MS pulling a Sega and leaving the console hardware business up to only Sony and Nintendo would be absolutely terrible for everyone, regardless of which side of the console war you are on.

Champions of physical games typically highlight the ability to trade or sell unwanted games, which platform owners artificially block when it comes to digital purchases.

It does when you need to use individual page clicks to quantify “engagement” to the people that write the checks.

I just want proper physical releases. 

Starfield was supposed to sell XBoxes. It didn’t. Might as well admit defeat and get whatever cash is out there from the PS5 crowd.

It never does.

most of that 120 gb is the 4k textures. on series S it's only around 30 gb. still hefty for seitch but not impossible especially if they use compression which is an option on switch.

Nothing about this needed to be formatted into a slideshow to more effectively communicate the information. 

Just looked up OnLive, whose name I had forgotten, which was letting me stream one of the Lego Batman games on my first android phone somewhere around 2012-2014. That feels like a long time for beta.

The sort of movie that has no blooper reel because all the mistakes are in the final cut and no one gave a shit.

billion dollars domestic at least. madame web-sweep incoming.

House I had Norm, House II has Cliff. Lovely.

Playing himself worked on Max Headroom as well.

not tonmention if this event is to let people try gamepass then it might be mainly for cloud gameplay in which case microsoft gamepass makes sense since it wouln’t be specifically xbox.

Wait, hold on, I’ve missed this past season of The Stupids.... so are exclusives... good now? Wasn’t a big issue with MS buying ActiBliz that it would lead to more exclusives which was bad... but now they’re doing the opposite of the thing that people were worried about and that’s... also bad?

I hope Elon Musk buys the X-Box brand and names it Twitter.

Correct. Saying “Microsoft Game Pass” is easier than saying “Xbox Game Pass & PC Game Pass.”

Isn’t game pass on PC not called “XBOX gamepass” anymore?
Wouldn’t it make sense to just advertise the event as Microsoft gamepass because its for PC and console, and they’re different products?

I think the big difference between the two is that Dennis at least seemed self-aware about his smugness.

They don’t want protection for workers, and they stand by that.
