I know people hate the idea of console exclusivity, but without it, that’s what really killed the Xbox for me. I’ve got a gaming PC and a PS5 (not Pro), and I could afford an Xbox Series X if I really wanted to. I simply don’t know of any games on the platform that I want and can’t get somewhere else.
And that’s not coming from a reflexive Microsoft hater. I had an OG Xbox (and loved the old Duke controller), 360, and One S. I just barely played the latter.
It’s too expensive to make those kinds of exclusives anymore, which means they take longer to make, which means there are fewer of them. Sony can’t make enough PlayStation exclusives to justify me buying a PlayStation anymore, so I don’t buy one, so they put them on PC too, so there’s even less reason for me to have a PlayStation. Console exclusives are on their way out of fashion.
The PS5 killed Xbox for me.

The PS5 killed console gaming for me. Scalpers selling it for 1200 bucks sealed the deal for me to get a PC.
The PS4 killed Xbox for me.
Will it kill PC gaming for you if retailers themselves sell video cards for over $150 MSRP?
I ended up buying ours from the local priest. Still don’t understand why he had one when all the stores were out of stock for months on end.
It was to attract all the kids for the diddling. …

He didn’t make any moves so I’m not sure if I should be insulted or not.
