3 right but hey anything for console war ammunition right?

We know that BG3 is 100% coming to Xbox, it has one issue (split-screen) and once that is fixed it will be release on Xbox, for all we know it could be literally a week after the PlayStation release, Xbox ATG is assisting them on it, Xbox fans will get it shortly after PlayStation is my expectation, it's a shame that this developer is being dragged into the console wars though, I'm sure they love that, I'm sure they'll love when people start comparing Starfield to Baldur's Gate 3, two completely different titles, when people try to mock BG3 for not selling as much as Starfield because fanboys have decided to use it in their pathetic console wars.

Sales numbers have remained the same for years, PlayStation will beat Xbox, how many times does this need to be repeated before it goes into peoples heads, Lol.

Actually, a lot of people asked for higher storage on Xbox Series S because the current storage is pitiful.

I suppose if you surround yourself with Twitter console warriors and angry bait YouTubers then you'll be in a constant state of negativity like you are, I took the reaction of TGS 2022 on Twitter at the time and on ResetEra and it was largely positive, some even saying it was better than the Xbox E3. What do you want? Nothing Xbox does is ever good enough for you, Xbox is getting better Japanese support but nah it isn't enough, it was already on PlayStation...THAT'S THE FRIGGING POINT! Xbox is increasing their Japanese support and many gamers are grateful for that, titles that have for years skipped Xbox are finally coming to the platform, that is a POSITIVE development no matter how much you want to moan that they have no Japanese exclusives (hello Hi-Fi Rush).

But then you end it that it doesn't even matter if Xbox gets Japanese titles because the fanbase is on PlayStation/Switch! Guess what, that applies to all Japanese titles, even new brand new IPs, Lol. You ignore that Xbox this year has had more variety in Japanese titles on Game Pass then the past few years (I made my list, I'm sure you saw it). You ignore the multiple multiplatform day one Game Pass titles which didn't launch on Xbox later than PlayStation (such as ExoPrimal, Wo-Long, MH Rise, etc.)

Nothing Xbox does makes you happy, I'm convinced you just love moaning.
