News - Microsoft to completely stop Xbox Series production for the quarter and Sony to halve production after lower-than-expected sales during Christmas

That's what businesstoday is claiming based on information from suppliers. Machine translation: Not only laptops, but also consumer electronics, the demand is extremely bleak. It is understood that the two major game console manufacturers, Sony PlayStation and Microsoft Xbox, both faced the...

This is completely out of hand at this point.

The end is near….

Whaaaaat!? No fucking way that's real. That would be insanity!

Makes sense.
As a matter of fact, I wouldn't be surprised if the few Xbox users left start reselling their consoles following all the bad news from this week.

OK, thank you

 

[DownLikeBCPowder]

At this rate by Friday we will have "Microsoft to close entire company and cease all operations by March".

Lol and MS wants to wait til next week to respond?

This is a PR nightmare.

 

[LakeOf9]

And the source is…?

 

[Moriarty1889]

What the bloody hell is going on over at MS?

 

[thatJohann]

These are just people making shit up

 

[MarkMe2525]

And the source is…?

Where were going.... we don't need sources

 

[U n i o n 0015]

This is getting out of hand

The next rumor we'll get is that Microsoft will start manufacturing PS5's instead.

 

[digoutyoursoul]

Fuck sake

What's the next "rumour" ?

 

[Astray]

Where were going.... we don't need sources

Og article supposedly sources its info from the factories that do the assembly work.

 

[thief183]

And they are waiting the next week to say anything, I'd love to have an honest answer by them, but I'm quite sure this week has been spent to find out a way to tell us something bad in a good light.

Also, of ot was all false they would have already said it.

Microsoft needs to come out and clear things up, like yesterday, because this is getting ridiculous. The entire Xbox brand is tanking right now thanks to social media stoking the fires. I've never seen anything like it and I've been following this industry since like, birth. This is bigger than when rumors about Segas exit started to swirl.

I think the answer is in the cricket chirps.

 

[Roxkis_ii]

Oof

 

[Bert Big Balls]

IT'S HAPPENINNNNNNG

 

[cireza]

Fuck sake

What's the next "rumour" ?

Reports of Xbox consoles disappearing from peoples homes have surfaced.

 

[Mr Hyde]

I think the answer is in the cricket chirps.

Most likely. Never thought I'd see the day but alas, here we are.

 

[Senua]

Someone make a third thread

 

[MarkMe2525]

Og article supposedly sources its info from the factories that do the assembly work.

I'm quoting Back to the Future, to be funny. There is no way I'm touching anything in this flood of "insider" info. I'm perfectly content on waiting until the announcement next week.

 

[acm2000]

This. And as an Xbox user its very frustrating to know I have to wait this long. I'm pissed and I think I'm gonna go PC.

Microsoft/Xbox leadership has royally fucked up not getting ahead of these reports/rumors. Are they not aware how the internet works? By next week irreparable damage could be done to the brand regardless of what is said unless they come with the mother of all pitches for what comes next.

 

[solidus12]

Another day another bad news.

Wow, Microsoft can't catch a break

Or it's just all true.

You never know.

My guess is a good portion, if not most, is true. What parts, we'll know next week. Phil Spencer coming out and saying 'we hear you blah blah, stay tuned for next week etc etc blah blah' did nothing to assuage concerns.
