@Zippy6 Did that Discord leak mention February as the date too?

Cause if so, that Discord leak looks legit now, Lol.

I still can't wrap my head around how it makes financial sense for the manufacturers though. Basically treating Xbox like Windows, OEMs will build hardware while Xbox licenses the Xbox OS or the Windows OS? So we'll still have hardware but by multiple different OEMs, different types of hardware like handhelds. Still not sure where the money comes in from the OEM unless Xbox gives them a decent split of the store revenue.

But Steam Machines failed

They said late this month:

I think almost everything has come true, except the Xbox hardware bit. Not sure how that will work.

I would have loved to be fly on the
wall at Playstation headquarters right now 😅. They must be over the moon. 

I think I was a little terrified, when Xbox was acquiring Activision. I wasn't sure how the market would fare with that kind of change.

But now I'm terrified of this. 

MS has pushed Sony a lot this gen. Better backwards compatibility, a Gamepass competitor, expanded their studios. I was trying to be optimistic that Activision would be another thing that would spur Sony to do better things.

Hopefully MS stays a competitive force, and hopefully this ends up being a situation that benefits Xbox gamers and PS gamers alike.
