Xbox has been leaking money for years...and the solution was never to port these games to PS5
The problem was always that they were making shit that nobody wanted, asked for, or even liked...and when they did something exciting, it turned out mediocre or shit or was canceled
PC has ENOUGH players to sustain ANY publisher and business...
Just like EVERYONE ELSE in gaming right now....you have to focus on your core player base FIRST!!!! Make your core franchises awesome, bring back classic IP's, and AFTER THAT you can experiment
The "letting studios make whatever they want" approach was LITERALLY killing Xbox
With so many beloved IP's....it's unforgivable that this is how they were handling the brand. Phil and Sarah will go down as the most incompetent gaming heads of all time
Xbox has a vault with some of the best IP's in gaming. Publishers would kill to have a fraction of these IPs... It's time to ACTUALLY use them CORRECTLY
Go back to the roots! Make Xbox a boy-brand. Make it edgy and cool. Use the vault of classic IPs and be rebellious, don't conform to the "mandatory modern standards." Build a brand that stands out from the others. Do things for THE FANS, not for the investors. Make those IPs successful again!
