If you are an Xbox fan, I understand you aren't happy if Xbox walks, but i am just saying the obvious.

I don't care if Xbox walks. I own Sony and Nintendo consoles as well, but primarily I am a PC gamer.
I do care about bringing my physical library forwards.
If Microsoft cans support for physical games or cans making a successor console, then my wallet will vote in kind.

The market is not big enough to sustain all 3 companies |
The console market has sustained 3 companies just fine since Microsoft entered the market decades ago.
Nintendo, Microsoft and Sony were all profitable during the 8th gen... 7th gen all 3 console manufacturers had healthy console sales with a relatively competitive split in marketshare.
The Console Market is trending towards 25~ billion in sales and PC market is trending towards 30~ billion.

Which means it is big enough to sustain all 3.
You keep propagating this lie, but we all know it is false.
The reason why the Xbox Series is imploding is because:
1) No GREAT exclusives.
2) Higher pricing.
3) Shit naming. - Xbox Series? Common. WiiU was a better name.
4) Removal of physical games from game stores which also impacts brand awareness. |
I honestly feel Microsoft needed to play it perfect to actually compete with sony and they had the chance with the ps3 being a mess of a system and actually did great but after that they actually made bigger ps3 like mistake with xbox one being much weaker and being more expensive for kinect, then also trying to lock games to online only it was wrap that gen along with sony making much better exclusives and Microsoft making all games on PC day one they literally killed the brand.
