My backlog is long enough for literally five years of gaming.
Next time try to not get permabanned, then you can post on two forums too

Everybody's backlog is long enough. But it's a backlog for a reason; the games are not exciting enough for us to drop everything and play them. That's why they are in the backlog in the first place.
Will God of War Ragnarok go in my backlog? Nope. Will Starfield go in the backlog for you when it releases? I don't think so.
The quality of games, and the excitement for said games, determine if it goes to backlogs or not.
That's the thing, my backlog is getting bigger all the time. That's why his "hurr durr no games" quip makes no sense

Outside of titles Sony pays to keep of Xbox this doesn't seem very likely. The biggest game in the world is CoD and I'm thinking all of Sony's money won't be able to keep that title off Xbox going forward. These sales numbers will have no appreciable affect on the Xbox platform whatsoever. Sony needs to sell consoles far more than MS does so it is good they are doing well. Both platforms will be fine.
I believe Xbox could be appealing to more people if Microsoft re-invented the brand, how? I am not sure. But, whatever they are doing today doesn't appeal to me, and what Sony and Nintendo does seems to appeal to more people. But, if Microsoft did manage to find a way to appeal to Nintendo/Sony players, then it would probably alienate Xbox users.
To me, it's your classic catch 22.
Microsoft knows this, and they are in a unique situation. we'd know for certain If they'd release the specifics of:
-Number of Xbox consoles sold through to customers
-Gamepass subscribers by platform
-Gamepass churn numbers, how many are on the 1$ plan, how many convert, etc
My sneaking suspicion is that the majority are Xbox one and Xbox Series consoles. And, with a $299 console, Microsoft should of been able to leapfrog Sony if they truly had the better offering and if it was appealing to console gamers. While Microsoft is affected by the same supply constraints as everyone else, they are not affected by the demand. Partly, thanks to their split hardware SKU.
The XSS SOC is half the size of it's big brother and PS5. Twice as many chips per wafer, being smaller/less complex should result in higher yields as well.
I could go out and buy a minimum of 5 XSS and 3 XSX right now (Literally just called my local Walmart Super Center at 11:13am lol).
Demand is softening for team green, hard.

To me, XBox messaging is often about everything but games - TV TV TV!, the world's most POWERFUL console, Game Pass, etc. A plethora of unique, first-party must-have games are what Sony and Nintendo bring to the table and both companies' marketing reflect this. Buying first party via established IPs is not the same thing either. With the present focus on services and dollar value, nothing seems set to change either.
I just think there is a place to spread bullshit like 360 was at 15 million, Series is at 17-20 million, PS5 was overclocked at las minute, etc… it is called GAF.
We here stay at facts.

Man this thread is hilarious. The Xbox numbers were pulled from the MS source and the fanboys tried to argue them. Can’t make that stuff up!
god effing damnLol, suddenly Piers and Ampere Analysis became unreliable and biased?Haven't you been treating Ampere's numbers as gospel on this forum for a while now?

The price hike seems much like the $10 price increase for games in terms of what it shows us- internet outrage has no relevance to real world events. People buy those games at increased prices because they want them and people will buy an increased price PS5 for the same reason.
