Xbox Co-founder Says Microsoft is Quietly Sunsetting the Platform - Lemmy.World

It’s insane how Microsoft is handling Xbox:

  • They have their own console and Windows
  • They bought everything they could and now own most of the biggest gaming franchises outside of Nintendo: Activision-Blizzard. Minecraft. Halo. Call of Duty. Warcraft. Starcraft. Diablo. Candy Crush. Elder Scrolls. Fallout. id software. Bethesda.

They have everything in place and are still getting slapped around by Valve and Sony and are now talking about shutting down everything?

Yes. Correct. Because they don’t know what they’re doing.

Just look at how they’ve positioned themselves in recent years: One, we always want to have the most powerful console to be the best. Two, we want people to be able to play anywhere with just a controller and no console required. Talk about a kingdom divided.
