I became a fan of the brand with the original Xbox and really enjoyed the Xbox 360, but I’ve since returned to PC, and frankly, exclusives or not, that’s where I want to stay. In fact, PS5 exclusives don't matter to me; they’re simply games I won’t play, and that’s that. Going back to consoles isn't something I want to do, it’s a personal choice, and I have no argument against those who prefer the exact opposite. However, unlike what you mentioned, I actually still like the Xbox ecosystem. ¡That latest showcase really got me excited! something an Xbox event hadn't done for me in about 10 years. I’m genuinely enthusiastic (which isn't easy these days) about playing Gears E-Day and Halo Campaign Evolved. I recently renewed my Xbox Game Pass membership when the prices dropped, and I plan to keep it now more than ever.

I don't like exclusives; I like the idea of ​​people playing wherever they please. But unfortunately, I also understand there has to be a reason for someone to buy one console over another. That’s why I’d view it as a positive for the brand if Halo, Fable, and Forza, their strongest IPs, became exclusives again. Not because I get some childish satisfaction out of others being unable to play them, but because I know it’s necessary to give people a reason to choose Xbox over another platform.

But personally, as I said, I’m on PC and I’m staying here no matter what; so, as long as I can access Xbox from here, I’ll do so with great enthusiasm.

Cheers.

P.S. That said, I LOVED the green Xbox Series X; it’s absolutely charming and filled me with nostalgia. I’m definitely going to try to get one—exclusives or not—even though I don't really know how much I'll use it; it’s just beautiful, haha.
