Will Xbox SeX be able to outsell the XBone?

First Year Exclusives

Xbone: Dead Rising 3, Sunset Overdrive, Ryse, Killer Instinct

X-Series X: None

Console Looks

Xbone: Looked like a large VCR Player with Kinect spy sensor

X-Series X: Looks like a refrigerator

Price

Xbone: 500 dollars

X-Series X: Unknown

I just don't see the x-series outselling xbone a lot of people weren't happy with the xbone and might make a switch to the ps5.

People were excited about dead rising 3 and sunset overdrive people aren't excited about zero exclusives.

What do you guys think?

Do you think xbox will take a down turn like 360 > XB1 > X Series, or do you see x-series rising from ashes and maybe beating the xb1?

As usual, your threads are tripe. MS have made huge strides with regards to software in the upcoming gen, whether they're exclusive or not. Forlornly, i'll answer... Yes.

I will go with a no.

It's way too early to know. Yes, we've heard about the lack of SX exclusives which won't help sell the console. But who knows what their plans are for year two and beyond. However, as things stand currently, I'd be surprised if it did. I purchased a Xbox One because I loved the 360. It's not really a necessary console for me anymore as I have a Switch, am getting the PS5, and have a gaming PC.

Yes I think it will as it seems like it is going to have more better games with all of the new studios they got. It also is much more powerful as opposed to everything else on the market upon release compared to the Xbox one at release. It also has a better focus on gaming than the Xbox one at launch. I think many more people will find it appealing than the Xbox one was at launch.

When you think OP's threads can't get any dumber..

@ProtossRushX: sold troll attempt. But obviously yes. The XSX will be more successful.

XSX is all about gaming. PS5 is an unknown right now.

I can confirm that from the minute I open the New Xbox to the minute I part-x to what comes after,the amount Of console sales or MS revenue next gen won’t cross my mind once.

Tho if i was a fanboy And had emotional attachments to a weaker console with less console exclusives,and nothing to match gamepass next gen I maybe ‘in pure damage control’ bring console sales into the equation,fully aware I would be a sad act

Luckily I buy both consoles and win

HAH

"Microsoft announces successor to the Xbox SeX. Simply calling it... The Box."

Yes I think that it will be able to sell more then the Xbox One. I don’t care if the Xbox Series X will have exclusives or not, I’m still very hyped for the system and looking forward to picking one up at launch.

@getyeryayasout: 🤣

@lundy86_4:

I think the series X will no sell like the Xbox one,because there is no incentive,it's hottest games will be on Xbox one and Xbox one X.

@BlackShirt20:

1-I don't think so and is not warranty.

2- The Xbox is all about gaming? Is all about this gen gaming,considering it has nothing next gen specific on it for the first 2 years.

May as well keep your Xbox one S.

@bluestars:

Is lol worthy seeing try to sell your self as been an unbiased gamers that support all system,while at the same time you invent shit about the PS and defend the xbox.

You look quite stupid and don't fool anyone one with your argument,you should post from your other account and be a man.😂

I don’t see why not. They have more developer support this time around so content shouldn’t be lacking, exclusive or not. They just need to have a gaming focused console this time and communicate that effectively when they reveal it.

Doubtful, it'll be just the high end machine of the next set of consoles, and pricier. But, add whatever the Lockhart will be called and any other new models to the sales side of things, maybe.

With more exclusives down the road because of owning more studios now I definitely think it's possible, but if it does I think it will be heavily back loaded after a slow initial adoption rate. This could actually play to their favor as I said before since it is likely they will kind of have a 2nd release (in the consumers eyes) of the same console once the first batch of exclusives hit.

Whether I like this as a consumer or not, it is actually a really good plan.. I give them that. No, I don't like it.. yes, I do get it.

I have had other thoughts on their plan, but another thing I have been thinking of recently is that they probably didn't expect a high early adoption rate either way, and the majority of people want to buy a console after it already has a solid lineup of games, which is a win/win scenario for them.. They continue selling more of their old consoles and a few new ones all while selling a lot more early generation games.

Therefore, until then they will have higher amounts of software sold on their tried and true franchises and they can bring the new IPs once they are ready to go exclusive and they have a higher attachment rate by that time.

The games weren't ready, and they wanted more than just what they already had.. This way they still sell those established franchises at a higher rate, and people will buy them again/for the first time once true exclusives launch a couple years later.

This has to be their thinking.. nothing else makes sense.

@tormentos:

You got all emotional didn’t you

Being a sad act fanboy will do that HAH

Sales HAH

This is what we think.

OP's lame duck attempt at making it appear as if no Microsoft exclusive games are coming to the platform.

Where's the incentive for people to upgrade their CPU's and GPU's? Their HDD's to SSD's? Their memory to higher capacity and faster performance?

By doing so you're still playing the same games; so what's the incentive? Oh gee, could it be a better experience and substantially better looking rendering results? Who would have thought.

To add to that, this is only a temporary period.

You cows keep trying to stretch this number and misinterpret Matt's quote.

"As our content comes out over the next year, two years, all of our games, sort of like PC, will play up and down that family of devices"

That means 12-24 months from now...

lol :P

@bluestars:

Hop into your normal account dude,you are not fooling anyone.

1-MS has no exclusives coming to the platform,future games will probably not be on xbox one and X,but for sure they will be on PC.

2-Well show me how the majority of people bought an X or Pro model over the normal sku and you have a point,better graphics and faster frames didn't do much for the mid gen upgrades.

If i can play Halo infinite on xbox one,i don't have to shell out $500 or more to play the same game.

3-Considering MS Track record i say even more than 2 years to see the xbox one and X been left out,but again those games not been on xbox one and X models,doesn't mean they will not be on PC which again kill all arguments about exclusivity.

Even giving your quote as right,thats up to 2 years without nothing platform specific,again there is no Incentive to buy the platform,which will slow down sales,when the xbox one came several games were only on xbox one,not on PC,360 or PS3.

So there is no incentive.

Every time I enter a ProtossRushX thread, I have high hopes he makes a good quality threads :(

@Telekill: Don't you mean Sexbot?

Thread smells like fear.

If it was only Series X , I would say no , but there's the cheap Lockhart to consider so maybe. A lot of people like cheaper things. I don't really know what Lockhart is yet or when it's coming. Only time will tell.

@tormentos:

Accounts HAH

No idea but I am sure it will sell as much as the Xbox Series X.😉

Nothing worse then
Sony fanboy predictions about a platform they hate.

I don't see how they could. It would be great if so, but very unlikely. Regardless, unless it sells like hot cakes they're not going to release #s.

Meh you have been saying that since 2013,flip the disc side.

What for calling out a terrible Sony fanboy post full of BS. Okay BOOMER!

yes if dont make same mistakes with xbox one

They can outsell Xbox one but need to learn from previous mistakes.

@ProtossRushX: I think you just dont want MS to be successful. Maybe cow insecurities?

Trolling aside... I think Microsoft needs to fire people who okay'd the whole naming scheme.

It should be a cut and dry 1-2-3-4 so the consumer knows this is a NEW product, the Series X will be known to the average gamer as a new generation console but to the average consumer which IS who they will need in order to sell more than they have in the past won't have a CLUE what is going on unless someone explains it to them and if that person tells them hey that cheaper X1X can play the same games then I just don't see it selling as much as X1.

Microsoft is in trouble with this new console... It will cost more than a PS5 based on specs, has a confusing name where people can't distignuish it from the current consoles AND PS4 out sold X1 by OVER 2X this generation!... I just don't see this going well for them at all.

HOPEFULLY they have a Xbox Series C console that is cheaper because that is the ONLY way they can compete against the play station brand, sales numbers don't lie people Xbox is not selling as much as the 360 not even close.

@Grey_Eyed_Elf:

*shakes head•

Sack employees for the naming?

Ms in trouble?

Sales numbers?

Costing more for higher specs?

Special

HAH

Xbox devision for MS is in trouble the X1 sold 1/2 of what the 360 sold and PS4 has sold over 2x X1's... So yes if they do not sell more than the X1 I believe they are in trouble, and MS knows this its why they are putting their games on PC and have openly talked about a future gaming service as being their inevitable approach.

MS is a one of the biggest companies on the planet if you think they haven't fired people for less you are in for a rude awakening if you ever get to work in those higher up positions.

Marketing teams along with design teams are let go and replaced regularly for big companies, firing someone for a naming scheme that will back fire and confuse people is nothing new.

Also yes the more powerful your console is the more it costs to manufacture the console therefor the console will cost more.

Also I know your just a troll but I don't care.

Microsoft is not a charity case they will cut Xbox out of a physical console market if they have to... And if this new generation does the same numbers as the X1, it could be the last generation and they will go the Google Stadia route.

They should be satisfied with maintain the same numbers IF GamePass has good numbers and things on the PC front work out.

This is a lie all companies want MORE. Frome sony to nintendo to MS to apple,google you name it.

And MS numbers weren't great to begin with so they could be happy about specially selling way less than the 360,most PC gamers will not fell for MS.

@Grey_Eyed_Elf:

Ms Xbox division have just bought 8 studios as you contradict in your post now have 100’s of millions of pc gamers onboard so your in trouble rubbish won’t cut the mustard, check 2019 profits hah

HAH at you trying to justify your comical “should be fired” comment,hey I understand you dont like the name or it confuses you but ....no

Well we agree on cost you pay more,for more for you this is a bad thing?its a top end console with the top end price

Me calling your idiotic post out I’s not trolling HAH

Xbox is now software first ,hardware second And as a gamer I couldn’t give a shiney shit if it sells 100 units and is called the anal injecting throbber box

Ms are selling it and making games for it and I’m getting it and playing games on it,

HAH

@bluestars: Your brand loyalty is to be commended, a true Lem, you are.

Jesus I don't even know where to begin with you.

XBOX is in trouble as a hardware/console company, the amount of money and development needed along with marketing to sell a new console is the reason why... But you try to move the goal post by saying they bought 8 studios and they are software first now?...

They Microsoft bought 8 studio's... You think if Xbox wasn't a Microsoft product that Xbox would exist?... No it would have died before the 360 launched, same PlayStation it after the PS3 the PS4 wouldn't exist if it wasn't for Sony throwing money from other revenue streams into it.

Look at what happened to Nintendo after the GameCube, they had to adapt to survive because they do not have other revenue streams to keep them alive if they f*** up.

Xbox is a brand is in trouble, Microsoft is literally talking about and trying game streaming... If the XSX fails to hit their targets after this generation 2026 there is a HIGH chance there will be no other home console from them.

Xbox will exist but home console might not.

@tormentos: Yes exactly, every company wants more. And for MS if they don't lose sales on console but manage to transition a big % of Gold user to GamePass and on PC they become an effective player, that's precisely it. More.

I'm just being realistic. Don't think it's reasonable to expect much more from them at this point. Their strategy is risky, and by now I think they know it's an uphill battle. I don't think anyone is expecting Xbox to beat Sony on console sales and Steam on PC. They should be happy with first proving that their model works then solidifying and expanding.

Yet another dumb @ProtossRushX thread. Sunset Overdrive was not a first year game to the best of my knowledge.

It's still too early to say much

But so far, MS has confirmed one launch title, Halo Infinite, and another 1st party game coming, Hellblade 2. That's more than Sony has done yet. Not to mention it will be WAY more powerful than the One, will have full BC with all Xbox generations, and Gamepass, I'm sure it will outsell at least the One.
