Microsoft does not give a fuck if you play on PC or Xbox. Their main focus now is gamepass. Bethesda is just the first company next will be sega and many more. Sony is fucked they cannot compete with the netflix of video games. Microsoft is worth 1800 billion. Fuck paying $80 for games.

When can we start calling out the MS shillposts now too?
Literally this. Its the long game, itll pay off after a long enough timeline.
and I'm content with it
>Stop paying $180/year
>lose all your games
That's all good and dandy for them but you realize this doesn't hurt Playstation nearly as much as you think it does? Kind of how like Nintendo still does well despite everything going on too. Chances are the PS5 will still sell well.
>Cloud based saves
>Just purchase the games you enjoyed
How can you be this simple?
>servers have a meltdown when everyone's trying to download the new game at once
>pay again what you've already paid for.
Fuck Sony
Fuck Microsoft
But most importantly
Fuck Nintendo
You'd be surprised. I switched from PS to Xbone solely because gamepass.
>Purchasing something you rented and enjoyed
Ok? I did that when N64 was a thing. You gonna poke shit at video stores too?
People hate on the gamepass, but if you play a lot of games in the long run its cheaper then buying
>180 dollars a year + 80 dollars per game you want to buy
You're not very smart with money, are you?
dilate
>180 a year to rent a shitload of games monthly
>80 to purchase them once youre done renting them
I dont see how this is an issue? I did the same thing when blockbuster still existed.
No one hates it. If it was the only option sure but you can still buy disk games. Both worlds.
>fuck paying 80 dollars for games
>lndustry monopoly is suddendly good
Imagine if Sony really dies and MS is the only one left. Expect games and game pass to rise three times in price
Kill yourself you mentally ill brand loyalist
Everyone who liked owning their games hates it, ie. not shills
The only one trying to fuck consumers atm is sony tho. If sony wanted, they could try and rival this. They dont want to. I hope sony dies, and somebody else makes a console. Amazon maybe.
you end up paying the same anyway. unless you only subscribe for a month a year or something like that. and it's not like there's gonna be more than 1 or 2 worthwhile games / year anyway.
it's the same with netflix. people keep just paying for it even though they don't even open it up for months. i just don't get it. but it's not my money so whatever.
>Owning games
>Ps5 has no backwards compatibility
Look its retarded.
>microsoft servers going down
are you coping that hard?
Amazon can't even develop a gdr game, and Google already failed in making a console. MS is doing something good for the market, and Sony is shutting their pants, and I love it. But the problem still stands: let sony die, and expect MS to set their own prices
The cuckolded gamer 'shut up and take my money' mindset has worked out pretty well so far.
Somebody will fill the gap though, and its about fucking time imo. Who knows maybe nintendo will catch up. Theyve been putting 3rd party games on the switch
Holy fuck even the normiest normie I know plays at least 5 games per year. I play at least 60.
He's not wrong though. People have been paying a premium to play on day 1 for years, and it absolutely doesn't matter 99% of the time.
Yeah zoomie I know you don’t remember blockbuster
>implying it won't cost $30 tops a year after release
>implying you'll want to keep most next gen games after you've already completed them
>implying it won't cost $30 tops
Implying having the naivety of a 6 year old at age 12.
Game prices fall rapidly for anything that isn't Nintendo. And Game Pass gives you an extra 20% discount on top of that.
>it's ok for Xbox 2013 reveal to become a reality because Microsoft can just pay for it to be that way
this was literally the only way they were ever going to win because they produce nothing themselves.
>yeah don't you remember being a literal chid with no large disposable income?? What now???
>Azure hosting services
>having meltdowns
lmao
This ain't Nintando servers
>they won't increase the price when every retard who bought into instant gratification needs it to keep playing their library!
They’re not shills they’re doing it for free. You can get GP for three years for $150 if you do the gold + $1 thing. There are ways to get it for even less involving the international market. This won’t last for much longer obviously but that’s tremendous value at present. It cannot be denied. And you can play on a smart phone streaming if you want. It’s not limited to Xbox but also to some extent available in a form on PC. People who buy digital games won’t have any issue in buying subscriptions like this. If you want to buy anything you get 20% off of the game too. Digital but still.
