Greetings (potentially) Lord "Yasuke" Cognito, Mr. Matty "Married a year ago" Plays, and (potentially) Mr. Bradley "Banjo Kazooie can be nothing but at Platformer" Ellis. What is the best case scenario for Xbox going into the next generation of hardware? How do they roll out the announcements to the mainstream audience in a way that makes a dent in the dominance of PlayStation, Nintendo, and Steam?

Hey Dukes, Wanted to check in on if any of you stayed with Marvel Rivals? Or any other service type game that you loved but also felt you need to quit so that you can use that time more efficiently on other games in your backlog etc. Any advice for someone who loves Marvel Rivals but also wants to quit to free that time up for something else? Have either of you dealt with something similar? Thanks!

Howdy Dukes Well I finally did it. I quit GamePass despite defending it countless times to friends and family. But I can’t justify paying $30/month for this service. I’ll do myself a favor and put this money towards the gym membership instead. Thanks and have a “you just lost a customer who’s been an uninterrupted paying member of the Xbox Live/GamePass community since the original Xbox Live beta test back in 2002” kind of day.

Dear Dukes, Of course, I make a comment about some positive Gamepass news and fucking Phil Spencer comes out of an alleyway two weeks later and shoves me in front of a bus with this bullshit. 30 bucks is too much for most I think. I can't help but think Xbox leadership needs to go. Too much change too quickly tells me they have absolutely zero idea what the hell they're doing. Enough excuses. Have a Xbox acting like Nintendo kind of day
