>PS going to dominate the fighting game market >PS going to dominate the graphics/processor heavy weeb game market >Switch dominating the lightweight game/older gen port market >Switch dominating the indie/2d game market >Switch and PS have way better exclusives
Completely seriously and without console shitposting, I'm legitimately curious as to how Microsoft plans to survive the next gen. Literally what do they have going for them? I don't think they can go for pure power to get an edge over PS since whatever they use PS for sure will have something just as strong.
Gears is doing fine, forza is doing great, they seem to be learning for Halo, they are acquiring new devs left and right and all Microsoft published games will be on gamepass at release, with a plethora of 3rd parties to.
Microsoft learned this generation. They are offering the best service and the most pro consumer positions, while possibly offering games this time.
I'm glad most of these are coming to PC as well, and I will most likely just play on there but if you held a gun to my head and said I had to play on console I may pick scarlett over PS5. None of there exclusive offering really interest me except for bloodborne.
>>PS going to dominate the fighting game market >>PS going to dominate the graphics/processor heavy weeb game market completely baseless assumptions >>Switch dominating the lightweight game/older gen port market There's only one console with backwards compatibility right now >>Switch and PS have way better exclusives subjective

The only problem xbox has is their lack of good exclusive games. Everything else they do better than sony.
Grayson Wilson
>Switch and PS have way better exclusives >subjective Xbone has literally 5 exclusives, and 2 of them are collections of old games. Sunset Overdrive got ported, so that one isn't even exclusive anymore.
>PS4 exclusives spent 5 years in development >Tens upon ten of millions to make >Only sold 5-10 million, low attach rates with few exceptions >Don't sell hardware, most sell to existing owners >Can't be monetized with microtransactions
Yeah, I'd be looking to offload these on other platforms too given how much time and money Sony spends making the games
Sony even said they plan to develop fewer first-party games
Cooper Jackson
PS4 isn't as powerful as xbox one
Logan Ramirez
Yes, I said that, and its less powerful than the XboneX
Price matters a LOT more than how powerful the console is
Hunter Cook
i'm still gaming with my og xbox one. just finished comforble gaming session, some cruising in horizon 3. here's a kino gamer moment, i'm under a blanket and got 5 pillows maximizing my comfort levels while gaming.
I'm sure MS is gonna pour all that money into Xbone and let the rest of their actual successful shit die off.
Austin Perez
Xbox Game Pass. Phil Spencer said he would be willing to put Game Pass on the other consoles. More ways to play, more choice is good for everyone.
Also don't act like Xbox isn't getting games. In the next year you can expect >Gears 5 >Gears Tactics >Battletoads >Bleeding Edge >Age of Empires IV >Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 >Halo Infinite
And more. Xbox One X is the best place to play multiplats on console, and this next year looks to be the greatest games lineup in Xbox history. Stay mad. More is being planned.
Have enough games and people will buy it. If a person sees a few games they’re interested in, they’d be willing to pay $10 for a few months to play them instead of $30 to own each
Brody Sanders
Support thread? How about you support this 4K Xbox dick
You're a tard. In response to OP MS is selling game pass. Mediocre games for a low price. People will still buy their consoles and they can shill gamepass to PC. They will make money. Just like Nintendo makes money selling over priced hardware, gimmicky peripherals and 60 dollar games that never drop in price to 30 million children and man children all over the world. You don't need to sell the most consoles to "win". They only care about making money. MS will make money with microtransactions in Halo 5. They'll make money peddling game pass and if they're lucky they'll find a way to milk the fuck out of Minecraft after they spent a billion on that shit. I'm guessing they'll find a way.
Ryder Jones
Sony actually has to have some games to win any kind of console bullshit '''''''''''war'''''''''''
Ian Clark
All they have to do is have exclusives and stop trying to spread them over the PC market as well. That's all the console wars comes down to, exclusives. Always has been.
>I'm legitimately curious as to how Microsoft plans to survive the next gen They're banking on the "muh powerful console" meme. They're going all-in on it. They already have shown that with their Scarlet presentation. They're dead next gen, unironically. They'll just become a cloud based gaming service on PC.

???? >"fun fact, the most powerful console has never been the console to sell the most units" >someone says that's not true because the PS4 sold the most >point out to them that the Xbox one is more powerful than the PS4 >"You're a tard"
Luis Lopez
>still thinks games being on both console and pc matters The vast majority of console players don't give a shit about what is on PC. They will never play Detroit on PC or play Gears on PC, whatever. They don't give a shit about PC.
Nolan Rodriguez
Neo Geo AES I guess, but only an autistic zoomer would even consider it as part of the "console war"
Easton Fisher
>stop trying to spread them over the PC market
If you left your house more often, you would be aware that barely anyone owns a modern gaming desktop. But of course hanging on Yea Forums and watching streamers could lead you to believe the opposite
Austin Rodriguez
>They're banking on the "muh powerful console" meme. They did that this gen too and failed. Why would they try again?
Dylan Foster
>comparing PS exclusives to Switch not even close lmfao Switch blows them out of the water >PS is going to rule in graphics give me a fucking break lmao thats PC and always will be PC. PS literally has nothing, it's the exact same as XB.
Aaron Mitchell
Neo Geo is gen 4 and just edges out the SNES. The Sega Master System was more powerful than the NES (but only because the Famicom shit on the SG-1000) and is gen 3.
Jace Harris
>Why would they try again? Did you not watch E3 this year? They are literally doing it again.
Carson Roberts

This tier list is shit. FH4 should be in God, FH3 in Top. Ashen should definitely be above Below. Quantum Break should be in Top, Sunset Overdrive should be in God, FH2 and F7 should both be in mid, the rest is alright.
Asher Young
Xbonx was literally their fastest selling SKU. Not to mention that trying to outdo each other in terms of power is what Sony and MS have done for 3 gens now.
Isaiah Diaz
If xbox makes the next console free 2 play online then they will at least recapture their marketshare they once had easily. Gamepass is definitely the frontrunner as the netflix of gaming. People writing Microsoft off are seriously delusional. Typical weebfags
Benjamin Martin
>Thread about Xbox >I better user this chance to attack the PlayStation because the other ten threads doing it aren't enough Good to know the PlayStation being successful tortures you so much.
Me personally, I just am happy to see the Xbox die so we can go back to the 90s way of Nintendo vs Sony and have actual fun games.
Aaron Torres
watching phil dab on Yea Forums for the next few years is gonna be fun
Jace Reed
>Lets discuss what the next Microsoft console can bring to the table without any console war shitposting >People immediately start console war shitposting sasuga Yea Forums
Elijah Hill
The thread literally started as a console war shitposting thread. Like, the OP was console war shitposting.
Hudson Bell
we have that right now and there are 4 games on the ps4 that are exclusive and fun, thats pathetic for a console thats been out for 7 years. I have all consoles and a gaming PC and the xb1/ps4 are pathetic, seriously. I don't fall for ad populum bullshit either because Im not a retard.
Xbox has been a cancer I agree but we've moved out of the 360 era a while ago. the new era with Sony is looking just as bad. Netflix games and censored shit all over. I don't want an era of Sony, no thanks. Thank God Nintendo and 3rd party developers are still putting out quality shit.
Matthew Howard
excuse me, but uh, FUCK Sony. Nintendo vs Sega was kino, and Xbox is basically Sega, so just get rid of Delaystation and we're good.
Brayden Thomas
>Microsoft and Nintendo are pissing so many Sonyfags off How can two companies cause so much asshurt?

This board is seething about Sony 24/7

Are you implying Opie was less than honest?

Switchfags are willing to pay a premium for shitty old indie games that. They're definitive because you can play them in the bathtub with rubber ducky in hand

Here's the thing, most console gamers are casuals. They don't know what 1440p or 30 fps actually means, they just want the cheapest way there is to play Call of Duty with their fellow dudebros. If they were serious gamers, they would get PCs. Only 2% of PS4 owners purchased Bloodborne, but I'd bet something like 50-80% of PS4 owners bought a Call of Duty game. So Sony is going to make an $800 ultra-powerful console(that's still weaker than a PC), and the dudebros are going to look at the Xbox Two and see a cheaper way of playing Call of Duty. It's a big mistake to make the most expensive console of the generation. Not even once has the most expensive console won a generation(Master System, Atari Lynx, Neo Geo, Game Gear, Saturn, PSP, Xbox, PS3, Vita). What basically won this generation for Sony was deciding to release the PS4 at a lower cost than the Xbox One. The crappy sales of the PS4 Pro should be a good indicator that most gamers are not interested in an expensive, powerful console. So Microsoft is going to offer a cheap way of playing Battlefield and CoD, plus the game pass, and I see it as being very appealing to the majority of people who play video games(in other words, casuals).
Nathan Brown
holy cope your buyer remorse denial saddens me
Ryan Harris
If it wasn't for Scarlet dropping next year, I'd highly recommend getting the X. It's such a difference, even on a 1080p TV.
Logan Stewart
if i had the money i would have bought it already but i don't so this will do fine. i also play on pc what i can't on xbox
Gabriel Perez
Uh huh
Bentley Roberts
>casuals Have sex bruh. All the casuals and dude bros are on ps4.
Cooper Martinez
If Nexbox is not more powerful than PS5 its over for them.
