I don't even know anymore. This is how Microsoft have operated for 5 years, half a decade now, and you still refuse to acknowledge what their strategy is? As they're spending $70B on Activision?

First off, prove that "almost every xbox studio having studio founders and...
You guys are placing too much emphasis on total software sales for Xbox. And I never said Starfield would sell a certain amount of copies. The point of bringing up past Bethesda sales numbers was to illustrate that their games are hyper popular and have clout to throw around. People will try...
I feel like I'm in 2019 or something on this forum. Software sales numbers have been irrelevant to Xbox for years. Acting like +10M people playing a game in a short amount of time isn't impressive is out of date.

I've had my phone "correct" a word I'm typing into something...
Between it and Xbox? Okay sure, what does that have to do with anything?
Are we forgetting Game Pass exists? $10 on Xbox or $5 on PC for a GP sub and you can play Starfield for a month.
Forza Horizon 5 hit 10M players in a week.
Halo Infinite did 20M in two months.
A game like High on Life...
Pete Hines says Fallout 4 was doing better than what Skyrim did after a year

Am I defending something by pointing out market realities? If anything I'm in here defending myself since there was a thread made for one of my tweets (which was correct) and I got mentioned in this thread for a tweet that was also 100% correct but some people don't like that I'm bringing...
How does my post on Starfield have anything to do with Xbox's perception?
I don't care what anyone thinks of Xbox. Thinking Starfield is going to have trouble against Spider-Man 2 is simply incorrect.
Fallout was a dead IP when Bethesda made Fallout 3 and because of the success of Morrowind...
Insane. Starfield is following up on Skyrim and Fallout 4, games that have sold well over 30M and Fallout 4 still holding a record 12M units shipped at launch that Cyberpunk or Hogwarts couldn't beat. This would be like betting against Destiny back in 2014.
Also crazy how you just fellate...
Basically it's currency and cosmetics for those three games.
They'll never pull the plug on consoles. The market is a known quantity that they can push to and guarantee 10's of millions.
Xbox right now does have an issue with marketing games and it's because they haven't had a big exclusive...
I've always said the Series S is what's over shipped not the X. Remember there are two different Xbox's.
I've been saying since December that the X had been more difficult to find which is correct. Series S has remained in supply but isn't moving units.
Speculation here but would help my...
Don't put words in my mouth unless you have the receipts to back them up. Never said that.
There's a reason Mat said the same thing I did about the X and it's because it's true. Some of you just can't handle information about Xbox that goes against your narrative.
I made a video showing...
Your entire response to me since I've been on this site is bullshit.
The lack of acknowledgement when it comes to public data that might prove your point wrong is outstanding.
Is Microsoft now suddenly just no longer focused on Q4? Despite every holiday that had massive software or discounts...
Just one more thing to help illustrate my point that XBS had awful sell through, not awful shipments in Q4 2022, we have NPD leaks that show XBS massively outperformed every XB1 first 10 months of the year
XBS January to October 2022: 2.8M
The best XB1 comparable? 2.3M in 2015.
I would love...
I've explained this a few times already. There's no bias in this lmao, how would that even change anything in how I do this stuff. I've laid out my entire method, with multiple different avenues to get XBS to over 20M.
I don't know what I'm more impressed by, the refusal to think XBS had an...
And this is what I'm talking about.
Hey here's Microsoft taking Series X chips and putting them in data centers
"From my ass!"
The Series S became more available by a certain point, here's evidence for that as well as just the general understanding of everyone that was looking for consoles at...
What? Unless I've completely misunderstood your complaint, you think my XBS number is too high.
I already explained why my number is the way it is, using Microsoft's own reported figures, trying to figure out where XB1 was, and then figuring out XBS.
Go quarter by quarter for XB1, figure out...
So yeah just ignore it lmao.
I'm giving you an opportunity, hell, anyone the opportunity to actually use the numbers Microsoft provided in 2014 and 2015 and get the XBS shipment minimum.
Microsoft said XBS was the fastest selling Xbox starting Q2 2022 and kept saying that until Q3 2022. You...
Ethomaz, you do know Microsoft provided unit sales up to Q2 2015 right?
Here you go
XB1 LTD Q1 2014: 5.1M
360 LTD Q1 2014: 83.7M
Combined Q2 2014: 1.1M
Combined Q3 2014: 2.4M
Combined Q4 2014: 6.6M
Combined Q1 2015: 1.6M
Combined Q2 2015: 1.4M
Go ahead and give me your splits for XB1 and 360...
Series X availability dried up in December. This isn't some secret knowledge.
Also, Microsoft said they are doubling cloud server capacity over the next 12 months from August 2022, and cloud servers use X chips. That was part of why Series X availability went down in 2021, when in June they...
It's not consumer preference, it's Microsoft shifting production from the X to S so they make more units during COVID. Remember that was a time where everyone was scraping by to make as many units as possible. More Series S can be made per wafer of silicon than the X.
I linked my thread for US...
