Hahaha that last bit cracked me up cuz I was ready ur comment all serious and didnt expect the last bit.

[Jigga69]

You didn't know ? Spencer said if they have not 100M subscribers to gamepass in 2027, they will leave the consoles industry : https://www.gamingbible.com...

And 100M is not happening lol.

[S2Killinit]

100 MILLION?!? They are at 25 million subscribers. Even Sony is at 50 Million mark subscribers. There is no way they can reach that.

But this whole thing is MS bs. As always they lie right through the teeth.

Oh wow I thought for sure if Xbox was to outsell the ps5 in just one single month this year it would be September with the release of Starfield and Forza.

Playstation brand name alone is just to powerful.

In many countries the word Playstation is equivalent to game console.

[Aloymetal]

100%!!

[Hofstaderman]

Damn right.

[RpgSama]

I mean, Phil Spencer did say that it did not matter if Starfield reviewed 11/10,

He was right and truthfully for a change, LOL

[Aloymetal]

Yes sir! I keep saying it, the brand is just too strong around the globe and their huge loyal fanbase know that sooner or later PS will deliver each and every gen.

[Sonic1881]

Playstation is a bigger trademark worldwide.

[Crows90]

Brand name is only as powerful as what it represents

[Gamingsince1981]

Exactly , that's why xbox is seen as trash tier to most gamers.

[outsider1624]

If that were to happen, you can be sure certain people here are gonna be screaming on top of the building how Xbox is back.

[GaboonViper]

WOW, i really thought with Starfield Xbox would have been up YOY, the fact they are down 35% from last year when they released sod all really is a massive shock.

And October will surely be a bloodbath with Spidey 2 coming, massive hardware and software sales incoming.

[Hofstaderman]

Not even ABK acquisition will change this....almost feel sorry for Phil.....almost.

[Gamingsince1981]

I dont even feel close to bad for him, the guys smug face and how he just lies all the time, the guy is the human equivalent of bath scum

[purple101]

Xbox down 35%, that's ROUGH

so strange the title of this post says starfield boosts x/s,

but if you read the article it says xbox down 35%

[darthv72]

it would have been down 50%+ were it not for Starfield

[Aloymetal]

Thank God for Starfield then.

[anast]

Negative -35% is the opposite of a boost.

[solideagle]

its better than -50%, so it is a boost :p

[repsahj]

Good thing real gamers didn't abandon playstation 5 and nintendo switch even with big acquisitions left and right.

[ironmonkey]

Oh ms fanboys, you talk and talk but don't even buy your console games and your lack of community support. Forever third place. Spiderman 2 will eat this up even bigger.
