User Banned (1 Week): Creating a thread to platform war; prior bans for platform warring
With Stadia struggling because of its business model of having users purchase their games in the traditional way and Sony's lack of vision on PS Now and being conservative on PS Now and focusing only on revenue, profit and not growth of subscribers. From the way things are going, Xbox Game Pass is likely going to become the 'Netflix of Gaming', what I mean by this is that they will become the dominate subscription service with the most users subscribed to the service. Why? Microsoft has the right business model and the ambition and vision to make Game Pass a success, something Sony and Google very much lack.
New services require companies to invest in the service and make short term losses for long term gain, that's how every business works, it's very unrealistic to make a profit day 1 and expect a large number of users for a new product.
Game Pass already has a rumoured 9.5 Million users that are on Console and PC users. MS announced that XCloud will support Game Pass games, meaning that games that are released on Game Pass will be able to stream on any IOS, Android, PC and eventually TV, Consoles, they also have aggressive pricing for GP to get users onto the platform and Lockhart is also used to get more users onto Game Pass.
What are your thoughts on this, do you agree?
