Throw7

When you buy a game digitally, both parties agree to a transaction. If you think it's unfair, at worst it's one party taking advantage of the other. If you think that justifies you stealing, you're actually worse than what you're opposing, and so deeply stupid that it scares me.

@YahyaStillGamin I don't need receipts. I'm talking about how reality works, not about some event that needs proof of whether it happened. And I'm not going in circles. I made a statement and haven't budged from it. You obviously have an intellectual deficit. You're a bot or an idiot. I'm done.

@ThrowMe7 Mr nice guy, you still didn't show any receipts from your end You just keep going in circles

Game Pass will be studied for decades as the worst business move in gaming history. It attempted to force an entire industry to adopt a business model that served no one but Microsoft. Thankfully their greed is only eclipsed by their incompetence.

@YahyaStillGamin Buddy, I'm going to be as nice as possible. Revenue and profitability are not the same thing. Infinite revenue means nothing if you're losing money. Good luck.

@ThrowMe7 Oh me backup? Me???? Oh buddy I got the receipts right here Here is the Q4 for Xbox, last 2 years, it clearly shows gaming revenue increased mostly in software, while hardware kept nose dividing

@YahyaStillGamin I see you didn't even bother to back up your claim that I moved goalposts. You're too dumb or too dishonest to even have this conversation.

@ThrowMe7 You didn't point anything out Just another guy who repeats what others tell him to repeat lol Gamepass model saved the Xbox One & Series It was doing fine until MS decided to increase the price on everything Xbox releasing games on Playstation was also a very profitable move

@YahyaStillGamin I pointed out that Game Pass loses money and could not have saved Xbox, by definition. You brought up revenue as if that means something. Well done, you made more money by losing money at a faster rate. Explain what goalpost I moved. I'll wait.

@ThrowMe7 'Software was up? Meaning what?" Right on queue lol Bad faith argument form the start

@YahyaStillGamin Software was up? Meaning what? It was generating more revenue? That happens when you're buying whole publishers with money from the parent company. But revenue is meaningless unless it's profitable. "in a typical year, we lost 64 cents for every dollar we invested" Try again.

@ThrowMe7 We seen the annual reports lol Software was always up, hardware wasShit You educate yourself

@Jasonas62019111 "Still more money than what they would make just selling exclusives" - no, but good try. Revenue is meaningless unless it's profitable. Well done, you made more money by losing money at a faster rate. It's time you take a seat, dude. It's clear you don't understand anything.

@ThrowMe7 Still more money than what they would make just selling exclusives 🤡 Like I said gamepass came in because exclusives ain’t selling even Sony is struggling the goal is to release games a lot quicker than 6 years Attachment rates on Sony exclusives are pathetic

@ShadowxElsa Lol, nice deflection instead of addressing the point. But don't you worry, I'm sure they'll gut one of the studios you like as well.

@Jasonas62019111 You're so eloquent. Even if we take your half a billion amount at face value and every dollar went to pay off the $68.7 billion they spent on Activision, it would take over 11 years to pay it off. And that's pretending all the other expenses don't exist. The math isn't mathing.

@ThrowMe7 They lost money but it wasn’t from gamepass ya flog why do think subscription came in because exclusives don’t make enough money And that’s not just Xbox sony doing there ass from triple a games as well That’s why they are cutting out retail

@Tesla5678180569 So you're declining to do the math? Not sure where woke or broke entered the arena, but you're wrong about both. Seems to be a pattern for you. You'll get something right eventually but do remember that coincidence can masquerade as competence.

@ThrowMe7 Learn reading, you woke and broke Sonie sycophant

@Tesla5678180569 As soon as I saw "Sonie" I knew I was in for a special one. You want to do the math on studio closures again? Are you capable of counting on both hands?

@ThrowMe7 lol... why then Sonie closed more Studios then MS without smth like Gamepass?

@ShadowxElsa Just like a drug dealer handing out cheap samples to get the addicts hooked. I hope you enjoyed those $1 deals. Most of id studio was just let go. But hey, a deal is a deal, right? Can't wait to see the next Doom...

@seth_man "in a typical year, we lost 64 cents for every dollar we invested" - you're right that they overspent but how do you get from losing money to it saving Xbox? Also, if they overspent that badly and still couldn't attract an audience... you can fill in the rest I hope.

@ThrowMe7 It’s literally what saved Xbox from shutting down after the Xbox One. The issue isn’t Game Pass, the issue was overspending on studios.

@KingDudley_XBOX I feel almost bad even replying to you with the current Xbox news. It's too easy. I pass.

@ThrowMe7 I think its awesome. More people should use it. Y'all dont want to play these new games coming out? Here is ober 50 and 8 first party coming in the next 18 months. x.com/KingDudley_XBO…

@FightFireWithF4 "It attempted to force" - since you seem to have reading comprehension issues I'll point out that the key word here is attempted. You're correct that they didn't force anyone, but they tried. They simply failed. "Thankfully their greed is only eclipsed by their incompetence."

@ThrowMe7 It has forced no one to adopt that business model at all... Which is why games like the new metro were at their showcase but not on gamepass...

@lokey478 No, it fooled people into thinking it was a good deal in the same way a drug dealer hooks a drug addict. Micro-transactions and F2P are terrible but they would have looked cute in a world where Game Pass succeeded and became the dominant business model.

@ThrowMe7 Gamepass served the consumer. Also "worst move" you're really not going to rank Microtransactions or Free 2 Play games as worst business moves?

@YahyaStillGamin "in a typical year, we lost 64 cents for every dollar we invested" - nice try. Having a parent company that's one of the richest in human history is what kept Xbox alive. Feel free to try again.

@ThrowMe7 It's literally what kept Xbox alive lol

@SpaceMonkey4K What about it? Happy to dismantle your clueless opinion as well.

@ThrowMe7 How about PlayStation+?

@HunterChidester Remind me where I stated that all subscriptions are inherently bad? You do realize different subscription services operate in different ways, right? Try again, bud.

@ThrowMe7 What? You know Sony started the subscription/streaming model right??

@joe_briscomb You really comparing a couple closures to the endless slaughter happening with Xbox? Try again after you've learned basic discernment.

@ThrowMe7 So what’s the reason for all the PS layoffs and closures , they don’t do day and date on PS+ , do PlayStation players not buy games? insider-gaming.com/every-playstat…
