If Phil weren't up against two systems, you'd probably have a point. I honestly don't think he anticipated Sony unveiling two consoles. That was an unexpected curve ball, I think. You noticed he hasn't unveiled the Series S yet or even hinted at it. Which leaves me to believe he wanted to give the impression that only one system would be launching the market (Series X) and of course Sony would also only have one system as well. It is the perfect bluff.......if only it had gone that way.

It's easier for two systems to corner one system into a pricing war since you could be very agile price wise and still penetrate the market comfortably as one system could easily offset the other's losses. I feel like this is where the power difference came from.

ya make it sound like the series x needs a whistle

So you are saying Phil is clueless. Well, I agree.

20 years of being doomed, just built record number of game studios and building the most powerful console in the world.

RIP Xbox, it’s like we never knew ya.
MS is like the government, & Phil is like those sweet-talking politicians you seen on TV, where they think every problem can be solved by throwing more money at a problem. The government & well MS prove otherwise.

We're going to find out real soon. He publicly said he would be watching Sony's price, but the way things are shaping up, he may have to reveal his before Sony - especially with that November 6 leak. Other than the Series S, he may have exhausted his hand. I just found that Sony canceled their stream and moved it into September for further notice right when Phil canceled all of his for August. It looks like Sony is going to run the clock down until Phil gives in and announce the price.

It actually looks like Phil is the one who is waiting for Sony to reveal their price as MS keeps postponing their Xbox price reveal until after Sony events.

Seems more like by postponing his announcement, he's forcing Sony to delay theirs. With less time between the announce and release date, that is basically a multiplier on the pressure for both sides to come in lower on price or whatever else they use to sell the console since there's little time to change perceptions once it drops. Of course, only you would say that MS not revealing the S leaves them without cards while the PS5 having to already announce an All Digital edition gives them greater flexibility, as if dropping a commodity IO component gives greater price flexibility than a console designed specifically for a lower price point, but you also always credit Sony for waiting and say that MS waiting if then being forced into it. It's *almost* as if you are unable to violate your prime directive, no matter how many divide by zero errors you have to ignore.
 
Wasn't Sure where to put this one, but it feel like it belongs in the Next Gen discussion




Looks Decent visually, though very generic. I got bored just watching the video. It's exactly what I don't want to see.

It's supposed to be next-gen only right? The cloth is stiff, the collision seems nonexistent, the AI looks weak. It makes me think of Anthem a lot for some reason. I would have liked to see them bumping into each other, or more sophisticated interaction. It might as well be a PS2 game, mechanically, for all I've seen so far.

Also noted Screen Space reflections, though I don't expect RT in every game and SSR is better than nothing. Environments seem very tight too.

The real bottleneck for these machines is going to be imagination, effort, and talent, imo.

If there are easy difficulty options, I might actually get that on release. Godfall and Miles should keep me busy with the PS5 for a bit.
 
If falling is going up, I agree.
Up? 40-50 million Xbox One sold,17k sold in July and no money made with Gamepass.

A shredding by the media this whole generation plus after the abysmal xsx showings.

Something will give and I don't think it's going to take long.

60-70 million sold so far, with more sales incoming. Also had record quarter last quarter.

17k sold in July

500k sold in July.

and no money made with Gamepass.

Aaron already confirmed they make a profit with Game Pass (more than can be said for Netflix)

Media loves all the games that Xbox has been showing, just sad that there is a lack of game play shown. Better games shown than anything shown by Sony.

Agreed. I think Sony will be going bankrupt sooner than later.
