After the debacle launch and early specs with the so called weak graphics, can we admit Microsoft slowly but surely gained their swagger back.

The new powerful system next year
The new power system in August
Backward Compatibility success
EA access with Need for Speed and Unravel free today plus Madden early.
Xbox one games on the PC= Forza in 4k is amazing and Quantum Break on PC
Xbox Live updates
First 4K console
Halo popping right now

Sooner or later the folks who turned their backs will return or as I say is returning.

Gotta give respect where it's due. Good job Spencer.

Explain your reasoning sir?


How could I forget Xbox Gamers with Gold oh gosh
Console power, resolution, and FPS are not reasons they had a slow start.
We've gone over the reasons XB1 had a slow start a million times on here.
Nothing against you, I just don't feel like rehashing this particular conversation again right now.

XB1 is better today then it was at launch.

Not even close.

They're still clueless as ever.

Announced the S version of the console then announcing Scorpio at the same conference making the s completely useless and garaunteeing a section of potential customers are just going to wait.

Still barely any first party studios and the ones they do have are just churning out the same damn games that are selling less and less.

Still with their draconian rules for indie games that is pissing those studios off and made Microsoft an afterthought with indies.

Releasing all their games on PC thereby making xbox pointless to own.

The thing is they never needed to recover. MS panicked. I really believe they would have sold around the same ball park being themselves imo. In the US it's not a super huge gap. X1 launching the same time as the PS4 worldwide made this a massacre. But pretty much this is what was supposed to happen last gen. But Sony fukked that up and still past the 360 by with a head start.

They still doing aite. They just need to be cool with 2nd place. They'll never beat Sony worldwide. But I agree on your points though.

Thread is obviously about xbox and not Microsoft as a whole

then thread title needs to be changed...regardless as long as other avenues of income are coming and MS wants to stay in the console market they will recover...

....and? If the xbox division was a separate company not attached to the Microsoft behemoth they would have been out of business a long time ago.

They're poorly run and can incur billions in losses because it's just a drop in the bucket to Microsoft as a whole.

The gaming division is inept.
