I'll give credit where credit is due, #AshaSharma is doing good given the constraints.

✅ Reduced #GamePass price
✅ Pushed Xbox as a brand

The problem is still constraints.

- #COD rumored absense from Game Pass will depend on how "good" the next installment is.
- #ProjectHelix depends on how good the exclusives are

My guess? Sharma knows this is the last hurrah for #Xbox and she's doind a do-or-break.

As PlayStation moves into being a console monopoly (Nintendo plays on its own market), we're getting late stage gaming.

PlayStation is testing Dynamic Pricing

If you don't live in a first world country, you're going to be gauged.

I can bet your ass #Microsoft will name their next "console" anything but "Xbox PC".

I hope they call it "Xbox U" for the lolz.

Valve will have to subsidize the #SteamBox. No way it will sell over a #PlayStation5.

Then my recommendation stands firm: buy a #PlayStation5.

Don't wait and don't think.

If you cannot afford a #PS5, a #SteamDeck is another cheap alternative.

It's a shame that no even Valve's #SteamMachine can rescue #PCGaming from dying by a thousand cuts.

Imagine selling a $700+ #SteamMachine that doesn't play #GTAVI.

It's the same with the #XboxAlly, the #PlayStation5 is the second best deal in gaming for GTA VI, being the #XboxSeriesS or #SteamDeck depending if you want to go back to Vice City or not.

Being a brand people now joke about.

Should you buy/keep an #Xbox console?

⛔ No

Why? Because there is no point:

→ Exclusives now hit PC, PS5, Switch even
→ Console and Game Pass will keep raising their price
→ Next Xbox will be pricey
→ Most GOTY are on PS5
→ PS+ is cheaper per year
→ No guarantee Xbox won't fuck up again

«If Halo comes to #PlayStation5 then I'm selling my #Xbox. I'm done.»

What surprises me is why you haven't sold it earlier 🤣

If that happens, I'm advocating for the hashtag #SignTheSurrender 🏳️

Given that #SarahBond teases the new Xbox as a pricier console, what do you think it's going to cost?

Well, no matter how #Xbox does, the problem is even if people *cheer* for the console platform to die, it's less competition.

Imagine PlayStation being the only console aside from the Nintendo Switch:

- #PlayStation6 at $799
- Games at $80~$100
- #PSPlus at $149/year

Your alternative will be a PC, which isn't a console nor works OOTB.

#Mugthief tells what's happening with #Xbox messages:

They lie to your face. One week they say one thing, the next they do exactly the contrary.

That's why nobody believes that Xbox will have a next get console, even if they announced a "multi-year" partnership with AMD.

Xbox new consoles are Dead On Arrival.

- #XboxAllyX: $1,000
- #XboxAlly: $600

The $600 unit is basically a #SteamDeck with a price hike.

The $1,000 is a unit that performs way worse than a laptop RTX 4050.

...And none of the plays Xbox console games! Are you serious!?

More than one year ago I posted this and I cannot believe everything is lining up... faster than I predicted.

Consoles can be handleds, but not all handleds can be consoles.

An #iPad is a handled, but is a tablet.

A #Switch2 is a handled, but also a console.

A #SteamDeck is a handled, but also portable computer.

So, the #XboxAllyX would be...

You can quote me on this:

If the #PS6 is sold at least $100 less than the next #Xbox, that console is dead.

As I suspected, it's easier to scale up slightly than scale down massively.

That's the way games should be developed nowadays, unless you expect your core audience to be on PC, like strategy games.
