I'm making a point that Xbox has built a reputation on supporting all gamers regardless of how they want to play or where, making sure that every Xbox user feels equally treated and valued. Yet now all they do is beat down on the their users who aren't willing to spend more than necessary while they're going out of their way to curry favour with other platforms.

By complaining that PS5 will get Indiana Jones in Spring 2025 at $70 because 20-30% (at a maximum) of Game Pass users in December won't get Indiana Jones but will still be able to get it for $70 or $20 with a single month of Game Pass Ultimate. See my point about why the comparison was an odd complaint? Lol. Xbox owners will get Indiana Jones months earlier than PS owners and PS owners will still pay full price, while Xbox owners either pay full price, $20 or those on existing GP Standard subs will get Indiana Jones anyway at $15 for the month.

It's not about simply paying an extra $5 to play Indiana Jones now. It's what it means going forward. If they're already nickel and diming you now with their current position, what do you think they'll start doing the moment they actually start to feel successful again? You think they'll just suddenly become a good consumer-friendly corporation?

Of the platform holders they easily have the least justification for pushing these tactics on consumers, yet they continue to push ahead and remain tone deaf to their audience.
