Oneeightnine, do games w Leaked Microsoft Documents Show the Xbox Series S Might Be More Popular Than You Think - IGN

Is anyone surprised? I thought it was common knowledge that the S outsold the X by a pretty sizable margin?

TurnItOff_OnAgain, (edited )

The lower price, mixed with the fact that there was a very long stretch of time that you could get a series x probably contributed to that as well.

Microsoft pushing it as the affordable next-gen console didn’t hurt. I’m not sure how that decision will play out going forward for Microsoft, but it’s been a pretty effective strategy so far.

dudewitbow,

The only mistake imo Microsoft made with the S was not giving it the same ram as the x. Puts more work on devs to optimize vram assets when vram is the cheapest way to make any game look better to a dev.

I know I only got it because I couldn’t get an SX and it’s my secondary console. I kinda regretted it, but it really doesn’t get a lot of use. And probably won’t until Fable comes out.

TurnItOff_OnAgain,

I’m enjoying it. I don’t have a TV that can take advantage of the X’s power, and I honestly don’t care about super high frame rate for ultra high quality graphics. Almost all the games I play are on Gamepass too, so not having a disc drive doesn’t bother me.

Plus it was given to me for free when a family member replaced it with an X.

Corkyskog,

I got a PS5 because it was either that or S in terms of availability, and at the time people only had guesses as to when the X would be available.

There are definitely some older Tales games I might play again if they had an “enhanced” port. And localizing some of the JP only games would be cool too. I’d love some kind of Destiny 1 and 2 combo game. Would I buy Tales of the Abyss a third time, though? Probably

Nice.

I don’t get it when they rush to update a game that’s already looking very good. But they leave old games that could really benefit from an update by the side.

But I guess it must be worth it.

If your game is not already in development. Forget this shit, use Godot.

Too late motherfuckers.

They’d have to replace the current execs ideally with some software first focused people. They all allowed this.

luthis,

Until someone gets fired, it’s still the same demon in the drivers seat.

They "apologize" about "confusion" and "angst" that us stupid peasants have? That doesn't sound very apologetic to me. That sounds like they're doubling down.

Centillionaire,

All of these companies don’t realize how replaceable they are. Reddit got replaced for many of us with Lemmy. Unity devs can jump to Godot.

Chariotwheel,

Heck, this worse. We wouldn't lose massive amounts of money when posting on Reddit. This is about the existance and viability of development and companies.

This is a huge opportunity for Unreal as well. I'm surprised they haven't announced some flashy on-boarding campaign.

You might wanna fire Mr. Dead Eyes over there first.
