I could give AF about both Sony and Microsoft...but MS moving sloppy as all hell. I will still say to this very day that they should have focus mainly on software than hardware.

• The first Xbox was a swing but a miss in the market
• 360 era was dope but further proves that they do not know shyt about hardware (especially quality control)
• XBONE yall know what it was (Cloud fiasco, 1st party games lol, etc)
• Series S/X (juelzing over a overkill deal that sounds crippling once the reality hits that Activision is toxic, Blizzard is Blizzard, and MS is misguided by all of these publisher buys)

This whole thing makes me appreciate sitting this one out in the console game, because both companies do not get it. Damn live services, FOMO, Cloud blah blah blah, what happened to exclusives and a reason to run to the fukking Gamestop to cop a console?

Between Nintendo being bytchmade with ceasing and pimping out their old ass console, Sony being Sony, and Microsoft trying to play Monopoly on easy mode....thank God for the Steam Deck and chips that help gamers to be able to enjoy games in the time of inflation and greedy tactics.

Microsoft might as well pull out if the console market.

Xbox estimated sales for this quarter is about 1 million globally. This is bad. Xbox series total estimated sales is 18 million-19.5 million.

Estimated PS5 North America sales for this quarter is estimated 1.6-1 7 million.

That means Ps5 NA sales alone is 60%-70% greater than Xbox global sales for this quarter. We are going back to PS2 vs Xbox days. Not even The Xbox one was getting blown out this bad.

This is bad. You cannot spin these numbers as positive. A 30% decline in HW this early in a console life is bad.

I don't understand how Phil Spencer still has a job.

Yeah, as someone that actually want Microsoft to stay in the game and be competitive this is worrying. You know when Phil and the other execs are quiet that its bad
