No. Their plans are soulless corporate nonsense. They're prioritising what gamers want and have not had that as their main priority since the glorious days of the Xbox 360. Microsofts Xbox department needs mass firings. From the top down. I get they think that their strategy will pay off in the end, at least financially, though things are not shaking out that way. They also thought Xbox One was the future of television... They bought up all these games companies and what have they done with them? Shut down good one's and supported bad ones pushing out flop after flop. Xbox is done.

Of course, Xbox has a superb ecosystem with very good exclusive games, better service thanks to the gamepass, greater diversity of games. It's very good to have the 2 platforms but I had to keep only one. I will without hesitation keep Xbox instead of the PS5 for many reasons. This video saying is just clicbait, of course Xbox is not dead! They've never even been stronger in terms of games and services, and the games that are coming show that Xbox continues to assert itself. This PlayStation generation is objectively the worst we've ever had, with very few exclusive games, practically only remasters or sequels, no new IP for years apart from flops like Concord, a disastrous turn towards gaming services, absurd price increases in all sectors, even publishers are moving away from more and more PlayStation like Square Enix. In fact, if this KZbinr looked things in the face instead of only looking at the sale of plastic boxes, he would see that it is PlayStation that is in difficulty today. Playstation is not dead but its future clearly smells musty.

I just really don’t understand what Xbox is doing right now. I was a big fan of the Xbox One X and completely bought into the Series X/S generation with the promise of power and tons of games that they were working on. They bought tons of studios and we were going to see games left and right - and 4 years later, we’ve seen next to nothing. I’m not saying Sony is knocking it out of the park when it comes to games, but it just seems like they are keeping the ship steady, which is much better in contrast to Xbox. I’ve sold my Xbox, built a PC, and bought a PS5 for console stuff. It’s just hard to see the Xbox as a console platform that’s very compelling for the future. Unless they start fulfilling the promise of releasing games, I think the Xbox has another generation left at best before it becomes a software publisher and all in on PC Microsoft gaming. The Xbox really does need someone to come in there and kick some butt to turn things around.

Currently, they don’t seem particularly interested in creating a handheld device or accessories. Given the substantial investments they’ve made in acquiring studios, their primary focus appears to be recouping those costs. Many titles that should be Xbox exclusives seem to be transitioning to multi-platform releases. There are even discussions-though they may just be rumors-suggesting that Halo could be moving in that direction as well. I can only hope they find a way to emerge from this slump.

I’ve had a series S for nearly three years, with Gamepass, and as a casual gamer it has been fine. Last six months though, there have been no new titles making it a bit stale, and it’s gone up in price significantly compared to when it started. If I were buying a console now, undoubtedly it would be a PS5; if you’re a casual gamer & can get a cheap series S second hand, there’s enough to keep you amused for a bit yet

[@Thetechchap]

Yeah agree with that. Like you say, for casual gaming it's totally fine.

If the only argument you have is " there is not a lot of new exclusives well its the same shit for PS." Good quality games requires a enormous amount of time.

I've had my Series X since launch and have never bought a game for it. Had Gamepass for a while and played the first party stuff...I let that subscription expire over a year ago and I don't think I've turned the console on since. Xbox peaked with the 360. What a machine that was!

[@Watchandlearn91]

What got me into Xbox instead of playstation to begin with was because I liked the controller much better. Nowadays though its just because that's where I started and I feel that's the same way for most people. Sony came out of the gate first with the first playstation before Xbox arrived on the scene so Playstation has always been ahead in sales. Unless someone gets angry enough to switch, they probably won't. Xbox has a few good things going for it: Game Pass (although not for me but I know so many people who sub), the price point of the Series S, the controller ergonomics, several exclusives such as Forza (by exclusive I just mean not on PlayStation). However, the main drawback and gripe I have with Xbox at this point is their egregious pricing for external SSD storage. I mean come on, you can add 4x the storage for the same price on a PlayStation or PC because you can just use a regular .m2 nvme and not some proprietary adapter. At the end of the day, I don't think most people care about specs of a console and just want to walk in, turn it on, and play the games they want to play without any fuss and both PS and Xbox do a fine job at that right now.

[@inhabitantX]

microsoft doesnt care about hardware anymore, software all the way

[@Aliessil]

I'd been getting Xboxes for several generations, but this time round I went with Playstation. When I looked at exclusives, the PS5 just had a much better line-up, for me. On top of that, the Xbox exclusives which did interest me could all be played on my PC, so there was no point buying an Xbox. I wonder if the best thing they could do is add Steam support, and position the Xbox as being both a current-gen console AND a cheap replacement for gaming PCs (maybe not top-end ones, not sure)?.

[@weplayvrgames]

They won't add steam support unless they are legally forced to allow other markets on they hardware there's just no profit in it

[@stevens1041]

I knew Xbox was in trouble once I heard about the Series S. There was massive amounts of cope initially, but many developers have confirmed it, the Series S let all the air out of Xbox's tires this generation. Should have been Series X only, could have just done a few promotions, storage options, colors and such, with that. Lets see next generation. I hope Microsoft will try again, the market needs Xbox.

[@Cyborgon]

I have the ps5 and the Xbox series x and i only play my xbox, i keep trying to go back to ps5 but i dont enjoy it as much, so im actually in the process of selling my ps5. I've seen a few of these KZbin videos recently having a go at xbox, but i completely disagree and Game pass on xbox is brilliant, i also have a gaming laptop and a lot of the games on ps5 are also on PC. The only ps5 game i enjoyed was god of war and i stopped playing it after that, tried other games but i kept going back to my xbox and laptop. Also the xbox controllers last longer with batteries, the ps5 controllers annoyed me that they died so quickly and unless you bought another controller or you had to wait until it charged or buy a long cable which seemed pointless. With xbox you can just replace the batteries and your back in the game and they last a long time. The playstation portal is one of the worst devices ever made for a console. And you can play xbox anywhere with your phone or tablet and a controller attachment, with remote play whilst the console is in sleep mode which makes it handheld or the console off and just use cloud streaming which works out so much cheaper than the portal. The psvr 2 doesn't have many games and has been slated since it's release for being incredibly expensive and lackluster in games compared to the competition the quest 3 which i also have and its pretty class! The ps5 is still a great console. Its just not for me.
