Is this seriously even an issue?

Can we stop looking for excuses to be offended? This is getting silly.

What’s the incentive for retailers to implement these features?

This is all still hilarious to me since there won’t be any next gen games available for either at launch... Yeah, you’ll get Gamepass, but what are you going to play in November that you wouldn’t be able to get otherwise?

Purchased a Series X at Microsoft’s site.

Avowed, Fable, InExile Game, Starfield, Elder Scolls 6, Everwild.

I love the side and rear profile of this, and the quirky colored interior is very neat to see. Not immediately wild about the front end, but I think it’ll look better in person and peoples’ opinions on it will soften as we start seeing them on the road more.

That type of service has an enormous fixed cost, but it is fixed. You make money by reaching a certain scale. Just like Netflix - their content spending burn is enormous, but it isn’t something that scales with number of subscribers. Eventually you get enough subscribers to turn a profit (as Netflix has finally done…

Psst.

Seeing as they have Minecraft on everything from an Xbox to a toaster, I wouldn’t bee too worried...

Under former management? A bunch of Kinect games.

Sony purchased Insomniac, Naughty Dog, Bend, Sucker Punch, Guerrilla Games, and Media Molecule, but OK.

This is an impressive word salad you’ve got going on here.

The issue with Tencent has more to do with them being in the pocket of an authoritarian government.  

My guess is that they’ll release them on PS, but they’ll be included in gamepass on xbox, bringing more people to their subscription service, MS doesn’t care about console sales, they want people subscribed to GP

MS makes way more money off Minecraft by putting it out on as many platforms as possible.

Isn’t that the point of corporate sales? I’m sure they have a corporate sales department that you could have contacted, instead of trying to buy up their whole retail stock.

It’s a shame nVidia doesn’t specialize in either of those fields.

They wouldn’t have to compete with the bots if they weren’t supporting the bots.

This is also super frustrating as a business that uses hardware. We really needed to get Threadrippers before December 31st (Taxes) but they were on backorder out until as late as March.
