  So this means the end of Xbox and the end of Windows gaming and the beginning of some… Unholy combo?

  Good thing there won’t be any AAA games that need heavy processing in 2027 between Trump’s Iran war, Sam Altman gobbling up all of the ram, and AAA developers being extra greedy and shutting down studios if they underperform (Microsoft), studios if they perform but not perform good enough (Square Enix, Ubisoft), or studios where they knock it out of the park financial but still fire their staff anyways (EA).
