From Jez Corden. Further supporting the idea that the next Xbox is just a PC with a custom shell, which is about the only way a new Xbox makes sense anyway.
EDIT: Also from Jez Corden, Xbox handheld coming later this year.
A windows PC with a custom shell is surprisingly good for gaming. I modified my gaming machine to skip sign in, windows explorer, and a multitude of other services so it boots straight into steam big picture. My Epic, EA, and gamepass games are automatically added to Steam with proper artwork. Feels like SteamOS but with some nice things from windows like working anricheat and lossless scaling support.
How do you skip sign in? That’s the single worst feature in windows.
What the fuck we're 5 years into this console gen? They didn't even start releasing the real games yet. I can't think of a single Xbox exclusive titles and ps5 has what, astro bot and the friggin 17th FF7 remake?
PS5 had Spider-Man 2.
For Xbox Series X there's Starfield.
For the generation as a whole, it was worth upgrading for Baldur's Gate 3.
Sounds like I'm never going to have a reason to buy a current generation console.
Not sure why people are acting surprised about this. The generations usually have been between 5-7 years. It will already have been five years this upcoming November. So 2027 sounds about right.
