Report: Xbox Considering Pulling Out From Middle-East, Will Only Focus on PC Game Pass & Accessories

Microsoft seems to be stopping from selling Xbox consoles in the Middle East, and will only focus on PC Game Pass and accessories.

Jin_Sakai18h ago

Just pull Xbox worldwide and go 3rd party. You’ve done nothing good for the gaming industry.

Thats what they are doing , just slowly like a bandaid, they don't want the xbox fans to notice and have a sook on social media, they want it to go almost unnoticed, that is until they don't release another console and the 4 people still buying xbox products go "hey wait a minute, where is the new xbox, the ps6 is out"

Xbox HW and SW are just taking space at retail in the ME.

lol Sony: locks out some gamers from games because psn is not available in their country

MS: completely takes away the Xbox in a country.

This gen for gaming is weird.

The Wood2h ago(Edited 2h ago)

They're heading that way for sure....The writing has been on the wall for ages for the trained eye. All that phillness bs about xbox owners not being 2nd class citizens......then again, maybe that wasn't a lie when I check it....they're actually 3rd class in the eye of MS gaming.

cthulhucultist2h ago

@Jin_Sakai amazing idea! lets make Sony the sole player in high end gaming video game industry! I am pretty sure that a company like Sony who has never taken advantage of consumers, will graciously accept the monopoly role by providing players with good deals, customer friendly policies and low prices /s

Oh wait..

A more competent competitor will have the space to fill the gap.

Can't wait to hear how the corporate bootlickers defend this.

seanpitt231d 19h ago

This is the world we live in and people seem to think it's acceptable

Cacabunga1d 17h ago

550 probably consultants.
GTA6 is in tweak phase, no need for massive number of people for that.

PRIMORDUS1d 17h ago

Best way to get rid of people like this is to make them disappear, permanently.

purple1011d ago

Bury them deep, plant an endangered species of tree ontop- body can never be recovered 🧐

Don’t ask how I know this 😂

JackBNimble1d ago

So don't support take 2 by buying games... pretty easy to vote with your wallet.

Profchaos1d 23h ago

They also just held a leadership vote I don't think there was any changes

Software_Lover1d 22h ago

I really don't even think CEO's should get bonuses. If I were a CEO and I made millions, I would like to think I wouldn't. Or if I had to legally, I would maybe find a way to disperse among the lower tier employees. Take my bonus and turn it into stocks to disperse out to those employees evenly.

DarXyde1d 9h ago

That would be the way to do it. Imagine thinking a CEOs "leadership" is worth that much money while the talent makes the product.

Insanity.

FinalFantasyFanatic1d 6h ago

I remember when I started working, my department manager used to gift us stuff each year, one year I got a bottle of Scotch, another it was a small basket of treats... But that was also a lot less money than what we're talking about here.

It would be ideal if the CEO could gift a bonus to everyone under them.

thorstein1d ago

Monetary company bonuses (often referred to as Christmas bonuses) were astoundingly common.

The entire premise of Christmas Vacation was set around Clark's bonus.

MrDead1d 21h ago

CEO's work for shareholders and are shareholders they also rely on share price to receive their multimillion dollar paydays and they will happily fire thousands to protect shares. CEO's are there to extract the most value out of a company and give it to the wealthy few.

redknight801d 21h ago

That is so god damn fucked up!! Unfortunately...I know damn well I will be still buying their games but shit like this should seriously have some sort of repercussion of some sort. 550 people get their lives totally up-ended and the leadership get a bonus on top of an already high salary. 25M could set those 550 people up with an annual salary each of $45,000. Depending on where you live, that is a very livable salary even...
