But it also means that they can take what used to have 10 people working on it and spread it out over 50 or more. It's merely become one of over 20 other publishing companies they've acquired

We'll just to have to wait and see.

Don Mattrick, inadvertently, was the reason why the PS4 did as well as it did. Oh! He didn't work for Sony. He worked for Microsoft and according to them, they lost 226 million dollars, and Don almost landed the XBONE right into the toilet. The XBONE had and still has a lot of software and hardware problems because of what he did to it. I'm hoping this next console doesn't share those issues. I'm really hoping they don't.

Don's the guy that gave all the bad press saying that the XBONE was going to be online only with month to month subscriptions. which it was and Microsoft put out a patch giving the XBONE offline mode.



It was also his idea to give the XBONE short life spans where the OS locks up and people had to go out and get a new one. Which was what happened to 2 separate consoles that I owned.

Apparently Microsoft couldn't afford to do "undo" what he did. They just did a lot of hush hush clean up after this greedy idiot. They had to patch the XBONE OS with hundreds of software updates.

That's why we've seen so many models of the XBONE's released. Microsoft cleaning up after one of their PRIZED employees!

It comes to no surprise but Sony fed off of all of this and the PS4 became the next super successful console internationally. Yea, it outsold the XBONE because of what Don did. So Microsoft fired Don. Why not? The guy was bleeding them dry. He was sinking the ship and needed to go.

Thanks to Don Mattrick. Microsoft has been trying to cover lost ground. So that would explain why they're going all out on this console. Evidently they have a lot riding on this.

Bethesda Game Studios director Todd Howard echoed similar sentiments, saying that it’s Microsoft’s vision that convinced the company to agree to join the Xbox platform. “Why does it matter where the screen is or what the controller is? There are many people without the same access, and we can bring it to them,” he wrote in a post on Bethesda Game Studios’ website. “Like our original partnership, this one is about more than one system or one screen. We share a deep belief in the fundamental power of games, in their ability to connect, empower, and bring joy. And a belief we should bring that to everyone — regardless of who you are, where you live, or what you play on. Regardless of the screen size, the controller, or your ability to even use one.”

Did you guys hear about this?

A lot of people bought an XBOX ONE Series X thinking it was the new X-BOX Series X. They just got the name wrong and ended up buying a console that is no longer in production.

www.theverge.com

It looks like a bunch of soon-to-be-disappointed people accidentally bought Xbox One X’s

The discontinued console skyrocketed up Amazon’s charts today.

I wouldn't be surprised if they got their refund. I didn't think the new Xbox had pre-orders available for purchase yet.

My brother tried to pre-order his online after he heard that Microsoft bought Bethesda. But he came up empty handed. He's already pre-ordered a PS5. He always likes to get BOTH consoles for exclusives. Normally I just get the one. But after Microsoft got Bethesda, I'm seriously considering an XBOX instead this time. The only reason why I got a PS4 when it came out was because of the Final Fantasy 7 Remake that almost NEVER came out lol.

Just think, if you do get an Xbox, you'd be able to play with me!
