Dring:"Certain developers and publishers have spoken to me saying they're baffled by Xbox's new strategy and they wonder why make an Xbox version"

Yes you are

He said that like a mic drop.

yes, you are

Y'all dudes argued me down for pages only to hear almost the exact same statements and sentiment Ive been making in this same thread and for years.

"Yes you are" is the best you got.

Meanwhile you posting

I would think that if they don’t go full pc soon 3rd parties will stop porting games for their hardware, there’s just no point unless they get a gamepass deal

And ya crew

This is the equivalent of a Coli Cac post.

"All 3rd parties love xbox!" Cause I said so"

Why do they always act like Nintendo doesn't count?

It’s the only way to make all these swirling , conflicting narratives make sense.

Why do they always act like Nintendo doesn't count?

Because most people buying hardware aren't making an either or decision between Nintendo and PlayStation or Xbox. There's been a generation Nintendo has sold 14 million and one where it sold over 150 million and if you add up the combined sales between PS and Xbox still comes to about the same number. Those two brands sales are a zero sum game.

Most people aren’t making a Playstation VS xbox choice either.

But that’s the narrative that helps some of you sleep at night.

Most people are, and they chose Playstation. If it wasn't so, Xbox would've been very close to PS5 in terms of install base.

No. This is the narrative you console warriors want to promote.

In reality when studies have been done by independent analysts and consultants they determined that people chose their brand/ecosystem and stay put.

Same way you can argue that nintendo has its base that’s catered to and unaffected by other hardware options. Sony has the same. And microsoft their own too.

This stuff yall fight about on forums is not informing the average consumer.

So why is xbox selling less consoels this generation and less than the generation before that if everyone is “staying put”?

Why is Playstation selling less consoles this gen and less than its best generations? Even though they are supposedly adding all these xbox users

Xbox currently has the most active console users they’ve ever had. Their base is their base.

You guys only have console wars as a perspective

Microsoft says only 3% of PlayStation players to switch consoles if Call of Duty becomes Xbox exclusive | Game World Observer

The UK’s Competition & Markets Authority (CMA) overestimates the importance of the Call of Duty franchise, according to Microsoft. The company is now trying to argue that this IP won’t make most PlayStation players switch to Xbox.
