Just need to allow Xbox consoles to dual boot into Windows 11 and that will solve all demand problems.
Too bad we didn't stick with 10 being the last, then we'd have Windows X boxes.
So instead we get Windows Xi boxes?

100% agree. Microsoft owns the de facto premium gaming platform, but has never been able to execute on a strategy that takes advantage of it. The money snapping up studios would have been much better spent putting in an aggressive offer to buy up Valve.
That would be one of the worst ideas for the future of PC gaming imaginable. Would it benefit Microsoft? Maybe. But it's not the future that platform independence is needing right now. It's impossible to trust them to execute Valve's vision. The only benefits in the purchase would be making Xbox a primary platform and killing Proton development for Linux.

#23Well. I'm not spending $600 on a Xbox + tax, another $100 game pass just to get online play. And if they want to snap up game studios, they need to start branching out
I recently cancelled my gamepass subscription as well. They keep raising prices and I wasn't playing any of the games offered. It's honestly a lot cheaper in the long run to just buy games on sale than pay a subscription.
As a casual gamer with kids I find gamepass very good value for money. New games every month keeps kids happy and I always find something I want to play when I have time to. I guess gamepass may not be ideal for hardcore gamers.

#24The problem for Xbox is that PS5 has exclusive games, so from the consumer standpoint if you can get the Xbox games on PS5, but can’t get the important PS5 games on Xbox, then why would you buy the Xbox? Buying an Xbox means no Final Fantasy or Gran Turismo, etc.
You can mod skyrim on xbox at least unlike ps5
I don't think that's relevant to that many people.
