The xbox series x has sold almost 30 M units. It seems alive and well to me.

Yes, the ps5 has sold like 85 M units, so it has the larger market share, but the xbox is "killed"? Please.

No. The ps2 was on par with a budget pc.

Exclusives aren't consumer-friendly but they shift boxes. Everyone knows if you want to play a Mario game you need a Nintendo.

The exclusives ship has sailed for the Xbox now so the best they can do is try to compete with the new Steam Machine with what will essentially be a PC and allow all storefronts.

It seems Valve has gone for an entry-level machine while Xbox is going for a premium one so it'll be interesting to see how it all pans out.
