@camedei456 @Pawlicker @coolboymew What else did Microsoft had to offer besides Halo, Gears of War, and games that were already on PC, PlayStation, and Nintendo consoles?

It sounded as if Microsoft saw that the average Xbox 360 player watched Netflix, played Call of Duty (explains the whole 'realistic dog' bit) and only watched TV for sports.
At a convention gamers watch, they were targeting average bogans. Not sure if 'tone-deaf' is the appropriate term for that...

Github banned its cofounder due to bug or AI-based automation. He is back now, but for couple of hours, his account was suspended. Yet, another reason to avoid Github?

@Soy_Magnus How are you making money exactly? It seems like you are dumpster diving and selling what you find at pawn shops.

@irie @TornadoOfTerror I still can't believe that these cereal box prizes were the closest thing to an Xbox portable.

@TornadoOfTerror consoles became superfluous once steam became popular. you can buy a closed system with ads, paid online service, and horrendous prices for games, or you get on steam and leave the bs behind

The last reasons to own a console were good handhelds, Nintendo originals, and exclusives in general. Xbox had none of that, and steam deck is working on obliterating those reasons too
