Xbox will die in our lifetime

>>725019250 (OP)
About time

they already announced the next Xbox is just going to be a pre-built windows PC
It's dead.

It's taking its sweet fucking time

And that’s a good thing?

the computer you're posting this thread from?
it's an xbox now

Pretty based of Microsoft to make their president a black woman during it's final hours.

i love their marketing campaign. my switch 2 is an xbox, steam is an xbox. let's call everything xbox, so they lose their trademark.

Reminder that this giant Xbox blunder seems like it was a bit of corporate sabotage on Sony's part. The prevailing theory is that Microsoft was essentially spying on Sony's future plans for their new console, and Sony led Microsoft to believe they were going to announce a bunch of consumer unfriendly practices like in OPs pic such as forcing always being online, making it so you couldn't sell or share used games, etc.

This paved the way for Sony to show up at E3 after Microsoft's disastrous showcase and auto-win the next console generation by going "lol all that faggy shit Microsoft is doing? we aren't doing any of that shit".

And all it took was one man and his uncompromising vision of something.

Slapping an extra $100 on the Xbox price tag and selling you a Kinect you never asked for?

People still blame this E3 as the reason Xbox died and not the decade of liquid shit after

This was the event that turned the average consumer against the Xbox thoughbeit

>>725020432
Bone and PS4 reveal felt like the end of consoles to me, or that they had entered zombie mode.
Which is basically true given the absolute state of them today.

Don was already working hard to undo everything Moore accomplished until then. The E3 Presentation was just the final nail in the coffin.

PS4's launch was hilarious for how thoroughly Sony embarrassed Microsoft.

>>725019250 (OP)
too bad microsoft probably won't

>>725020432
Blaming it all on that E3 is an exaggeration but that entire period from the first announcement with TV/COD to this E3 and the outrageous price due to the bundled Kinect all set the trajectory for those 10 years of liquid shit.

Nah, microsoft will come with some AI console slop.
Microsoft also has good IPs.

He is .... isn't he ?

M$ are probably tired of anything with low margins or high risk, especially since goypass flopped. So they'll likely just become publishers in a decade and eventually start selling off IPs / the Xbox brand.

Xbox is not dying, it is a plain suicide.
