Xbox |OT|

[Machiavellian]

People keep talking about PC but if DF is any indication, most PC ports suck balls unless you kit your system balls out with top gear. Its the main reason why I do not waste my time gaming on PC that much because I really do not have the patience or time playing around with drivers and wonky ports. I rather just spend the 400 to 500 bones on a console and just pretty much go from there.

I personally have no exit plan for Xbox. I do not care about physical because I have a garage full of physical games I find myself never going back to and playing. I do not have enough time in the day to play old games let alone playing the new stuff. I do not care about collecting games anymore because I never do anything with them but store them away for no purpose. Since most of these games need patches and what not, by the time you circle back to play them you would be lucky if the patch servers are still running.

I say this still with the fact that I purchase the majority of all my games physical but that's because by the time I usually purchase a game its months to years later so they are always on sale. All MS really have to do is just have a bunch of sales like Steam with games really cheap or the same price and people will move to digital because at the end of the day I would believe most gamers really do not care about if its physical or digital, they only care about price.

Personally, I am interested in the balance act MS is going to try to pull if they are putting their games on Nintendo and Sony. Is it still case by case. Mostly just service games and smaller titles. Just ABK and Bethesda titles and their own in house stays exclusive. Who really knows. If they want to still sell consoles at some decent rate, they will need to balance this out like only putting their first party games on Sony system after 2 years, pretty much same strategy Sony does with PC.

If MS decide to go full third party and make a PC gaming PC and handheld now that would be interesting and pretty bold if you ask me.
