[QUOTE="Robert Newbie, post: 10410817, member: 349082"] I think several points throughout the thread are correct. After the success of the Xbox 360, Microsoft attempting to go completely digital was "too much too soon." The naming conventions after the 360 were "Wii U/3DS" levels of irresponsible decision-making. The "Xbox 360" name made sense because the "Xbox 2" was going to be up against the PS3, which would have been a marketing challenge. Microsoft didn't prioritize exclusives much during the PS4/XBone era, and it's another case of consumer perception compounding over time. By the time the Series X came out, Microsoft wasn't seen as a strong contender against Sony. Now everything's being ported to PC, so there's even less incentive to own a Microsoft console. It's a shame because Microsoft clearly worked hard on their first Xbox. It shows in a comparison of developer/publisher support, and the Xbox 360 proved to be a strong successor. In fact, the PS3 had to catch up with several features. It's a shame that newer Microsoft consoles feel like an afterthought. [/QUOTE]
