Look at these dudes justifying pirating Death Stranding 2 before the official PC launch. The entitlement is crazy.


TheGameVerse@TheGameVerse
🚨 Death Stranding 2 has leaked and is being pirated even before its PC release 🏴☠️ The game officially launches tomorrow.

@jimmywoohh It won't, yer right.
However, if me shedding some light here and there helps someone out, then great. 👍
I receive immense positive feedback on this often.

Open Letter to Microsoft Gaming Leadership: Save the Xbox Before It’s Too Late
@Xbox @AshaSharma @Microsoft @XboxP3 @sarahbond @PhilSpencer
Dear Xbox Leadership,
I’m writing this as a long-time fan who grew up with the Xbox brand — from the original Xbox to the peak of the 360 era, when exclusives like Halo, Gears of War, and Forza defined what a console could be. I believed in Xbox because it had identity, value, and a reason to own the hardware.
But in 2026, the reality is stark and painful. Xbox Series X|S has sold only ~34-35 million units cumulatively (per VGChartz and analyst estimates as of early 2026), trailing far behind PS5’s 92+ million installed base. Hardware revenue has declined for years straight: -32% YoY in Q2 FY26, -29% in Q1, -22% in Q4 2025 — a consistent bloodbath that shows no sign of stopping.
The multi-platform strategy (ports to PS5/Switch) was sold as a way to “maximize reach,” but the results tell a different story:
• Forza Horizon 5 on PS5: >5 million copies sold (Alinea Analytics, Jan 2026), generating >$300M extra revenue. The one clear win — but it’s an accessible, open-world racer that appeals broadly.
• Sea of Thieves on PS5: ~1-2.5 million copies (estimates 2024-2026), solid for multiplayer fun.
• Gears of War: Reloaded on PS5: only ~259k-572k copies (Alinea, 2025-2026 data). A core pillar IP — one of Xbox’s most iconic, critically acclaimed franchises — barely moved the needle on a platform with 90M+ users. Penetração <1%. Ridiculous.
• Other ports like Hi-Fi Rush (~137k), Hellblade 2 (~50k), Indiana Jones (~491k initial): flops or mediocre at best.
These numbers prove the point: the PS audience doesn’t crave most Xbox core IPs in mass scale. They buy when it’s casual/fun (Forza Horizon), not hardcore pillars (Gears, Halo-style shooters). By porting, Microsoft dilutes Xbox’s value — why buy a Series X|S when “exclusives” are on PS5? It turns Xbox into a second-class publisher feeding Sony’s ecosystem, making us feel like “vaquinha da Sony.”
Meanwhile, the portfolio is gold: Activision Blizzard (CoD, WoW, Diablo), Bethesda (Elder Scrolls, Fallout), Obsidian, Playground — enough firepower to dominate with true exclusives that sell hardware, build loyalty, and create cultural buzz. But instead of protecting these pillars (like Sony does with God of War, Last of Us), ports continue (Fable day-one multi in 2026, Starfield rumors).
Project Helix (next-gen, alpha kits 2027) as a hybrid PC/console? It sounds innovative, but it reinforces “Xbox everywhere” over “Xbox unique.” If the new console runs PC games natively, why own hardware at all? This risks accelerating irrelevance — Xbox One sold 59M (flop), this gen ~35M and dying, next gen launching ~2027. At this rate, it won’t even match Xbox One’s lifecycle. Two more generations? Doubtful — the brand could fade as a console entirely.
What Microsoft should do now:
• Stop ports of first-party pillars to rivals. Halo, Gears, Forza Motorsport, Fallout, Fable — keep them Xbox/PC exclusive (Play Anywhere is great; keep it).
• End Day One on Game Pass for major titles — let games sell full price first to build value and revenue direct, like Nintendo does.
• Invest in aggressive marketing: global campaigns, partnerships with YouTubers who love Xbox (not generalists), hype exclusives that justify the hardware.
• Focus on identity: rebuild the “Xbox for gamers” vibe of the 360 era — exclusives hardcore, innovation in hardware, not dilution.
• Use the portfolio wisely: make Activision/Bethesda/Obsidian games drive Xbox sales, not subsidize competitors.
If nothing changes, Xbox as a console brand won’t survive beyond the next cycle. It’s not too late — but time is running out. Listen to core fans. Return to roots. Give Xbox value again.
We want to believe. Prove us right.
A concerned Xbox fan since day one.

@jimmywoohh If they could stop fumbling rhe bag 24/7, I wouldn't have to.
If the Xbox eccentrics would stop hrifting, misleading, and gaslighting, I wouldn't have to talk about it.
Not sure if yer new here, but that is my deal. Ousting the bullshit.

@ThatGenericEric More to come i am sure!
I will be using your vid!

@Xvault2 I dump 160 receipts on these dorks and you used none of them. 😭😭😭
English

@Xvault2 Bro I don’t even know who that is
I’m just saying it’s three years ago — biggest thing that pops out so I posted it.
You okay?
English

@TopTierSyndrome I can give you 20 more just from 4 months ago, but go ahead and white knight the fraud.
English

@ItsMeTheMayor Weird, you follow Destin who is actually much, much worse. Loes, gaslights, etc.
But me showing facts and receipts = "How dare you!!!"
English

@Corvusmd07 @halcyonorder Not false.
Cope more, ya whine tit. 😭😭😭
English

@Xvault2 @halcyonorder False, all the PS fanboy chatter about this is proving the opposite. When Starfield drops on PS, it will be the best game on PS all gen.
There are no PS exclusives that Xbox only gamers care to play. All the best games on PS, are Xbox games
English

@halcyonorder Saying slop is referring to a very large chunk of the multi platform games.
Not all.
Again, sorry you dislike facts.
Take it up on a Reddit thread.
English

@Xvault2 Like I said, they're a method of console developers avoiding having to compete at a hardware level.
And it's ludicrous to call none exclusive "multiplat slop" the majority of the most influential games of all time were not artificially exclusive to a platform.
English

@halcyonorder the safest. And they give each machine a personality worth caring about.
English

@halcyonorder Exclusives aren’t just “console wars nonsense.” They are the economic and creative oxygen of the console business model. They make platforms fight for your money instead of coasting on generic multiplat slop. They let developers make the best possible version of a game instead of
