If you have a good PC you really have no reason to get an Xbox so I thank Microsoft for that.

Still making money



Sony will win the console war, but Xbox will be available on over 1 billion devices soon.

Google Stadia Just Handed The Streaming War To Microsoft And xCloud

There is one clear winner here, and that is Microsoft, Xbox and xCloud.

Not that Stadia was some massive industry force or anything, but a lack of confidence in the service after this should draw even more people to xCloud as that continues to expand. It is 100% clear that Microsoft would never abandon its many first party development teams, so Game Pass, and in turn, xCloud, will always have a lot of first and third party titles. And Microsoft is in the gaming space to stay, whereas Google just feels like they’re dabbling in it, and their past statements that they are invested in Stadia for the long term now seem hollow.

So Sony is coming to Microsoft to help them with cloud offerings and XCloud is on its way for dominance in cloud streaming. How long until we find those 1st party Sony exclusives on XCloud?

Sony is going to make Microsoft a ton of money
