Bizzaro thinking? This is how the majority of XB gamers think as non subscribers make up the majority.
If I am ever forced into GP, I would go leave with the quickness.
First off, I'm a console gamer and I care about PC. So your point is invalid there.
Secondly, this report from back in August 2020 states there are 3 billion gamers worldwide and nearly half of them play on PC. So again your point of "most people" is invalid because this shows there are plenty of people gaming on PC's.
3 Billion People Worldwide Are Gamers, and Nearly Half Play on PCs - ExtremeTech
A new report claims that 48 percent of all gaming happens on PCs, with a whopping 3.1B gamers worldwide across all platforms, consoles, and mobile devices.
www.extremetech.com
"The data here is from DFC Intelligence, via PCGamesN, and suggests that the PC-versus-console framing for understanding gaming is outdated. Only 8 percent of gamers identify exclusively as console gamers, meaning most gamers play across multiple devices. At any rate, the PC market was expected to grow at 3.5 percent CAGR through 2022 back in 2019."
Though, it is true, that this 8% spend the most money per gaming device.
So like I said, since all of Xbox exclusives can be played on PC, then PC/PS (and Switch) if you want has been the perfect combo for nearly half of the gaming population ( me included ).
Its crazy talk because you act like GP is taking things away. Its the exact opposite. MSFT is pouring in a huge amount of resources to entice more Xbox gamers into the GP ecosystem. They have devs making a lot of games that will appear Day 1 on GP. In the meantime you can play what's on offer now and its a huge list.
If you like paying full price for games then by all means don't subscribe. But I don't see how GP hurts nonsubscribers, if anything its getting harder and harder not to subscribe if you want to save while being able to play a lot of different games. It really sounds like you're just looking for something to complain about but GP is the wrong target. Sure, you can get on MSFT for their lack of exclusives but there's still a lot of value on the Xbox platform.
I was talking about console gamers. Gamers that only want to game on consoles. Not gamers who enjoy gaming on multiple devices.
Those gamers are the Facebook and Candy Crush gamers. Look at the PC game sales compared to console game sales for the games that WE play. The absolute vast majority of PCs can't run games like Horizon Zero Dawn, Cyberpunk 2077, Flight Simulator or Gears 5.
But for console gamers, PC does nothing for them. So Xbox and Switch is best for them, and then they can use their potato pc that has candy crush on it, can play God of War 2 on PS Now.
You were talking about console exclusive gamers then. The 8% of the gaming population.
Where is your data to back that claim up re: FB and Candy Crush gamers?
"According to NewZoo, the most popular games on PC right now are League of Legends, Rainbow Six: Siege, Valorant, Minecraft, Counter-Strike: Global Offensive, GTA V, CoD: Modern Warfare, Overwatch, Apex Legends, and PUBG. The most popular games on Steam? CS:Go, DOTA 2, PUBG, Fall Guys, and GTA V."
Doesn't look like Candy Crush to me.
Yes, you're right in terms of sales, like I said the 8% console exclusive gamers spend the most money on their devices.
For those that want only to game on consoles, then the best combo IMO would be $399 PS5 digital, $299 XSS and a Switch if they want the best of all worlds. Or if you don't want a Switch you can get a PS5/XSX for around the same amount of money.
I see what they are doing. This doesn't change what else I see.
Also for me/most Buying>Renting you guys saying otherwise are the minority.
We know less than 25 million and that's with inflated subs($1 for 90 days) and being on many platforms.
That's a pretty small % actually.
However... it has grown at a decent rate.
Where is their data on the casual games are are in the wall garden of facebook, and similar? Look at Steam and the average PC. Most of th e PC's on steam alone don't meet the minimum for the newest games.
There are billions of PC's in the world. You think they are playing all those shooters? No. Most people are playing candy crush, slots, minesweep and solitaire on them.
Write me a bot program so I can get my damn RTX 3080. lol. I am tired of Newegg shuffles. I never win the chance to purchase one.
For years I've noticed that when you struggle to have a discussion, you resort to insults. Gather yourself man!
For sake of argument....the Game Pass cult is growing fast. You can't stop them.
It's pacing to be 50 million subs by end of 2022/early 2023. More subs than there was Xbox consoles most of last gen. Welcome to the minority.

Xbox Series X | S Preorder Help/Info Thread
https://news.xbox.com/en-us/2020/09/17/xbox-series-x-xbox-series-s-pre-orders-september-22/ Next week, beginning September 22, you’ll be able to pre-order both Xbox Series X, our most powerful console ever made, and Xbox Series S, our smallest console ever delivering next-generation...
JinCa, I know you're not a Halo guy anymore. But you have to at least play Halo 3 now. Idk if it's the res up scale, improved assets or the 60fps, but it's so freaking good now.
Don't think so. I believe you can play all those on mobile now. Smartphones are pretty much mini-PC's these days with all the games they can play.
Again, where is the source for all these claims? I've shown you mine already that came from a data analysis company called DFC Intelligence which has almost 30 years of experience.
"DFC Intelligence was established in 1994 and its core team has over 100 years of combined experience in the game and digital media industry. DFC has done major research and consulting projects for most of the largest companies involved in the industry. Over 300 companies in over 30 countries worldwide have bought our syndicated research reports."
Anyways, my point was for console exclusive gamers, for a similar amount of money as purchasing/building a decent gaming PC rig, you can buy all 3 of the next-gen consoles, PS5, XSX or XSS, Switch.
For multi-device gamers such as myself, PC/PS best way to go and MS's made it easier since all their Xbox games is and will be on PC going forward.
I got it from that Matt guy on twitter, he's been updating that for a while I'm sure there is already a link in that thread to his twitter account but if not I can add it.You may wanna post said link here in the help thread

To be fair, there's been a whole bunch of remastered titles over the past years and I didn't see some of you Xbox fans complaining then.
Nintendo has the Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening, Panzer Dragoon, Mario Kart / Mario Party are basically the same games, haven't changed much from WII U.
Xbox has Halo: Master Chief collection, Gears of War Ultimate collection then there are remastered multiplatforms COD MW, COD MW 2, Resident Evil 2, Resident Evil, Resident Evil 3, Crash Bandicoot N. sane trilogy, Spyro Reignited, Metro Redux series, Shenmue 1 and 2, Bioshock collection, Burnout Paradise, borderlands handsome collection, Dark Souls, GTA V, Skyrim, Tomb Raider Definitive Edition... the list goes on.
Demon's Souls is a complete remastered version that is better in all accounts. FF7 Remake is a completely different game than the original, from the way you play to graphics and its plot. It's more like a parallel universe with different storytelling and the verdict is still out on where Square Enix is going with the story and its subsequent part remakes because it is definitely not the same. I admit, Miles is more of like a 10 hours DLC but it's also selling at a lower price. It's a nice bridge story between Spiderman 1 and its sequel while introducing us to Miles.
My point is, this isn't something new over the past decade. Where was all the outrage back then? If there wasn't any, why now?
Demon's Souls is a full remake not remaster
I'm sure that's what you meant to say. Oh and Xbox remastered Fable in the past as well and I wish they do it again but for all 3 of them lol. I would much rather pay to play a remade version of a game with new assets etc than play an old game in BC for free. The games that get the 4K BC enhancements are fine but most of the BC games don't have that, they usually look really bad and they were made to run at much lower res tv's than most here have. There are a lot of games I'd like to see get full remakes like GTA Vice City, GTAV, Kameo (and a sequel) The Force Unleashed games, Battlefield BC 2, Saints Row, Hydro Thunder, ES Oblivion and I could go on and on. I have no problem paying for a remake if they actually do the work, I would prefer that over a smeared badly upscaled game from 2001-2013, as I said that 4K update some get helps split the difference but a true remake would always be the choice I'd go with.
I watched a video about gamepass a while ago. One comment about the video sums it up perfectly for many people.
"Gamepass is good value, but there is not a lot of good games."
You can give me a collection of CDs (for analogy sake) but none of the songs I like for 10bucks, but I rather spend 15bucks on one CD with the songs I like.
Value is NOT what you GET for your money, value is getting the things you WANT, for the money.
For gamepass to be successful, it need to have flow of good games people wanted to play.

I am a PS and Xbox fan. Just prefer Xbox a little more because it has more games that I like.
Demon's Souls is a full remake not remaster
Same game, same characters, same bosses, same map, same campaign, same animations. Even the devs said that if you could play the first Demon's Souls in your with your eyes closed, you could do this one.
I would say reserve "remakes" for games like FFVII Remake.
From the way you post, it's more like preferring Xbox "a lot more".
10 major differences between the Demon's Souls remake and original
I would say it's a remake. They've upgraded enough from the original's visuals and some gameplay aspects while remaining faithful to what made the original so well received.
Remastered are more for titles that just got upgraded resolution but game engine is basically the same.
You can usually tell because remakes differences are so apparent as opposed to remasters.
You can't compare titles like Demon's Souls Remake, FF7 Part 1 remake to some BC enhanced Xbox titles. The devs have changed a lot more of those remakes than just a patch and you guys know it.
Look at Gears 5. While the enhancements are welcome, you can tell it's the same game.
Now look at the big difference between Demon's Souls original and remake.
Same with FF7 Remake and original, even more stark differences.
