RANT:
I really do hope that the next gen xbox goes for a more simplified naming system. Helix seems just fine to me. Avoid anything with an X or S suffix. Cause I was looking online ( read Reddit and retail forums) and the amount of idiocy/uninformed is staggering.

Swaths of people upset that a game or feature doesn't work for their xbox, only to find out that they have a One S or One X not a Series S/X and they didn't know the difference.

I think Sony realized consumers are dumb early and stuck with the simple numbering pattern for the PlayStation. Nintendo had to learn the hard way with the Wii and Wii U and have made clear definitive breaks in generations. Its time for Microsoft to do the same.
Imo if someone has no idea what they own and what it does that’s on them. Information is at our fingertips if you take the time to look it up. I’ve never been uniformed on a purchase on anything that I can remember going back to my 20’s.

I also agree they should keep the next XBox name something simple.

I think the fault goes primarily landscaping upon satya and the cfo, I forget her name. They had to be like, we need to get them numbers up even higher because our ai numbers are going lower
Let me guess, the pony is posting negative XBOX news.

Also some delusional people always thought that this would be sustainable , it's not with day 1 on Gamepass as a lot of others already saw the damage on sales it has done. Sooner or later the expenses WILL add up and catch up to you and MS will need to pay their dues. Either through passing the cost to the consumers (which they tried last year with huge Gamepass price increase and it has backfired now) or they started porting their games to other platforms to cover up that deficit.

That troll only has two people left that speak to him at this forum I see from the replies. You’d think he’d take the hint he’s not wanted here. Go slurp PS d*** and constantly troll MS/XB somewhere else.

Tim is crashing out over today's news. Hope he feels better, noone should be this invested.

 

Makes sense. Helix is probably a year and a half away at the earliest. I know in the past, gamers complained about it being debuted too early.

It also makes sense for them to show the Switch and PS logo on games that are not just on Xbox. They have a huge team for each game making a PS port (Call of Duty, Diablo, etc), and they deserve to have their work put in the spotlight as well.

Exclusive Xbox games obviously won't have those platform logos.
