Cloud gaming is this era's game changer. Gamers aren't stuck having to buy a console to play their games, if they don't want to, or wait until they get home to play if they're on a trip.
If Cloud gaming is so important then sounds like the console war has been won by Google with the Google Stadia.
didn’t the absolutely shit tier tech at launch play a huge part in stadia’s demise
that and also the fact that you had to actually buy your games individually?
I’ve heard people say that stadia has gotten pretty good recently but the launch sucked immensely so its fate is pretty much sealed
also, as someone who lives in a small eastern european country, I absolutely do not want cloud gaming to become the dominant form of playing video games
at least in the next 5 years

The Nintendo Switch has sold over 92 million units so far. Microsoft's best selling game console, the 360, sold a mere 84 million units. If the PS5 outselling Microsoft's bestselling console will win Microsoft the console war then... it could happen, no guarantees but so far even the worst selling Playstation still outsold the best selling xbox so yeah there's a decent chance that Microsoft "wins" the console war by that metric.
I think you're projecting your personal hatred of Nintendo onto everyone else. If Nintendo is only kept alive by a small collection of dedicated customers then no Xbox has ever attracted anything more than a small collection of customers.
Microsoft's future in the gaming industry isn't the Xbox. It's Game Pass. Xbox is just one medium among several that can utilize Game Pass.
i’d be surprised if microsoft is currently making profit off of game pass

As opposed to consoles, where developers make money hand over fist, right?
It's early days yet for Game Pass. Profits will come as the service gains subscribers.
Also, what is NM doing? Worst play I’ve ever seen.
I can't remember the last N_M post that wasn't bland, unimaginative and lame. Some shitposters are at least somewhat funny. You are the epitomy of the type of poster that nobody would miss if you were to suddenly disappear. You never add anything of value.
I'm guessing you haven't read the game and probably never will? Why even sign up to play?

cloud gaming is probably the future.
so this whole "which console sold more" is like an argument that only held water in past decades.
It seems like the future to winning the console war, is to not care about the console. All gamers will now cry endlessly that their fav machine is irrelevant.

his first post in the scum PT was "yes I rolled scum!"
I decided to post "haha just don't post that in the main thread", but to get up to date on the main thread first.

In other news, I just finished a playthrough of Cyberpunk 2077 with a female V, and lost ALL respect for Judy for leaving V right before her swan song.
Instead of letting a terminally ill person that she supposedly cared about have the small comfort of her support for the short time it takes to roll credits, just knowing that she was home for her, she abandons her when she's needed the most.
