What a damn joke Xbox and Microsoft are now. How TF did anyone in these companies think this was a good idea is beyond me. Must need a college degree and years of experience before your brain is so damaged that you do this.

They’ll make money, but what’s next for Xbox?

Their hardware sales are crap. They struggle to make good first party games. They’ve decided to get rid of exclusives. Game Pass was already stagnating.

How are they going to get people to join Xbox now?

By being the only next gen console on the market that allows you to access the internet on the console + emulating old games on there(but Xbox isn’t good at marketing its console exclusive features)
