Lmao what. The only reason the Xbox wouldn't be successful is, well, Xbox. MS aren't doing a great job with their consoles, but that doesn't mean it wouldn't be possible for competition to exist.
Xbox has the gamepass to make money.
The XBox XGo, which only supports games from Gamepass and Microsoft Store!
Note: Gamepass only valid for 1 year. Steam/Epic/GoG not supported currently
Microsoft has to prop up Sony to avoid monopoly lawsuits after they bought out the majority of the industry
If they could make COD and Elder Scrolls xbox exclusives then they would win the “war” right there
I’m sure that if Microsoft was allowed to do that Sony would have bought up a Japanese studio with the backing of the Japanese government like a Capcom or Sega. Probably the only reason Sony didn’t buy a bigger share of Kadokawa is because MS isn’t a real threat.
You’re comparing pumpkins to grapes
Sony could be given the whole yokai watch IP and it wouldn’t matter much outside of the domestic market
