The XSX|S had more games available to play than the X1 did day one. X1 had no back compatibility nor Game pass. Sony fans are the ones who harp on the Xbox not having tons of 1 party 3rd person single player games. A thing MS never really made. Several new games have launched on Game pass over the month the system has been out. Games like war zone run better on the XSX than PS5 so that back compatibility is clearly something worth having just ask Sony seeing how they at least have an attempt at bringing it back to their consoles.
I will say that yes they need to manage game releases better internally but delaying
There are plenty of games that have been updated to take advantage of what the XSX can do. How much does MS charge players for those updates? Anywhere close to what the Spiderman update cost PlayStation players? What games launched on the PS5 that couldn't be possible with out its hardware power? Aside from some graphical effects NOTHING couldn't be done as evidence of the many cross gen titles. Something Sony only fans attacked Xbox for. Only Sony believes in generations? And Phil is the liar?

That's what he gets for being honest about blending generational lines. You have no idea what will be coming to the Xbox in the next year but I'll bet good money it's more than just HI.
I agree bundled Kinect was a mistake and guess what? It's gone! The heavy DRM stuff as you noted never happened you just chose to be upset at the prospect over it actually happening. MS has already said it isn't mandatory that you buy either of their next gen boxes day one. They don't sell just console games so they have more flexibility. I too don't want any of the console platform holders to exit and that's why I support them all. I know enough about them to see both the pros and cons of every platform. I am still so shocked that people who don't own an Xbox and don't know about its features have the most negative things to say. I guess it makes perfect sense.
