Comment on Xbox’s leadership shift proves it: the gamer era is over, AI runs the show now
artyom@piefed.social 3 days agoThey’ve already announced that the new Xbox is made by ASUS so I think that confirms my long held suspicion that they’re transitioning to an XBOX store for PCs, much like the XBOX Ally

I remember being very annoyed, for years, that Microsoft’s flagship gaming franchise, Halo, stopped releasing for their most popular platform: Windows. For years, only Halo and Halo 2 were released for PC, and Halo 2 was almost unplayable due to Microsoft’s massive cockup with Games for Windows Live. It wasn’t until just a few years ago where Microsoft released their most popular franchise for their most popular platform.
I’m still salty about that.
But, it’s fine, I don’t have an xbox or a Windows computer now. And it is almost entirely due to shit decisions by Microsoft that just kept compounding for decades.

I mean they made a console for the same reason as everyone else: They wanted a dedicated DRM machine. One that they can control from bottom to top.
