This week on the Game Deflators Podcast the guys discuss Microsoft's recent acquisition of Activision Blizzard, what it could mean for Microsoft's future plans in the console hardware business, and their relationship with Sony and Nintendo.
Cosy city builder Before We Leave is now available on Xbox to purchase and also amazingly via Xbox Game Pass.
Well just like netflix the more first party content in there the better value it will have What I like the most about it is the ability to try some games before deciding to own it
I just feel they are too early to the party, had they waited until next gen and made it a staple to set themselves apart, it may have had a bigger impact
It’s an alternative delivery not the definitive future
it's a nice service and will help some but to say it's the future i think is jumping to a conclusion without having years of data backing that up. I have said it many times to a lot of hateful comments but facts remain

are all nice features but they will never be the reason majority will buy an xbox brand console. Actual exclusives matter and that's where MS is lagging/lacking. It's always funny to me when xbox fans will be dismissive about exclusives yet we have over 2 decades of data that tells us the systems with the most games usually sell the most(unless your gimmicky console catches fire "Wii") Nintendo survived without 3rd partyies due to their exclusives yet on their 3rd console ms all of the sudden thought exclusives won't matter
it's a totally embarrassment that xbox one is around 30 million yet ps4 is about to get to 80 million for 2 consoles which launch around the same time. I really hope this is the wake up call(even thought MS/phil spencer have shown they care more about GAAS than actual games) if it was up to MS they rather make only 5 games in a gen but launch them all as GAAS and make as much as possible and some xbox fanboys will claim that that's the best way to play anyway
