The next Xbox will be the first Xbox that I'm strongly considering not getting. I will be getting the PS6 and i have just ordered my first gaming pc (a pre-build with the 9800x3d and 5070 TI) and i have the Switch 2 pre-ordered.

But with MS not doing Exclusives any more there is no reason to buy any future Xbox hardware.

I have bought every Xbox so far.. bought every one for their exclusives

...but Series X will be my last Xbox

I sold it for a PC - it was a pointless console with no actual exclusives
 
This was the first gen I totally skipped the Xbox and never once thought I was missing out. It's a good piece of hardware but Microsoft did a terrible job with it.
 
Even if MS were to create their own console-like handheld device, it would have all kinds of built-in limitations because Microsoft simply can't help being Microsoft. I'd have much, MUCH more faith in Valve delivering the goods than MS.

It's over for MS. The current generation is the end of the line for them as a serious competitor in the console space.
 
The next Xbox will basically be a pc that dual boots steam that is made to go under your living room tv. So, yes.
If this is true, I'm in.

If not, I'm out.

I only owned an original Xbox and then (mostly) skipped two generations for a Series X to catch up on their fun first party history. I have no nostalgia or strong feelings for the Xbox brand like others here.
 
When Xbox showed they didnt care for exclusives outside some shitty Halos I noped out ... and honestly I will probably do the same thing with the Ps6 if sony dosent change course until the end of the gen.

Consoles are for a good stream of exclusives ... no exclusives ? So Fuck it.
 
Lol almost assuredly not. My absolute worst purchase this gen.

Even the supposed new hybrid machine does nothing for me.
 
There won't be a next xbox ever, it's over for good and for the good of gaming. I voted NO just in case you have some doubt.

xbox went to shit after the x360 that was the first & last xbox i ever owned, can add it to the list with whatever sony blandstation they shit out for the next one.
 
Of course. Xbox always delivers. I can easily see why people wouldn't want to though.

Sony will need a strong PS5 finish before I dive into a PS6 though. They have been doodoo this gen personally, outside of Returnal.
 
my current series s is the only xbox i've ever owned, & seeing as how i now have access to a huge slice of their older games, no, I likely won't be getting another one. & i'll also be holding off for a good while on a ps6 (took me 2 years to finally get a ps5)...

I never had the need to buy any Xbox, so I highly doubt I'd have it in the future.

Specially when in the future an Xbox hardware will be just a sticker in the box of a consolized PC.

I'm in, I love backward compatibility and that's the biggest difference for me, Xbox really nailed it on that front, Gamepass is really a game changer for me and quick resume is just the single best feature of the past 25 years right behind online play.
 
Big Maybe.
All about exclusives, and unique hardware function of any given consoles that's not readily available on PC.
But at this point and how things are going that everything will be available on PC, then likely not.
 
I'll probably get a Xbox handheld if it's a decent step up from the current ones and can play Steam games too.
Probably won't get another old-skool console, as I've built a compact PC that sits perfectly with the TV in the living room, and the new consoles will probably be a step down.

Which platform will be your main choice for third party games?
 
I skipped this generation. If Microsoft is truly releasing their next gen system next year I'm probably going all in. I still don't believe Xbox is going full 3rd party or that all of their games will come to nintendo and playstation. If that is what actually transpires over the next 365 days then I'll change my mind.
