They've put the price back up in the UK. I'm not surprised.... :/

Series X is £414 on Amazon UK currently, although it appears to be out of stock.
The black 1TB series S is missing and has been for sometime. Was that thing limited edition or something?

I hope so. They would have no reason to refuse Xbox games on their platform, and I don't know what but I think that Nintendo did sign something with Microsoft regarding the Activision merger so maybe we will be surprised in the next few years.

Retailers don't really like selling consoles, they take a lot of space and the profit margin is very small.
If a console doesn't sell well their visibility in the store is reduced or completely eliminated (with the result of reducing sales even more). Some stores here have Xboxes in the back only, you need to ask a worker for one.
I wouldn't be surprised if next gen will focus more on direct sales, bypassing retailers whenever possible (Sony already does launch first on PS Direct in the countries where they run PS Direct).

Yeah. Just confirmed that NO Bethesda game goes anywhere, where Gamepass isnt. Phil verified with Parris. Guess that's that. Thank God

It's not necessarily Sony and Nintendo gamers wanting it, more Xbox needing more revenue from those gamers.
Also your still yet to show your source of what you said.

Different folks have different tastes. While those aren't for the majority, some may enjoy these Xbox games on PS and Nintendo.
I still don't understand why you have to feel a sigh of relief with a "Thank God" if that rumor turns out to be false. Do you not want Xbox to port these games to PS and Nintendo, increase their revenue, and help their survival in the industry?

Poor TimDog..I get so much joy seeing these shilling bitches get a reality check. All that whoring and shilling for a brand that has delivered nothing substantial or moved the market has gotten them nothing.
I'll never understand how people like that get such a following. It's quite weird behavior for a grown man to be so emotionally attached to a single brand like that.

Imagine suggesting that the console that's expecting Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, Rise of the Ronin, Granblue Fantasy: ReLink, Helldivers II and The Last Of Us Part II Remastered to come out within the next 9 weeks has no games lolExactly, what with so many quality games coming out on the PS5..

i don't think is about having xbox games on PS/Switch. Is about xbox just dropping out of the console race.

When Phil Spencer was boasting behind the scenes about people who would "Evangelise" any move they made, these are the people they were referring to. I've seen a lot of these clips over the past week and it's clear that these "Evangelists" prime concern is monetising the hopes of the XB community.
The day Satya announces they're no longer in hardware, you should expect these guys to explain why it's a good thing. While distancing themselves from their previous statements.

Does that guy work for Microsoft?
I'm only asking because he says "we" a lot, like he's part of the decision making process.

Oh, shit. I thought you typed the letter I rather than L. See. Long day.
"We can say that in a way..."
So, are you on the Microsoft payroll as well?

The only Playstation Youtuber that I know of is Mystic. But he don't have ties to Sony or have any insider knowlege as far as I know. Just a guy that make mostly if not only Playstation videos.

Two very different people.
One is just a shill who acts as an influencer. The other is this MBG guy.
