Are you buying a console to look at the dashboard or are you trying to play games?

Are you buying a console to look at the dashboard or are you trying to play games? If you buy consoles solely based on exclusives....then chances are you never were interested in the Xbox to begin with. Except, Xbox's list of exclusives this gen have all done pretty well to critical feedback. Forza Horizon 4 is either the highest rated game in the series or the highest rated Xbox exclusive this gen, one of the two. Maybe both. Gears and Halo 5, for all the sobbing and crying people have made about it, have also stood up to critical and most user reviews. Sunset Overdrive, Quantum Break, Rare Replay, Ori 2? Banger x4. Ironically, I can think of PS4 exclusive bombs way easier as I can the critically acclaimed ones. Order 1886, Days Gone, Knack, Killzone, LBP3 sucked in comparison to the first two. A lot of current multiplats had to get moved over to PS4 after lots of bitching and moaning. And I mentioned all those "things" because unless you only interact with the console when you turn it on and off, chances are that there are some things that pisses off PS4 users about the way the system interacts. I can think of many things that have gotten significantly more annoying since launch. In comparison, the Xbox UI has only gotten better and better. Ironically, if you're just buying the system to play any and all games the Series S/X is still probably the better buy, since the more powerful hardware means that multiplat games will probably look the best on them between the two. --- Sometimes I say things and I'm not voice acting. <cite>AvantgardeAClue posted [p:944341064] in XBOX Price...

Darmik 09/08/20 1:49:57 AM #133:	I think the whole concept of a console only having value for exclusives is going to be a dated concept sooner rather than later. If PC's ever get to the point where they're just as accessible as a console (and I think this day is getting closer and closer) the traditional concept of a console is gonna die off very, very quickly and it'll be the people who invested in storefronts who will rake in the cash. All it would take is Microsoft or NVIDIA releasing a console and them saying "Hey you can download Steam, GOG, Epic Store on this thing and you can use it all with a controller. Have at it." and that's the beginning of the end. --- Kind Regards, Darmik <cite>Darmik posted [p:944341418] in XBOX Price... [t:78960999]...</cite> <quote>I think the whole concept of a console only having value for exclusives is going to be a dated concept sooner rather than later. If PC's ever get to the point where they're just as accessible as a console (and I think this day is getting closer and closer) the traditional concept of a console is gonna die off very, very quickly and it'll be the people who invested in storefronts who will rake in the cash. All it would take is Microsoft or NVIDIA releasing a console and them saying "Hey you can download Steam, GOG, Epic Store on this thing and you can use it all with a controller. Have at it." and that's the beginning of the end. </quote> ... Copied to Clipboard!

The thing you're missing is that those same "hardcore gamer" types are the same people that buy $500 consoles. Which is to say, *people like me.* It's not like I don't want the Xbox Series X to be good. I'd happily buy it if there was value there. But I'm not seeing it.

Console gamers have their traditional consoles. PC gamers have Steam and Game Pass. Casuals have xCloud and Xbox All Access. They're really not missing out on anything with this strategy unless there's a whole load of PC gamers out there who buy consoles for exclusives and also buy multiplats on it.

My Xbox digital library is over 800 games, between One and 360 BC titles.
