@UltimateOtaku91 don't buy one, save the money for all the good PS5 games coming out.

Answer Hell no...

@EVIL-C If it runs PS4 games think about it. I buy a Steam Deck 2 before I buy anything with the spyware that is Windows 10/11/12.

@EVIL-C That's just a sign sony has giving up on VR2.

It's a total failure and waste of money. I wish I had never got one.

I'm not paying $70 for this junk and the servers will be shut down in less then a year.

I'm not voting on what games because I'm wait for next week when there's real info.

@bpomber Who cares if they still buy the Xbox hardware, we still get the Xbox games on PS5!? It's still better on PS5 Pro.

@PegasusActual93 Will Fallout 5 even make it out before PS7?

@dschons now they can port it.

@UltimateOtaku91 Too much money in selling PS5 games to go with #2.

PS5 Pro the best place to play PS5 & Xbox games.

They are ok with Xbox being dead when they are selling PS5 games and making far more money by doing so. They will just drop the Xbox brand and fold everything into Microsoft games be 100% 3rd party.
Plus all the switch 1/2 games they will sell. You don't need a Xbox brand without the console hardware.

@dark_knightmare2 They had good 1st party games for the 360 and that make a difference.

Timdog on why Xbox is going third-party

Tim has heard that Call of Duty may not be coming to game pass.

Hardware sales have not met the projected sales and the CFO got spooked.

In the last three months of last year, they had consoles for $350 and no one cared.

Xbox One was more wanted than Series consoles.

They said the hardware is dead, and they are seeing declines in hardware year over year.

Game pass is unsustainable; the market they have is not enough to offset the cost.

Tim heard from someone at Microsoft that you may not like Xbox when they get Activision. They want ROI.

He heard that Xbox has an insane showcase with tons of games, but everyone is going to be saying asterisks.

The leaks happened because a Microsoft employee who didn't want this to happen leaked it, so there would be a public outcry.

Microsoft now has no problem buying more companies in the future if all games go to all platforms.

Tim thinks they will go all-digital, with ads on game pass (pre-roll or at the end of a chapter e.g. Like a Dragon) and AI community managers.

@PVTHudson STALKER 2 will come to PS5 after the Xbox version.

@Rayman123 No one should view any company run by the ccp as a role model.

FOR CLARITY. I'm saying multiplatform stuff for Xbox is happening, not the "Sarah Bond will announce it."

It would be awful to let Sarah take the heat for this, since it's failure of Xbox projects Sarah wasn't even vaguely involved in, since 2012, that has led to this.

Microsoft has essentially decided they aren't going to make enough money with the current strategy. They want to build healthier margins and cash flow using Sony's install base, to then reinvest in growing the Xbox ecosystem using that money.

@CharlieChooChoo They still will be using a out of date game engine that hold back what the game could be with modern game engine. Bethesda should be using ID Tech or UE5.

@LifeGirl It's looking like the Xbox series is the last generation of Xbox hardware.

@dschons No one cares about that thing.

If this havens the Xbox brand is dead. Why would they kill 20+ year old brand?

It's going to the backlog I got Tekken 8, Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth and Persona 3 Reload.

@UltimateOtaku91 Nope not going to haven its not a free to play or live service game.

@Grumblevolcano They have games if ported to PS5 would make them alot of money, but they will not.

@theSpectre Microsoft is a $2.7 trillion company they have money to burn. (Microsoft net worth as of January 05, 2024 is $2733.21B)

Maybe it coming out on PS5 because it's going free to play!?

I think we could see anything from Microsoft that is free to play.

I could see the multiplayer part of halo infinity coming out for the PS5 because it is free to play.

@Luigia They should still leave that Halo 5 out of Master Chief Collection, I would buy a PS5 Enhanced version of Master Chief Collection.

@Nei Not even 23, it so meh.

@CielloArc Pirates Gold was a good game years back and AC: black flag was good.

@NotSoCryptic Wasn't $350 the cheapest the Xbox series X was going for?

@Jay767 None and it's not our problem if xbox is pointless.

@Keyblade-Dan The game is a waste of ssd space on the Xbox series.

Maybe they are doing a microsoft 1st party only gamepass on PS5?

Sea of Thieves is so meh I wouldn't care. Yes I have played it, I still have microsoft lame gamepass.

Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth
Tekken 8
Granblue Fantasy: Relink
Persona 3 Reload
Helldivers 2
Final Fantasy VII Rebirth
Alone in the Dark
Rise of the Ronin
Dragon's Dogma 2

@Dexxyx Wrong, Dreamcast was first with multiplayer gaming on consoles. It even came with a 56k modem.

@Bionic-Spencer Disney is a company run by morons who have ben putting out movies that are losing alot of money this year.

At this rate could it out sell the PS4?

@UltimateOtaku91 Your forgetting about P3reload.

@mariomaster96 Not before the PS6 comes out. It will be a crossgen game for PS5/PS6.

@GamingFan4Lyf Did you even see that fable trailer? It's not going to be a good game.

I'm not upgrading to Premium, next year I'm having it downgraded to Essential. This sale is useless and pointless trash.

I'm not buying before they do a PS5 version of Red Dead 2.

@ArcticSin Microsoft hates all Linux users.

@Drago201 @Arkham24601 He's not going to do that, he wants you to sell your PS5 to buy a Xbox Series.
