Yeah but that's like saying PS5 and Xbox Series S are the same, they both run games. I just find it typical that Microsoft comes with a new feature to enhance their BC offering even more, and you are trying to downplay it by saying that it's the same as your TV is doing.
Personally, who do you attract with a console whose main function is BC?
- To the owners of PS4 / PS4 pro I think not, they already have it in their libraries.
- To Xbox owners who already have the One or the One X that does the same function?
- To PC owners?
I think XB is strangling itself right now, losing customers to PC, giving customers to PS5.
Since the other two offers cover the same as you practically among their new generation equipment, your own old ones. MS wants to sell GamePass and Xbox is secondary it seems to me.
With GP they could go gold but currently Xbox seems to me a product with little use value compared to its two competitors and quite equal in use value, with respect to its previous generation.
In 2 years when the devs present games we will be able to evaluate how that use value has grown, but currently it is quite low.
