At this point I think it’s a running gag for game news websites to make an article about xbox potentially dying and then having xbox re-confirm they’re working on next gen hardware
Its not exactly a secret that the games journalists writing for most media outlets literally hate anything Xbox related. Nearly every media article written about Xbox in the last 15 years has had some negative spin on it and some positive mention about how PlayStation or Nintendo are better.
I’ve always wondered why that was. My initial thought is that it’s because Microsoft is a five thousand pound gorilla with a history of anticompetitive actions, but Sony’s bs like their rootkit or their proprietary memory cards don’t get nearly as much discussion. Idk, I just want all three console manufacturers to stay healthy because less competition will only make the consumer milking worse.
Probably most of them have personal attachment to PlayStation or Nintendo. Grew up on the console or something. Its just popular to hate on Xbox, so the lemmings just unquestioningly go along with it I guess. The perfect punching bag, if you will.
As it is, Nintendo already stopped being competitive. Great move for their business but bad for consumers. Because now consumers that want a home console only have two choices, PlayStation or Xbox. Switch is a handheld with homes as an afterthought.
I think we’re witnessing the console model itself die in real time, and part of that is Xbox’s struggles.
And I hope people start to realize things like the stream deck give you WAY more options for games, and overall versatility z and cost so much less because you do not need to pay more… And more… And more…
