  • Game Pass does not appeal to me, but it is a successful subscription service no doubt
  • I would rather have new first party games to buy instead of Game Pass
  • Halo was released without Forge and Co-op. The rest of the game was finished. Look at TLOU2, it's been almost 3 years and we still don't have the Factions they talked about for it. STILL WAITING. And yet TLOU2 sold like gangbusters, and it was only half finished. Halo Infinite scored great with critics/media.
  • Samsung TV access will be niche IMO, and won't benefit consumers or Xbox very much
MS is doing a lot of things right. But they have like 35 game studios. GIVE US GREAT GAMES and then you will be the best and leave NIN and PS in the dust.

Is it successful? MS's vision is for billions of subscribers, it has barely got more than the lowest selling Xbox had users, and it is already on ios & Android mobile devices.

The rest of Halo wasn't finished.

I am going by what they told us. I have no other way to determine what is successful for them other than them telling us it is successful.

Halo Infinite was missing Forge and Co-op.

They aren't going to tell you it is unsuccessful. I'm not even saying it is unsuccessful, just saying it is extremely far from the vision Xbox keeps saying.

It was also missing other things, like player progression or basic things like a stats page. The very fact we are 7 months post launch and Coop & Forge are simply 2 things in a big list that need implementing/fixing shows just how unfinished it is.

They need to do a whole clean sweep of management or really take a hard look at what's gone wrong and who needs to go, the core game is fun enough so the developers are decent, but it's just been a s*** show and not exactly getting much better, even when there's not exactly much competition.
