Xbox is LOST 

Finally the "fire and smoldering embers from hell bgm" has stopped playing. Wait, what's this.. "deserted desert ambiance"? Oh no

Except the ones that were fired.

If Microsoft hired Bobby, they would make way more money

more like, under no management!*

xbox is trash and i move to my old Nintendo switch on my moniter cuz xbox is trash even played on my tv or moniter the games were so garbage that had to put my xbox in the closest in the hallway! and after its paid off from finger hunt im goin to Retrun it to gamestop and see if i can tread it for the oled Switch! and one thing i hated about the xbox was that blu-ray and music player you had to download the fking blu-ray app like why didnt they just put it in the console pre bult like what they did with the ps4/xbox 360 u didnt have to download a dvd player

"It's just not true that if we go off and build great games, all of the sudden you're going to see console shares shift in some dramatic way." WTF was he smoking when he said this? Look over at Nintendo. They don't have the most powerful console yet they are selling it hand over fist. And why is that, Phil? The games, you moron!

He ended up being worst then don matrrick I know I misspelled it yet I don't give af

​@@inyourgranmaass3605Don mattock was honest about if you want an offline console get the 360 Ctrl Alt delete is Microsoft mo

He's right in that a console needs more than great games. Consoles with good games failed a bunch because of external factors, maybe coming into a crowded market or being too expensive for the average consumer or not having a killer feature that the competition has. The thing is, you do still need great games. The hardware and software sell each other. And you can't get great games if you keep buying and killing studios.

its the predsident of the borad that is the problom. N to the rs are always a problom. 80% of crime even in postions of power they are currupt. They are born that way. Remove the female n to the r from the compney, make shure she can make no choices of signficance. then it will get better. Do not and it will remain woke

should never bought an Xbox one....360 was better at everything. Control works for longer time without break, headset worked for years, while on one, me and all my friends 's headset break after EXACLY after 1 year. All games where temporary on xb one (only that zombie fun game wasnt) in 360 era games where 4 split screen, now just 2...sometimes

really have to fix my 360. so many memories on that thing.

@@themoocow7718 get your console fix. Because I bought myself the entire collection of PGR series. And two of the original games are backwards compatible for the 360. I plan to fully move to PC and just collect old games from old systems. Xbox is officially dead after what they did to Tango Games.

Don’t shorten the name, it was x-Bone. Because buyers got boned.

@@Kilthan2050 thanks. You know what's sad? I remember back in the day when everyone wanted the Xbox 720. Simple times man.

Yeah a few, like being at the top of the market, owning some of the top studios, and just having a hell of a lot more yearly earnings than PS. Trust me man, xbox is here to stay and it will continue to live in spite of you.

Funny enough Microsoft did borrow quite a number of ideas for the original Xbox from Sega.

​@TheOminousBlade I think you are bit delusional and ignoring a ton of signs.

@@ZalYagunRyaiWhat am I ignoring? They own activision, the creator behind one of the most successful FPS games in history. They aren’t even close to dead, I really haven’t given a crap about exclusives for 5 years because who needs them. It is no secret that the series x is more powerful so people buy it for that reason. Declinism is a stupid mindset.

Xbox doesn't care about you, Microsoft doesn't care about you. They're a corporation, not your friend. You don't need to come galloping in to defend them and your purchase. @@TheOminousBlade

Microsoft CEO said no to the approval of buying tango

@@therealjaystone2344 Can I have a source for this?

Sega pft. No. And that's coming from an avid Sega fan since the 90s. Sega only cares about Sonic, SMT, Yakuza, a handful of Mega Drive (Genesis) games (which does not include the Japan-exclusive remake of the first Phantasy Star but does include all three sequels. Even though it also includes Golden Axe III. Which was only released in the US on Sega Channel, making it unlikely Sega still has the original localized rom file) and the exactly four biggest games off Saturn and Dreamcast.

@@mattwo7 i was only using them as an example.

That Smiling Friends episode had great timing lmao

That’s highly not going to happen because a majority of the original Rareware devs left the company and started their own. I don’t even think I’d want to see a full fledged 3D Banjo-Kazooie game with the current management and standards they’re enforcing nowadays.

It won’t be enough. Microsoft is $70 billion in the hole which means they need to make large scale live services to please investors, as well as cut as many corners (employees) as they can. The stock market is ruining the industry. Never go public.

They could at least give the first two games the Spyro Reignited treatment. That would be low risk and make fans happy.

banjo aint popular enough for that, they should focus on crahs and spyro instead

I mourn Rare's parent company not being Nintendo very frequently. They would have made such a good home there...

Man, I miss old Nintendo

Now granted, that was a mandate of Japanese law on companies that operate mostly in the country. But still, the difference is staggering.

​@@kaistephens2694too good to be true I mean why would Nintendo take a pay cut but then I realized it was Japanese law I thought it makes perfect sense now makes sense why Sega was able to take a pay cut and have their loans forgiven in the early 2000s after they left the Dreamcast market

Also throughout their history they’ve only had actual layoffs one time in Europe. ONE TIME.

they're going to shut them down, probably buy company, shut it down, do nothing with its properties, decay the game industry as result

Because game development timeframes are long, have any game released by the acquired studios been started up after being obtained by XB or they only released ongoing projects? Shuttering Tango when they wanted to start a new game is not a good look, and even if a new Doom is coming they probably were in pre-production when Eternal was almost done Even Elder Scrolls 6 was announced before Xbox

They did. They got the IPs that the studios made and discarded the rest of "less value".

They are, they did. Those studios were the competition. Now they can't make games to compete with Microsoft Game Studios.

Yes they purchased them to bolster the appeal for Gamepass. That's what it was, they're putting all of their eggs in gamepass and it's not working.

And the worst part is: the people they fired are likely ones that made those bought out desirable in the first place. Another stupid decision is consulting with firms like SBI and similar.

@@manoftruth0935 | Oh yeah, Microsoft's layoff strategies are another enormous problem. They grossly underestimate the importance of veterans who've worked in the same environment for decades and all know how to work with one another. Instead, they focus on hiring cheap, new labour and firing the expensive senior staff. What that means is that everyone is constantly learning how to work together, and the studio's memory becomes very short. Follow that philosophy to its logical extreme and you get the half-a-billion-dollar disaster that was Halo Infinite.

@@PotatoPatatoVonSpudsworth- Don’t forget that Microsoft is always late to the party with what they do (look how long it takes them to release their systems in Japan) and rely too much on the hardcore edgy teen males and young adult men who snub the casual mass appeal audience that has allowed Sony and especially Nintendo to continue to thrive and dominate the video game market to this day.

That would require taking RISK. The gaming industry has been risk adverse for about 10 to 15 years now. All big corpos want to do is buy something successful or copy something successful. EX: Buying Blizz and every game company under the sun trying to have their own Fortnite. It they keep at that, I wouldn't be surprised if there was a gaming industry crash.

Insted the spent it hireing female n to the rs to postions of power thinking they would not shutter the compney for race and political reasons

I don't think that game even sold over a million units. None of Tango games did

Evil within 1 sold over a million copies

​@@ogolow570eventually it would have succumbed to sequel rot. Perhaps perhaps there's a intellectual property that will only exist in the prequels

​@JonathanTacoman Modern Xbox doesn't care about game sales though, all it cares about game pass subscriptions

Talk about seeing the future.

Trickle down economics works when its blanket tax cuts for net tax payers. Which is roughly 30% of the country at this point, and most taxes being paid by the 10%, which is anyone making over 100k outside if New York and LA. Trickle down doesn’t work when the government is allowed to pick winners and losers, which is what we have now. The small and medium businesss? They get shut down for three years while everyone is funneled into the big stores that give kick backs to government. In the case of gaming: the government lets the Big Dogs (MS, EA, etc) gobble up little and medium size devs without concern for the marketplace. Look at how EA bought so many companies so cheaply. They piled on frivolous lawsuits until the other company was bankrupt and had to sell. It violates several FTC regulations but they are allowed to get away with it.

At this point, anyone that still says those talking points should be detained for treason

@@Kilthan2050 So trickle down doesn't work, is what you're saying.

@@Peasham it does work. What doesn’t is cronyism. Statistically, only about 45-6% are net tax payers. The top 10% pay 90% of federal taxes. The job creators almost all fall into that top 10%, because most small business owners end up in top tax brackets even if they aren’t rich. Cut taxes for all net tax payers and it will, by nature of economics, trickle down. The ultra rich buy another solid gold yacht, which creates jobs in yacht making, but the rest of business owners either spend money on things they need or reinvest in their business. Buying things creates demand which creates job as businesses seek to increase supply to meet demand. Investing in businesses creates jobs either directly (owner hires more people) or indirectly (buys new equipment, drives demand for equipment, which creates jobs to increase supply to meet that demand.) My point is that what OP was complaining about is not “trickle down” economics. When the government picks winners and losers, things don’t trickle down, they get funneled into pools that are already overflowing.

Yeah, I am still mad about that especially because of evil within 3. I just can't get over it.

This…is what Microsoft held up the collective industry over, what a fxxking joke

I agree to an extent, even though I recently bought an Xbox One X just so I could have access to my old Xbox One games (I used to share a console with my brother).

😂😂😂 The devs relocated to other studio...

​@@AttakusZakusxbox sucks

The downfall of Xbox One Microsoft made a compatible with a Windows PCS I mean think about what can an Xbox do that a Windows can't

This is exactly why I think SEGA should make a comeback if Microsoft leaves the console market. I already wrote a comment about it not too long ago.

Yeah, they're so different that I have to get both a switch and a ps5 so I can play all the good games.

Sega's more recent games are too divisive for a console comeback and couldn't live up to the standards that the original sonic trilogy and the two sonic adventures games have gotten even generations and mania while good and close to the classics aren't enough for it. MS is on the verge on killing of Xbox. Would Valve take it's place they could the deck is like if the switch and PlayStation has a child.

@@Seven71987 You do realize there's more to SEGA than just Sonic, right?

@@jakescartoons6045 true but still.

only time they tried with japanese games was during the 360 era

Pretty obvious. The Microsoft brand is more like a parent taking candy from a baby, which is the Xbox brand. Even if Phil Spencer is CEO of Microsoft Gaming, he's still owned by Satya Nadella, along with the rest of the higher-ups over at Microsoft. A big tech company that's good on the funding side, but terrible on the branding side.

The Japanese public don’t care about them. None of their consoles caught on in Japan and they’ve always pulled out of the market over there. Even with their newest system that was selling the best but not enough to beat Sony and especially Nintendo who are still doing very well.

Yep. There are several new games I got into because of Game Pass as well like Turnip Boy, Ai The Somnium Files, Scarlet Nexus, and Ravenlock just to name 4 of them

The problem was it was way too low of a cost I mean you'd have to charge at least a hundred bucks a month as much as an ISP charges for internet service

Been that way since the 360.

You never know. someone's failure could be someone else's opportunity to rise.

Soon you won’t have Nintendo and the PC

Can't lose what you already lost

@@shadowsonicsilver6 That hurt my brain to read lol

Microsoft should fix Xbox before the damage became too late or just focus on PC. PC is just Xbox but better anyways.

And then xbox having the upper hand cuts its own self 😂😂😂😂

That's not how that works, unfortunately. If the Xbox brand dies, then all the studios they bought die with them, including Rare. That's why I'm SOOO happy that Microsoft never bought SEGA or Nintendo.

​@jakescartoons6045 Well, in this case, Microsoft would still exist. They would hold all those brands and be able to sell.

@@chaserose5127 This. They'd just sell the ips. But Nintendo probably wouldn't buy rare back. They didn't mind losing them in the first place... I would like to see Rare back and making good games, but the talent that made that happen left when Microsoft bought them in the first place.

Same reason Nintendo forces you to buy two different versions of the same game. It’s all about the grift.

Tbh it would of ended with the 360 because of the ring of death but due to how much Sony screwed up on the launch of the PS3, it allowed the 360 to do well enough to keep Microsoft in the game.

@@Goleon I agree! The red ring of death should have killed the console. If sony hadn't dropped that ball Xbox would have been a goner.

Sold my Series X a few months back and got a PS5. Zero regrets besides cursing that dude with a 💩 console lmao

While every PlayStation was going well even the PS3 while it is the runt due to it's rocky start is more than good enough to still be with the rest. All pses are good generations even if imperfect. Early Xbox (OG & 360) succeed on trying a fair fight against Sony. Late Xbox (One & Series) don't.

@@ogolow570 what's good about the PS5 tho?

@@janitoalevic more titles to play + gyro aiming is a game changer in the shooter games that support it. I’d only ever get a Xbox again to use a Series S as an emulation box

Idk about you but you must be 93 years old to find it hard to learn xbox console names, they’re all different enough from each other for a bird to differentiate them. And the reason xbox didn’t name it’s second console (xbox 360) xbox 2, it’s because thier competitor was playstation 3, so it would make xbox look a generation behind, besides it would be 10 times more hard to track thier names.

I generally disagree, except (xbox one) all thier console names were good and unique.

@ekram1v135 I'm saying it's not intuitive at all. Looking into it, Xbox has both Xbox One X and S and also an Xbox Series X and S, both of which are not intuitive for the average consumer in differentiating their capabilities and generation. X is apparently more like a Pro while S is more like a Lite version, but S has indicated upgrades on iPhones for example. You are looking at Xbox One Xbox One S Xbox One X Xbox Series S Xbox Series X Not only is that redundancy, but aside from the Wii U, Nintendo's strategy was more distinct names, and then usually Lite, Pro, New (clearer if something is newer/upgraded). Even Playstation maintains a clear distinction between generations and incremental family upgrades or cheaper models with Slim and Pro. Xbox on the other hand has a lot less intuitive and redundant names, even less consistent. There is a base Xbox One model, but no base Xbox Series model, and they both end with a letter. I've seen stories of Parent is asked to get an Xbox for Christmas, and they see on marketplace someone selling the "Xbox X" or "Xbox Series S." Not only unaware of the latest generation but the seller also may have confusing wording. Is Xbox X referring to One X or Series X? Is S better than X? Are the ones that end in X in the same generation? Unless you subscribe to the Xbox ecosystem, these are far less clear and intuitive naming schemes.

They did. It's called the Steam Deck.

Valve won't do that, they're too lazy.

SteamOS will eventually get a public release, and you’ll just be able to install it on your own PC. I don’t see Valve releasing any non-handheld hardware again.

I feel like they're more like Nintendo in terms of path. Going on their own direction rather than just directly compete with Sony or Nintendo.

No Evil Within 3 is crazy, but this isn't hurting Xbox. I'm gunna buy one and I'm buying Starfield, racing, Hellblade 2 & Stalker 2 this year. It'll be a good look next to my Playstation 32 game collection. Pretty much gotta start collecting PS4 games at this point theres not much else I want

I think we only need them. Microsoft can go. They already killed Halo and Gears...and so much more.

Halo & Gears are the reason for Xbox to be sold but without them or worsened and unnecessarily prolonged to such a point that it's not wanted anymore.

This whole Microsoft situation actually kinda reminds me of the place I work at. I can't say exactly what company I work for for legal reasons, but I do work at a car wash. Basically, the car wash company was bought out by an even bigger company within the last year, and the changes they've been making have been abysmal and even downright idiotic. None of my coworkers like our new parent company for a multitude of reasons. I can now confidently say from personal experience that company buyouts are terrible for both the customers and employees.

I'd certainly be ok with that outcome now Sega finally has their priorites straight and are doing well as a result. It would also be the ultimate embarrassment for Xbox if they took their spot back from Microsoft.

Right. I remember watching their big game reveals with a friend and everytime I saw "also available on pc" and asked why would I need the new xbox?

Maybe it's because they're American.

i wouldnt even conoare sega to xbox bow, cuz even theyve been making an effort to use their dead series again now

I guess this was Microsoft's excuse to only focus on Windows.

If they don't shape up soon yeah definetly.

I'm still shocked to this day ever since Smash Bros Banjo and Kazooie never got remake or any kind of remaster. They got their opportunity right there but never took it.

For sure. I usually use Nearest Neighbor for my personal retro PS1 work and game dev stuff. But since this channel is called Saberspark 64, I decided to use texture filtering, since the N64 used trilinear filtering in it's graphics, and everything looked more blurry on native hardware.
