@Colteastwood There are few games, bigger than the medium itself, Halo was one of them.

@klobrille Would like a Halo Tactics, like they did with Gears, would be dope🔥

@AmericanTimdog Simple, they didn't make money under the old leadership, failed attempts after failed attempts, finally they woke up, gave them the boot, and put someone else in charge, for, shocking, trying to make money. How? Time will tell.
English
@DialgaMarine92 @AmericanTimdog This!! The usual answer you get from stating this is like from 3 year old kids "microsoft doesn't care, they have trillions", yea right, why is that so, clearly not for being pro consumer.
English
Xbox can’t afford exclusivity; that’s how we got here in the first place. Y’all really want them to keep pumping out games that cost multiple hundreds of millions each, only to be played by a few million people on gamepass. “Having balls” is irrelevant to shareholders if it means their money is nothing but a charity for a handful of fanboys lol
English
It will make that but the amount of share you get for saying nah outweighs it by 4x . Ppl like companies with balls. Xbox has all the food, ecosystem, games, studios , talent, all they need is a set of bravado

@AmericanTimdog CE remake needs 1-2 million on ps5 to be considered a success
English
@haveyouseen01 Except Forza, none of them games have been big enough for over a decade, to the old generation for sure, but for new ones, no. And again, if you have them on PC, no1 cares about the xbox console, not really a exclusive.
English
Yeah but seriously these are great games. Just they need to be driving reasons to own an Xbox.

@MetalSlimeX @klobrille @purchase_jack Xbox is here for 25 years, since 2013 they fucking up, come on, how much time do you need? If your brand depends on acquisitions to be relevant and have "exclusives", you have a problem. I want xbox as a console to succed, I don't see that happening if you have PC alongside it.
English
@MetalSlimeX @klobrille @purchase_jack Im repeating myself here again and again, they had exclusives, killer ones at that, no1 cared, fable, halo and gears haven't been big for over a decade. Again the word excluisves doesn't make sense if you have the games on PC, making Xbox as a console irrelevant.
English
Return to Xbox and console with a concrete Project Helix announcement, Xbox Fanfest is back, Xbox Series X|S feedback-driven system update.
More work to do; the elephant in the room remains as the one thing that actually matters the most, but I think the path is promising.
English
@porkinscopilot @BoydNanookm @klobrille @purchase_jack Again mate, like I said, why would I bother anything related Xbox if I have their games on PC. Helix? Don't think so, they will probs release an App like they did with the Rog, So youll probs have the same interface and playable backlog on PC too. Future will tell. Cheers💪
English
@ane1188 @BoydNanookm @klobrille @purchase_jack The pc ecosystem is so vast 100’s of millions more users than consoles. If you embrace it and steam gog etc you main gain some people there. And retain some console people there it’s far better than doing the same thing again. Putting ecosystems together worked for NiN .
English
@porkinscopilot @BoydNanookm @klobrille @purchase_jack They can do whatever they want but like I said, you won't convince anyone to buy a Xbox dedicated hardware with that tactic. People will simply play them games on PC, via Gamepass or Steam, so I don't see a point in the whole exclusive thing. Just don't want Xbox to die😂
English
@ane1188 @BoydNanookm @klobrille @purchase_jack Nope co-op with pc and let the oem’s handle the hardware after this last one that is how this is going to go
English
@porkinscopilot @BoydNanookm @klobrille @purchase_jack This ain't the 2010s anymore, they simply don't have the brand power to pull new gamers anymore besides core xbox players and here and there some new folks. Ditch PC, restructure Gamepass and maybe, a big MAYBE, you could convince people to buy your console for exclusives.
English
@BoydNanookm @ane1188 @klobrille @purchase_jack They had a ton of exclusives in last two gens Quataum Break Ryse Recore sunset overdrive that one tomb raider pubg timed, starfield fh5. Ori’s. Etc no one cared . No one will care if they do it again and they will sell less software only core gamers will care and we are less %
English
@BoydNanookm @klobrille @purchase_jack It doesn't make sense if it's on PC. For Xbox to really make a difference ditch day n date Gamepass and PC. Then it will make people buy a Xbox, like I did back in the day with Mass Effect, Gears, Halo, Fable, Forza, Brute Force on OG Xbox, all of them made me buy a Xbox.
English
@ane1188 @klobrille @purchase_jack There were exclusives when they had 4 studios & released a game or 2 a yr. They gave BGS what? A yr. They got out 2 AAA games, a new u/k ip in Starfield & a dumpster fire in Redfall, before giving up. You really think ES6 wouldn't have moved the needle? I beg to differ.
English
@klobrille @purchase_jack WE HAD EXCLUSIVES, xbox and pc day n date didn't work out. gamepass and play anywhere don't move the needle, that's how we got "this is a xbox" and multiplatform. I really don't see how reverting back will do better this time. No hating here, just genuinely curious.
English
@purchase_jack Giving people reasons to go with Xbox, however these may look.
Their answer to that question today is Play Anywhere + Game Pass, and that's clearly not enough for costumers.
Sony and Nintendo have exclusive games as their answer, and Xbox should find a better balance, too.
English
@mcquack306 Fanfast is soon, check.
Paid "vacation", check.
Free promotional stuff and goodies, check.
Sold integrity, spine, backbone, check.
Shills are excited, indeed😂😂
The rest, well, as usual, "click link below".
English
This is Xbox strongest suit. Catering to the 1% of their audience to help drum up marketing for them. As of right now, nothing has changed for Xbox. Visible changes outside of “we hear you” probably won’t be seen until Helix is released. Very interested in how this pans out.
Asha@asha_shar
The energy from fans in response to Xbox FanFest coming back to LA has been incredible. We’re expanding to 7 more cities this year so we can celebrate with more of you. We can’t wait to see you out there! 💚

Canadians and their Sports Networks already making the mistake Italy made.
Being all happy and too confident that they got Bosnia instead of Italy in the group stage.

@Senninsage Forza 5 sold how much on PS5? over 5 mill or so. Halo, Gears, Fable will do decent numbers, Forza 6 soon, Starfield minimum 1 to 2 mill. With all due respect, anyone thinking Xbox will keep them games permanently exclusive is just delusional.
English
And if she's going to do what's best for Xbox, Xbox Gamers, Project Helix, and the future of Xbox as a business, she probably won't be listening to anybody suggesting to limit the audience reach of Xbox's games. Starfield and other games are proof of this.
Nicola@Nick_Marseil
Xbox fans want exclusives, they tried to act as if they were ok with the multiplatform strategy, but it was just that; an act. At the FanFest, if Sharma attends, she'll get her ears drilled with feedback about it.

@FPLOlympian What are you talking about? privilege? Play good football, come back, show it on the pitch and there will be room for good teams. Humble yourself my guy.
English
Curacao and Haiti are going to the World Cup.
But there’s no room for teams like Italy or Denmark?
Game’s gone.
English
@Trabis777 @AmericanTimdog If and it's a bif IF they revert back to exclusives, even using the word exclusive loosely because of gamepass and pc, it will be like for Forza 6, xbox and pc 1st, ps and ns later. They sold how much of forza 5 on ps5? few mill? you really think they let this slide for 6?
English
@AmericanTimdog I was thinking the same thing initially, but it’s Xbox we’re talking about, most of their desicions don’t make a ton of sense. The fact that they still put the PS and SW logos on their trailers makes me believe they’re not changing the third-party strategy anytime soon 🥀🥀
English
Doubt it? Everyone was saying why do you buy Bethesda to put the your games on ps5 lol. You seem cool, I don’t feel I’m risking anything to be honest. It’s gonna be exclusive
Trabis 🦆@Trabis777
@AmericanTimdog Dude you're risking too much, I doubt Microsoft would drop the third-party strat so easily, plus people are probably going to make fun of you if the game ends up being ported to PS5. I don't know how you're so sure that it's not gonna happen but I wish you were right, though.
English
@j2001mj2001m @Alize_187 @AmericanTimdog @Xbox @Microsoft Point more or less stands, people abusing rewards and what not , players reached, doesn't mean jack shit if you don't make money. They simply have to reboot the whole system to make it healthy business wise+attractive for the consumer. I am all in for good changes💪💪
English
@ane1188 @Alize_187 @AmericanTimdog @Xbox @Microsoft They never sold $1 gsmepass, they sold gold upgrades for $1, max 3 years back in the day, you was unable to stack them past this
