As the saying goes, if you're not winning, you're losing. That is the case here with consoles, even if XB profits are growing.

You can only milk the same cow so much. Eventually you need more cows.

This was said over and over tonight in the podcast. XB needs to grow gaming or eventually they're going to 'run out of milk'.

The console pie really hasn't grown much for decades. Continually splitting the pie isn't sustainable, especially if you keep getting a smaller slice.

The problem is it's a shrinking pie too. 

85 million XBox 360

58 million XBox One

Maybe 40 million XBox Series S/X?

That's not moving in the right direction. 

It isn't and I still blame their software.  I beat halo infinite last night, good game but so small and short compared to what it could have been.  MS just isn't impressing on the software side.  

For infinite I thought I was in area 1..... nope, it was the whole game.  I'm glad I only paid $20 via PC.
