Xbox Wants Out of the Console War – Next-Gen Console Watch



Welcome back to Next-Gen Console Watch! This week Daemon, Max, and Ryan analyze recent comments from Xbox’s Phil Spencer, and it sounds like Xbox is kind of done with the console wars. What does this mean for Xbox’s future, and how does this affect PlayStation? And of course, there’s Nintendo who goes by the beat of their own drum. Plus we have last week’s poll results and a new poll for you to vote on at IGN.com.

They don’t want to because they’re fine with their current trajectory. Skipping console war is a small dent in their timeline. It’s sad to Xbox owners but for Microsoft they’re doing fine since all their games is going on all platforms

This was never a war, this was just Microsoft embarrassing themselves for 2 decades!

It's disappointing from a consumer perspective but they did it to themselves.... maybe they would have stayed in the console game if they didn't buy all of these companies that make multiplayer games to me it was real clear when they bought them. They would lose too much money making them exclusive instead of putting it on PC

Gaming has changed and I only need to look at my library that's now mostly digital thanks to Steam, I'd consider the Xbox handheld if I knew subscribing to my library wasn't a thing, I'll stick to my Steam Deck and wait for Gabe to release a Steam Deck upgrade.Geforce Now also saves me buying another costly gaming PC and does its job well 👍

Everything thats great about Playstation they stole from Xbox, where xbox f'd up at is they stopped having fantastic exclusives like gears and halo
@OliverOz2 March 29, 2025 - 2:13 am
It's a box. I don't care where people play. Just make the games available to everyone. The more software sales the better for the industry at large. Put playstation exclusives on xbox. Put xbox exclusives on playstation. Everyone wins.

Haha Ryan & X-Bones👎

Poeple assume its Playstation vs Xbox vs Nintendo, when in reality its STEAM vs The World...
@ForestGrieferMC_YT March 29, 2025 - 2:13 am
Xbox 360 will never be topped
@slipk0rvayne17 March 29, 2025 - 2:13 am

@Ruinking March 29, 2025 - 2:13 am
Max scoville just join Ryan's xbox show instead. Beyond could use some one else who's actually passionate about PS. You clearly belong there mentally and physically. I mean look at Ryan, lol. XD
@blakefromstatefarm2880 March 29, 2025 - 2:13 am
The worst gaming decision I made was trading my 360 on an Xbox one x. I only got 40 dollars for it but I wanted the next gen
@cds8137 March 29, 2025 - 2:13 am
I bought a Playstation 5 and it had such lacklustre games I sold it. Xbox clearly are a mess but I have one because of Halo, Forza and Gears. The only consoles worth buying are nintendo or a PC handheld (dare I say it also an ambernic). I won't be buying another Playstation or Xbox again. RIP. There is no point.
@jalapenolongoria4306 March 29, 2025 - 2:13 am
Idk how anyone can say a ps4 pro is better than a xbox one s/x
@Calvin-r93 March 29, 2025 - 2:13 am
Xbox really has dug their own grave, not respecting the legacy of how they became a gaming brand in the first place.
@newmobile1455 March 29, 2025 - 2:13 am
the console wars is what made gaming great without it it will be like sports fans not able to choose a team to support what's the point then
@javiersilva2884 March 29, 2025 - 2:13 am
Phil Spencer needs to go. He has done nothing to repair the XBOX brand.
@RetroWampa March 29, 2025 - 2:13 am
You guys say you hope people stop with the console war stuff but there is no bigger perpetuater than your website. You make specifically targeted content to profit from this! Pot kettle black etc etc
@fix8tion247 March 29, 2025 - 2:13 am
I say xbox vs playstation is what we always need if one wins we lose the winner would become lazy with their builds not needing to compete with anyone
@GojoRamsay888 March 29, 2025 - 2:13 am
As they should, most of XBOX players are all about shooting games.
That's also the reason why Pro versions of controllers in the market got the same form factor as XBOX's controller especially the left joystick placement.
But other than that all of the exclusives are investing in Playstation coz devs know that majority of players don't play FPS or shooters games.

Console wars 🤦🏼 it’s the last days god is coming this world is dying,people are blind like Noah’s time it’s unreal. History is about to repeat itself
@RestlessRizz March 29, 2025 - 2:13 am
....when did they say they were out? They simply said they want to appeal to everyone and everywhere. Stop making bs up.
@rah113 March 29, 2025 - 2:13 am
Youre making to much excuses for Microsoft... sony always has great games and Microsoft software never made good hardware pleae stop capping
@rah113 March 29, 2025 - 2:13 am
Xbox gamers are cheap they dont buy games
@M.S.GundamMeister March 29, 2025 - 2:13 am
ive been saying it for awhile now, Microsoft at its core is a software and services company. Sure they produced the Xbox, but historically and on average lost money on that hardware, but as it was pointed out they knew they were. Microsoft made their money back in the services not just on Xbox but within the gaming space in Windows as well, so at this point who cares if they exit the hardware gaming space as a console MFG.

Sony will learn quickly the gaming console is a dying breed as technology progresses and they will need to adapt, but in Sony fashion this may come a little too late. I think Microsoft has made the correct pivot to focus less on a dedicated gaming hardware and more towards the production of games and their availability across platforms.
@earlsmith9517 March 29, 2025 - 2:13 am
Microsoft will never loose the war, it wouldn't take much for them to get a proper PC gaming service going. with cross play and more and more exclusives crossing over, nobody cares about brands anymore people just want quality games
@JuanDiaz-jo1rw March 29, 2025 - 2:13 am
Stop saying if Microsoft keeps making great games. I've been with Xbox since day one. Microsoft fucked up. And their ship is sinking. Businesses wise they be able to make a couple of extra bucks on the side by putting their games on other platforms. But it won't be enough. Xbox screwed up, bringing out busted games. They have nothing. Doom, Halo, Gears, and Forza are not going to keep them afloat. Gamepass will keep losing subscriptions because it just doesn't have enough games.
