xbox in a bit of freefall, hardware stagnating but even software sales (gamepass) down 7%. microsoft internally wanted 100m gamepass subs to be "the netflix of gaming" but that seems pretty much impossible at this point, the ceiling for people who will pay $15-30/mo for a library of games in NA/EU seems to be around 30m users and its likely going to start dropping as all the juicy signup deals ($1, conversions, etc) start vanishing.


The reality is I don't care about renting games because

1) almost all of them are shit
2) I prefer to spend time on specific games I'm interested in which makes the value proposition negative

this is literally their advertisement on their homepage:

It's a great deal if your content is great; if all of your games are old, woke, or suck, no one is going to buy in . Your hardware strategy "everything is an xbox" sucks btw. Series X was great hardware but you crippled it by makes the S and then failing to do anything else for 5 years while Steam Deck roared to life. Congrats on being Middle Woke Management of the games industry.

Fuck you guys for making a shitty Crackdown sequel as well.
