The amount of coping and spinning from the green rat brigade on the gaf version of this thread is quite funny.
Xbox FY24 Q2: Total Gaming Revenue (+49%), Content and Services Revenue (+61%) Hardware Revenue (+3%) / Xbox Gaming made $7.111B in revenue
- Thread starter Puff
- Start date
Mat said subscriptions are stagnant in US… I don’t think MS had big grows and announcing something like 1-2 million more than last numbers should be really bad to them.
Looks if you remove the AB revenue the results are basically flat (+5% in network and services) that shows no real increase in subscriptions.
After spending 80 billion dollars, Xbox has FINALLY managed to beat Sony's revenue ...... from 6 years ago HUZZAH!
I wonder what DeekeTweak was thinking when he made this comparison
Fishing for engagement.
I foresee multiplataform games and extremely poor management.
MS entire gaming business will now revolve around the thing they proved again and again to be completely incapable at doing, making successful games.
Are they not adding the basic gold tier to the overall number? I thought the point of that was to pump the number up
i also think a big problem with microsoft is they haven’t changed management in over 10 years. The same people that have underperformed for the last 10 years just keep getting promoted and keep getting bigger salaries.
I expect Aaron Greenberg to be running the xbox division in 5 years and Matt Booty to be president

Since 2008 really, that's when Phil Spencer was put in charge of Xbox Studios. More than 15 years and the dude didn't manage to introduce a single successful big IP, all while IPs like Halo, Gears and Forza were milked to death and made irrelevant.
The biggest mistake Microsoft ever made was switching power over the Xbox division from those at the company that were passionate about gaming, to the typical Microsoft employees.
You can literally see the exact moment of the changeover. Xbox and most of 360, full of great ideas and games, industry leading in some respects. Then it’s Kinect, Kinect, Kinect, the games dwindle down to Gears, Halo, and Forza, Rare is reduced to a Kinect and avatar support studio, Xbox One is a weak TV-add on with, you guessed it, more Kinect. Microsoft starts their usual screwing the customer BS with disc authentication, no rentals or loans, and the whole rest of the mess until now.

Microsoft: "Let's do everything we can so that consumers don't need to buy our consoles nor build a relevant console brand strategy." Consumer: doesn't buy Xbox console. Microsoft: "We sold less consoles than we expected."

We're at the point with Xbox now where if they made a bunch of stuff exclusive like that user wants, it would hurt those franchises more than it would help Xbox.
Funny that Infinity the other day was arguing that Xbox executives shouldn't be involved creatively. Pretty evident the corporate, hands off approach has completely failed Xbox - to the point of failure.
The greatest irony is hearing about microsoft brag about revenue and being a 3 trillion dollar company and making all this profit but when it comes to microsoft it seems like they are toxically frugal. They cut the marketing, esports, dev teams, retail/physical division, etc.
I’m not really sure what the game plan is for them to remain profitable theres nothing else to cut

Wow...200m...that's like the userbase of Sony and Nintendo combined! Microsoft is so amazing!
