The only thing that saves the Xbox brand at this point might be firing the entire executive staff.
Strange that two years ago, there was worry that Xbox would take over everything after the Activision-Blizzard merger. Sony once again manages to take advantage of its competitor's mistakes by mostly sitting and watching.
It's a very American thing, that kind of unprompted self-destruction.
Guaranteed they're a huge expense, and they have no interest in making cool games or experiences. It's all just angles to dominate or manipulate the customer. Like, just give us computers that play games. Focus on running fast and effective and having cool titles. But nooooo, they want gimmicks and angles and cost-cutting and microtransactions etc etc
That was never a real concern for anyone who had been paying attention to the video game world for even the last 10 years.
