That's kinda what Sega did with the Saturn in the West way before the Dreamcast launched.Definitely possible - I have a hard time thinking they are pulling their existing retail presence, retailers are filling the gap w/ PS and Nintendo, and then are going to open it back up when a new Xbox comes out.
That seems unlikely to me.
I'm looking forward to that one
no you're not

Too much company culture focused on "spending the competition out of business" and putting more investment into PR than industry cultivation.His shit eating grin is behind the entire downfall of Xbox.
What comes out this month are it. Ninja gaiden 4 and Outer Worlds 2. And another lame COD.Here is my question... what's their big holiday 2025 games? are there any?
Once they use a Windows version and hardware standard enough to run regular unmodified PC versions then they'll struggle to call it a console.I mean given what has been happening I can't say they won't have another brain fart and decide to ditch bwc for the next-gen machine - but then it really isn't a console *at all*
Mental health crisis. Deleted his X account by the looks of it.S SneakersSO do you know what he's talking about?
It would take both engineering and legal genius to outdesign a Sony handheld. It's not impossible, but Sony have decades of experience and patents that make a truly dedicated Xbox handheld a difficult proposition.Could this be a result of a formal Sony announcement that they will be having a new handheld? Could they have jumped into the handheld with a system that wasn't going to be up to par with Sony's, and they wanted to reset and possibly redesign some things?
Because they were forced to do so.At least back then, MS was willing to stand behind their customers and support their product. It's the opposite of what you're seeing now.
I had 3 different RRODs. Each time, MS replaced the console for free, shipping included. Granted, they gave me another console that crapped out in 6 months, lol, but they were willing to eat billions in costs, just to try to make up for their mistakes. That was a very different MS/Xbox.
It could also be done by Phil himself by paying them himself or promising bonuses.You think Microsoft/Satya Nadella is going to give the greenlight to paying for employees to play games on Phil's account? ...really?
I am almost sure that Amy Hood or new MS business chief will do the maths and when they see that new Xbox will lose billions regardless, they will pull the plug on dedicated hardware very swiftly, even cosidering the termination fees. If it sinks and lose money anyway, why wait. It's easier to write-off the losses till AI bubble in not busted, at least you can soften the blow with free hype Copilot money.I'm expecting this article to age very poorly soon.
2025 and we still blaming Don. It has ALWAYS been Phil.It is astonishing how much Don Mattrick fucked Microsoft. The Xbox One / PS4 gen was the most important generation to lose, since that's when customers started to get locked into the ecosystems by building their digital libraries and shit. And then Phil phinished it off by looking at fucking Netflix of all places and thought "what if Netflix but gaming!".
And even more astonishing is that Steve Ballmer and Satellite Nutella just let everything happen.
At least Mattrick provided his platform with actual exclusive launch titles.2025 and we still blaming Don. It has ALWAYS been Phil.
Don's actions fucked Microsoft quite a bit after the stellar Xbox 360 generation. Phil's strategy didn't fare much better, though.2025 and we still blaming Don. It has ALWAYS been Phil.
He loses his shit every time Sneakers posts.Wtf have you been rambling on about with pete dodd?

It's pretty difficult to strategize out of being buried alive.

Because they were forced to do so.
The RRoD problem was known before, as far is i know.
Boris Schneider-Johne worked from 2002 on for 8 years as Xbox PR Manager and Product Manager and said something in a podcast.
Imagine the shit storm, without MS "consumer friendly support" because of the RRoD.
I had a RRoD 360 too and they replaced it, because they were forced to so and not because they liked me.
I'm assuming by Canadian company you mean ati, but it wasn't really ATI's fault either. Flip chips from certain die packaging companies used a bad underfill formulation. This happened way up the supply chain and affected nvidia too. Ylod and the failing apple nvidia laptop gpus were all caused by the same defect as rrod. Commonly referred to as "bumpgate" if you want to look into it.I recently listened to Steve Kent's History of Video Games volume 1 and 2. In the second volume he goes into great detail about the RROD. Caused due to Microsoft going cheap on testing the hardware from a Canadian company, they didn't want to pay for it and broke the contract. So they did like 10% of the usual amount contracted and called it a day.
They also knew internally about the problem for a while, but their engineers couldn't figure out the cause. So they lied to the public pretty much and tried to put on a straight face. Until it spread too far and was too well known. Some famous guy went through 5 RROD consoles.
The story has been spun in the past decade about MS being heroes and doing it off their own backs.
