The kids? Boomer? How old are you, 13? Halo couldn't possibly be for "boomers," I doubt many boomers actually know what Halo even is.

Regardless, my point remains. Xbox would be killing their hardware completely if they remove their only reasons that people buy Xbox. For many people, myself included, Halo is why I bought Xbox in 2001 and still to this day. If PlayStation has Xbox's biggest IPs, what's even the point of buying Xbox hardware anymore? Sony won't put their exclusives on Xbox.

So when everyone goes to buy a game console their only choice is PlayStation. And with no real competition in the console market (no, Nintendo is not competing with their mid-range Android phone hardware), Sony can do the PS3 launch pricing all over again. And there is no competition to lower prices for consumers.

I hate to break it to you and everyone else on Lemmy, but you gotta rip the Band-aid off.

It will never be the year of Linux.
