Thanks to you I learned that Gears Tactics, Flight Simulator, Ori, Wasteland 3, Age of empires 3 Definitive edition, etc are not first party games because reality doesn’t matter anymore.
I feel there will be one more generation after current. Possibly 2 more, but 2 will be the absolute limit, before one or both of Microsoft and Sony go full streaming.
im just jk actually, xbox console would probably the non streaming platform.
It's all about perspective really. I think the two Series consoles are really nice with some amazing features that put the competition firmly in the mediocre category. Smart Delivery, BC, cross-play/cross-buy, Gamepass, Xcloud, Play Anywhere, Quick Resume to name a few. These are all amazing features that are baked into the consoles to be used for the entire generation. The games can come in time but the hardware is fixed for the duration. You mentioned that Microsoft have released nothing since 2019 when they have released plenty including the single most impressive title with one of the biggest leaps forward in technology that i've ever seen (Flight Sim). They also have more than a likely chance to outpace Sony on game releases for the rest of the generation and beyond.
Don't say that. That is a taboo here. You will be put down on the cross, if you tell them, they can play their exclusive on their monstrous rig.
I'm not even sure what that means.“Play a leading role in democratizing gaming”
I hope they succeed and go further.
It's all there with streaming. Not sure what you mean.
Those ratios are similar actually. Also they aren't buying any of those companies.
It means that you can spend 15 bucks a month and just play the games however you want, at no additional cost. That's the future MS envisions. No need to pay 700 bucks to a scalper.
Lame. Try harder.
I’m really curious about Scorn myself considering the gameplay reveal was late last year. I’d love to see the progress they’ve made since then if anything.
Moving gaming into a new era of hardware irrelevance, similar to PC. All that would be left is services that run on any device. Similar to how anyone can watch movies from any studio on any DVD player. Or how you can stream services from multiple digital subscriptions on any TV.
They can buy it. Just like how Microsoft bought bethesda.
Might be saving that for Sunday, or when the quarter ends after a post E3 flurry of new subs
We believe that games, that interactive entertainment, aren’t really about hardware and software. It’s not about pixels. It’s about people. Games bring people together,” said Spencer. “Games build bridges and forge bonds, generating mutual empathy among people all over the world. Joy and community – that’s why we’re here.”
They already did. Gained 10m in gamepass. It was 8m, and jumped to 18m (now is 23m, insiders info).
I’ll take the CEO’s word thank you.
Full streaming will never kill generations. Just like Tablets didn't kill laptops. You will always have some tens of millions that will buy a box. Then you have the emerging markets. Unless they find a way were a digital stream box or usb has every advantage over the traditional, there will be new ones.
Yes you'll take his word - just not his numbers
.
Praise the monopolist who is about to take over an industry.
Nintendo 4 LYFE!
They aren't buying those companies. The fact you're comparing then to Bethesda shows you don't know the financial and infrastructural differences
Isn't buying an entire publisher to keep games specifically away from certain devices the opposite of what they're preaching?
Some would have you think in 3 days Satya is gonna pull an Xbox 180 and pull the plug after the make-or-break E3
But Phil is such a cool guy!
Its all about what the casul masees want, not the hardcore. If the ease and simplicity of streaming clicks with the masses, then it doesnt matter what the hardcore want.
So you're telling me Satya is reacting to a small minority spreading FUD on Twitter? Well that's not a good look for a CEO, lol.
No disrespect but you’re a random guy on a forum telling me that I need to doubt what the CEO of Microsoft is saying .. I meanYes you'll take his word - just not his numbers
In a way the games will be available on a wider range of devices since the acquisition with the number of different entry points into the Xbox eco-system...
No, he's been clear on being "All In" before, this is just another marketing push leading up to E3. It's not any sort of direct FUD narrative course correction. It's not news. It's just getting in the news cycle again during a week of hype, while illustrating some stuff like business roadmaps. Remember, E3 is for investors in the end.
That's not all in, that's only half in unless they plan on killing native support for Xbox and Windows.
hahahhahhahaahah
they will this e3. i hope they showed. so they can shut up those annoying people, who says gamepass is a failure.
So more of an xbox democracy than a gaming one. Who would have thought that bringing political analogies to gaming would be as deceptive as actual politics.
Look i'll put it another way, do you still think we will be gaming on consoles 30 years from now?
