Forums - Microsoft - Phil Spencer: this is Xbox's best generation so far

 

^^^^^

That's a strange reply.

I agree with Spencer. Sales for MS are good, there's a lot of people on Live and I (personally) don't see all the fuss about the cancelled games. Just because the PS is doing great, doesn't mean that Xbox is doing bad in their own scope.

Your boss thinks the Xbox brand is in its prime despite the severe lack of games, which means the situation isn't gonna get any better, and that's sad because there's not a single exclusive game on the X1 that I want. If Phil thinks this is a great time to be an Xbox gamer, ya all doomed with more Forza and Halos spin offs.

PS4, on the other hand, is literally twisting my arm to make me buy it, it has AAA exclusives and a great bunch of critically acclaimed Japanese niches. The Switch is a definite buy for me as well.

Took the words right out of my mouth

Sales wise, very improbable XOne matches 360. From a games standpoint, the 360 lineup had more enticing exclusives, even multiplats were built on 360 hardware and ported to PS3.

It's better than the 360 in sales not library.

As I always say:

perfect combo: 3DS or Switch / PS4 / PC, all bases covered, for the one or two games that don't come to pc you really aren't missing out

Phil needs to stop feeding the trolls on social media and just focus on delivering more content for XBO.

We already know XBO is selling better than X360, that Live has record engagement and they are selling games message just fine. They lost the lock on the CoD Bro gamer with the shift of content exclusivity and Destiny early, so they won't get that back at this point.

There is no comparison to the Magic of last gen though.... Oblivion, Gears, Bioshock, Halo 3, Assassins Creed, Modern Warfare, Mass Effect, GTA4, RE5...was just a really special window in console gaming that has yet to be repeated.
