My opinion on why consoles will never really go away: While the barrier to entry on PC gaming has gotten WAY lower than it used to be, it is still there. You have to deal with all the different specs, options, and prices on the hardware (or have someone else build it and hope you don't get ripped off), then every game has the question of "will it run on my PC? What settings do I choose for the best experience?" etc. A console, on the other hand, has one (or a few) set hardware SKUs, and when you get a game that says it works on the console, you know it will (in theory). There are lots of people out there who want to get a game and have it just work. I see the future of consoles being that they are essentially PCs with set hardware specs and a simplified UI or custom OS. If a developer wants to put their software on the console, they have to ensure it runs well on those specs and lock down the in-game settings enough to make an easy user experience. Basically, it would position the "console" as the lowest common denominator for PC development. In other words, I just described "Steam Deck Certified," but for the best/easiest user experience, the console would only allow certified software to ensure that everything just works.
@theINQBS 4 ай бұрын
Agree with all this, but the biggest factor for consoles is the lessened capability for cheating!!!!! The PC space has the vast amount of cheaters word-wide and it's become almost status quo to run cheats for so many that it's almost as if it's part of the OS. Consoles tend to lock out the OS and remove the propensity for cheating. Sadly, no game publisher is willing to put out games made for only consoles because they want that PC Money but that would alleviate so much of the rampant widespread cheating we have today that opening cross play brought with it.

It feels to me as if Xbox is trying to bridge the gap between PC and Console and be the first to do it. They own Xbox, they own the OS for PC so they’re in a place to do it. But it’s odd because the consoles benefits have always been simplicity, ease of just turning on and playing. But with the addition of a more open OS it potentially opens up the possibility of the negatives of PC. Granted if it’s still a physical console it’s going to be spec’d a certain way allowing dev’s to easily develop their games to it. But with Sony dominating the console space, they must feel the need to innovate and merge their current practices. I worry what that may do for PC gaming. If you take some of the good of PC gaming and mix it with the good of console…

I think one downfall this might have is keeping the graphical standards dormant across the board. For every counsel generation PC/Consoles have been in this cat mouse game of outdoing one another at least temporarily before PC outdoes then in a year or so. This is in part because of PS vs XBox competition with one another. If Xbox becomes PC there will be no competition or incentive for PlayStation to keep up or attempt to make any strides to try to outdo their competition and thus that part will be gone and instead will rely on the PC industry to set standards for graphics. Not to mention that Nvidia is more focused on making their Money from AI GPU's and have less of an incentive to upgrade their Gaming GPU's

Sony's not going to just sit back and let their biggest competitor circumvent their exclusivity. If they did somehow manage to get bypass the exclusivity now I wonder how much does Xbox get from a game on Steam developed by Sony.

How do most people consume their music, their movies and TV? Exactly. MS of all players know the future will be in cloud gaming, since they have been developing their own service for years now to be the 'Netflix', one of the first big players in that space. There is already a tidal wave of mini PCs and portable devices designed to take advantage of game-streaming. And they ain't $500. There will be a flood of devices trying to fill that spot in people's homes, and Sony will be the next to get out of the console game when they decide they don't want to compete with it.

PC has the flexibility to set up a game graphically the way you want it, and even fix problems that may not get addressed by the devs. KB&M as an option is a huge plus as well.

Consoles might "just work", and that's good for the average end user, but they are far too locked down for a power user, or techie.

Imagine if they integrated a curated selection of Steam titles directly into the Xbox store UI.

It's weird to think about it, but Sony might have screwed up here a bit if this ever happens.

@@theconsigliere8463 In principal I agree, it would be best if everyone can play anywhere and on the hardware they prefer to play on. The problem is, I can't really see that happen. Sony makes too much money out of people using their ecosystem, they make a killing on the accessories like controllers and stuff, not to mention subscriptions like Playstation Plus. They also don't need to pay the 30% royalty that they have to pay to Steam on PC for example. And exclusives drive more people towards their platform which in turn makes them more money. Sony's move to bring their titles to PC is awesome, but again, I can't see them ever going day-and-date for the reasons above. If they did their own exclusive PC storefront where they take all the profit and basically force people to use official Playstation accessories like controllers on PC, it might happen, but I think for the time being things will remain as they are. As for Nintendo, it's even harder to imagine them ever putting their games on anything other than their own console. Xbox is in a different situation, their console isn't doing all that well if we're being honest, even Phil Spencer himself said they're in third place and there's no way they're going to out console Sony. So they're forced to go where the gamers are to be successful, which is why they're starting to release their games on PS5. If they're not going to be successful in the console space, then the next best move for them would be to become a big third party publisher. I have a lot of confidence that if anyone can beat the other big third party publishers out there, it's Microsoft. I just hope they don't end up adopting the same shady practices of companies like EA and Ubisoft in the process.

No one wants to buy a "PC console" for $800 that is already obsolete a month after it's bought, especially when we see games update and requrements of those games go higher and higher so it becomes even less useful in the future.

I think the idea of opening up the consoles to 3rd party marketplaces is a great idea (especially since physical media is dying), but I think they will have to be careful, too. Consoles are sold with the idea of "I plug it in, grab my controller, load my game, and it just works". None of the tinkering that's required with all but the most powerful PCs. I think opening up consoles as they currently stand to other marketplaces will work if the games are still curated as console games. Consoles are PCs are built and programmed very differently and playing a lot of PCs on the console hardware without it being ported for console will be a bad experience. If let's say epic games sells Avatar Frontiers of Pandora then that games code should be the consoles code. So even if you buy from an3rd party market you get the same game.

If Microsoft made a handheld that ran in XboxOS, but could switch into Windows (like how steamdeck has console mode and desktop mode), it would be the most dominant gaming platform on the market.

It would completely invalidate any other handheld, and take so much away from Sony and Nintendo. Why buy a handheld PC that isn't great at being a PC or a console that can't run steam, when you can buy one machine that does it all? At this point, Microsoft's failings are 1000% their own fault.

Split screen needs to come back. If Xbox implements split screen game play again while no one else is using it and PCs can't handle it. There will be a positive swing. That is one thing I did love about the original PlayStation, I could have up to 8 people on one console.

making Xbox a cheap pc that is easy for console players it would be awesome. if it makes it like the steam deck but as a console then it will be useful. heck if they made it where Xbox used full on mouse and keyboard and made a school push with it the way google chrome did they could grow so much bigger than they are now.

If it gets to this point there’ll be heavy fragmentation in the gaming market as Microsoft will try to cater to their partners and end up in a position similar to Google. Sony-PS could end up like Apple if they play their card right and focus on what makes game great instead of trying to PCify the space. Microsoft’s option is great for developers as they’ll have a greater opportunity for revenue amongst various streams whereas Sony-PS would be the simpler and easier platform for game development and their distribution.

An Xbox PC Console/Handheld sounds like something they would do, Windows probably would be containerized, but my question would be how open would they make this... Would it be just Windows on ARM or S mode, normal Windows Home? Windows itself is pretty bloated, which is why Steam has invested HARD into Linux getting Proton, Wine, and so on working VERY good even compared to just even a year ago, on Linux Mint almost EVERY game I toss at it just works but the ones with super deep anti-cheat/cheating issues just using proton. GOG games, EPIC, Rockstar, and other Windows Based software can be played using a program called Lutris or Heroic "You should make sure you install WINE too in the Linux Mint Free Software Store which lets you run software without Proton/Steam". I DON'T see Xbox making it super easy to just add Non-Xbox Games from the OS side, like you can do on the Steam Deck. Adding your Emulators/GOG Games/EPIC right to your Steam Deck Library Page. -

Indeed, it is accurate to state that Xbox is transitioning towards a PC-like model, aligning with Microsoft's software-centric approach. Initially, Xbox is adopting this strategy by transforming into a software-based platform akin to a PC. In essence, Xbox is evolving into a distinct entity within the gaming industry, comparable to Microsoft's dominance in the software realm. They are steadily establishing themselves as a formidable force in the gaming sector, and this trajectory appears to be their intended direction.

I feel like I'm the only one that thinks an Xbox handheld would be a waste. The Xbox app already comes on the Ally/Go/Claw. Why would Microsoft put all the time and money into R&D for a new handheld, when everyone else is selling the handhelds for them, and they obviously get a cut thanks to Windows being on the machines. The only way I see an Xbox handheld being viable is if it is WILDLY good value. Otherwise I would just focus on improving the Xbox App, especially handhelds

It would be great if the Xbox opened up to be more pc-like. They could jump into hardware upgradability sales markets to compete with pc manufactures and game companies. The bottom line is getting the consumers money isn't it? Then let consumers have their wildest wet console dreams come true. You'll win them over. As much as next-Gen as a console can be, today a custom pc is way more next-gen than any console market and ppl willing put butt-loads more money into them than what a console costs to make. Instead of only making $500 per unit plus games, they could be cashing in on the equivalent to a top tier pc with the latest and greatest. Add RGBlighting, maxed out RAM support, etc. Both xbox and ps5 already went to almost occupying the same square footage of desktops, so may as well make it official.

They (Microsoft)spent 70 billion dollars acquiring Activision /Blizzard but can’t take another 100 dollars off their console and literally guarantee it gets chosen to go under everyone’s TV set? What a failure to invest in the next generation of gamers… Most of us started gaming with hardware gifted from family or from buying second hand etc. Who takes a chance on a $5-600 hundred dollar console and a $70 dollar game when money is tight and inflation is rampant?

Microsoft just needs to pull the trigger and make Windows: Xbox Edition. A version of windows that is geared and optimized towards gamers. Have a separate team of people from the regular Windows team that focuses on fixes and optimization specifically for gamers. MS has always been first and foremost a software company. Almost all of their endeavors into hardware have either failed or been pretty mediocre with a few exceptions. They should focus on where they have always shined, software and decent quality peripherals. This way any company that wants to make a "console" or "gaming PC" could do that. This would also lead to Sony and Nintendo not just competing with each other and MS but competing with the entire gaming PC and gaming handheld industry, even possibly the mobile gaming industry.

I've been on Xbox since the first Xbox, if there will actually be multiple different stores on Xbox and the console being just some inferior and limited pc version in the future, then better options are definitely just getting Playstation for console or simply get a powerful pc, which I can upgrade whenever I like.

if XBOX adds a "Switch to Desktop Mode" and FOR FREE instead of some dev mode subscription garbage thing. XBOX will be mine and a lot of my friends first choice. for 500 dollars a machine that can do all Windows things (it shouldn't have to be watered down) WHILE also having "Switch to Game Mode" that does everything XBOX already can do will be a Win for customers and XBOX as a whole in the long run. there's a reason why SteamOS/SteamDeck is amazing.

They wont make the Xbox like PC. The headache of trying to get the games running on multiple hardware configs is too much work for too little profit. Also Austin, its not Ui. Its a GUi.

I say we forget the 500 dollar target make the next xbox a high end pc with a swap-able interface like the steamdeck and instead of taking a loss at 500 range take the loss at the 1000 dollar range so we can finally have 120 fps 4k on the tv

i've said this a million times, but if they make xbox a hybrid pc console, i'm back in to the platform! Haven't been since 360, since the xbox one got rid of console exclusives (day on date with pc) so this would make me want an xbox again! Come on Phil!

eeventually, playstation will go away too and i cant wait for that day since that will mean all games will be released on all consoles day one which is how IT SHOULD BE NOW. Exclusivity is the downfall of developer studios. all console day 1 releases are the absolute best way for every single dev company to have the best chance to survive
