    What is the end goal of killing Xbox? Not having to deal with consoles and just concentrate on computers?

      I don’t know. I mean I wouldn’t put it past themto try and merge the whole gaming experience into the Windows ecosystem. We all know what geniuses they are doubling down on the whole slop ridden W11 thing.

        This would be so dumb… and at the same time so possible!

        Execs totally disconnected from the players base having no damn clue how they’re going to react.

        Players are going to be so pissed they’re much less likely to buy anything through MS ever again, but that won’t compute in an exec’s mind.

        That sounds like some exec thought it would work. Maybe they saw the success of steam and want a piece of that pie without having to put out hardware? I might be too old to understand, but if that’s the future of console gaming, I don’t want a part of it.
