Today, Microsoft killed the Xbone, by announcing that Every new title published from Microsoft Studios will support Xbox Play Anywhere and will be easily accessible in the Windows Store. From this point on there is no such thing as an exclusive Xbox One video game - and thus, there is no longer a reason to purchase the Xbox One.

This is quite literally the day that Microsoft pulled out of the home console race, which leaves only PlayStation and whatever system Nintendo put out in the next 12 months (or later.)

Press "F" to pay respects.

Either way, it's going to hurt Xbone sales. People are idorts, they go with PC + PS4/Wii U/Xbone for their exclusives.

Now they literally gave everyone no reason to get an xbone, just get a PC and a console of your choice (that isn't an xbone).

Yes, Microsoft is still benefiting from PC, but OP is right, they're effectively pulled out of the console race.

This also makes the Xbox Scorpio somewhat redundant, because why get a Scorpio when you can build a PC for the same amount of money or less?

Microsoft can afford to sell their uber 7 terraflop 4k machine at 300bucks and take the loss.

Sony is stuck with their 4 terraflop piece of shit that will probably sell for 400 bux and they're gonna get bombarded with "comparison pics" advertisements.

Those games aren't on the ps4. You know the console base that has twice as many as xbone? That's reason enough for people .Couple it with being stronger and sony is done

This is a smart move on their part. It's become more and more obvious with time that Mustards and Ketchups are two completely different audiences. There's literally no disadvantage to catering to both of them. There will still be plenty of people that will refuse to pay extra 500 to 600 bucks to get a PC system set up (and that is assuming they're being responsible in financing, it's common for them to get jewed into paying 2000 bucks for a shit Pre-Built PC)

They're still gonna go against the PS4 in the console war with their systems, PC is an alternate marketing that is separate from this.

One thing i know:

/v/ has absoutly no clue about business related things.

The desktop market is shrinking and Laptops/Tablets taking the shares.
The major group of people buying "normal" Pc are companies who use them for work.

So first of all if you have the choice ( imagine you have a job, girlfriend and you go to work ) what are you going to buy to play videogames:
1.A console for 250 bucks ( thats th price i cant get a new XBone )
or
2. a desktop pc?

If you choose 2 you are wrong he is going to buy a XBox and a Tablet or Notebook.

Second the opimization on Windows 10 is terrible, you need a much stronger Pc than specs in the One and no mod will fix that because W10 beeing restrictive as fuck,.

In other words Microsoft wins:
>Mustards: HAHA we dont need to buy a console ( something we wouldnt do anyway ) but we need Windows 10
>Consoleowners: We can still play our games yeah and have a bigger userbase because of shared servers

Why are PC gamers such dumb elitist fuckers.

>"PC Master race, consoles are for plebs. Kek. 60 fps. Praise Gabe."

No one gives a fuck about your stupid framerate comparison pictures. It's like saying black and white movies are shit. All that matters is the fun.

I have a good PC, but I prefer to play higher end games like Arkham and GTA on my Xbox. The only system is better, the controls are better, and buying an Xbox is cheaper than a gaming PC.

I use my computer for emulation and slower paced games.

It's fine if you like computers better, but not everyone does. You are just a bunch of nerds who need their choice of game system validated because you have no thoughts of your own.

It's about the games. Worry more about having fun than what other people are doing.

Or what about we chose pc instead of buying a new console every 2- 3 years like some bandwagon iphonefag, and bragging to others about how you have the latest consoles. Most pc kids came from families who couldn't afford consoles so they played games on their family computer. Pcs far outlive the usefulness of any consoles. The gameservers are almost infinite compared to consoles. In general you may pay more in the begginning but you get more for your money IN THE END

Are you seriously implying the Xbone S can play games at native 4k resolution?

Holy shit, Xbots are more delusional than I thought.

Even the GTX 1070, which is similar in power to the Scorpio, can't reach 60fps in 4K in every game. And if they pull it off because of console optimization, you're sorely mistaken if you think the Scorpio will sell for anything less than $500.

Lol, what? All Sony has to do is write off Xbox as a console and only have to worry about Wii. PS4's been selling like a motherfucker since release, and Win10 and Denuvo have put a pretty ugly gash in PC's credibility.

I'll get the NX when it undoubtedly falls flat and they start selling them on clearance. That's how you buy Nintendo products now.

Except the XBAWKZ APP STORE FOR WINDOWS is cancerous garbage that's try to wall games up, restrict the range of grafix options and also make them unmoddable. It's funny and all M$ has recognized their console is ded, but Microsft's CEO Poo N. Loo will continue to see that exclusive trash bleed money if they try to make it exclusive to the Win10 App Store. Luckily their 'test the waters' games were immense, money-bleeding flops that they've acknowledged they'll put placing the games on Steam/other stores so that's making progress already.

>Sony gets outsmarted this E3
>Media believes xbox is finished
I enjoy MS being the underdog here(getting great deals and games on xb1) but this is hilarious to witness the damage control going on at sonyland.
>>
Microsoft has always been a third wheel, adding nothing of value to the industry other than introducing cancerous ones like paying for online, call of duty, and scummy moneyhatting like exclusive DLCs, timed exclusives for no reason etc. It's just a shame that sony went that route too because it works

>>
>>343755539
As a company Microsoft will be able to reach way more people than Sony ever will, and with more people realizing that PC is the best option for gaming and migrating there Microsoft has come out of the gates running. Unless Sony can offer experiences on the platform with the most people (PC) they'll be left in the dust and failing to keep up with the competition. If Sony doesn't take advantage of the PC market then they're going to regret it.
Their niche appeal being the console to offer weeb games is already weakening with every vita or PS4 Japanese game being ported to steam. Why would you even bother with a Sony console, surely not for one or two shitty games, they can't offer a nice package when there is almost every game ever on PC. How can you compete with that when you can't even offer backward compatibility, face it, Sony may have started off strong just by resting on their laurels and giving Xbox the middle finger, but they've grown way too complacent and now they're going to pay for it.
>>
>>343754909
Partially correct. Missing part is that casual want to be taken seriously without actually being serious. eg: they think they're hardcore when they're not, they think they're gamers when they're not, etc.

This creates a hardcore>casual>destruction cycle.

X starts off niche and tuned, gains notoriety/fame/money, casuals want fame/coolness/money. X is watered down to get eve more casuals/money. X turns to shit.

If it ever becomes publicly accepted that a brand of console is useless, eventually casuals will not want to be seen as uncool, and will abandon it.

Its a fact tho.

You are getting something buying a PS4/WII U/NX that no other platform can give you.

While you buy a Xbone you get something everyone can have without "wasting" $200+

Why do you think casuals will stop buying consoles en masse all of a sudden? Exclusives were never the main appeal, it was always the ease of entry.

that was also Quantum Break. sold so badly (i think your average Nepnep game has better sales figures) that Sam Lake's face is probably locked in the Max Payne grimace.

>>343756605
It might be now, but it wasn't a generation or two ago. Before the patch and update era it was extremely appealing to just put a disc in and play. No driver updates or configuring settings or anything, you could just skip all of that.

Unfortunately consoles are gimped PCs now, and you have to deal with all of that bullshit there too because publishers want to throw their games out into the wild and can't be arsed with proper quality control.

No you don't get to do this. You don't get to say it is dead because digital versions are on PC too while complaining three years ago that we need muh used games and discs.

I don't own an xbox, and never plan on owning an Xbox, it simply never had enough exclusives in any given generation that I wanted to make me want one.

Also I'll never deal in that draconian ass pay for online when I'm already paying my internet bill, we dealt with that shit in the 90's on PC, it didn't work because it was retarded, but somehow microsoft managed to convince console users that it's the way, the truth and the light, despite all that pay never actually going to enhance their experience at all. I don't intend to get a PS4 either for this reason.

im actually really excited for this and I don't think this is them killing the xbone. all this does is enable more people to buy their games being that they aren't technically losing out on a sale being that that single copy works on both the xbox and pc.

I honestly can't wait for Forza Horizon 3, after the disapointment that was the crew, it's refreshing to see another casual open world racing game with promise

>exclusives are bad argument
already been blown the fuck out multiple times with logic

the best games are usually exclusive because the developer has unlimited time and funds
they aren't trying to hit a moving target but rather static hardware specifications
there is absolutely nothing anti consumer about any software company in the world creating a software development team to make an exclusive piece of software for their hardware and the your argument boils down to "I want on x platform because of my (entitlement, finances, loyalty) reason.

>>343757803
I'm not buying anything from them so far. But ability to buy game once and play it everywhere for all times is fucking rad.
