   I’m a big Phil Spencer fan, but I think the recent business strategy moves being taken with Xbox feels like it’s probably the beginning of the end of the platform in a meaningful way, from a customer point of view.

   Xbox Game Pass will get rebranded Microsoft Game Pass next I think. I suspect Xbox would have performed better had MS sold it.

     @GossiTheDog they’ve already changed the name to Microsoft Game Pass. Newer subs cards in shops have that branding instead of Xbox.

     @GossiTheDog Personally, Microsoft hasn't come up with a single compelling reason for me to buy an Xbox since the Xbox 360. Literally any game I'm interested in that's on Xbox is also on PC.
